Description	Effective against flying foes. If unit initiates combat, grants Atk/Def+4 during combat and foe cannot make a follow-up attack.

Notes[]

When battling a Flying unit, Attack is multiplied by 1.5.
- Dragonskin II, Dragonscale, Iote's Shield, Dragoon Shield, Ashera's Chosen, Bushido, Gurgurant, Hel's Reaper, and the Neutralize Effective Against Flying status effect will neutralize the attack increase against flying units.
If unit initiates combat means if the user starts a 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.
The stat increase that can be applied by Budding Bow+ is considered a combat boost.
Budding Bow+ can prevent the foe from making a follow-up attack.
- Budding Bow+ will not prevent a Brave Weapon user from performing the 2 consecutive attacks when initiating combat, but the attacker is not able to 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 Budding Bow+'s follow-up attack prevention.

Can be upgraded in the Weapon Refinery. For a list of other such weapons, see list of upgradable weapons.
