Changes: Counters

Revision as of 06:33, 14 June 2021

This is a list of Counter Abilities available in Fell Seal as of version 1.0.2.

Special Classes

Thrash	Blardger	Counters any offensive action taken on the character by an adjacent unit with Whirling Blow.

Notes

Counters will not trigger on all forms of damage. Environmental damage (push, fall, drown) will not trigger counters, and neither will Poison/Bleed damage at the end of the turn. In addition, Counters will not trigger from other counters. (For example, a unit with Mystic Shield will take damage normally to their HP from a Countershot counterattack.) The only exception to these rules is Turnabout, which triggers at the moment of the unit's death.

The buff gained from Hallowed Soul and Adaptive Aegis is 75% resistance. It is added on top of any existing elemental resistance the character may have.

Evade Attack works on any ability that performs or is otherwise treated as a Regular Attack even if they are Skills. This means Evade Attack protects against Infused Edge, Arterial Cut, Chaos Slice, and similar abilities. Similarly, Evade Skill will not work on those abilities.

Pounce deals .8x the damage of a Regular Attack.

HP is considered Critical when at 20% or less of its maximum value.

The Thorns counter will only add the Thorns status effect to the character. Because it triggers after the attack, the Thorns will not deal damage from the attack that triggered the buff.
