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/-HP

The best IVs for Norne are +Spd and -HP. A higher Spd stat allows Norne to deal with less follow-up attacks from foes, increasing her survivability More importantly, it helps her get more Spd, the most important stat for her. Her HP is of less importance to her and she can safely take it as a bane.

Norne Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Norne Roles

Norne - The Volunteer 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

Norne 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.

Norne Strengths

Volunteer Bow is a great defensive weapon

Norne received an exclusive weapon in Volunteer Bow and it makes her a generally bulky unit capable of tanking multiple attacks in succession.

This exclusive bow, when refined, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+8 to Norne during combat, inflicts Atk/Spd-5 and a Guard effect to her foe, and heals her for 7 HP post-combat.

Large bonus to Spd/Def when HP is below 80％

Norne's default A skill Brazen Spd/Def 3 will give her +7 Spd/Def when her HP gets below 80%. This not only gives her more power to score follow-up attacks, but it also provides her with excellent physical defenses even against fast units when she hits the HP threshold.

When combined with Spd/Def Link 3, she can get a bonus of +13 Spd/Def! Make sure to team her up with an ally that can trigger Spd/Def Link 3.

Guard Bow+'s defensive bonuses works well with the Spd/Def bonuses of Norne's other skills. As said, this makes her a perfect check to bow and dagger units.

Norne Weaknesses

Jack of all trades

Norne has a good balance of stats, but she does not excel in any one area compared to other more specialized heroes with clear roles.

This makes Norne a good general hero you can plug and play into multiple situations, but her role can always be performed better by other heroes.
