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 Seteth are +Spd and -Res. A higher Spd stat allows Seteth to get a ton of follow-up attacks on his foes. It also protects him from hostile follow-up attacks. His Res of is less importance and thus safe to be taken as a bane.

+Spd for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +Spd IV when merging Seteth to +10. Boosting Spd can help prevent follow-up attacks from Seteth's foes which may mean the difference between surviving one attack or being defeated by two or more attacks during combat. Spd powercreep has essentially kicked Seteth off the high Spd tiers, and he will be reliant on Spd investment to keep up with fast metagame foes.

Seteth Best Weapon Refine

Effect of Seteth's Refined Weapon

Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type)
Spear of Assal	SP: 400
Might: 16　Range: 1　HP: 3 Effective against cavalry foes. Grants Spd+3. If unit is within 3 spaces of an ally, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+4 to unit and neutralizes foe's bonuses (from skills like Fortify, Rally, etc.) during combat. Grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+4 to allies within 3 spaces of unit and neutralizes foe's bonuses (from skills like Fortify, Rally, etc.) during their combat. If unit is within 3 spaces of an ally, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+4 to unit, unit deals +7 damage (excluding area-of-effect Specials), 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), and restores 7 HP to unit after combat. For allies within 3 spaces of unit, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+4 to ally, ally deals +7 damage (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and reduces damage from foe's first attack by 7 during their combat ("first attack" normally means only the first strike; for effects that grant "unit attacks twice," it means the first and second strikes). ：500　：200

We recommend the Special Effect Refine for Spear of Assal

Refined Spear of Assal grants Seteth Cavalry-effective damage, 7 HP post-combat healing, and grants both Seteth and his allies within 3 spaces Atk/Spd/Def/Res+8, +7 damage during combat, 7 true damage reduction on foe's first attack, and neutralizes foe's bonuses during combat.

This refine essentially improves upon its base effects and grants nearly the entire weapon to Seteth's allies, providing great support which stacks with other support skills onto Seteth's passive skill slots.

Seteth Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Seteth Roles

Seteth - Seiros Adherent 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

Seteth is a close physical attacker (range = 1). Therefore, when not accounting for the Weapon Triangle, the amount of damage he deals will be equivalent to his Atk minus the foe's Def stat.

Seteth Strengths

Refined Spear of Assal is a great support weapon

Seteth's base Spear of Assal grants Atk/Spd+4 to Seteth, neutralizes his foe's bonuses to Atk/Spd, and grants Atk/Spd+4 to nearby allies.

When refined, Spear of Assal instead grants Seteth Cavalry-effective damage, 7 HP post-combat healing, and grants both Seteth and his allies within 3 spaces Atk/Spd/Def/Res+8, +7 damage during combat, 7 true damage reduction on foe's first attack, and neutralizes foe's bonuses during combat.

This refine essentially improves upon its base effects and grants nearly the entire weapon to Seteth's allies, providing great support which stacks with other support skills onto Seteth's passive skill slots.

Seteth Weaknesses

Weak to bows

As a flying unit, Seteth takes 1.5x damage from bows and weapons effective on flying units. Be sure to keep them out of the range of archers and leave them to other units.

Inheriting Brazen Atk/Spd 3 or Swap

Seteth can be used to inherit Brazen Atk/Spd 3 or Swap. However, Seteth is a very useful hero that can both be an offensive and support unt. We recommend training and building him instead.
