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.

Neutral IVs by default!

As a hero obtainable only through Tempest Trials, Summer Lorenz will always have neutral IVs by default. The only way to access IVs for this unit is through using Trait Fruits.

+Atk/-Def

The best IVs for Summer Lorenz are +Atk and -Def. Lorenz does not rely on follow-up attacks to score more damage so a +Atk IV is best in increasing his overall damage output. His Def is of less importance so it can be safely taken as a bane.

+Spd for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +Spd IV when merging Summer Lorenz to 10. At +10 Merges, Summer Lorenz' Atk will reach such high levels that pushing it up higher is a waste, considering he has access to Conch Boquet+ and Fire Boost 3, two kills that increse his Atk stat. At this point, it would be better to opt with a +Spd IV instead to help him take less follow-up attacks and allow him to make some follow-up attacks on his own. Follow-up attacks also speed up special activation so make sure to get an offensive special skill on Lorenz.

With it, he will reach 38 Spd at max merges so he still needs some to support to score consistent follow-up attacks. If you prefer a more defensive Lorenz, you can take advantage of his only superboon and go for a +Def IV.

Summer Lorenz Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Summer Lorenz Roles

Lorenz - Highborn Heat 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

Summer Lorenz is a ranged magic attacker (range = 2). Therefore, when not accounting for the Weapon Triangle, the amount of damage he deals will be equivalent to his Atk minus the foe's Res stat.

Summer Lorenz Strengths

Weapon provides buffs and heals once per phase

Conch Bouquet+ grants Lorenz +5 Atk/Res and restores 7 HP to him after combat every first battle of a turn. It can only be activated once per turn, but it is pretty helpful nonetheless. If Lorenz needs a boost to take a priority unit down, he can bait enemies into attacking him while Conch Bouquet+ is still available in said turn.

Buffs Atk if HP is Higher than Foe's

Fire Boost 3 grants +6 Atk if Lorenz' HP ≥ foe’s HP+3. Unlike Death Blow 3, it also activates when Lorenz performs counterattacks, making it a goood enemy phase skill as well. This works well with Conch Boquet+ and Even Res Wave 3 as both those skills work in the enemy phase. It can be said that Summer Lorenz is a decent unit in the enemy phase when going against magic-based foes.

If you are planning to invest on Lorenz and heavily rely on this skill, it is pretty easy to increase his HP as copies of him will soon be available through Heroic Grails.

Can buff himself and nearby allies' Res

His default C skill Even Res Wave 3 grants Res +6 to unit and adjacent allies at the start of even-numbered turns. Wave skills provide buffs even to the user, despite being C-slot skills, which is a huge advantage to using them. Use the even-numbered turns buff to your advantage, and strike when the time is right!

Summer Lorenz Weaknesses

No Standout Stat

Lorenz as a red tome user, has no glaring weakness when it comes to stats, but he also does not have stand out stats. Consider inheriting powerful offensive skills onto him if you plan to use him as an offensive magic unit
