ST Med-RF

ST Med-RF (status medicine refiner) is a menu ability in Final Fantasy VIII that allows the player to make basic status-healing items from other items. Though they are widely sold in shops, ST Med-RF can be used to easily replenish supplies when no shops are nearby, such as in the middle of dungeons.
==Obtained==
The Guardian Force Siren learns ST Med-RF for 30 AP. Siren is drawn from Elvoret during Siege of Dollet, or from Tri-Point in the final dungeon. If the player removes ST Med-RF with Amnesia Greens, there is no way to get it back.
==Mechanics==
Using ST Med-RF in the Ability menu enables the player to make status-healing items up to the cap of 100 of a single item type.
Item 	Refine Into
Betrayal Sword 	5 = 1 Remedy
Cockatrice Pinion	1 = 3 Soft
Curse Spike 	1 = 1 Remedy
Dragon Fang 	1 = 1 Remedy
Malboro Tentacle 	1 = 2 Remedy
Med Kit 	1 = 20 Remedy
Ochu Tentacle 	1 = 3 Eye Drops
Poison Powder 	1 = 3 Antidote
Silence Powder 	1 = 3 Echo Screen
Sleep Powder 	5 = 1 Remedy
Venom Fang 	1 = 10 Antidote
Zombie Powder 	1 = 3 Holy Water
==Use==
ST Med-RF only makes basic status-healing items; to make Remedy+, the player needs Med LV Up from Alexander. Items to heal status are easily available from shops, but ST Med-RF can still be of situational usefulness. Progressing through the game with random encounters enabled often leaves the player with multiple powder-type items in their inventory whose only use is to be refined to either magic (ST Mag-RF) or status-healing items.
