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/-Spd

Kiria's best IVs are +Atk and -Spd. With a superboon in Atk, Kiria gets +4 with an Atk asset, allowing her to max out the power she deals with each hit. Her Spd stat is naturally quite low, so it is the preferred dump stat.

+Atk if doing a +10 Merge Project

If you intend to build a +10 Merge Kiria, +Atk is the best IV. With a +Atk boon, Kiria reaches an Atk of 66, meaning she can deal massive damage with each blow. She also has many skills centered on raising this stat, increasing her ability to OHKO her foes.

Kiria Best Builds

Spiraling Kiria

HOT
： Mirage Rod ： Reposition ： Blazing Thunder ： -	： Fury 4 ： Special Spiral 3 ： Res Ploy 3 ： Heavy Blade 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

This build is centered around Special Spiral. When Blazing Thunder triggers, the effects of Heavy Blade and Special Spiral will allow for a special on each attack. This highly offensive build uses Fury, Heavy Blade and Res Ploy to tear down foes.

Budget Kiria

： Mirage Rod ： Reposition ： Iceberg ： -

： Atk/Res Solo 3 ： Lull Atk/Res 3 ： Threaten Res 3 ： Quick Riposte 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

This is a base build for Kiria. With the Seal Quick Riposte, she can take down magic foes who initiate combat much more easily. When she is initiating combat, the effects of Threaten Res will cast a debuff and make it easier to take down foes.

Fortress Kiria

： Mirage Rod ： Reposition ： Aether ： -

： Fort. Def/Res 3 ： Lull Atk/Res 3 ： Pulse Smoke 3 ： Atk/Def Solo 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

This build is designed to make Kiria into a durable tank for both physical and magical damage. Having Atk/Def Solo 3 will add to her bulk while she's alone, making her harder for units with physical damage weapons to take down.

Kiria Best Weapon Refine

Effect of Kiria's Refined Weapon

Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type)
Mirage Rod	SP: 400
Might: 14　Range: 2　HP: Grants Atk+3. Inflicts Atk/Res-6 on foes within 2 spaces during combat. At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, unit makes a guaranteed follow-up attack and reduces damage from foe's follow-up attack by 75% ("follow-up attack" normally means the second strike; for effects that grant "unit attacks twice," it means the third and fourth strikes). At start of turn, inflicts Atk/Res-6 and 【Sabotage】 on foes within 3 columns or 3 rows centered on unit through their next actions. If foe initiates combat or if foe's HP ≥ 75% at start of combat, inflicts Atk/Res-5 on foe during combat, deals damage = 15% of unit's Atk (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and restores 7 HP to unit after combat. ：500　：200

We recommend the Special Effect Refine for Mirage Rod

Kiria's refined Mirage Rod can heavily inflict Res penalties on foes around her. If surrounded from both 3 columns or 3 rows, she instantly inflicts Atk/Res-6 and 【Sabotage】 on these foes. During combat, she will also deal more damage to foes with HP ≥ 75% and inflict Atk/Res-5. Additionally, she heals +7 HP after every combat, increasing her survivability.

Kiria Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Kiria Roles

Kiria - Cool Façade 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

Kiria 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.

Kiria Strengths

Inflicts multiple penalties on the foes' Atk and Res stats

Kiria's exclusive weapon skill Mirage Rod will inflict Atk/Res-6 on foes within two spaces during combat. Her B Skill Lull Atk/Res 3 inflicts another Atk/Res-3 on foes during combat, in addition to nullifying any active bonuses foes have on Atk or Res during comabt. These two skills stack so that Kiria essentially always goes into combat with foes who have an Atk/Res-9 penalty cast on them.

Grants bonuses to her own Atk and Res stats

Kiria's A skill Atk/Res Solo will give her Atk/Res+6 when she is not adjacent to another ally. In addition to increasing her own damage output through Atk, this higher Res will lead to higher damage output when her special, Iceberg, triggers.

Kiria Weaknesses

Low Spd stat

Kiria has a low Spd stat, so she will often take follow-up attacks from foes. Without help from any other skills, her Def stat is not really high enough to withstand many hits from foes, so it is not too hard to OHKO her. In particular, she should watch out for physical attackers.

Kiria as a Source Hero

Value of Skills	★★★★★

Inheriting Atk/Res Solo or Lull Atk/Res

Kiria can be used to inheritbthe skills Atk/Res Solo and Lull Atk/Res. These are both rare and useful skills, but as Kiria is quite a powerful unit on her own, we recommend keeping and building at least one Kiria before foddering off or merging any duplicates.
