Pincer Attack
| ||||
|
Pincer Attack (Japanese: 挟撃 Pincer attack) is a skill which debuted in Fire Emblem Engage. Associated with the Halberdier class, it guarantees its user a follow-up attack when they initiate combat against a foe situated between themselves and an ally. However, the enemy's follow-up attack is not negated. In the case where the enemy also has a follow-up attack, the user's second attack occurs in between the foe's attacks, after their first counterattack.
