HP (18) | ★★★☆☆ | |
Atk (23) | ★★★★☆ | |
Spd (9) | ★★★★★ | |
Def (8) | ★★★☆☆ | |
Res (5) | ★☆☆☆☆ |
◯ = Stat gains +4 with a superboon, ✕= Stat goes down by -4 with a superbane, - = No assets or flaws
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.
The best IVs for Minerva are +Spd and -Res. 5 star Lv. 40 Minerva with Life and Death 3 has a Spd stat of 38. While pretty good, it could certainly be better. A Spd IV allows Minerva to secure many more follow-up attacks on her own, boosting both her offensive and survivability capabilities. Her Res stat is already low and it isn't really important for her especially in Life and Death 3 builds, so it is okay to take it as a bane.
We recommend a +Spd IV when merging Minerva to 10. With a +Spd IV, Minerva's Spd stat will reach 40 with 10 merges, which makes it even easier for Minerva to land many follow-up attacks. She can reach 45 Spd when Life and Death 3 is used which is pretty high. However, if you plan to use a Distant Counter build, we recommend using a +Res Minerva as a base so you can tank more attacks.

Moonbow

Fury 4

Minerva is reliant on Special procs to deal damage thanks to the pure damage granted by the spec. eff. refine of Hauteclere. No matter how long the cooldown of her Special is, it always deals a flat +10 so to leverage that, you should take a low-cooldown Special like Moonbow. Fury 4 gives stats and helps her get into Desperation 3 range that gives room for lots of one-sided engagements. Atk/Def Menace is very expensive, but it is great on this built. Quickened Pulse allows for a fast Moonbow activation in the first turn. You can also go for Mystic Boost 3 Seal if you want to take Wrath 3 in the B slot. If you're running Dive-Bomb 3 instead of Desperation, do not get Fury 4 as the self-incflicted damage makes it hard to use Dive-Bomb.

Aether

|
A simple enemy phase set for Minerva. It relies on Hauteclere, and the attacks from Distant Counter + Quick Riposte 3 for fast Aether activations. If you want to take Iote's Shield in the S slot, you can take Quick Riposte in the B slot instead.
Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type) | |
---|---|
SP: 400 | |
Might: 16 Range: 1 HP: +3 Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). Deals +10 damage when Special triggers. :500 :200 |
|
Hauteclere's special effect accelerates Minerva's special trigger by 1 and it gives a +10 damage bonus whenever the special activates. We recommend getting it as it is pretty easy to utilize, and the effects are useful for Minerva's role as a player phase flying ace.

Note: Stats bonuses from skills are not taken into account.
Minerva 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.
Minerva's exclusive weapon, Hauteclere accelerates Minerva's special trigger by -1. It also has high Mt, so dhe can deal high damage while utilizing low trigger specials like Moonbow and Glimmer.
Hauteclere's special effect accelerates Minerva's special trigger by -1 and it gives a +10 damage bonus whenever the special activates. Because of the effect, Minerva can activate and strengthen low trigger specials like the previously mentioned Moonbow and Glimmer.
Life and Death 3 provides Minerva with +5 Atk/Spd, but also gives her -5 Def/Res. This makes her a very powerful full-on offensive unit but it diminishes her ability to tank damage. Although opting for skills like Close Def 3 grants her more survivability and Quick Riposte 3 allows her to make follow-up attacks even without the extra Spd from Life and Death 3, base Minerva is a unit that excels in offense and offense alone.
As a flying unit, Minerva takes 1.5x damage from bows and weapons effective on flying units. Be sure to keep her out of the range of archers and leave these foes to your other units.
Minerva has a low Res stat. If Eirika is attacked by a magic user, there is a high possibility that she will be taken out, especially when equipped with Life and Death 3. Always be mindful of Minerva's positioning in relation to the enemies who pose a threat to her in the enemy phase regardless if she can counterattack or not.

I do not have what is required of a ruler. During my time ruling in place of my brother… I have allowed rebellion, been captured, and displayed my own powerlessness and disgrace. Perhaps I could better rule with a tactician like you at my side… You have a unique quality about you—you make me feel as if… I still have much I can accomplish. Thank you for that. I swear to not give up and to look to the future. |
