Stupid, crappy, !@$# purple flowers!

[Deathbliss]

OK, so there are these flowers you encounter as you get further along the game. Let me send out a spolier alert to those not further along in the game - you may not want to read any further.

For those like myelf dealing with these things I have a question. Is there ANY WAY AT ALL to negate their sleep spell? If not I want to meet the stupid idiot that designed these so that I can beat the living crap out of them! I mean not only can they attack you while you stand there like an idiot nutil you die; making you a ghost that is helpless to do anything, but telling your comrade to perform First Aid! almost never works. ON TOP OF THAT, you can't specifically tell your partner to resurrect you. So you get to sit there and watch all your hard work go down the flusher, because your AI partner just sucks. It doesn't matter how good of equipment you give them - you still can't depend on them. I'm getting sick of this, so I want to know if there is any way to negate this sleep spell and where I would get this item, spell, potion - whatever it may be. Why don't game developers study each other's work and learn from it? They could have at least adapted in part the Final Fantasy series way of dealing this - making so if you get hit a certain number of times you wake up and can fight again (in Final Fantasy it's if you get hit once). How do they expect you to heal yourself if you can't do anything until the spell wears down, which is usually after you've died?

If your party members don't resurrect you, chances are they don't have any resurrects on 'em. If they don't heal you, chances are they don't have an antidote or a restorative. Check their inventories before going to the field and if they don't have enough, buy some and give 'em to them. There's no way to negate status effects, but if your Body and Spirit stats are high enough, they can be prevented most of the time.

I'l try that...

it might also be an idea to have a wavemaster with you, or something to use as canon fodder for them.

if you can get close enough, then you can pretty much wipe them out!

You could be cheap just like them and use "The Moon" or "The Hangman" to get in some extra hits or my favorite use "The Lovers" just in case an enemy with a element that's opposite of the monster you're fighting happens to appear.
