The damage dealt by a Staggering Blow scales like most [[weapon]] types, being boosted by the user's [[strength]] or [[magic (stat)|magic]], and reduced by the target's [[defense]] or [[resistance]]. Staggering Blows can never be counterattacked in any way, though Staggering Blows themselves can also never make [[follow-up attack]]s. Unlike the similar area-of-effect [[Gambit]]s, Staggering Blows hit their targets independently; a single Staggering Blow may hit hit some targets while missing others. Staggering Blows can additionally kill multiple units at once. | ||
Before a monster can use a Staggering Blow, they must prepare to do so first; this is typically indicated by the monster unit roaring. When a monster is preparing a Staggering Blow, hovering over the monster will display the attack's intended area-of-effect. A monster must stay in place for one [[phase]] for the Staggering Blow to be unleashed; if there are no longer any targets in range when the monster's phase comes along, the monster will stop preparing it, and instead move to the nearest target to use a regular attack. If a monster unleashes its Staggering Blow, or it prepares it and does not use a regular attack in the next turn, all of the monster's [[barrier (monster)|barrier]]s will be refreshed, unless the monster has previously suffered an armor break. | Before a monster can use a Staggering Blow, they must prepare to do so first; this is typically indicated by the monster unit roaring.
