Panic (status effect)

This page is about the status effect. For the weapon, see Panic.

Panic is a status effect which causes existing and newly applied  bonuses to be treated as  penalties. It is important to note that Panic does not remove bonuses, it converts bonuses into penalties. This means that it is possible to have two penalties at once, one from a negative bonus and one from a penalty. Combat boosts and  penalties are not affected by Panic. For sources of this status effect, see the category page Sources of Panic.

For example, if an ally uses  Rally Attack on a unit inflicted with Panic, the +4 Atk bonus will become and be treated as a penalty, reducing that unit's Atk by 4.

Skill Interaction

Main article: Skill Interaction

Changed interaction with other skills while affected by Panic:

• Skills that nullify bonuses, such as  Beorc's Blessing or  Divine Naga, do not activate.
• Blade Tomes ignore penalties, and will be incapable of acquiring damage bonuses.

Retained interaction with other skills while Bonuses are affected by Panic:

• Bonuses which affect the same stat will not stack with each other (eg. Atk Tactic and Hone Atk). Only the bonus with the biggest change will apply, granting a larger Penalty.
• Bonuses affecting different stats (eg. Hone Atk and Hone Spd) will stack.
• Bonuses will stack with penalties & combat boosts. They will both apply at the same time.
• If bonuses and penalties exist in the same stat,  Blizzard will utilize the greater penalty within that stat during the calculation.
• Bonuses are not affected by skills that target penalties, such as  Harsh Command.

When a unit has this status effect, an icon is shown on their sprite on the map.
