Notes

• If unit initiates combat means if the user starts combat on their turn. The unit does not need to deal damage, nor be the first to attack.
  • However, if the effect is applied after combat, the unit must also survive it to fulfill this condition.
• Brynhildr applies the  Gravity status effect.
  • Any 【Penalty】 on a unit lasts until that unit takes an action. If the unit takes multiple actions in a turn, they will only have the status effect for their first action.
  •  Gravity has priority over  Mobility Increased and can be inflicted on units with  Mobility increased by the  Stall status effect.

Notes

• Magic refers to .
• 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 Brynhildr's damage-reduction effect.
• When used with offensive Specials,  Bow of Frelia,  Lioness Blade,  Thunderer Tome, and  Lands Sword will neutralize Brynhildr's damage-reduction effect.
•  Adroit War Tome and  Þjálfi can reduce the damage-reduction of Brynhildr by 50%.
• Brynhildr can prevent the foe from making a follow-up attack.
  • Brynhildr will not prevent Brave Weapons users from performing the 2 consecutive attacks when initiating combat, but the attacker cannot perform a follow-up attack.
  • As a general rule, if a unit is both prevented from making, and guaranteed to make, a follow-up attack, the effects cancel out, and the standard speed check decides instead.
  • A foe with skills such as  Null Follow-Up 3 or a status effect such as  Null Follow-Up will disable Brynhildr's follow-up attack prevention.
