Notes[]

The stat increase that can be applied by Ruinous Frost is considered a combat boost.
The stat decrease that can be applied by Ruinous Frost is considered a combat reduction.
The increased damage from Ruinous Frost is not affected by the weapon-triangle, and it includes the increased Atk from skills like Blárblade+ in its calculations.
- For more information, see Damage calculation.
Ruinous Frost can prevent the foe from making a follow-up attack.
- Ruinous Frost will not prevent Brave Weapons users from performing the 2 consecutive attacks when initiating combat, but the attacker cannot perform a follow-up attack.
- As a general rule, if a unit is both prevented from making, and guaranteed to make, a follow-up attack, the effects cancel out, and the standard speed check decides instead.
- A foe with skills such as Null Follow-Up 3 or a status effect such as Null Follow-Up will disable Ruinous Frost's follow-up attack prevention.
Attacks that "calculate damage using the lower of foe's Def or Res" include attacks during combat and area-of-effect Specials.
- Close Ward, Mystic Boost 3, Divine Naga, Naga, Splashy Bucket, and Splashy Bucket+ will disable this effect.
- Light and Dark and Aureola will disable this effect during combat, but not against area-of-effect Specials.
