Notes

  • Subtle Blow also reduces the TP given to enemies from damaging spells.
  • The maximum amount of combined Subtle Blow and Subtle Blow II that will be calculated is 75%; while it is possible to achieve over 75% by mixing Subtle Blow and Subtle Blow II, it will have no benefit.
    • Subtle Blow and Subtle Blow II individually cap at 50% each. Adding points to a specific term over 50% will have no benefit, even if you have not reached the 75% total cap.
    • The Agility modification of TP is applied in a different, multiplicative term
  • Subtle Blow's effect on TP gain by the enemy is calculated as such, rounded down:
