Notes

• When battling an  Armored unit, damage is boosted by 50%.

• Sources of  Armored effectiveness neutralization:
•  Dragonhide
•  Svalinn Shield
•  Dew Dragonstone
•  Maltet
•  Opposing Stones
•  Fire Emblem
•  Neutralize Effective Against Armored

• When battling a  Cavalry unit, damage is boosted by 50%.
  •  Grani's Shield and  Fire Emblem will neutralize the damage boost against  Cavalry units.
• The stat boost that can be applied during combat by Mirage Feather is considered a temporary buff.

• "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.
• Mirage Feather does not guarantee the user a follow-up.
• If the user can perform a follow-up, either by passing the Spd difference check or from guaranteed follow-up effects, the initial attack and follow-up will occur before the foe can perform a counterattack.
• Effects such as  Vantage or  Paranoia have priority over Mirage Feather's priority changing effect.
• Mirage Feather changes the priority, or order of attacks, and therefore can be neutralized by effects such as  Hardy Bearing 3 or  Caltrop Dagger+.

Upgrades

Mirage Feather can be upgraded in the Weapon Refinery.

Cannot warp (using skills like Wings of Mercy) a distance greater than unit would be able to move with normal Canto movement.)	400 SP,  500,  200

Notes

• refined Mirage Feather will not neutralize the additional follow-up of Potent Follow effects.
• Follow-up effects that are neutralized by refined Mirage Feather:
  • Effects that grant the foe a guaranteed follow-up such as  Quick Riposte 4,  Guaranteed follow-ups during combat, or the Grand Conquests  Cavalry area effect.
  • Effects active on the unit that prevent their follow-up attacks, such as  Windsweep 3,  Watersweep 3, or  Weaving Fighter.
  • Effects active on the foe that prevent the unit's follow-up attacks such as  Steady Impact,  Vengeful Fighter 4, or  Foe Cannot Follow-Up.

• If an effect that grants "another action" to unit would trigger, (such as with  Galeforce) the extra action will be granted before 【Canto (２)】 triggers (excluding effects that grant "another action" after Canto).
  • 【Canto (２)】 will not trigger after an effect that grants "another action" if it has already been triggered that turn or if the unit does not perform an action.
  • 【Canto (２)】 triggers after "after combat" movement effects such as  Repel 4,  Harrowing Call, or Movement Passives.
  • If 【Canto (２)】 has already been triggered that turn, Canto re-enabling effects can allow 【Canto (２)】 to trigger again.
  • If an ally has an effect such as  Salvage or  Summer Chilling, the unit can also warp to the ally after triggering Canto regardless of distance restrictions.
•  Canto Control will reduce the amount of movement granted by 【Canto (２)】 to 1 space (or 2 spaces with  Salvage) for Range = 1 units and 0 spaces (or 1 space with  Salvage) for Range = 2 units.
• 【Canto (２)】 takes into account the unit's Move Type and the movement restrictions involved with it. For Example, a  Cavalry unit cannot use 【Canto (２)】 to enter or cross through a forest.
  • 【Canto (２)】 also takes into account effects that alter a unit's normal movement such as movement preventing effects, Divine Vein effects, Pass effects,  Traverse Terrain, and 【Pathfinder】.
  • 【Canto (２)】 also takes into account warping effects such as  Guidance 4 and  Air Orders. However, the distance is limited to the maximum amount of spaces allotted by 【Canto (２)】.
  • The movement granted by 【Canto (２)】 is unaffected by status effects that alter a unit's movement value such as  Mobility increased,  Gallop,  Stall, and  Gravity.
•  Mirage Feather can neutralize  Penalties during combat.
  •  Penalties are neutralized by granting temporary buffs of the same amount during combat.
  • Temporary buffs from  Mirage Feather do not stack with temporary buffs from effects such as  Grand Strategy and  Atk/Spd Unity, only temporary buffs from  Mirage Feather will apply.
