Notes

• The stat decrease that can be applied by Flame Battleaxe is considered a temporary debuff.
• The "Special cooldown charge -X" effect will stack with the "Special cooldown charge +X" effect.
  • For example, if a unit is affected by both  Guard and  Special Cooldown Charge +1, the effects will stack and the cooldown will go down without penalty or bonus.
• If used alongside another source of "Special cooldown charge -X", only the higher of the two charge reductions will apply.
  • This means that if a unit has two "Special cooldown charge -1" effects from two different sources, the battle will play out as if only one "Special cooldown charge -1" effect is active.
• Skills such as  Spd/Def Tempo 4 and  Whirling Grace will neutralize effects that inflict "Special cooldown charge -X" on its user.

Notes

• The stat decrease that can be applied by  Flame Battleaxe is considered a  Penalty.
  • Any 【Penalty】 on a unit lasts until that unit takes an action. If the unit takes multiple actions in a turn, they will only have  Penalties for their first action.
    • If the unit also has  Grand Strategy, any  Penalties will remain active until the start of that unit's next phase.
•  Flame Battleaxe applies the  Sabotage status effect.
  • Any 【Penalty】 on a unit lasts until that unit takes an action. If the unit takes multiple actions in a turn, they will only have  Sabotage for their first action.
  • The stat decrease that can be applied by  Sabotage is considered a temporary debuff.
    • The stat decreasing effect of  Sabotage will activate if the affected unit or it's allies within 2 spaces receive  Penalties.
    • The stat decreasing effect will not be negated nor reduced if the affected unit or it's allies within 2 spaces receive  Bonuses.
    • If the affected unit or it's allies within 2 spaces are affected by  Panic (and not affected by  Null Panic),  Sabotage will utilize the total  Penalty within each stat during calculation.
    • The stat decreasing effect of  Sabotage will stack with the temporary buffs from  Neutralize Penalties or sources of penalty neutralization.
    • The stat decreasing effect will be negated if the affected unit or it's allies within 2 spaces have their  Penalties removed by a source of negative status effect neutralization.
• "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.
• As a general rule, if a unit is both prevented from making, and guaranteed to make a follow-up attack, the effects cancel out, and the Spd difference decides instead (including effects that alter the Spd difference such as  Frozen).
• A foe with effects such as  Phys. Null Follow or  Null Follow-Up will neutralize the guaranteed follow-up attack granted by  Flame Battleaxe.
