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/-Def

The best IVs for Celica are +Spd and -Def. A higher Spd stat allows Celica to prevent follow-up attacks against her and help her make follow-up attacks on her own. This boosts both her offensive and survivability capabilities. Her low Def is of less importance, so it is safe to take Def as a bane. Sincer her Def and Res stats are equal, you can also opt for a -Res bane if you prefer Celica to be tankier against physical attacks.

Celica Best Builds

Brazen Warrior Celica

HOT
： Ragnarok ： Draw Back ： Glimmer ： -	： Atk/Spd Push 4 ： Desperation 3 ： Time's Pulse 3 ： Brazen Atk/Spd 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

This build uses the refined version of Ragnarok and the effect of Atk/Spd Push 4 to chip her down to get into the range of both Desperation and Brazen Atk/Spd 3. As long as you can keep Celica at the appropriate HP threshold, you should be able to OHKO just about any foe.

General Use Celica

HOT
： Ragnarok ： Draw Back ： Glimmer ： -	： Fury 4 ： Desperation 3 ： Time's Pulse 3 ： Brazen Atk/Spd 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

This build focuses on utilizing the recoil damage of refined Ragnarok and Fury 4 to activate Desperation, Brazen Atk/Spd, and Ragnarok's Atk and Spd buffs. With Time's Pulse, Glimmer is reduced to a 1 charge cooldown, and should activate every combat assuming Celica outspeeds the opponent.

Celica Best Weapon Refinement

Effect of Celica's Refined Weapon

Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type)
Ragnarok	SP: 400
Might: 14　Range: 2　HP: Grants Atk/Spd+5 during combat. After combat, if unit attacked, deals 5 damage to unit. At start of combat, if unit’s HP ≤ 80%, grants Atk/Spd+7 during combat. ：500　：200

We recommend the Special Effect Refine for Ragnarok

If special refined, Ragnarok drops the 100% HP requirement for the +5 Atk/Spd Buff and it adds the effect of Brazen Atk/Spd 3. This makes Celica's kit easier to use as you do not need to maintain the HP requirement with healers to get buffs. Additionally, the damage helps Celica reach the HP ≤ 80% requirement for the additional effect.

Becasue of this, it is a good idea to inherit Brazen Atk/Spd 3 onto her or equip her the Sacred Seal equivalent for it as she can easily reach Brazen HP range with Ragnarok.

Celica Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Celica Roles

Celica - Caring Princess 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

Celica is a ranged magical 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.

Celica Strengths

Buff at 100% HP

Celica's weapon, Ragnarok, adds +5 Atk/Spd at the start of combat as long as Celica is at 100% HP. It inflicts damage to her after combat so she does not keep the buff for long. Make sure to pair her up with healers so that she can enjoy the buff at every encounter.

Powerful Refinement Effect

Ragnarok's special refinement drops the 100% HP requirement and adds the effects of Brazen Atk/Spd 3. This makes Celica a bit easier to use as you do not need to rely on heals to consistenly put her offensive stats to high levels. However, it still keeps the damage inflcited onto Celica after combat, but this is good for her as it can be utilized to conveniently reach the Brazen effects without deliberately baiting attacks from opponents or relying on skills like Reciprocal Aid

Strong Against Ranged Attacks

Distant Def 3 grants Celica +6 Def/Res in combat if she is attacked by ranged foes. This means that she is a good match-up against foes who use daggers, bows, tomes and staves.

Celica Weaknesses

Weak Against Melee Attacks

Celica has rather low defenses and the only skill that can help her with her durability is Distant Def 3 which only works against ranged attacks. This means that Celica will have trouble taking damage from melee attacks like swords and dragonstones.

Inheriting Distant Def 3

Celica can be used to inherit the skill Distant Def 3. However, Celica is a strong hero who has a very good special refinement effect. We recommend training and investing in her instead.
