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.

Neutral IVs by default!

As a hero obtainable only through Grand Hero Battle, Narcian will always have neutral IVs by default. The only way to access IVs for this unit is through using Trait Fruits.

+Atk/-Res

The best IVs for Narcian are +Atk and -Res. Narcian's Atk stat is very low so you should take this IV as much as possible. It also makes best use of the damage multiplier he gets against blue units with Emerald Axe. This allows him to take out a lot of blue units especially those who have low Def. His Res is very low and is of less importance so it is safe to take it as a bane.

With it, lance units are doomed to Narcian because of the combined effects of Lancebreaker 3 and Emerald Axe+!

+Atk for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +Atk IV when merging Narcian to 10. This is for the same reasons as above. Even with this IV however, his Atk stat ill still be relatively low so we recommend getting the special effect refine for Runeaxe. You can also merge him up, use dragon flowers and get more powerful skills onto him.

Narcian Best Weapon Refine

Effect of Narcian's Refined Weapon

Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type)
Runeaxe	SP: 400
Might: 16　Range: 1　HP: +3 When unit deals damage to foe during combat, restores 7 HP to unit. (Triggers even if 0 damage is dealt.) If【Penalty】is active on foe, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+4 to unit during combat. 【Penalty】 All effects that last "on foe through its next action." Includes penalties inflicted by a skill like Panic or Threaten and negative status effects (preventing counterattacks, restricting movement, or the effects of a skill like Triangle Adept or Guard). ：500　：200

We recommend the Special Effect Refine for Runeaxe

Since Narcian can easily apply a penalty on lance units with Lancebreaker 3, we recommend the special effect refine for Runeaxe. The Atk/Spd/Def/Res +4, when paired with Triangle Adept, or a support unit who can inflict Triangle Adept on foes, allows him to counter to powerful lance users such as Legendary Ephraim, Brave Hector and Brave Eliwood.

Narcian Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Narcian Roles

Narcian - Wyvern General 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

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

Narcian Strengths

Very Strong Against Blue Units

Emerald Axe+ increases Narcian's Atk by 20% if he has weapon-triangle advantage over the opponent, and reduces Atk by 20% if he has weapon-triangle disadvantage. This makes him very powerful against blue units, but you should make sure to keep him out of red units' reach.

Strong Against Lance Users

Narcian has access to Lancebreaker 3, which guarantees follow-up attacks against lance users and prevents them from executing follow-up attacks if Narcian's HP is equal or more than 50%. One of his weapons, Emerald Axe+, can also provide him weapon advantage over lance users. Because of these skills, he can be a good counter to powerful blue units like Brave Hector and Hardin.

Narcian Weaknesses

Weak to Bows

As a flying unit, Narcian takes 1.5x damage from bows and weapons effective on flying units. Be sure to keep him out of the range of archers and leave these foes to other units.

Heroes with Effective Skills

Weak to Red Units

Narcian has great advantage over blue units especially lance users because of Lancebreaker 3 and Emerald Axe+, but red units do not have a hard time taking him out at all. Be mindful of Narcian's positioning in relation to red units especially units like Midori, who is both a red unit and a bow user.
