See the IV Checker for All Units

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/-HP

The best IVs for Red Tome Eirika are +Spd and -HP. A higher Spd stat allows Eirika to prevent follow-up attacks and help her make follow-up attacks on her own. This boosts both her offensive and survivability capabilities. HP is much lower priority than her other stats, so it can be safely taken as a bane.

+Spd for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +Spd IV when merging R!Eirika to 10. With a +Spd IV, Eirika's Spd stat will reach 42 with 10 merges, which makes it even easier to prevent follow-up attacks from enemies and allows Eirika to get even more follow-up attacks on her own.

Red Tome Eirika Best Weapon Refinement

Effect of R!Eirika's Refined Weapon

Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type)
Gleipnir	SP: 400
Might: 14　Range: 2　HP: Grants Res+3. At start of combat, if foe's HP = 100%, grants Atk/Spd+4 during combat. At start of combat, if foe's HP = 100%, inflicts Atk/Spd/Def/Res-4 on foe and neutralizes unit's penalties during combat. ：500　：200

We recommend the Special Effect Refine for Gleipnir

Gleipnir's special effect is easy to trigger and is very powerful as it buffs Eirika, Debuffs the Enemy and neutralizes Eirika's penalties. The only condition to trigger this is that the enemy unit's HP must be 100%, making it very easy to trigger. We recommend getting this special refinement as it makes Eirika a great unit for initiating battles with.

Red Tome Eirika Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Red Tome Eirika Roles

Eirika - Anamnesis Lady 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

R!Eirika is a ranged magic attacker (range = 2). Therefore, when not accounting for the Weapon Triangle, the amount of damage she deals will be equivalent to her Atk minus the foe's Res stat.

R!Eirika's Strengths

Gleipnir Provides Offensive Buffs

R!Eirika's exclusive weapon, Gleipnir grants Eirika +3 Atk/Spd whenever her foe's HP is 100%. Combined with its special refinement effect and Swift Sparrow 2, Eirika is able to make powerful follow-up attacks against many enemy units.

Quick follow-ups with Desperation

The B skill Desperation 3 allows Eirika to make follow-up attacks before enemies can counterattack if her HP is ≤ 75%. It is fairly easy to trigger, but the effect is very powerful.

Available from Heroes Path!

Red Tome Eirika can be obtained from the 10th Tier of Heroes Path! This is good news for everyone who wants an R!Eirika as 10th Tier of Heroes Path is pretty easy to reach.

Red Tome Eirika's Weaknesses

Low Durability

Red Tome Eirika has low survivability stats. If Eirika is attacked, there is a high possibility that she will be taken out. Always be mindful of Eirika's positioning in relation to the enemies who pose a threat to her in the enemy phase regardless if she can counterattack or not.

Weak to Anti-Cavalry Skills

Red Tome Eirika is a Cavalry unit making her weak to skills against such units such as Ridersbane+. If attacked by a unit with Ridersbane+, Eirika will take 1.5x damage. Be mindful of what skills your enemies are equipped with.

Red Tome Eirika Team and Counters

Teammates for Red Tome Eirika

Camus	Nino	Reyson	Surtr
Gunter	Brave Ike	Leanne	Louise

Characters with Cavalry Buffs and Dance/Sing Skills

Since Eirika is a cavalry unit, she benefits from skills like Hone Cavalry. Red Tome Eirika also greatly benefits from Reyson and Leanne who both have Sing. She is a cavalry unit that can move 3 squares per action so Sing makes her extremely mobile. This allows her to move in and out of the danger zone or attack multiple enemies in the same turn.

Characters Strong Against Blue Units

Red Tome Eirika is rather fragile and can't take that many attacks before going down, especially from blue units. It would be best for Eirika to have an ally who can take down blue units for her so she can safely focus on the other units.

Red Tome Eirika Counters

Micaiah	Reinhardt	Legendary Tiki (Young)	Legendary Chrom
Legendary Leif	Caineghis	Fallen Tiki (Young)	Duma

Heroes with High Offensive Power or Powerful Specials

Red Tome Eirika is very fragile and she can't afford to be in the danger zone in the enemy phase. Units that specialize in offense can easily take her out. Always be mindful of Eirika's positioning in relation to the enemies who pose a threat to her in the enemy phase regardless if she can counterattack or not.

Heroes with Distant Counter

Red Tome Eirika may have trouble with units that possess Distant Counter as she is very fragile. Be mindful of units that possess Distant Counter to ensure that your Eirika survives!

Teammates with low-damage AoE Skills

Duma's Upheaveal or skills like Pain+ and Savage Blow 3 damage inflicts a bit of damage to enemies who would be otherwise 100%. This takes away the special effect of Gleipnir and thus lowers Red Tome Eirika's effectiveness, so they don't make great teammates for Eirika.
