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 Soiree Ishtar are +Atk and -Def. A +Atk IV allows her to best utilize the effects of Mögþrasir. Her mediocre Def stat is safe to take Def as a superbane, although be aware that it will lead to -4 in the stat. Just make sure to keep her out of reach of physical units especially bow wielders.

Soiree Ishtar Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Soiree Ishtar Roles

Ishtar - Thunder's Waltz 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

Soiree Ishtar 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.

Soiree Ishtar Strengths

Flying Refresher-Assist Unit

Dance is an assist skill that allows the target ally to take another action. Because of this, your allies can move and attack twice to take down foes, or attack and move back to the safe zone so that they won't be taken out during the enemy phase. It has high strategic value and it allows Soiree Ishtar to become a part of many team compositions.

Additionally, Soiree Ishtar possesses flying movement, so she has less restrictions on movement. This makes her a lot easier to position compared to the more common infantry refresher-assist units.

Attack Twice with Mögþrasir

Mögþrasir is similar to brave weapons as it allows Soiree Ishtar to attack twice in one action, but it only inflicts -2 Spd instead of -5 Spd. Since Soiree Ishtar has fairly high Spd and has access to Swift Sparrow 3 and Desperation 3, you can aim for quad attacks with enough investment! This makes Soiree Ishtar a very versatile unit as she can both prove to be a reliable offensive option or a standard refresher-assist unit.

Improves Mobility of Flying Allies

Air Orders 3 allows flying allies adjacent to Soiree Ishtar at the start of a turn the ability to move to a space adjacent to allies within 2 spaces of them. This ability greatly increases the mobility of flying allies. This also provides a lot of utility as you can use it to both fling allies into battle or position them in a safer place.

Soiree Ishtar Weaknesses

Weak to bows

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

Heroes with Effective Skills

Low Def

Soiree Ishtar's Def only sits at 16 at Lv.40. This makes it easy for physical units to take her out. Be mindful of Soiree Ishtar's positioning in relation to physical units that can easily take her out. As she is a refresher-assist unit, make sure that her bulkier allies are always in front of her in relation to enemy units.

Soiree Ishtar as a Source Hero

Value of Skills	★★★★★

Inheriting Swift Sparrow 3

Soiree Ishtar can be used to inherit the skill Swift Sparrow 3. Swift Sparrow 3 is a valuable skill on many heroes but Soiree Ishtar can prove to be a powerful refresher-assist flying support that can also provide some offensive firepower if needed. Please think carefully and consider all your resources before fodderring off Soiree Ishtar for this skill.

Alternatively, Air Orders 3 can also be as skill that you can fodder onto someone else. In some cases, choosing to inherit Air Orders 2 and Swift Sparrow 2 onto a flying ace can be a good idea depending on your goals and the situation at hand.
