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.
  • Vantage does not grant the user the ability to counterattack regardless of foe's range.
  • If the user can counterattack, either from using a weapon with the same range as the foe's weapon or from countering skills, the user's counterattack will occur before the foe's initial attack.
  • Vantage changes the attack priority, or order of attacks, and therefore can be disabled by skills such as Hardy Bearing 3 Hardy Bearing 3 or Skilliconweapon Dragonslasher+.
