Notes
- When battling a Flying unit, damage is boosted by 50%.
- The Flying effective damage can be neutralized by effects such as
Neutralize Effective Against Flying or 
Fire Emblem.
- The stat boost that can be applied during combat by Protection Bow is considered a temporary buff.
- The "Special cooldown charge -X" effect will stack with the "Special cooldown charge +X" effect.
- For example, if a unit is affected by both
Guard and 
Special Cooldown Charge +1, the effects will stack and the cooldown will go down without penalty or bonus.
- For example, if a unit is affected by both
- If used alongside another source of "Special cooldown charge -X", only the higher of the two charge reductions will apply.
- This means that if a unit has two "Special cooldown charge -1" effects from two different sources, the battle will play out as if only one "Special cooldown charge -1" effect is active.
- Skills such as
Tempo Echo and 
Arcane Þrima will neutralize effects that inflict "Special cooldown charge -X" on its user.
