Notes

• The stat increase that can be applied by Def Opening is considered a  bonus.
  • Any 【Bonus】 on a unit, including  bonuses, lasts until the start of that unit's next phase. If  bonuses are acquired during the enemy phase, they will disappear when the next player phase begins.
• Def Opening does not compare Def stats.
  • Because no comparison is made, skills like  Phantom Spd 3 have no effect.
• Unit selection takes place after all  bonuses on allies are removed, and before any new bonuses or  penalties are applied. All other existing bonuses and penalties count towards their respective stats during unit selection.
• If multiple units are tied for the highest Def, each of those units will receive the effect.
