Ninja Laevatein Best IVs

Recommended IVs

Stat Superboon/Superbane IV Recommendation
HP (19) HP Superbane ★★★☆☆
Atk (23) Attack Boon ★★★★★
Spd (0) Spd Bane ★☆☆☆☆
Def (7) Def Boon ★★★★☆
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.

+Atk/-Spd

The best IVs for Ninja Laevatein are +Atk and -Spd. Since her weapon can nail second strikes, getting a +Atk IV would be best in significantly increasing her damage. Her Spd very low and is of less importance so it can be safely taken as his bane.

Additionally, her +Atk is a superboon so you should take advantage of it as much as possible.

+Atk for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +Atk IV when merging Ninja Laevatein to 10. This is for the same reasons as above and at this point, she can take out a lot of units out in one action! With Vantage 3, she becomes very deadly in the enemy phase as enemies will have to survive 2 powerful strikes first before getting a chance to damage her. This is pretty similar to how Altina works so get it on her as it is a very inexpensive skill.

Ninja Laevatein Best Weapon Refine

Effect of Ninja Laevatein's Refined Weapon

Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type)
SP: 400
Might: 11 Range: 1 HP: 3
Inflicts Spd-5 and grants Atk/Def/Res+5. Unit attacks twice. (Even if foe initiates combat, unit attacks twice). Grants Atk+X to unit, inflicts Atk-X on foe, and unit makes a guaranteed follow-up attack during combat (X = highest total bonuses among unit and allies within 3 spaces of unit).
Enables【Canto (2)】.
At start of turn, if unit is within 2 spaces of an ally, grants Atk/Def+6, "neutralizes foe's bonuses during combat," and 【Null Panic】 to unit and allies within 2 spaces of unit for 1 turn.
If unit is within 3 spaces of an ally, grants Atk+6 to unit, inflicts Atk-6 on foe, and reduces the percentage of foe's non-Special "reduce damage by X%" skills by 50% during combat (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and restores 7 HP to unit after combat.
Arena Medal:500 Divine Dew:200

We recommend the Special Effect Refine for Twin Star Axe

Refined Twin Star Axe innately grants 【Canto (2)】, Atk/Def/Res+5 and a brave effect to Ninja Laevatein. It does inflict Spd-5, but her Spd is negligible so this drawback doesn't matter.

Refined Twin Star Axe also grants Laevatein and her nearby allies Atk/Def+6, neutralizes foe's bonuses during combat, and 【Null Panic】 at the start of each turn.

In combat, refined Twin Star Axe grants Laevatein a guaranteed follow-up attack, an Atk bonus equal to 6 + the highest total bonuses among Laevatein and nearby allies, inflicts an Atk penalty on her foe equal to the same amount, and grants Laevatein 50% damage reduction piercing and 7 HP post-combat healing.

The stat swings offered by refined Twin Star Axe on top of all the other effects make it a powerful refine to equip.

Ninja Laevatein Strengths

Refined Twin Star Axe has multiple offensive effects

When refined, Twin Star Axe innately grants 【Canto (2)】, Atk/Def/Res+5 and a brave effect to Ninja Laevatein. It does inflict Spd-5, but her Spd is negligible so this drawback doesn't matter.

Refined Twin Star Axe also grants Laevatein and her nearby allies Atk/Def+6, neutralizes foe's bonuses during combat, and 【Null Panic】 at the start of each turn.

In combat, refined Twin Star Axe grants Laevatein a guaranteed follow-up attack, an Atk bonus equal to 6 + the highest total bonuses among Laevatein and nearby allies, inflicts an Atk penalty on her foe equal to the same amount, and grants Laevatein 50% damage reduction piercing and 7 HP post-combat healing.

The stat swings offered by refined Twin Star Axe on top of all the other effects make it a powerful refine to equip.

Ninja Laevatein Weaknesses

Low Spd

Ninja Laevatein has low Spd especially if she is using Twin Star Axe. Though she has enough power to not rely on follow-up attacks, watch out for high-powered enemies that can nail follow-up attacks on her.

Weak to bows

As a flying unit, Ninja Laevatein 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.
