    Ramiel has Dizziness on all 3 skills. So she puts it out very reliably, especially if you run Mordred who lowers affliction resistance. Dizziness is infinitely better than paralysis, cause it works everywhere and not just on things that are bosses which get stunned. There are some bosses which are tough to stun and you'll only get off a single stun in the entire fight. There are other bosses where your goal is to survive to the stun, which means you'll want a character with defense up, attack down, healing, or defense skills. Ramiel has multiple skills that qualify.

    Lastly, this is just my opinion. You're free to disagree, by all means. I could totally be wrong and that's okay with me.
    I think you're mistaking paralysis with increased stun duration. Thor is the only kh who does paralysis right now. Paralysis is like dizzy, but with a 100% chance they miss their turn from what I've seen. Also, Beelzebub doesn't cause any boss debuffs.

    Huh? So Belphegor's Paralyzer and Huanglong's eidolon attack are different from paralysis? Ugh, mistranslations. I'll correct myself, then, my bad. That skill is better than I thought it was.

    Its kind of annoying we don't have an explanation for each status effect, some of them are incredibly unclear. According to the description, hallucination (from cybele) should also cause the boss to skip a turn, but it doesn't always seem to happen.

    Belphegor's attack isn't "mistranslated" so much as "not translated"; the difference between the skill and the status effect 'paralyze' is lost in translation. A careful translator would've changed the skill name to avoid confusion.

    The Hallucination description is a mistranslation of the JP, though the JP is unclear also. It's a status effect applied to Cybele that nullifies enemy attacks (the JP description says 'nullifies the attacks of all enemies'--not the same as disabling them!); presumably it only works if she's targeted. Nutaku also fails to convey which skills target the group and which target the entire raid. This is an issue introduced by them that didn't exist in the original JP.

    Some of these problems are just careless mistakes, but others result from hiring translators that don't play the game and don't understand the mechanics, and therefore don't know how to properly convey them. Good translators don't just translate; they clarify when needed to get the intended message across. In some cases, that means rewriting.
