Notes[ | ]

• The stat increase that can be applied by Def/Res Finish is considered a temporary buff.

• The damage boosting effect is a flat +1/3/5 damage that ignores the foe's Def or Res when calculating the damage boost, and can be reduced by damage reduction effects such as  Gust,  Atk/Spd Excel, and  Dodge.
  • A foe equipped with  Embla's Ward,  Múspellflame,  Niðavellir Axiom, or  Gold Perfection will neutralize all sources of damage during combat except the minimum 1 damage from Umbra Burst weapons.
  • For more information, see Damage calculation.
• Def/Res Finish 4's healing effect will not work if the user is prevented from recovering HP during combat from effects such as  Fatal Smoke 4,  Incurable+, or  Deep Wounds, unless the user has an effect that neutralizes or reduces the effect of  Deep Wounds during combat such as  Divine Nectar or  Breath of Life 4.
