Description	If unit initiates combat, grants Atk/Def+4 during combat and foe cannot make a follow-up attack.

Notes[]

If unit initiates combat means if the user starts a combat on their turn. 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 Instant Sword+ is considered a combat boost.
Instant Sword+ can prevent the foe from making a follow-up attack.
- Instant Sword+ will not prevent a Brave Weapon user from performing the 2 consecutive attacks when initiating combat, but the attacker is not able to perform a follow-up attack.
- 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 standard speed check decides instead.
- A foe with skills such as Null Follow-Up 3, Dragon's Ire 3, or a status effect such as Null Follow-Up is unaffected by Instant Sword+'s follow-up attack prevention.

Can be upgraded in the Weapon Refinery. For a list of other such weapons, see list of upgradable weapons.
