Notes

• The skill refined version of Devil Axe listed first has the same effect as  Wrath 3.
• The HP threshold and "if Special triggers by attacking" conditions apply both to the cooldown count and the +10 damage.
  • Area-of-effect Specials are now considered "triggered by attacking" and will gain +10 damage from Devil Axe. (As of Version 2.2.0)
• Deals +10 damage when an offensive Special triggers.
  • The added damage from activating a Special is a fixed +10 and ignores Defense and Resistance, but can be reduced by damage reduction skills such as those from  Pavise.
  • The added damage will also affect area-of-effect Specials such as  Rising Flame and  Growing Thunder.
  • For more information, see Damage calculation.
  • For the +10 damage, the HP threshold is checked at the point of special activation, as opposed to start of combat.
