Guinivere Best IVs

Recommended IVs

Stat Superboon/Superbane IV Recommendation
HP (17) HP Superboon ★★★☆☆
Atk (23) No Attack IV ★★★★★
Spd (10) Spd Boon ★★★★★
Def (3) Def Bane ★★★☆☆
Res (13) 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.

+Spd/-Res

The best IVs for Guinivere are +Spd and -Res. A higher Spd stat allows Guinivere to get a ton of follow-up attacks on her foes. It also protects her from hostile follow-up attacks Additionally, her Spd is a superboon so you should take advantage of that as much as possible. Her Res is monstrous so she can take a little bit of points off it as taking a Def bane would not be wise because it is a superbane. Be sure to get a merge as soon as possible though!

+Spd for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +Spd IV when merging Guinivere to 10 to prevent as many follow-up attacks as possible.

Guinivere Best Weapon Refine

Effect of Guinivere's Refined Weapon

Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type)
SP: 400
Might: 14 Range: 2 HP:
Grants Res+3. Effective against magic foes. Restores 7 HP to unit and allies within 2 spaces of unit after combat.
If unit initiates combat or if unit is within 2 spaces of an ally, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5, disables foe's effects that "calculate damage using the lower of foe's Def or Res," unit deals X damage (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and reduces damage from foe's first attack by 40% of X during combat (X = highest total bonuses among unit and allies within 2 spaces of unit; "first attack" normally means only the first strike; for effects that grant "unit attacks twice," it means the first and second strikes).
At start of turn, if unit is within 2 spaces of an ally, grants Spd/Res+6 and "neutralizes penalties on unit during combat" to unit and allies within 2 spaces of unit for 1 turn.
If foe initiates combat or foe's HP ≥ 75% at start of combat, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5 to unit, neutralizes effects that inflict "Special cooldown charge -X" on unit, and inflicts Special cooldown charge -1 on foe per attack during combat (only highest value applied; does not stack).

Guinivere is a ranged magic attacker (range = 2). 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.

Guinivere Strengths

Refined Aureola improves survivability of Guinivere and her allies

Refined Aureola grants Spd/Res+6, a penalty neutralization effect and 7 HP post-combat healing to Guinivere and nearby allies at the start of each turn, providing decent support and improving overall bulk to Guinivere and her allies.

In combat, refined Aureola grants Guinivere Atk/Spd/Def/Res+10, bonus true damage and first attack damage reduction based on highest total bonuses among Guinivere and nearby allies, offensive Tempo, and a Guard effect during combat, and neutralizes adaptive damage effects applied to Guinivere.

This refined weapon can fulfill multiple roles and be useful at all times.

Guinivere Weaknesses

Low Def

Guinivere's Def only sits at 16 at Lv.40. This makes it easy for physical units to take her out. Be mindful of Guinivere's positioning in relation to physical units that can easily take her out.

This should also make her very vulnerable to adaptive damage, but since her weapon skill disables it, you can choose not to worry about it.

Value of Skills ★★★☆☆

Inheriting Lull Atk/Res 3 or Joint Drive Res

Guinivere can be used to inherit Lull Atk/Res 3 or Joint Drive Res. However, Guinivere is a very powerful hero that can provide lots of firepower for your lineups. She also makes for a great check against tome units. Please think carefully before fodderring her off.
