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 Lewyn are +Spd and -Res. His kit revolves around eliminating enemies with a follow-up attack before they can retaliate through the effects of Forseti. Therefore, it is best to supplement his Spd with a +Spd IV. His Def is extremely low and is a superbane, so it is safer to take a bane in Res instead.

+Atk for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +Atk IV when merging Lewyn to 10. Lewyn's Spd stat will reach 44 with 10 merges, which is already very powerful combined with the effects of Forseti, so at that point it would be better to focus on upping damage per attack.

Lewyn Best Builds

Refined - Player Phase Astra Lewyn

HOT
： Forseti ： Reposition ： Astra ： -	： Swift Sparrow 3 ： Special Spiral 3 ： Joint Hone Spd ： Flashing Blade 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

To take full advantage of Forseti's effect, an idea would be to run an Astra setup because Lewyn has the ability of landing such a high-cooldown skill. Special Spiral 3 and Flashing Blade 3 will provide the support he needs to land Astra on the first initiate Joint Hone Spd, Swift Sparrow 3 and Forseti's special eff. ref. will take care of the Spd required for him to nail a follow-up attack! In ideal situations, the enemy will go down before they are even able to retaliate.

Lewyn Best Weapon Refine

Effect of Lewyn's Refined Weapon

Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type)
Forseti	SP: 400
Might: 14　Range: 2　HP: Grants Spd+3. If unit's HP ≥ 25% and unit initiates combat, grants Atk/Spd+4 during combat and unit can make a follow-up attack before foe can counterattack. At start of combat, if foe's HP ≥ 75%, grants Atk/Spd+4 to unit during combat and also neutralizes penalties to unit's Atk/Spd and bonuses to foe's Atk/Spd. ：500　：200

We recommend the Special Effect Refine for Forseti

The trigger condition is very easy to meet and not only does it grant a hefty +4 Atk/Spd bonus, but it also creates a gap in Atk/Spd that makes it easier for Lewyn to score the outspeed as it neutralizes Atk/Spd penalties on him and clears Atk/Spd bonuses on the opponent.

It is easy to use, and it has direct synergy with his kit. If you can afford it and you constantly use Lewyn in maps, you should definitely get it!

Lewyn Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Lewyn Roles

Lewyn - Guiding Breeze 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

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

Lewyn Strengths

Follow-up Attack Before Enemy Counterattack

Forseti, Lewyn's personal weapon, allows him to make a follow-up attack before the enemy makes a counterattack, provided that his HP is at least 50%. It is similar to Brave weapons or Reinhardt's Dire Thunder, which allows them to do extra attacks. This makes Lewyn a very powerful player phase unit.

However, since it is a follow-up attack and not an extra attack, you cannot procure 4 hits in one attack, unlike Brave weapons. You must also remember that Forseti still has a trigger condition, and as it is a follow-up attack, you must still meet the Spd requirement to use it.

Has Access to Powerful Offensive Buffs

Lewyn has access to Swift Sparrow 2 and Odd Atk Wave 3. If he attacks on odd-numbered turns, he gets a total of +10 Atk + 4 Spd, making Lewyn a very powerful player phase attacker, when especially on odd-numbered turns. These effects, when combined with Forseti and the Special Spiral boosted Glimmer, can potentially enable Lewyn to take out units without getting damaged by counterattacks.

He will also have access to an additional +4 Atk/Spd and an ability to neutralize Atk/Spd penalties on him and Atk/Spd bonuses on his foe if he gets Forseti's special effect refine. The gap in Spd created by this further makes it easier for him to land two consecutive attacks.

Special Spiral 3 Reduces Special Cooldown Count

Special Spiral 3 grants cooldown count -2 everytime Lewyn's special triggers. If you stick with Lewyn's native special, Glimmer, you can activate it every time you attack after its first activation as it only has a cooldown count of 2. Being able to consistently trigger a special is one of Lewyn's greatest strengths.

Lewyn Weaknesses

Follow-up Attack not Guaranteed

Lewyn has the unique ability of making a follow-up attack before the enemy counterattacks. It is pretty similar to how Dire Thunder or Brave weapons work. However, it still depends on Spd, as it is not an extra attack. If Lewyn does not have the Spd required to execute a follow-up attack, then Forseti's efffects will be wasted.

Because it is a follow-up attack, effects that cancel said attacks also prevent Forseti's effects from activating. This includes skills like G Tomebreaker.

Lewyn as a Source Hero

Value of Skills	★★★★★

Inheriting Special Spiral 3

Lewyn can be used to inherit the skill Special Spiral 3. However, Lewyn is a very powerful tome unit who can take out many enemy units in the game. We recomend building and training Lewyn instead.
