After combat, if unit attacked, inflicts【Triangle Adept】on target and foes within 2 spaces of target. 【Triangle Adept】 If unit has weapon-triangle advantage, boosts Atk by 20% through its next action, and if unit has weapon-triangle disadvantage, reduces Atk by 20% through its next action. |
Notes[]
- Has the same effect as
Wrathful Staff 3 and 
Swift Sparrow 2. - Punishment Staff allows the unit to deal staff damage like other weapons instead of halving damage after defenses are calculated, rounded down.
- Mystic Boost 3 and Splashy Bucket+ on the foe will disable this effect.
- The stat increase that can be applied by Punishment Staff is considered a combat boost.
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.
If unit attacked
means if the wielder attacked at any time during combat. They do not need to initiate combat, deal damage, or survive.- This means that if the foe initiates combat and the user cannot counterattack, the effect will not activate.
- Punishment Staff applies the Triangle Adept 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.
- If the target has Triangle Adept and the target is equipped with Cancel Affinity 3, Triangle Adept will be negated since Cancel Affinity 3 neutralizes weapon-triangle advantage effects on the same unit.
- See weapon-triangle for more information on weapon triangle advantage effects.
