Notes
- The stat increase that can be applied by Mirage Axe is considered a temporary buff.
- Mirage Axe can prevent the foe from making a standard follow-up attack.
- As a general rule, if a unit is both prevented from making, and guaranteed to make a standard follow-up attack, the effects cancel out, and the Spd difference is used (including effects that increase the Spd difference such as
Wyvern Rift). - Mirage Axe will not prevent a unit with a "unit attacks twice" effect from performing the 2 consecutive attacks, but the the unit will not be able to perform a standard follow-up attack.
- Mirage Axe will not prevent the additional follow-up attack of 【Potent Follow X%】.
- A foe with effects such as Mag. Null Follow or Null Follow-Up will neutralize the follow-up preventing effect of Mirage Axe.
- As a general rule, if a unit is both prevented from making, and guaranteed to make a standard follow-up attack, the effects cancel out, and the Spd difference is used (including effects that increase the Spd difference such as

Notes
- The stat decrease that can be applied by refines Mirage Axe is considered a temporary debuff.
- The temporary buffs of Mirage Axe will not apply to the user's allies who are inflicted with Feud or are in combat against a foe with skills such as Impenetrable Void and C Feud 3.
- The healing effect is triggered regardless if Mirage Axe's user performs an attack during combat. If foe engages and user cannot counterattack, Mirage Axe's healing effect will still trigger.
- Mirage Axe's user needs to survive the combat for the healing effect to trigger.
- Mirage Axe's healing effect stacks with skills such as Fury 4, that deal out of combat damage to their owner after combat.
- Mirage Axe's after combat healing will not work if the foe has a skill that prevents HP recovery such as Fatal Smoke 4 or Incurable+, or the user has been inflicted with Deep Wounds.
- However, allies unaffected by Deep Wounds will still receive Mirage Axe's healing effect.

- The damage-reduction 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.
- Percentage-based damage-reduction effects stack multiplicatively, unlike interactions related to the weapon-triangle, such as Triangle Adept and the weapon-triangle advantage boost.
- For example, if both Buffer 4 and Godlike Reflexes activate, the maximum total damage-reduction is 70% instead of 90%, since the two skills reduce the damage to (1 − 50%) × (1 − 40%) = 30% of the original damage.
