You can have 3 cards with the same skill, and they can activate on 3 different hits, but will NEVER activate more than one per hit (and a MAXIMUM of 3 skills will activate in the entire attack). This is true for both normal attacks, and Raid Boss attacks (although for Raid Boss ONLY Raid Boss skills will activate). Congo, to clarify your post, let's assume I have the following front line cards:

(Uproarious) PM Spindrift Lover Ran, (Lightspeed) PM Star Guardian Knight, RM Lord of Salvation Albiga, (Activated) Deus Ex Machina, (Harmony) Whispering Celestial - total 5 cards for the front line. The first 3 cards all have the same skill, large boost to ATK/DEF. Deus Ex Machina has small boost to ATK/DEF, Whispering Celestial has small boost to water ATK.

Here's my understanding (which may be wrong, please correct me if so):  Assuming the hits go from left to right, SLR attacks and activates skill LB to ATK/DEF. Entire front line and back line is boosted by SLR's skill.

2nd hit is from SGK, who also attacks and activates skill LB to ATK/DEF. This effect does not enhance the ATK boost that was done in the previous hit by SLR. We treat 2nd hit with skill activation as if SLR was not in the line up. So entire front line and back line boosted by SGK a 2nd time, to the same skill effect as SLR's first hit (ie: skill effect does not stack).

3rd hit is from LoSA and activates skill LB to ATK/DEF. Same as above in 2nd hit, this effect does not enhance the ATK boost that was done in previous hit by SLR or SGK. So in the 3rd hit, entire front line and back line boosted by LoSA a 3rd time, same skill effect as SLR's first hit (ie: skill effect does not stack with the previous 2 skills).

Since only 3 cards can have skill activation, both Deus Ex Machina and Whispering Celestial only provide physical damage and no skill effect damage (ie skills do not activate).

Is my understanding correct, or am I missing something here? Thx
