In this game, I will go through all the key status effects and how they work.

While some bosses can inflict you with these afflictions, you don’t have to worry about them from ordinary enemies. However, you can inflict them on the enemies based on the build you’re using.

You can also utilize different consumables to apply some of these effects. When you’re making a build, always focus on the status effects and pick those that will gel well with your preferred shell.
