Notes
- Lower Ground can prevent foes from warping.
- The movement granted by
Charge and warping Canto effects are treated the same way as warping effects, and can thus be obstructed by Lower Ground. - Foes using a Pass effect,
True Charge, a camp, a fortress, or sigils will still be able to warp.
- The movement granted by
- "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.
- 【Savior】 is triggered after Area-of-effect Specials (excluding Røkkr area-of-effect Specials).
- 【Savior】 will not trigger if multiple units with a 【Savior】 effect can protect the same ally.
- If a unit has multiple status effects that grant 【Savior】, 【Savior】 will not trigger from those status effects, but can still trigger from other sources.
- 【Savior】 can be prevented from triggering by Savior preventing effects such as
Undefended, 
Jaws of Closure, or 
Fell Barrier. - Effects such as
Time's Grip and 
Feud will not disable 【Savior】. - If 【Savior】 is triggered:
- The user is considered as adjacent to the protected ally, which means skills that have the "If unit is adjacent to an ally" condition trigger, while skills that have the "If unit is not adjacent to an ally" condition do not trigger.
- The user will not be able to trigger effects with a condition that "excludes when 【Savior】 triggers" such as
Might of Myriads, 
Spd Preempt 3, or 
Paranoia. - Only during combat skills that are active on the protected ally will be accounted on the user.
- "After combat" movement is disabled, even if the user or foe is defeated, such as with the movement from
Repel 4, 
Harrowing Call, or Movement Passives. - The protected ally is unaffected by "after combat" effects, such as from Pain+ and
Fatal Smoke 4.
- The stat boost that can be applied during combat by Lower Ground is considered a temporary buff.
- Effects such as
Impenetrable Void and Feud will not disable Lower Ground's temporary buffs but will still disable other ally skills from activating.
