Stagger is a mobility debuff in Xenoblade Chronicles X. An enemy or party member inflicted with Stagger will be shoved back a short distance. If they are in the middle of casting an Art, the animation will be interrupted. Enemies cannot act until Stagger wears off.
Similar to Break in Xenoblade Chronicles, an enemy or party member inflicted with Stagger will lose their resistance to Topple. If the enemy is sufficiently large, a Skell can Bind them.
