Notes[]
- The stat increase that can be applied by Def/Res Gap is considered a
bonus.
- Def/Res Gap does not compare Def+Res total stats.
- Because no comparison is made, skills like Phantom Spd 3 have no effect.
- Because no comparison is made, skills like
- 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+Res total, each of those units will receive the effect.
