Piercing Blast (Japanese: ピアシングシェル Piercing Shell) is a cannonball which was introduced in Fire Emblem Engage, available only through downloadable content. It ignores both the user's dexterity and the foe's defense and resistance to deal a fixed 20 damage; however, it can deal more if granted weapon effectiveness, at which point it deals 40 or 60 damage instead based on the effectiveness multiplier.
