Notes[]
- "If foe initiates combat" means if a foe triggers combat during the enemy phase. The unit being initiated upon does not need to deal damage, nor be able to counterattack.
- However, if the effect is applied after combat, the unit being initiated upon must also survive it to fulfill this condition.
- The stat boost that can be applied during combat by Swift Stance is considered a temporary buff.
- 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.
- For example, if a unit is affected by both
- If used alongside another source of "Special cooldown charge -X", only the higher of the two charge reductions 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 Tempo Echo and Arcane Þrima will neutralize effects that inflict "Special cooldown charge -X" on its user.
