Okay, so I noticed after completing the game and attaining Legend rank, the Moogle's Synthesis section adds a great deal of new accessories. I noticed the last 13, while they have fancy names, appear to each have a 100% "resistance" to an "element", and the order the elements are in correspond with the 13 members in numerical order by their element (the word written in yellow in the intro).

But seriously... okay well so we all obviously know what "fire resistance" (Axel) and "ice resistance" (Vexen) are, but like, the one corresponding to Xigbar, "Space in it's Place" is "100% space resistance". Or Zexion's "Lose Your Illusion", being 100% "illusion resistance". Are these elements/attributes for real in the game? Like, what in the game would "nil resistance" or "time resistance" guard against? Do these accessories actually have any effect on anything? Or are those descriptions just for show?

It's all based on the other status effects you can get. So 100% space resistance prevents shoe glue (or whatever it's called) that prevents you from jumping, and 100% moon resistance prevents silence. I think it goes:
100% nil: prevents you from taking damage from attacks that ignore defense (like Ragnarok)
100% space: prevents shoe glue
100% wind: prevents air toss
100% ice: prevents getting frozen
100% earth: prevents attacks that half your hp
100% illusion: prevents flip foot
100% moon: prevents silence
100% fire: prevents burn
100% water: prevents you from getting hurt by attacks that sap your hp
100% time: prevents your level from getting wound back
100% lightning: prevents jolt
100% flower: prevents blind
100% light: prevents your radar from being zapped
