Gradual Petrify (Final Fantasy IV)

Gradual Petrify is a status in Final Fantasy IV. 
The Gradual Petrify tatus is timed. A high Stamina stat or high max HP (monsters only) delays the timer's progression. Slow delays the timer, while Haste accelerates it. Once the timer has elapsed, the Petrify status is set, or after any attack that successfully inflicts Gradual Petrify (1/3). The timer cannot be reset as it automatically advances to the Petrify status immediately.
Gradual Petrify ignores priority and can be set even if higher-priority status effects, except KO or Petrify are already present.
