Description	Effective against beast foes. Grants Spd+3. At start of combat, if unit's Res > foe's Res, reduces foe's Atk/Spd by 50% of difference between stats during combat. (Calculates reduction before combat. Maximum penalty of -8.)

Notes

• When battling a Beast unit, damage is boosted by 50%.
• A stat comparison made "At start of combat" ignores temporary buffs and temporary debuffs.
  • Temporary buffs and temporary debuffs from skills such as Death Blow and  Rauðrfox+ will not affect the outcome.
  • Only stat boosts outside of combat, such as  Bonuses and  Penalties, will affect the outcome.
• The stat decrease that can be applied by Eldhrímnir is considered a temporary debuff.

Notes

• "If foe initiates combat" means if a foe triggers combat during the enemy phase. The unit being initiated upon does not need to deal damage, nor be able to counterattack.
  • However, if the effect is applied after combat, the unit being initiated upon must also survive it to fulfill this condition.
• The stat increase that can be applied by Eldhrímnir is considered a temporary buff.

• Eldhrímnir will not neutralize the additional follow-up of 【Potent Follow X%】 or 【Potent Follow 100%】.
• Effects that are neutralized by Eldhrímnir:
  • Effects that grant the foe a guaranteed follow-up such as  Quick Riposte 4,  Guaranteed Follow-Ups, or the Grand Conquests  Cavalry area effect.

• The damage-reduction effect is calculated after offensive Specials and damage boosting effects such as  Arcane Lúin and  Dominance.
  • If a skill such as  Miracle or  Everliving Domain can trigger, the damage-reduction effect will not trigger and the user will still survive with only 1 HP.
  • "Reduces damage by X%" effects stack multiplicatively, unlike interactions related to the weapon-triangle, such as  Triangle Adept and the weapon-triangle advantage boost.
    • For example, if both  Dodge and  Gust trigger, the maximum total damage-reduction is 64% instead of 80%, since the two skills reduce the damage to (1 − 40%) × (1 − 40%) = 36% of the original damage.
  • Non-Special "reduces damage by X%" effects can be neutralized or reduced by effects such as  Share Spoils or  Halves non-Special damage reduction.
  • For more information, see Damage calculation.
