Res (8) No Res IV ★★★★☆

◯ = 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.

+Atk/-Def

The best IVs for Mist are +Atk and -Def. She will find herself in situations that require her to attack foes because of Slow+ so a +Atk IV would be very useful. Additionally, Recover+ relies on her Atk skill to heal high amounts! Her Def is really low and it is not really important for her so it is the best bane you can take on her. Just make sure to stay clear from physical units who can counterattack her as much as possible!

How to Use, Explanation

Elena's Staff gives some much needed utility for Mist as she did not carry uniqueness before it. With it, she can inflict an aura debuff, an after combat debuff, and with the spec. eff. refine, a Panic. The A skill should be used to get some bulk. Wings of Mercy 3 is taken in the B slot so that she can position herslef to inflict lots of debuffs. The C and S slots are very flexible, but you can never go wrong with double Savage Blow 3. Since she will be inflicting debuffs after attacking with her weapon, you might as well get some AoE damage with it.

Mist Best Weapon Refine

Effect of Mists's Refined Weapon

Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type)
SP: 400
Might: 14 Range: 2 HP:
Grants Res+3. Foe cannot counterattack. At start of turn, inflicts Atk/Spd-7 on nearest foes within 4 spaces through their next actions. After combat, if unit attacked, inflicts Atk/Spd-7 on target and foes within 2 spaces of target through their next actions.

At start of turn, inflicts【Panic】on nearest foes within 4 spaces through their next actions. After combat, if unit attacked, inflicts【Panic】on target and foes within 2 spaces of target through their next actions.
Arena Medal:500 Divine Dew:200

We recommend the Special Effect Refine for Elena's Staff

This is a huge upgrade over the default Slow+. The base effect grants Dazzling Staff by default and it inflicts an -7 Atk/Spd debuff versus Slow's debuff which only affects Spd.

If Mist gets access to the special effect refine, she can easily inflict 【Panic】 on enemy teams. This effect can win her a spot over other staff infantry units.

Mist is a ranged magic 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.

Mist Strengths

AoE debuff machine

Originally a rather plain option for a 5 star healer, Mist received a massive upgrade to her supporting capabilities thanks to Elena's Staff. In addition to a flat +3 Resistance boost and a Dazzling Staff effect, Mist can now inflict -7 Atk/Spd on a target unit and all other foes within 2 spaces of said unit.

When refined even further Elena's Staff inflicts the Panic debuff on the closest enemy within 4 spaces at the start of combat, as well as applying Panic to a target unit and all other foes within 2 spaces of the unit whenever Mist attacks. The amount of utility this weapon provides can greatly swing damage output and follow-up potential towards your team's favor.

Can heal allies with Recover+

Recover+ is a straightforward skill that restores an ally's health whose value is equivalent to 50% of their Atk +10. It does not rely on complex conditions for its heal value so you will be always be able to heal a fair amount.

Defensive buff for Mist's team

Spur Def/Res 2 grants adjacent allies +3 Def/Res during combat. Both these skills ensure that your team will have a bit more bulk against units of all types.

Mist Weakness

Low Def and Spd

Mist has very low Def and somewhat low Spd. Please be mindful of Mist's positioning in relation to physical units that can easily take her out.

Oh, {Summoner}!
You caught me in the middle of working on laundry. It’s something that really helps me relax.
You know I’m not that comfortable being in the middle of battles, but I do like helping everyone.
I’ve come to love being here with so many people. You must have seen that I was nervous at first.
Some of the Heroes seemed a bit intimidating! But I knew I could trust you from the very start.
I don’t really know why, but I knew it from the second I saw you. Anyway, I’ve been glad to work hard for you.
So, right... What was my point? Oh, yes. Thanks! And you can count on me to keep doing my best!
