Notes
- The damage boosting effect of Fault 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.
- The damage boost of Fault will activate if the target or foes within 2 spaces of target receive Penalties.
- The damage boost will not be negated if the target or foes within 2 spaces of target receive Bonuses.
- If the target or foes within 2 spaces of target are affected by Panic (and not affected by Null Panic), Fault will utilize the total Penalty within each stat during calculation.[1]
- The damage boost will be negated if the target or foes within 2 spaces of target have their Penalties removed by a source of Penalty effect removal.
- The damage boost of Fault will not apply to the user's allies if the user is inflicted with Time's Grip, the user's allies are inflicted with Feud, or the user's allies are in combat against a foe with skills such as Impenetrable Void and C Feud 3.
