Notes[]
- Cardinal directions refers to a targets being directly north, south, west, or east of the user. Distance does not factor.
- Panic Ploy applies the
Panic 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 the status effect for their first action.
- Panic does not convert bonuses into penalties, it changes the value of existing bonuses from positive to negative.
- If the affected unit does not have bonuses or the affected unit has Null Panic, Panic has no effect, but can still be used to trigger skills that require a 【Penalty】 such as Atk/Spd Catch 4 and Cursed Lance.
