The Rage and Dance commands are unique in that, by selecting them, the party member who performs them becomes autonomous until the battle ends or they die. However, neither command is allowed for Imps, so any Imp who tries either command will Fight instead. Despite this, that Imp will still become autonomous. The Rage command is worse off because any party member who tries to Rage should gain statuses and status immunities, but this will not happen if they are an Imp. This patch corrects Imp's treatment of Dance and Rage by preventing autonomy.

URGENCY:
Medium to high.
PURPOSE:
The Imp status prevents many different commands from being used, including most spells, Blitz, Lore, SwdTech, etc. but most importantly to this bug, Dance and Rage. If Gau attempts to use Rage and is turned into an Imp beforehand, he will not gain any of the statuses or immunities attached to the Rage, but will still become autonomous. If he is made into an Imp during a Rage, he will lose the statuses of the Rage. Dance has similar problems. The reason for the autonomy is because Dance and Rage are treated as statuses in the game that are used as controls for autonomy, and are not being removed. This patch fixes that.
