-based, so it is unlikely to land on or 
enemies. - Duration has three resist states, so "unresisted duration" is shown above, "resisted duration" is half of that, and it is possible for the monster to fully resist.
- Duration scales continuously with TP, i.e. 1500 TP unresisted duration is 270 seconds.
- Additional Effect is
- Accuracy of WS additional effect has increased June 2017
- Armor Break's Defense down effect can overwrite itself, regardless of current or new duration.
- Can actually reduce the duration if re-applied with less TP.
- Armor Break's Defense down effect can still apply if WS damage is 0 depending on magic accuracy.
- Armor Break's Defense down effect cannot override Full Break's Defense down.
- Full Break's weaker Defense down effect can still overwrite Armor Break's Defense down effect.
- Defense Down effects do not stack with each other.
- Dia, Box Step, Defense Down, and Geo-Frailty all stack together.
- Defense Down effects such as Acid Bolts, Angon, Spirit Surged Jumps, Tachi: Ageha, Full Break, Shell Crusher, Tenebral Crush, Sweeping Gouge, Tourbillion, and Frightful Roar, etc do not stack. Only one may be active at a time.
