Type(s) Passive (Type B) Game(s) Heroes

Close Call (Japanese: 回避・一撃離脱 Avoidance · Hit-and-Run) is a three-tiered passive type B skill which debuted in Fire Emblem Heroes; the individual tiers of the skill are known as Close Call 1, Close Call 2, and Close Call 3 in order from lowest to highest. Units with a Close Call skill, if they are faster than their target, reduces any damage done to them both during combat and from an area-of-effect special skill not associated with Røkkr Sieges by a percentage based on a multiple of the difference between the Speed stats, with the user moving one space away after combat if they initiated it; the multiple of the Speed difference increases with the skill's tier.
