[[File:ScintillaStaggering.jpg|thumb|left|Scintilla breaking after countering a [[Warlock Punch]].]] However, Scintilla's unique behavior comes with some unique weaknesses as well. It cannot counter attacks that deal more than 25% damage; the barrier instead breaks. Sephiroth will not take damage from the triggering hitbox, but this renders him unable to secure instant KOs by countering extremely powerful attacks like other characters with counters may achieve in niche scenarios, as well as makes Scintilla less effective in casual game modes where damage boosters such as [[items]] and [[spirits]] may be in play. The trigger hitbox placement also leaves him vulnerable from behind, and the counterattack itself is a projectile, so there is risk of it being [[absorb]]ed or [[reflect]]ed back. As a result, using Scintilla against moves with both a hitbox and a reflector is very dangerous. | [[File:ScintillaStaggering.jpg|thumb|left|Scintilla breaking after countering a [[Warlock Punch]].]] However, Scintilla's unique behavior comes with some unique weaknesses as well.

The barrier resembles a reflector, particularly [[Reflect Barrier]]; however, despite its appearance, it is not a reflector itself. | The barrier resembles a reflector, particularly [[Reflect Barrier]]; however, despite its appearance, it is not a reflector itself. | ||
