Notes[ | ]

The stat increase that can be applied by Veðrfölnir's Edge 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.
Veðrfölnir's Edge applies the Null Follow-Up status effect.
- Any 【Bonus】 on a unit lasts until the start of that unit's next phase. If Null Follow-Up is acquired during the enemy phase, it will disappear when the next player phase begins.

Null Follow-Up will not neutralize the additional follow-up of 【Potent Follow X%】 or 【Potent Follow 100%】.
Effects that are neutralized by Null Follow-Up:
- Effects that grant the foe a guaranteed follow-up such as Quick Riposte 4, Guaranteed Follow-Ups, or the Grand Conquests Cavalry area effect.
- Effects active on the unit that prevent their follow-up attacks, such as Windsweep 3, Watersweep 3, or Weaving Fighter.
- Effects active on the foe that prevent the unit's follow-up attacks such as Steady Impact, Vengeful Fighter 4, or Foe Cannot Follow-Up.

"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 stat increase that can be applied by Veðrfölnir's Edge is considered a temporary buff.
Veðrfölnir's Edge can neutralize Penalties.
- Penalties are neutralized by granting temporary buffs of the same amount during combat.
- Temporary buffs from Veðrfölnir's Edge do not stack with temporary buffs from effects such as Grand Strategy and Atk/Spd Unity, only temporary buffs from Veðrfölnir's Edge will apply.
Veðrfölnir's Edge will neutralize the "Special cooldown charge -X" effect on unit from effects such as Guard Sword+, Guard, or 【Divine Vein (Green)】.
- Since the "Special cooldown charge -X" effect will be neutralized on unit, Veðrfölnir's Edge will also stack with the "Special cooldown charge +X" effect on unit from effects such as Heavy Blade 4, Special Cooldown Charge +1, or the Grand Conquests Infantry area effect, unless the foe is equipped with skills that neutralize the "Special cooldown charge +X" effect on unit.

The damage boosting effect of Veðrfölnir's Edge 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, File:Nine-Realm Pact.png Nine-Realm Pact, or Gold Perfection will neutralize all sources of damage during combat except the minimum 1 damage from Umbra Burst weapons.
- For more information, see Damage calculation.
The damage-reduction effect is calculated after offensive Specials, damage boosting effects such as Arcane Lúin and Dominance, and "reduces damage by X%" effects such as Gust and Dodge.
- If a skill such as Miracle or Everliving Domain can trigger, the damage-reduction effect will not trigger and the user will still survive with only 1 HP.
- Flat damage-reduction effects stack additively, similar to interactions related to the weapon-triangle, such as Triangle Adept and the weapon-triangle advantage boost.
- Flat damage-reduction effects cannot be neutralized or reduced by effects such as Share Spoils or Halves non-Special damage reduction.
- For more information, see Damage calculation.
The damage boost and damage reduction of Veðrfölnir's Edge will activate if the unit and ally with the highest total bonuses within 3 rows or 3 columns centered on unit receive Bonuses.
- The damage boost and damage reduction will not be negated if the unit and ally with the highest total bonuses within 3 rows or 3 columns centered on unit receive Penalties.
- The damage boost and damage reduction will be negated if the unit and ally with the highest total bonuses within 3 rows or 3 columns centered on unit are affected by Panic (and not affected by Null Panic), or the unit and ally with the highest total bonuses within 3 rows or 3 columns centered on unit have their Bonuses removed by a source of positive status effect neutralization.
