Description	Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5 during combat, and also, if unit's Spd > foe's Spd, reduces damage from attacks during combat and from area-of-effect Specials (excluding Røkkr area-of-effect Specials) by percentage = difference between stats × 4 (max 40%). (If area-of-effect Special triggers outside of combat, checks stats and conditions for damage reduction at time of trigger and again at start of combat.)

Notes[]

The stat increase that can be applied by Areadbhar is considered a combat boost.
The damage-reduction is calculated after offensive Specials and skills that deal extra damage, such as Wo Dao+.
- Percentage-based damage-reduction effects stack multiplicatively, unlike interactions related to the weapon-triangle, such as gem weapons and Triangle Adept.
  - For example, if both Spurn 3 and Vital Astra activate, the maximum total damage-reduction is 58% instead of 70%, since the two skills reduce the damage to (1 − 40%) × (1 − 30%) = 42% of the original damage.
- For more information, see Damage calculation.
Deadeye, Lethality, Sublime Heaven, and Twin Blades will neutralize Areadbhar's damage-reduction effect.
When used with offensive Specials, Bow of Frelia, Lioness Blade, Thunderer Tome, and Lands Sword will neutralize Areadbhar's damage-reduction effect.
Adroit War Tome and Þjálfi can reduce the damage-reduction of Areadbhar by 50%.
