Notes[ | ]

• If unit attacked means if the user attacked at any time during combat. They do not need to initiate combat, deal damage, or survive.
  • This means that if the foe initiates combat and the user cannot counterattack, the effect will not trigger.
• Venin Edge inflicts out of combat damage.
  • Out of combat damage cannot reduce a unit's HP to 0.
  • A foe equipped with  Embla's Ward,  Múspellflame,  Niðavellir Axiom,  Gold Perfection, or  Nine-Realm Pact will neutralize all sources of out of combat damage except from Røkkr area-of-effect Specials.
  • A foe equipped with  Røkkr or a unit with  En Garde will neutralize all sources of out of combat damage except Area-of-effect Specials.
• Venin Edge applies the  Counterattacks disrupted status effect.
  • Any 【Penalty】 on a unit lasts until that unit takes an action. If the unit takes multiple actions in a turn, they will only have  Counterattacks disrupted for their first action.

•  Counterattacks disrupted can prevent the foe from counterattacking.
  • A foe with skills such as  Null C-Disrupt 4 or  Null C-Disrupt E will be able to counterattack.
  • A foe with  Mystic Boost 4 will only be able to counterattack against  Staff units.
  • A foe with  Ice-Bound Brand,  Ice-Crystal Spear,  Nifl's Bite, or  Holy Yule Blade will only be able to counterattack against  ranged units.

Notes[ | ]

• The stat increase that can be applied by  Venin Edge is considered a temporary buff.

• 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.
•  Venin Edge applies the  Discord status effect.
  • Any 【Penalty】 on a unit lasts until that unit takes an action. If the unit takes multiple actions in a turn, they will only have  Discord for their first action.
  • The stat decrease that can be applied by  Discord is considered a temporary debuff.
