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 and -Def

Leila's best IVs are +Atk and -Def. With Leila's increadibly high Spd, which is boosted more through Life and Death 4, she will usually be able to get a follow-up attack, so it would be better to instead focus on increasing her damage output. With her low Def stat, this is a unit that will want to avoid taking taking damage as much as possible anyway, so -Def is the ideal bane.

+Atk for a +10 Merge

If you are building a +10 merged Leila, we recommend a +Atk IV. Increasing her Spd stat is just overkill, so instead you should focus on increasing the power she can deal with each attack, which will make it easier for her to take her foes down. If you are not going to use Life and Death with Leila, you may want to opt for +Spd instead, depending on the build you run.

Leila Best Builds

Desperate Push Leila

HOT
： Constant Dagger ： Reposition ： Moonbow ： -	： Atk/Spd Push 4 ： Desperation 3 ： Atk/Spd Oath 3 ： Heavy Blade 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

This is a very high budget build for Leila. This abandons a semi-support role for a full-on primary offensive option. Atk/Spd Push 4 helps her get into Desperation 3 range and from there, it's over for the enemy units. Atk/Spd Oath 3 is compatible with her prf. weapon's effects that's why its the best option for the C slot. For the S slot, you can also go for Flashing Blade 3 if Heavy Blade 3 is currently on another unit.

Poisonous Leila

： Constant Dagger ： Reposition ： Moonbow ： -

： Life and Death 4 ： Poison Strike 3 ： Savage Blow 3 ： Savage Blow 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

This ditches her base kit, and aims to deal lots of chip damage to enemy units. The massive chip damage that will occur combined with her debuffs and in-combat damage will make it very easy for her allies to swoop-in and finish the job.

Budget Leila

： Constant Dagger ： Rally Atk/Spd+ ： Moonbow ： -

： Life and Death 4 ： Atk/Def Ruse 3 ： Atk Smoke 3 ： Spd Smoke 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

This is a budget build for Leila that stays faithful to her base kit. Get the standard Moonbow to improve the damage she can deal. By taking Spd Smoke 3, she is able to debuff all enemy stats after she exits combat.

Leila Best Weapon Refine

Effect of Leila's Refined Weapon

Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type)
Constant Dagger	SP: 400
Might: 14　Range: 2　HP: Grants Spd+3. If unit initiates combat or is within 2 spaces of an ally, grants Atk/Spd+5 to unit during combat and deals damage = 10% of unit's Spd (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and also, if unit's Spd > foe's Spd or unit is within 2 spaces of unit's support partner (if any), foe cannot counterattack. If unit initiates combat and unit is within 2 spaces of support partner, unit and support partner swap spaces after combat (if unit is within 2 spaces of more than one support partner, swap does not occur). At start of turn, inflicts Spd/Def-6 and 【Discord】 on closest foes within 5 spaces and any foe within 2 spaces of those foes through their next actions. At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants Atk/Spd+5 and Special cooldown charge +1 to unit per attack during combat (only highest value applied; does not stack), and after combat, if unit initiated combat and attacked, deals 7 damage to target and foes within 2 spaces of target. ：500　：200

We recommend the Special Effect Refine for Constant Dagger

The new refine of Leila's Constant Dagger greatly improves her offenses, allowing her to inflict Spd/Def-6 and more with 【Discord】. In addition, she gains additional buffs, including cooldown charges and an Atk/Spd bonus in every combat. Constant Dagger also now now features a built-in Savage Blow 3 which helps her apply damage to all nearby foes after every combat.

Leila Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Leila Roles

Leila - Rose Amid Fangs 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

Leila 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.

Leila Strengths

Prevents enemy counterattacks with a nearby support ally

Leila's Constant Dagger weapon skill will prevent an enemy from making a counterattack attack when a support ally is within two spaces of Leila. After combat, Leila and the support partner swap spaces, which will allow that ally to take down the weakened foe.

Gains a bonus when initiating combat

Constant Dagger also gives Leila a +5 Atk/Spd buff when initiating combat. This works even if there is no nearby support ally, and for the most part, this unit will function better when used in the attack phase.

Can support allies with buffs and debuffs and foes

With the skills Rally Atk/Spd+ and Atk/Def Ruse 3, Leila can give an ally Atk/Spd+6 while simultaneously inflicting Atk/Def-5 on foes within all cardinal directions. This means that Leila can benefit from having a support ally on the team, and she can also fill the role herself.

Leila Weaknesses

Cannot take much of a beating

Leila has low defensive stats, and that is made even worse when Life and Death 4 is equipped. One hit from an enemy is usually all it will take to eliminate her. Play to her strengths, and move her around so that she can remain out of the foes' reach and avoid enemy attacks.

Value of Skills	★★★★★

Inheriting Life and Death 4 and Atk/Def Ruse

Leila can be used to inherit Life and Death 4 and Atk/Def Ruse 3. They can actually be inherited simultaneously if you first inherit Life and Death 1-3 from another 4 Star unit. However, Leila is overall a pretty good unit, so you may be better off leveling her up and building her instead.
