Bust is a negative Status Effect in Final Fantasy XI which exclusively inflicts Corsairs. When a Corsair uses his/her Phantom Roll ability and then uses Double-Up one or more times and ends up with a number greater than 11, s/he will receive this status ailment. The status ailment gives a moderate negative effect of the same type that would have been granted should the Corsair have gained a positive relative to the type of roll attempted. The penalty is not given to all of the party, as the bonus would have been, only the Corsair.

[edit] Example:

If the Corsair rolls a bust while doing Chaos Roll, which would normally give him/her an Attack bonus, s/he will receive a penalty to his/her Attack score.
