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 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,  Close Call 4, or a Canto effect.
• The stat decrease that can be applied 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 damage-reduction 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.
  • "Reduces damage by X%" effects stack multiplicatively, unlike interactions related to the weapon-triangle, such as  Triangle Adept and the weapon-triangle advantage boost.
    • For example, if both  Dodge and  Gust trigger, the maximum total damage-reduction is 64% instead of 80%, since the two skills reduce the damage to (1 − 40%) × (1 − 40%) = 36% of the original damage.
  • Non-Special "reduces damage by X%" effects can be neutralized or reduced by effects such as  Share Spoils or  Halves non-Special damage reduction.
  • For more information, see Damage calculation.
