Job Trait Overview

  • Game Description: May cancel target's attack with an attack of your own.
  • Job Traits are always active.
  • Further Notes:
    • A character with this trait will occasionally cancel an opponent's attack with one of his/her own.
    • It is possible to counter the attacks of more than one enemy, as long as they are in your range of view and are attacking you.
    • It is possible to counter while using Cover as a Monk/Paladin or Paladin/Monk.
    • Opponent's attack must bypass character's evasion, shadows (Blink/Utsusemi), and parry for this trait to trigger.
    • This trait will activate less often if the target has high Evasion.
    • Obviously Guard skill does not affect your chance to counter, however counter+ reduces your chance to guard, because the check for counter is performed before guard.
    • This trait has no effect on enemy TP attacks.
    • This trait has no effect on magic-based or ranged attacks.
    • For dual weapon users (such as hand-to-hand) you counter with only your main weapon (or one fist).
    • Special damage types do not apply to counters. For example, Vampiric Claws normally deliver slashing damage, but during counters the damage type is blunt.
    • Counters do not earn the user any TP. However the opponent will gain TP as if it was hit with a normal attack.
    • Weapon skill-ups can occur during counters, just as for normal attack turns.
