Slowga (Final Fantasy V)

Slowga is a Time Magic spell in Final Fantasy V. It inflicts the slow effect on all targets, which when successful, halves the rate their Active Time Battle bar increases, effectively halving their turn rate from the baseline.
Slowga is also an enemy ability that can be cast by Black Warlock, Chrono Controller, Enuo, Fury, and Atomos.
==Obtained==
Slowga can be purchased for 3,000 gil from Regole, Castle of Bal, Quelb, or Surgate Castle. Regole is the earliest the spell can be purchased.
==Mechanics==
:Spell Hit\% = 80 + Attacker Level - Target Level
:Evade\% = Target Magic Evade\%
If the target has shell, the Spell Hit% is also halved, and if the target is a toad, its Evade % is reduced to 0.
The game generates two random numbers between 0 and 99.
:If N1 >= Hit%, the spell misses
:If N2 < Evade%, the spell misses
Slowga is affected by reflect.
The slow and haste effects are mutually exclusive and cannot coexist on the same unit.
==Use==
Slowga is a relatively inexpensive debuff to attempt to reduce the turn rates of all enemies. Though its effect is less crippling than spells like Sleep, Stop, or Toad, the ability to hit all enemies with a spell that has a high hit rate can greatly hinder the enemy group's ability to harm the player. Slowga can be useful to gain an easy advantage over the opposing party, being able to heal or attack more quickly than them. The main downside to the spell is many enemies and bosses are immune to the effect entirely.
Another use for Slowga is to cancel enemy's haste statuses.
