Notes

• "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 boost that can be applied during combat by Caring Magic is considered a temporary buff.
• A stat comparison made "At start of combat" ignores temporary buffs and temporary debuffs.
  • Temporary buffs and temporary debuffs 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 damage boosting effect of Caring Magic ignores the foe's Def or Res when calculating the damage boost, and can be reduced by damage-reduction effects such as  Archrival,  A/S Rival Break, and  Dodge.
  • Damage boosting effects stack additively, similar to flat damage-reduction effects and interactions related to the weapon-triangle, such as  Triangle Adept and the weapon-triangle advantage boost.
  • A foe equipped with Invincibility Seals will neutralize all sources of damage except from Røkkr area-of-effect Specials and the minimum 1 damage from Umbra Burst weapons.
  • A foe using attack damage preventing effects can neutralize damage dealt from the foe's own attacks and the unit's attacks (Units with Umbra Burst weapons will take and deal the minimum 1 damage).
  • For more information, see Damage calculation.
• Caring Magic can neutralize  Bonuses during combat.
  •  Bonuses are neutralized by inflicting temporary debuffs of the same amount during combat.
  • The  Bonus neutralizing effect will be negated if the affected unit has  Panic (and doesn't have  Null Panic), or has their  Bonuses removed by a source of Bonus effect removal.
• Caring Magic's Special cooldown count reduction that occurs during combat is a flat -1 and is not affected by effects related to Special cooldown charge such as  Guard,  Special Cooldown Charge +1, and  Tempo Echo.
  • All flat cooldown count increases and/or reductions during combat will stack with each other if they trigger at the same time.
    • For example, if a unit has  Preempt Pulse and  Hush Spectrum, the effects will stack and the unit's cooldown count will neither increase nor decrease.

• "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.
• Caring Magic does not guarantee the user a follow-up.
• If the user can perform a follow-up, either by passing the Spd difference check or from guaranteed follow-up effects, the initial attack and follow-up will occur before the foe can perform a counterattack.
• Effects such as  Vantage or  Paranoia have priority over Caring Magic's priority changing effect.
• Caring Magic changes the priority, or order of attacks, and therefore can be neutralized by effects such as  Hardy Bearing 3 or  Ostian Backbone.
