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 Larum are +Spd and -HP. A higher Spd stat allows Larum to prevent follow-up attacks and help her make follow-up attacks on her own. On top of that, she will gain +4 from a boon, making it an excellent option. HP is much lower priority, and can be taken as your bane.

+Spd for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +Spd IV when merging Larum to 10. With a +Spd IV, Eirika's Spd stat will reach 47 with 10 merges, which makes it even easier for Larum to get follow-up attacks on her foes. If you want to focus more on the damage per attack, you can use a +Atk Larum as a base.

Larum Best Builds

Anti-Dragon Larum

HOT
： Dragonslasher+ ： Dance ： Ruptured Sky ： -	： Swift Sparrow 3 ： Mystic Boost 3 ： Joint Hone Atk ： Sturdy Blow 2 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

This is a premium build that builds around her weapon, Dragonslasher+. We take Mystic Boost 3 in the B slot to avoid adaptive damage. You can also take MB3 in the Seal slot instead and fill the B slot with a Lull skill.

Desperation-Fury Larum

： Dragonslasher+ ： Dance ： Moonbow ： -

： Atk/Spd Push 4 ： Desperation 3 ： Time's Pulse 3 ： Brazen Atk/Spd 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

A high investment build for Larum! It maximizes her Atk/Spd, and overall damage when not refreshing allies. Atk/Spd Push 3 helps bring her down to Desperation-Brazen ranges.

Budget Larum

： Dragonslasher+ ： Dance ： Moonbow ： -

： Attack +3 ： Wings of Mercy 3 ： Spd/Res Gap 3 ： Flashing Blade 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

A simple budget build for Larum! This set gives her a balance of support and offense. If Flashing Blade 3 is on another unit, just get anything that raises the damage she can deal.

Vantage Larum

HOT
： Broadleaf Fan+ ： Dance ： Glimmer ： -	： Atk/Res Push 4 ： Vantage 3 ： Atk Smoke 3 ： Spd Smoke 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

This build allows Larum to switch to an offensive approach when necessary through the effects of Broadleaf Fan+. Atk/Res Push 4 boosts Larum's attack while still providing recoil to bring her to Vantage range quickly. The dual smoke skills work in tandem with her weapon to stack debuffs on her opponents. Fury 4 may be used instead of Atk/Res Push 4 if boosting Larum's overall bulk is preferred over focusing on her attack and resistance.

Larum Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Larum Roles

Larum - Sprightly Dancer 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

Larum 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.

Larum Strengths

Refreshes her allies' actions

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 Larum to become a part of many team compositions.

Dragon-effective weapon with an AoE Debuff

Dragonslasher+ deals bonus damage against dragonstone users, and it also inflicts -7 Def/Res to target unit and all foes within 2 spaces of the target unit. It is another way Larum can support her team by debuffing the enemy. This makes her fit with offensive units that can take advantage of the -7 Def/Res debuff.

Spd/Res Gap 3 Buffs Strongest Units

Spd/Res Gap 3 grants a +5 Spd/Res to your ally who has the highest total Spd + Res stat on the map. In addition to the effects of Dragonslasher+, Larum can guarantee that your speediest unit is able to make easy follow-up attacks. Knowing your team's stats beforehand makes this a super easy buff to cast.

Larum Weaknesses

Low Durability

Larum has a low Def stat. If she is attacked by a physical unit with a decent Atk stat, there is a high possibility that she will be taken out. Always be mindful of Larum's positioning in relation to the enemies who pose a threat to her in the enemy phase, especially those with Brave Weapons.

Larum as a Source Hero

Value of Skills	★★★★☆

Inheriting Dragonslasher+

Larum can be used to inherit the skill Dragonslasher+. However, Larum is a powerful offensive unit who also has Dance. There are only a few characters who have skills like dance and possess offensive power at the same time. Because of this, we recommend training and building Larum instead.
