Notes[]
- Atk/Spd Bulwark affects
Charge, regular movement, and non-warping Canto effects; warping is unaffected.
- A unit can warp to a space regardless of whether a path that is not blocked by Atk/Spd Bulwark exists between the unit and the destination.
- A unit can warp to a space adjacent to a foe with Atk/Spd Bulwark active.
- Atk/Spd Bulwark only prevents movement through affected spaces.
- Atk/Spd Bulwark does not affect foes with a Pass effect, True Charge, or sources of unit movement.
- If Smite could move an ally 2 spaces away, it always does so regardless of whether a foe with Atk/Spd Bulwark is adjacent to the space in the middle.
- A unit can attack a foe with Atk/Spd Bulwark and then leave the space with Hit and Run, Harrowing Call, or a Canto effect.
- If
- The stat reduction that can be applied during combat by Atk/Spd Bulwark is considered a temporary debuff.
- The healing effect is triggered regardless of whether Atk/Spd Bulwark's user performs an attack during combat. If foe initiates combat and user cannot counterattack, Atk/Spd Bulwark's healing effect will still trigger.
- Atk/Spd Bulwark's user needs to survive the combat for the healing effect to trigger.
- Atk/Spd Bulwark's healing effect stacks with skills such as Fury 4, that deal out of combat damage to their owner after combat.
- Atk/Spd Bulwark's after combat healing will not work if the foe has a skill that prevents HP recovery such as Fatal Smoke 4 or Incurable+, or the user has been inflicted with Deep Wounds.
- The non-Special "reduces damage by X%" effect is calculated after offensive Specials and damage boosting effects such as Arcane Lúin and Dominance.
- If a skill such as Miracle or Everliving Domain can trigger, the damage-reduction effect will not trigger and the user will still survive with only 1 HP.
- Umbra Burst weapons will always deal a minimum of 1 damage even if the foe is equipped with
Invincible Sister, Vengeful God, Invincibility Seals, or damage reduction effects. - "Reduces damage by X%" effects stack multiplicatively, unlike interactions related to the weapon-triangle, such as Triangle Adept and the weapon-triangle advantage boost.
- Non-Special "reduces damage by X%" effects can be neutralized or reduced only during combat by effects such as Share Spoils+ or Halves non-Special damage reduction.
