Defiant Def (Japanese: 守備の覚醒 Awakening defense) is a three-tiered passive type A skill which debuted in Fire Emblem Heroes; the individual tiers of the skill are Defiant Def 1, Defiant Def 2, and Defiant Def 3 in order from lowest to highest. Defiant Def boosts its user's defense when they start a turn with low HP; the size of the boost increases with the skill's tier.

The skill was later introduced to the main series in Three Houses, where it is an ability obtained by mastering the Great Knight class. It retains a similar effect and use to what it had in Heroes.
