Description	Grants Spd+3. At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants Atk/Spd+6 to unit during combat. Unit's first attack during combat deals damage = X% of unit's Spd (X = the number of foes within 3 spaces × 10; max 30%). Reduces damage from foe's first attack during combat by X% (X = the number of foes within 3 spaces × 20; max 60%). At start of turn, if unit is adjacent to only beast or dragon allies or if unit is not adjacent to any ally, unit transforms (otherwise, unit reverts). If unit transforms, unit can move 1 extra space. (That turn only. Does not stack.) If unit transforms, grants Atk+2.

Notes[ | ]

• The stat increase that can be applied by Fang of Closure is considered a temporary buff.

• The damage boosting effect of Fang of Closure 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,  Gold Perfection, or  Nine-Realm Pact will neutralize all sources of damage except from Røkkr area-of-effect Specials and the minimum 1 damage from Umbra Burst weapons.
  • For more information, see Damage calculation.

• The damage-reduction effect is calculated after offensive Specials and damage boosting effects such as  Arcane Lúin and  Dominance.
  • If a skill such as  Miracle or  Everliving Domain can trigger, the damage-reduction effect will not trigger and the user will still survive with only 1 HP.
  • "Reduces damage by X%" effects stack multiplicatively, unlike interactions related to the weapon-triangle, such as  Triangle Adept and the weapon-triangle advantage boost.
    • For example, if both  Dodge and  Gust trigger, the maximum total damage-reduction is 64% instead of 80%, since the two skills reduce the damage to (1 − 40%) × (1 − 40%) = 36% of the original damage.
  • Non-Special "reduces damage by X%" effects can be neutralized or reduced by effects such as  Share Spoils or  Halves non-Special damage reduction.
  • For more information, see Damage calculation.
• When equipped with skills such as  Beast or Beast Passives, a Beast unit will transform out of combat on turn 1 regardless of whether any transformation conditions are met such as from user's weapon or effects that add transformation conditions.
  • Skills such as  Beast or Beast Passives will also keep the unit from reverting from their Beast form.
• Fang of Closure applies the  Mobility increased status effect.
  • Any 【Bonus】 on a unit lasts until the start of that unit's next phase. If  Mobility increased is acquired during the enemy phase, it will disappear when the next player phase begins.
  •  Mobility increased does not stack with  Gallop, only the highest movement boosting value will be applied.
  •  Gravity and  Stall will negate the effects of Mobility increased.
• The Atk+2 granted by Fang of Closure when the user transforms is considered a stat boost, not a 【Bonus】 effect.
• "If unit transforms" refers to out of combat transformations of Beast units. Transformations during combat will not trigger the  Mobility increased and stat boosting effects.
  • However, if the effect(s) apply after combat, the unit must also survive combat to fulfill this condition.
