Type(s) Special Game(s) Heroes

Negating Fang (Japanese: 反竜穿 Anti-Dragon Fang) is a special skill which debuted in Fire Emblem Heroes. Negating Fang allows the user to reduce damage taken from attacks at any range by 30%, while also granting the additional effect of boosting the user's next attack by a percentage of its user's Attack, resetting at the end of combat. Despite the fact that it has a defensive-oriented primary effect which would imply association with a different special skill tree, it is actually an enhanced variant of Dragon Fang that carries over that skill's effect but demotes it to the secondary effect.
