=== Undead ===
The Undead type is the most complex of the Enemy types, as it covers more than just damage multipliers based on equipment. Holy, Silver, Bone, Crystal and other equipment oppose Undead enemies, though they are also damaged by healing effects, such as Cure, and both Drain and Osmose have their effects reversed; their effects on Undead enemies damage HP and MP (respectively) and heal the Undead targets. Consequently, while Drain equipment technically has its damage multiplied by 4 against the Undead, this actually heals the opponent four times as much.
4× damage dealt	¼ damage taken
* Holy Arrow
* Muse Harp
* Silver Harp	
* Bone Mail
* Bone Wrist
* Crystal Gloves
* Crystal Shield
* Crystal Mail
* Gauntlets
* Knight's Armor
* Luminous Robe
* Lustrous Helm
