Notes[]

A stat comparison made "At start of combat" ignores combat boosts and combat reductions.
- Combat boosts and combat reductions from skills such as Death Blow and Rauðrfox+ will not affect the outcome.
- Only stat boosts outside of combat, such as bonuses and penalties, will affect the outcome.

The stat decrease that can be applied by Thorn Lance is considered a combat reduction.
Thorn Lance can prevent the foe from making a follow-up attack.
- Thorn Lance 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 Thorn Lance's follow-up attack prevention.
