Trait Fruits—How to Change IVs

When using an Ascendant Floret, we recommend getting the next superboon if it fits the hero. If not, consider what stat your hero needs most.

+Spd/-Res

The best IVs for Soleil are +Spd and -Res. A higher Spd stat allows Soleil to get a ton of follow-up attacks on her foes which is very important for Firewsweepers. Her Res is of less importance so it is safe to take it as a bane.

Soleil Best Builds

Budget Soleil

： Soleil's Shine ： Draw Back ： Blazing Wind ： -

： Darting Blow 3 ： Drag Back ： Spur Res 3 ： Spur Res 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

A simple budget build for Soleil. Take note that Soleil's Shine is a Sweep weapon. By wielding it, she cannot counterattack, but so can't her foe.

Refined Soleil's Shine Soleil

HOT
： Soleil's Shine ： Reposition ： Galeforce ： -	： Atk/Spd Solo 4 ： Null Follow-Up 3 ： Time's Pulse 3 ： Atk/Spd Solo 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

This build uses refined Soleil's Shine to attack with accelerated Special cooldown charges without fear of retaliation. Time's Pulse 3 lowers the Special charge by 1, and Null Follow-Up 3 to turn combat into a Spd check ensures that Soleil activates Galeforce assuming she attacks her foe twice.

Soleil Best Weapon Refine

Effect of Soleil's Refined Weapon

Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type)
Soleil's Shine	SP: 400
Might: 16　Range: 1　HP: 3 Unit and foe cannot counterattack. If unit initiates combat, grants Atk/Spd+5 and Special cooldown charge +1 per unit's attack during combat. (Only highest value applied. Does not stack.) ：500　：200

We recommend the Special Effect Refine for Soleil's Shine

Soleil's Shine is an upgraded Firesweep Sword+ and upgrading it with the special effect refine provides the best bonuses compared to the other refine options.

The Atk/Spd+5 bonus is great, but what really sets the special effect refine apart is the accelerated Special cooldown charge per unit's attack.

This effect allows Soleil to quickly charge up her Special without retaliation!

Soleil Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Soleil Roles

Soleil - Adorable Adorer Roles
Close-Physical	Ranged-Physical	Close-Magic	Ranged-Magic
Physical Wall	Magic Wall	Effective Weapon	Movement Assist
Exclusive Skill	All-Range Counter	Recovery	Refresher
Legendary	Mythic	Duo / Harmonized	Resplendent

Soleil is a close physical attacker (range = 1). Therefore, when not accounting for the Weapon Triangle, the amount of damage she deals will be equivalent to her Atk minus the foe's Def stat.

Soleil Strengths

High Atk and Spd

Soleil has naturally high Atk and Spd, which makes her a very deadly offensive unit. With these stats, she makes for a good wielder of her Soleil's Shine which allows her to take out a wide range of units without taking damage. If coupled with the right allies and skills, Soleil can even take out a number of blue units.

Prevents Counterattacks with Soleil's Shine

Soleil's Shine makes Soleil a formidable player phase unit as it prevents enemies from scoring counterattacks against her. Combined with her high Spd and Darting Blow 3, she can eliminate a wide range of units in the player phase without taking damage. The downside to this is that she too can not score counterattacks on enemies. This is not too crippling as with awareness and strategy, you can turn Soleil into a player phase attacker that can easily sweep enemy teams.

Darting Blow Buffs Spd

Darting Blow 3 grants Soleil +6 Spd whenever she initiates attacks. Coupled with Soleil's high Spd, she can execute follow-up attacks on many enemy units during the player phase.

Soleil Weaknesses

Cannot Counterattack

As stated, the downside of Soleil's Shine is that she cannot score counterattacks. This can easily be made up for through strategy. Avoid leaving Soleil in the danger zone as she is a sitting duck in the enemy phase. The only reason why you should leave Soleil in the danger zone is for taking a hit for an ally whose survival is more important at the given situation.
