Escape (skill)

Escape, Emergency Escape or Retreat is a special skill.
==Effect==
Escape is an enemy-exclusive skill that allows the user to flee from a battle.
In Persona 5, Emergency Escape is a special ability possessed by any normal Shadow in Palaces. When a battle drags on, the Shadows may start to panic one after another. If they are not killed or inflicted with an ailment, they will use this skill to escape on their next turn, and raise the Security Level considerably in the process if at least one manages to escape. Thieves Guild may be used to stop and knock them Down instead, removing the Panic status in the process. Downing them with other methods does not remove the status. When the party is ambushed, the Shadows do not escape as long as they still have the advantage, but may try to once the encirclement is broken through (after a Hold Up).
The moment at which a Shadow begins to get panic is dependent on two factors: their personality and the duration of the battle overall. A Shadow that is Timid may start to panic earlier compared to an Irritable one. Additionally, newly summoned Shadows could become panicked right away if summoned into a prolonged battle. If the battle has multiple waves, Shadows before the last wave will never escape. In this case, only the duration of the last wave is considered for the panicking.
Shadows in Mementos never become panicked or try to escape.
