Doom can be a pesky spell, since it gives you three turns to win the battle before you're automatically killed (even less time if you have the misfortune of having something like Haste cast on you at the same time). If you want some tips on how to stay alive with Doom, try the following:

• 1.) Cast Slow on the character afflicted with Doom. It will slow the Doom Count down.
• 2.) Cast Stop on the character afflicted with Doom. It will temporarily stop the Doom Count.
• 3.) Use Induration (a Mystic Art) to turn the character afflicted with Doom to stone. This "heals" Doom, though the character will be encased in stone until you heal him or her.
