Description | Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). Effective against dragon foes. Grants weapon-triangle advantage against colorless foes, and inflicts weapon-triangle disadvantage on colorless foes during combat. Reduces damage from area-of-effect Specials by 80% (excluding Røkkr area-of-effect Specials). If foe's Range = 2, calculates damage using the lower of foe's Def or Res. |
Notes[ | ]
- When battling a Dragon unit or a unit with Loptous, Attack is multiplied by 1.5.
- Breath of Blight, Eerie Scripture, Snow's Grace, Sublime Surge, and the Neutralize Effective Against Dragons status effect will neutralize the attack increase against Dragon units and units with Loptous.
- Colorless refers to .
- Ethereal Breath will stack with additional and altered weapon-triangle advantages and disadvantages from Duality, Raven tomes, and Time Traveler skills.
- Ethereal Breath does not boost values alongside an existing weapon-triangle advantage and thus is not affected by effects such as Duality or Cancel Affinity.
- See weapon-triangle for more information on weapon triangle advantage effects.
- The damage-reduction 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.
- Percentage-based damage-reduction effects stack multiplicatively, unlike interactions related to the weapon-triangle, such as Triangle Adept and the weapon-triangle advantage boost.
- For example, if both Buffer 4 and Godlike Reflexes activate, the maximum total damage-reduction is 70% instead of 90%, since the two skills reduce the damage to (1 − 50%) × (1 − 40%) = 30% of the original damage.
- For more information, see Damage calculation.

Upgrades[ | ]
Can be upgraded in the Weapon Refinery. For a list of other such weapons, see list of upgradable weapons.
Notes[ | ]
- The stat decrease that can be applied by refined Ethereal Breath is considered a temporary debuff.
- Refined Ethereal Breath's healing effect will not work if the user is prevented from recovering HP during combat from effects such as Fatal Smoke 4, Incurable+, or Deep Wounds, unless the user has a skill that reduces the effect of Deep Wounds such as Special Fighter 4.
- "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.
- Ethereal Breath can neutralize penalties.
- Penalties are neutralized by granting temporary buffs of the same amount during combat.
- Temporary buffs from Ethereal Breath do not stack with temporary buffs from effects such as Grand Strategy and Atk/Spd Unity, only temporary buffs from Ethereal Breath will apply.
