Notes
- The stat boost that can be applied during combat by Knightly Manner is considered a temporary buff.
- 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 Spd difference decides instead (including effects that alter the Spd difference such as
Frozen). - A foe with effects such as
Phys. Null Follow or
Null Follow-Up will neutralize the guaranteed follow-up attack granted by Knightly Manner.
- The damage boosting effect of Knightly Manner is not affected by the weapon-triangle, and includes the increased Atk from skills like
Blárblade+ in its calculations. - The damage boosting effect of Knightly Manner 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).

- Damage boosting effects stack additively, similar to flat damage-reduction effects and interactions related to the weapon-triangle, such as
- Knightly Manner can prevent the foe from counterattacking.
- A foe with effects such as
Null C-Avoid or
Fell Spirit will be able to counter. - A foe with
Mystic Boost 4 will only be able to counter against
Staff units. - A foe with
Ice-Bound Brand,
Ice-Crystal Spear,
Nifl's Bite, or
Holy Yule Blade will only be able to counter against
