Foresight is Mythra's fighter ability, based on the Blade skill of the same name. It is functionally similar to Bat Within, but has a different activation method.

Overview

In order to activate Foresight, Mythra must perform a dodge right before an opponent lands an attack. If done correctly between frames 2-6, Mythra will perform an animation, the damage received is halved, and the opponent receives the slowdown effect for 36 frames. This move is useful for getting away from the opponent or counterattacking while the opponent is vulnerable.

Move List

If an opponent lands an attack right before you dodge, you will take less damage and trigger a slow effect for a short time. Take advantage of moving faster than your opponent, and launch a counterattack.

Origin

In Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Foresight is a Blade skill that Mythra can perform. Once activated, Mythra briefly sees into the future, similar to Shulk's Vision. The party will then have increased accuracy and evasion rates, with the total percent increase dependent on skill and affinity level, as well as meeting certain prerequisites. Foresight is introduced in the cutscene where Mythra reawakens, during the boss fight against Akhos and Malos at Olethro Playhouse; she uses Foresight to help Rex dodge and counterattack their advances, much to their surprise and confusion.
