Description 【Switch】	Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). At start of player phase or enemy phase, if any foes within 3 rows or 3 columns centered on unit have Res < unit's Res+5, inflicts Atk/Def-7,【Discord】,【Deep Wounds】, and a penalty that neutralizes non-Special "if foe would reduce unit's HP to 0, unit survives with 1 HP" effects on those foes through their next actions. If foe initiates combat or foe's HP ≥ 75% at start of combat, inflicts Atk/Def-6 on foe, inflicts penalty on foe's Atk/Def = 20% of unit's Res at start of combat, reduces damage from foe's attacks by 20% of unit's Res (excluding area-of-effect Specials), neutralizes foe's bonuses to Atk/Def (from skills like Fortify, Rally, etc.), and grants Special cooldown charge +1 to unit per attack during combat (only highest value applied; does not stack). At start of turn, if unit is adjacent to only beast or dragon allies or if unit is not adjacent to any ally, unit transforms (otherwise, unit reverts). If unit transforms, grants Atk+2, deals +7 damage when Special triggers, and neutralizes effects that grant "Special cooldown charge +X" to foe or inflict "Special cooldown charge -X" on unit.

Notes

• The stat decrease that can be applied by Nectar Horn 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.
• Nectar Horn applies the  Discord 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  Discord for their first action.
  • The stat decrease that can be applied by  Discord is considered a temporary debuff.
• Nectar Horn applies the  Deep Wounds 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  Deep Wounds for their first action.

•  Deep Wounds can prevent units from recovering HP though any effects that heal units.
  • Units affected with  Deep Wounds that are targeted by HP recovering Assists are unable to recover HP, but will still receive other effects of the Assist.
    • Users of HP transfer Assists will still lose their HP when the Assist is used on an ally that cannot recover HP.
  • Effects such as  Divine Nectar or  Breath of Life 4 will neutralize or reduce the hp recovery preventing effect of  Deep Wounds only during combat.
  • Effects such as  Life Unending II will neutralize the hp recovery preventing effect of  Deep Wounds only after combat.
  • Assists such as  Restore+ will remove Nectar Horn without healing the targeted unit.
  • Effects such as  Ymir: Seasons of Life and  Odd Recovery 3 will remove  Deep Wounds and then heal the targeted unit.
• Nectar Horn applies the  Neutralizes non-Special "unit survives with 1 HP" effects 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  Neutralizes non-Special "unit survives with 1 HP" effects for their first action.
  •  Neutralizes non-Special "unit survives with 1 HP" effects will neutralize non-Special "unit survives with 1 HP" effects from Specials such as  Balance Circlet II.
    •  Neutralizes non-Special "unit survives with 1 HP" effects will not neutralize Special "unit survives with 1 HP" effects such as  Miracle or  Life Unending II.
    • For more information, see Damage calculation.
• "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 Nectar Horn is considered a temporary debuff.
• A stat comparison made "At start of combat" ignores temporary buffs and temporary debuffs.
  • Temporary buffs and temporary debuffs from skills such as Death Blow and  Rauðrfox+ will not affect the outcome.
  • Only stat boosts outside of combat, such as  Bonuses and  Penalties, will affect the outcome.

• The damage-reduction 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.
  • "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 by effects such as  Share Spoils or  Halves non-Special damage reduction.
  • For more information, see Damage calculation.
• Nectar Horn can neutralize  Bonuses during combat.
  •  Bonuses are neutralized by inflicting temporary debuffs of the same amount during combat.
  • The  Bonus neutralizing effect will be negated if the affected unit has  Panic (and doesn't have  Null Panic), or has their  Bonuses removed by a source of positive status effect neutralization.

• 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.

• When equipped with skills such as  Beast or Beast Passives, a Beast unit will transform out of combat on turn 1 regardless of whether any transformation conditions are met such as from user's weapon or effects that add transformation conditions.
  • Skills such as  Beast or Beast Passives will also keep the unit from reverting from their Beast form.
• The Atk+2 granted by Nectar Horn when the user transforms is considered a stat boost, not a 【Bonus】 effect.
• The Special damage boosting effect is a flat +7 damage that can be reduced by damage reduction effects such as  Gust,  Atk/Spd Excel, and  Dodge.
  • A foe equipped with  Embla's Ward,  Múspellflame,  Niðavellir Axiom,  Gold Perfection, or  Nine-Realm Pact will neutralize all sources of damage except from Røkkr area-of-effect Specials and the minimum 1 damage from Umbra Burst weapons.
  • For more information, see Damage calculation.
• Nectar Horn will neutralize the "Special cooldown charge -X" effect on unit from effects such as  Guard Sword+,  Guard, or 【Divine Vein (Green)】.
  • Since the "Special cooldown charge -X" effect will be neutralized on unit, Nectar Horn will also stack with the "Special cooldown charge +X" effect on unit from effects such as  Heavy Blade 4,  Special Cooldown Charge +1, or the Grand Conquests  Infantry area effect, unless the foe is equipped with skills that neutralize the "Special cooldown charge +X" effect on unit.
• Nectar Horn will neutralize the "Special cooldown charge +X" effect on foes from effects such as  Heavy Blade 4,  Special Cooldown Charge +1, or the Grand Conquests  Infantry area effect.
  • Since the "Special cooldown charge +X" effect will be neutralized on foes, Nectar Horn will also stack with the "Special cooldown charge -X" effect inflicted on the foe from effects such as  Guard Sword+,  Guard, or 【Divine Vein (Green)】, unless the foe is equipped with skills that neutralize the "Special cooldown charge -X" effect on unit.
• "If unit transforms" refers to out of combat transformations of Beast units. Transformations during combat will not trigger the stat boost, Special damage boost, and cooldown charge neutralization effects.
  • However, if the effect(s) apply after combat, the unit must also survive combat to fulfill this condition.
