Awakening
Grants Hit/Avo +10 when the
unit is under attack.
敵から攻撃された時
命中・回避+10
Warriors: Three Hopes
Hitting an enemy while they are readying an attack
greatly increases damage to the Stun Gauge.
??
Heroes
If unit initiates combat, foe can counterattack
before unit's first attack.

Inflicts Atk/Def/Res-4 on foe, foe cannot make
a follow-up attack, deals damage = 20% of
unit's Def (excluding area-of-effect Specials),
reduces damage from foe's attacks by 20% of
unit's Def (excluding area-of-effect Specials),
and restores 7 HP to unit when unit deals
damage to foe during combat. If unit's Spd at
start of battle ≥ 30, triggers【Potent Follow X%】
during combat (if unit cannot perform
follow-up and attack twice, X = 100; otherwise,
X = 50; "at start of battle" excludes increases to
Spd granted after ally is deployed, such as
Legendary Effects, Mythic Effects, Bonus
Heroes, Great Talent, etc.).

【Potent Follow X%】
Triggers an additional follow-up attack
immediately after unit's standard follow-up
attack and deals damage = X% of unit's normal
attack damage (if unit cannot make a follow-up
attack, this effect triggers when the standard
follow-up attack would occur; this effect is
treated like a follow-up attack, so effects like
"reduce damage by X%" still apply, but this
effect is not affected by effects that prevent
follow-ups or "attacks twice" effects; only
highest value applied; does not stack).

Trivia

  • This skill shares the same Japanese name as the enemy phase attack theme fromFire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem, which the skill's effect of providing a bonus on the enemy phase also seems to reference. The skill which serves as a thematic parallel/opposite to this one,Prescience, also shares its name with the player phase attack theme ofNew Mystery of the Emblem.
