Bind is a Black Magic spell that secures an enemy in one position. It prevents the enemy from moving, allowing a character to either avoid a physical attack or giving them a head start to run away.
When cast on an enemy, the Bind status has a chance to wear off when the enemy is directly damaged. Spell accuracy is most highly affected by Enfeebling Magic Skill, Magic Accuracy, and INT. The Bind scroll is dropped by many defeated low-level Quadav, as well as some Yagudo and Orcs.
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance[]
Bind is a spell of the Judgemaster class, exclusive to Cid Randell, which inflicts Immobilize and Disable on a target. It costs 16 MP to use.
Bind is also used as a keyword for laws that include any ability that causes the Immobilize or Disable effects.
