Kris (F) Skills at 5★

Spear of Shadow Might: 16　 Range: 1 Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count -1). If foe initiates combat or if foe's HP = 100% at start of combat, neutralizes penalties on unit and inflicts Atk/Spd/Def -5 on foe during combat

Moonbow Cooldown Count = 2 Treats foe's Def/Res as if reduced by 30% during combat.

Fury 4 Grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+4. After combat, deals 8 damage to unit.

Spurn 3 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 x 4 (max 40%). If unit's HP ≤ 75% and unit's attack triggers Special, deals +5 damage when Special triggers.

Rouse Spd/Res 3 At start of turn, if unit is not adjacent to an ally, grants Spd/Res +6 to unit for 1 turn.

Kris (F) Best IVs

Recommended IVs

Stat	Superboon/Superbane	IV Recommendation
HP (18)		★★★☆☆
Atk (25)		★★★★☆
Spd (10)		★★★★★
Def (8)		★★★☆☆
Res (6)		★★★☆☆

◯ = 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 Kris (F) are +Spd and -Res. A higher Spd stat allow Kris (F) 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 Spurn 3. Res is of lower priority and she can boost it with Rouse Spd/Res 3 so it is safe to take as a bane.

+Spd for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +Spd IV when merging Kris (F) 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 Spurn 3, and a higher Spd also makes her less susceptible to follow-up attacks.

Kris (F) Best Weapon Refine

Effect of Kris (F)'s Refined Weapon

Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type)
Spear of Shadow	SP: 400
Might: 16　Range: 1　HP: 3 Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). If foe initiates combat or if foe's HP ≥ 75% at start of combat, neutralizes unit's penalties, inflicts Atk/Spd/Def-5 on foe, and neutralizes effects that grant "Special cooldown charge +X" to foe or inflict "Special cooldown charge -X" on unit during combat. At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, 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 deals damage = 20% of unit's Spd during combat (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and also, when unit deals damage to foe, restores 7 HP to unit (triggers even if 0 damage is dealt). ：500　：200

We recommend the Special Effect Refine for Spear of Shadow

Refined Spear of Shadow neutralizes penalties on Kris, inflicts Atk/Spd/Def-5 on her foe during combat, grants her a Tempo effect, Atk/Spd/Def/Res+4, 40% damage reduction on her foe's first attack, and true damage equal to 20% of her Spd, and 7 HP healing per attack during combat.

These effects help Kris both offensively and defensively, making her a great all-around unit.

Kris (F) Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Kris (F) Roles

Kris - Unsung Hero 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

Kris (F) 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.

Kris (F) Strengths

Spear of Shadow is a powerful weapon

On top of accelerating Kris' special trigger, Spear of Shadow also neutralizes penalties on Kris and inflicts -5 Atk/Spd/Def on her enemy if foe initiates combat or if foe's HP is at 100% at the start of combat. These effects makes Kris a formidable offensive unit in both phases of a turn.

When refined, Spear of Shadow neutralizes penalties on Kris, inflicts Atk/Spd/Def-5 on her foe during combat, grants her a Tempo effect, Atk/Spd/Def/Res+4, 40% damage reduction on her foe's first attack, and true damage equal to 20% of her Spd, and 7 HP healing per attack during combat.

Kris (F) Weaknesses

Low Res

Kris (F)'s Res only sits at 25 at Lv.40. This makes it easy for magic users to take her out. Be mindful of Kris (F)'s positioning in relation to magical units that can easily take her out.
