Notes

• If the HP threshold is met at the start of the player's phase, the unit receives Defiant Def's effects until the end of the enemy's phase.
• Defiant Def's effects will not trigger if the unit is inflicted with  False Start, unless  False Start is neutralized by a skill such as  Dream Deliverer.
• Defiant Def triggers before any start-of-turn healing, such as  Falchion, or  Renewal 3.
• The stat increase that can be applied by Defiant Def 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.
