Notes

• Holy Vestments is triggered by the foe's attack and reduces the damage taken from that attack.
  • Sources of effects that prevent defensive Specials from triggering:
  •  Already Dead
  •  Pure Storm
  •  Blood & Thunder
  •  Crusader's Astra
  •  True Lunar Flash
  •  Bonded Blades
  •  Breezy Spear
  •  Lands Sword
  •  Nightmare Staff
  •  Queensblade
  •  Sentinel Bow
  •  Sisterly War Axe

• The Special "reduces damage by X%" 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.
  • Umbra Burst weapons will always deal a minimum of 1 damage even if the foe is equipped with  Invincible Sister,  Vengeful God, Invincibility Seals, or damage reduction effects.
  • "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.
  • Special "reduces damage by X%" effects cannot be neutralized or reduced only during combat by effects such as  Share Spoils+ or  Halves non-Special damage reduction.
  • For more information, see Damage calculation.
