Say'ri - Chon'sin's Blade: Basic Information

Color / Weapon Type / Move Type
Rarity
What Kind of Character Are They? ・Refined weapon skill has built-in Distant Counter, percentage-based damage reduction, true damage reduction, and post-combat healing

Say'ri Skills at 5★


Might: 16  Range: 1
Accelerates Special Trigger (cooldown count -1). At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 50% unit can counterattack regardless of foe's range.

Cooldown Count = 3
Boosts damage dealt by 50% of unit’s Res.

If foe initiates combat, grants Atk/Spd +6 during combat and inflicts Special cooldown charge -1 on foe per attack. (Only highest value applied. Does not stack.)

If unit's Spd > foe's Spd, reduces damage from attacks during combat and from area-of-effect Specials (excluding Røkkr area-of-effect Specials) by percentage = difference between stats × 4 (max 40%). If unit initiates combat, unit moves 1 space away after combat.

Say'ri Best IVs

Recommended IVs

Stat Superboon/Superbane IV Recommendation
HP (18) HP Superbane ★★★☆☆
Atk (25) No Attack IV ★★★★☆
Spd (10) Spd Boon ★★★★★
Def (6) No Def IV ★★★☆☆
Res (8) No Res IV ★★☆☆☆

◯ = Stat gains +4 with a superboon, ✕= Stat goes down by -4 with a superbane, - = No assets or flaws

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.

+Spd/-Res

The best IVs for Say'ri are +Spd and -Res. A higher Spd stat allow Say'ri to get a ton of follow-up attacks on her foes. Additionally, her Spd is a superboon so you should take advantage of the +4 in the stat. Lastly, having a high Spd makes her tankier through Close Call 3. Her Res is a bit high, so she can afford a bane in that stat. Taking a bane in Def would put her physical defenses to dangerously low levels, and her HP is a superbane so this further justifies the bane in Res.

+Spd for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +Spd IV when merging Say'ri to 10. This boosts her offensive power by being able to execute follow-up attacks more frequently. It also boosts her defenses because of the effects of Close Call 3, and a higher Spd also makes her less susceptible to follow-up attacks.

Say'ri Best Weapon Refine

Effect of Say'ri's Refined Weapon

Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type)
SP: 400
Might: 16 Range: 1 HP: 3
Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, unit can counterattack regardless of foe's range. At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+4 to unit and reduces damage from foe's first attack by 7 during combat ("first attack" normally means only the first strike; for effects that grant "unit attacks twice," it means the first and second strikes).
If foe initiates combat or foe's HP ≥ 75% at start of combat, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+4 to unit, reduces damage from foe's first attack by 40% ("first attack" normally means only the first strike; for effects that grant "unit attacks twice," it means the first and second strikes), and grants Special cooldown charge +1 to unit per attack during combat (only highest value applied; does not stack), and restores 7 HP to unit after combat.
Arena Medal:500 Divine Dew:200

We recommend the Special Effect Refine for Amatsu

Refined Amatsu grants a Distant Counter effect, Atk/Spd/Def/Res+8 during combat, 7 true damage reduction on foe's first attack, 40% damage reduction on foe's first attack, Special cooldown charges per attack during combat, and 7 HP post-combat healing.

The two damage reduction effects work together by reducing the damage taken by 40% first, and then reducing the final amount by 7. These effects make Say'ri a deceptively bulky unit capable of withstanding most attacks.

Say'ri is a close physical attacker (range = 1). 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.

Say'ri Strengths

Amatsu has built-in Distant Counter and two damage reduction effects

Refined Amatsu grants a Distant Counter effect, Atk/Spd/Def/Res+8 during combat, 7 true damage reduction on foe's first attack, 40% damage reduction on foe's first attack, Special cooldown charges per attack during combat, and 7 HP post-combat healing.

The two damage reduction effects work together by reducing the damage taken by 40% first, and then reducing the final amount by 7. These effects make Say'ri a deceptively bulky unit capable of withstanding most attacks.

Atk/Spd Buff When Attacked

Say'ri's Kestrel Stance grants her Atk/Spd +6 when she is attacked by an enemy. It also inflicts -1 special cooldown charge on foe per attack. It synergizes with Iceberg and Amatsu making Say'ri a formidable unit in the enemy phase. Because of the Spd buff, it makes her less likely to be doubled and makes it easier for her to execute a follow-up attack on top of the counterattack. This makes her a great unit to bait foes in the enemy phase with.

Reduce Damage Through Spd

Close Call 3 reduces the damage taken by Say'ri if her Spd > foe's Spd. Because Kestrel Stance increases her Spd, she can be a deceptively tanky unit especially in the enemy phase.

Say'ri Weaknesses

Low Def

Say'ri's Def only sits at 23 at Lv. 40. Even though she can reduce damage using her skills, you should still pay attention to powerful blue physical attackers that can easily take down Say'ri.
