Notes

• The effect of Starpoint Lance only activates during the first combat that the user enters during either phase of that turn.
  • If the user or a foe has any skills that neutralize or stack with Starpoint Lance's effect, those effects will only stack or be neutralized during the first combat that the user enters during either phase of that turn.
• The stat increase that can be applied by Starpoint Lance is considered a temporary buff.

• The healing effect is triggered regardless of whether Starpoint Lance's user performs an attack during combat. If foe initiates combat and user cannot counterattack, Starpoint Lance's healing effect will still trigger.
• Starpoint Lance's user needs to survive the combat for the healing effect to trigger.
• Starpoint Lance's healing effect stacks with skills such as  Fury 4, that deal out of combat damage to their owner after combat.
• Starpoint Lance's after combat healing will not work if the foe has a skill that prevents HP recovery such as  Fatal Smoke 4 or  Incurable+, or the user has been inflicted with  Deep Wounds.

(Unit moves according to movement type. Once per turn. Cannot attack or assist. Only highest value applied. Does not stack. After moving, if a skill that grants another action would be triggered (like with Galeforce), Canto will trigger after the granted action. Unit's base movement has no effect on movement granted.

Notes

• Refined Starpoint Lance will reduce the effect of non-Special "reduces damage by X%" effects from Specials such as  Vital Astra.
  • damage-reduction reducing effects stack multiplicatively, unlike interactions related to the weapon-triangle, such as  Triangle Adept and the weapon-triangle advantage boost.
    • For example, if a unit has  Halves non-Special damage reduction and a foe with  Dodge is on a space with 【Divine Vein (Water)】, the maximum total damage-reduction is reduced to 10%, since the two effects reduce the damage to (1 − ((40% − 50%) − 50%)) = 90% of the original damage instead of 60% of the original damage.
  • Each damage-reduction effect is reduced individually.
    • For example, if a unit has  Halves non-Special damage reduction and the foe has both  Spurn 4 and  Dodge, the maximum total damage-reduction is reduced to 40%, since the two effects reduce the damage to (1 − (50% − 50%)) × (1 − (40% − 50%)) = 60% of the original damage instead of 30% of the original damage.
  • Refined Starpoint Lance will not reduce the effect of Special "reduces damage by X%" effects such as  Gust or  Laguz Friend 4.
  • For more information, see Damage calculation.
• The stat increase that can be applied by  Starpoint Lance is considered a  Bonus.
  • Any 【Bonus】 on a unit, including  Bonuses, lasts until the start of that unit's next phase. If  Bonuses are acquired during the enemy phase, they will disappear when the next player phase begins.
•  Starpoint Lance applies the  Mobility increased status effect.
  • Any 【Bonus】 on a unit lasts until the start of that unit's next phase. If  Mobility increased is acquired during the enemy phase, it will disappear when the next player phase begins.
  •  Mobility increased does not stack with  Gallop, only the highest movement boosting value will be applied.
  •  Gravity and  Stall will negate the effects of Mobility increased.

•  Starpoint Lance applies the  Canto (１) status effect.
  • Any 【Bonus】 on a unit lasts until the start of that unit's next phase. If  Canto (１) is acquired during the enemy phase, it will disappear when the next player phase begins.
  •  Canto (１) will not trigger after an effect that grants "another action" if it has already been triggered that turn or if the unit does not perform an action.
    • If  Canto (１) has already been triggered that turn effects such as  Forever Yours can re-enable it's usage.
  •  Canto Control will reduce the amount of movement granted by  Canto (１) to 1 space for Range = 1 units and 0 spaces for Range = 2 units.
  •  Canto (１) takes into account the unit's Move Type and the movement restrictions involved with it. For Example, a  Cavalry unit cannot use  Canto (１) to enter or cross through a forest.
    •  Canto (１) also takes into account effects that alter a unit's normal movement such as movement preventing effects, Divine Vein effects, Pass effects,  Traverse Terrain, and 【Pathfinder】.
    •  Canto (１) also takes into account warping effects such as  Guidance 4 and  Air Orders. However, the distance is limited to the maximum amount of spaces allotted by  Canto (１).
    • The movement granted by  Canto (１) is unaffected by status effects that alter a unit's movement value such as  Mobility increased,  Gallop,  Stall, and  Gravity.
•  Starpoint Lance applies the  Special Cooldown Charge +1 status effect.
  • Any 【Bonus】 on a unit lasts until the start of that unit's next phase. If  Special Cooldown Charge +1 is acquired during the enemy phase, it will disappear when the next player phase begins.

• 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.
• "If unit initiates combat" means if the user starts combat during the player phase. 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.

• The damage boosting effect of  Starpoint Lance ignores the foe's Def or Res when calculating the damage boost, and 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, or  Gold Perfection will neutralize all sources of damage during combat except the minimum 1 damage from Umbra Burst weapons.
