Summer Noire Best IVs

Recommended IVs

Stat	Superboon/Superbane	IV Recommendation
HP (17)		★★☆☆☆
Atk (20)		★★★★☆
Spd (10)		★★★★★
Def (5)		★★★☆☆
Res (5)		★★☆☆☆

◯ = Stat gains +4 with a superboon, ✕= Stat goes down by -4 with a superbane, - = No assets or flaws

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 Roy are +Spd and -HP. A higher Spd allows her to score more follow-up attacks. This is especially important when you are aiming for a quad-attack Brave Bow build. Her HP is of less importance so it is safe for her to take as a bane. Additionally, her HP stat will be improved regardless of which weapon refine you take so it is a stat that is easy to make up for.

Summer Noire Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Summer Noire Roles

Noire - Shade Seeker 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

Summer Noire is a ranged physical 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 Def stat.

Summer Noire Strengths

Boost to all stats when initiating attacks

Cocobow+ grants Summer Noire +2 Atk/Spd/Def/Res when initiating attacks. It is an in-combat buff that is very easy to stack with other boosts. Keep in mind that this only works when Noire initiates attacks and not when she is attacked in the enemy phase.

Can speed up the special cooldown of infantry units

Noire's C skill Infantry Rush 3 will give all infantry allies within two spaces the effect of Heavy Sword 3. In an all infantry team, this is a powerful skill for allowing all allies' specials to trigger.

Summer Noire Weaknesses

Low Res

Noire's Res only sits at 20 at Lv.40. This makes it easy for magic users to take her out. Be mindful of Noire's positioning in relation to magical units that can easily take her out.

Her Def is not the best as well. It sits at 27 at Lv. 40, which is far, but always look out for units that can score follow-up attacks on her.
