Substitute

Substitute is a buff that causes a character to receive one-ally attacks in the place of an ally.

Regular Substitute works on attacks with multiple hits, but not attacks that hit all allies. Substitute (All-Ally), however, covers for all allies.

If multiple allies have a substitute effect, foe attacks will typically be redirected to the one in the highest slot. However, some substitute skills seem to have a lower priority and will be overridden by members in a lower slot e.g. Deliford (SR).

SubstituteReceives foe attack in place of an ally
(Excludes all-foe all-ally attacks)
, Substitute (All-Ally)Receives all attacks in place of allies
(Includes all-ally attacks)
and other similar effects take priority over hostility. Some Hostility UpMore likely to be attacked
also behave exactly like Substitute, albeit with lower priority.
