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, Ena will always have neutral IVs by default. The only way to access IVs for this unit is through using Trait Fruits.

+Atk/-Spd

The best IVs for Ena are +Atk and -Spd. She is mainly an offensive unit, but she does not depend on Spd for follow-up attacks to do so. Maximize her Atk stat to deal the most damage with Ena!

+Atk for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +Atk IV when merging Ena to 10. This is for the same reasons as above. At this point, she can take out lots of units with 1 hit especially if they are ranged foes. You can also go for a +Res Ena for a tankier build.

Ena Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Ena Roles

Ena - Autumn Tactician 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

Ena is a close magic 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 Res stat.

Ena Strengths

Pale Breth ensures that Ena's Atk/Def is at optimum levels

Pale Breath+ neutralizes Atk/Def penalties on Ena and on top of that, it grants +5 Atk/Def to her. This only activates if Ena is within 2 spaces of an ally so always pay attention to her positioning in relation to your other units.

Pale Breath+ also grants Ena adaptive damage against ranged foes. This adaptive damage works on both phases. Try to aim for match-ups that make use of this effect. Find a ranged target and dive right in!

Fling Allies into Combat and Buff Them Simultaneously!

Def/Res Link 3 buffs Ena and any ally who uses a movement-assist skill or receives one from Ena by +6 Def/Res. Since Ena has access to Swap, she can make use of this skill to push an ally deep into enemy danger zones while providing them with buffs. The buffs will be enough to make them sturdier upon being in the danger zones.

It can also be used to help an ally retreat from an ememy who can easily take them down. Since Ena is also affected by the buff, she too can be flung into danger zones with skills like Shove or Smite!

Buffs Dragon Units' Def and Res

Ena's C skill, Ward Dragons grants +4 Def/Res to all dragon allies within 2 spaces of Ena. This allows her to provide some defensive support in all-dragon teams. It fully stacks with the bonuses fron Def/Res Link!

Ena Weaknesses

Weak to Dragon Effective Weapons

Ena takes 1.5x damage from dragon-effective weapons like Falchion or Naga, and one blow from these types of weapons is sure to take her down. Make sure you know what weapons you are up against before hopping too far into the line of battle!
