Effect:【Pathfinder】 【Pathfinder】 When an ally moves through unit's space, that space is counted as 0 spaces moved instead of 1 space. (Unit's space can be freely added to ally's normal movement.

Notes

• The stat increase that can be applied by Hrímfaxi is considered a temporary buff.
  • The stat increasing effect of Hrímfaxi will activate if the unit receives  Bonuses.
  • The stat increasing effect will not be negated nor reduced if the unit receives  Penalties.
  • The stat increasing effect of Hrímfaxi will stack with the temporary debuffs from  Neutralize Bonuses or sources of bonus neutralization.
  • The stat increasing effect will be negated if the unit is affected by  Panic (and not affected by  Null Panic), or the unit has their  Bonuses removed by a source of positive status effect neutralization.

• 【Pathfinder】 takes into account the ally's Move Type and the movement restrictions involved with it. For Example, a  Cavalry ally cannot use 【Pathfinder】 cross through a forest.
  • A unit with 【Pathfinder】 will allow allies to pass through terrain that slows their movement such as forests, trenches, or spaces affected by 【Divine Vein (Flame)】 or 【Divine Vein (Water)】.
  • 【Pathfinder】 only affects normal and non-warping Canto movement. Warp movement is unaffected.
  • 【Pathfinder】 also takes into account effects that alter a unit's movement such as Pass effects, warp preventing effects, movement preventing effects,  Traverse Terrain, and non-warping Canto effects.

Notes

• Refined Hrímfaxi applies the  Incited status effect.
  • Any 【Bonus】 on a unit lasts until the start of that unit's next phase. If  Incited is acquired during the enemy phase, it will disappear when the next player phase begins.

• "If unit initiates combat" means if the user starts combat during the player phase. The unit does not need to deal damage, nor be the first to attack.
  • However, if the effect is applied after combat, the unit must also survive it to fulfill this condition.
• The stat increase that can be applied by  Incited is considered a temporary buff.
• The calculation of "spaces from start position to end position" counts the total number of spaces from the initiator's starting position to the end position before combat.
  • The calculation includes spaces occupied by an ally with the 【Pathfinder】 effect.
  • The start position used in the calculation references the initiator's starting position after being moved by sources of unit movement such as  Reposition.

• The stat increase that can be applied by Refined Hrímfaxi is considered a temporary buff.
  • The stat increasing effect of Refined Hrímfaxi will activate if unit and allies within 2 spaces receives  Bonuses.
  • The stat increasing effect will not be negated nor reduced if unit and allies within 2 spaces receives  Penalties.
  • The stat increasing effect of Refined Hrímfaxi will stack with the temporary debuffs from  Neutralize Bonuses or sources of bonus neutralization.
  • The stat increasing effect will be negated if unit and allies within 2 spaces is affected by  Panic (and not affected by  Null Panic), or unit and allies within 2 spaces has their  Bonuses removed by a source of positive 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.

• The stat decrease that can be applied by  Hrímfaxi is considered a temporary debuff.
  • The stat decreasing effect of  Hrímfaxi will activate if the foe and foes within 2 spaces of those foes receives  Penalties.
  • The stat decreasing effect will not be negated nor reduced if the foe and foes within 2 spaces of those foes receives  Bonuses.
  • If the foe and foes within 2 spaces of those foes is affected by  Panic (and not affected by  Null Panic),  Hrímfaxi will utilize the total  Penalty within each stat during calculation.
  • The stat decreasing effect of  Hrímfaxi will stack with the temporary buffs from  Neutralize Penalties or sources of penalty neutralization.
  • The stat decreasing effect will be negated if the foe and foes within 2 spaces of those foes has their  Penalties removed by a source of negative status effect neutralization.
• The damage-reduction effect is a flat -7 damage that is calculated after offensive Specials, damage boosting effects such as  Arcane Lúin and  Dominance, and "reduces damage by X%" effects such as  Gust and  Dodge.
  • 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.
  • Flat damage-reduction effects stack additively, similar to interactions related to the weapon-triangle, such as  Triangle Adept and the weapon-triangle advantage boost.
  • Flat damage-reduction effects cannot be neutralized or reduced by effects such as  Share Spoils or  Halves non-Special damage reduction.
  • For more information, see Damage calculation.

• 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 the effect is active, the unit will gain 2 charges from both attacking and being attacked.
• If used alongside another source of "Special cooldown charge +X", only the higher of the two charge increases 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  Spendy Scimitar will neutralize effects that grant "Special cooldown charge +X" to the foe.
