Color / Weapon Type / Move Type
Rarity
What Kind of Character Are They? ・Refined Hotshot Lance scales in relation to Farina's Dragonflower enhancements and grants bonus stats, true damage, true damage reduction, and long-distance support for herself and allies.

Farina Skills at 5★


Might: 16  Range: 1
Special cooldown count -1. At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants bonus to Atk/Spd/Def/Res during combat based on the number of times unit has been enhanced using Dragonflowers. (Five or more times grants +7, four times grants +6, three times grants +5 and two or fewer times grants +4).
At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25% and the unit has been enhanced using Dragonflowers three or more times, neutralizes foe's bonuses (from skills like Fortify, Rally, etc.) during combat.

Range: 1
Moves adjacent ally to opposite side of unit.

At start of combat, if foe's HP=100% or if【Penalty】is active on foe, grants Atk/Spd+7 to unit during combat. At start of combat, if foe's HP=100% and【Penalty】is active on foe, grants an additional Atk/Spd+2 to unit during combat.
【Penalty】
All effects that last "on foe through its next action." Includes penalties inflicted by a skill like Panic or Threaten and negative status effects (preventing counterattacks, restricting movement, or the effects of a skill like Triangle Adept or Guard).

If a movement Assist skill (like Reposition, Shove, Pivot etc.) is used by unit or targets unit, inflicts Atk/Spd-6 on nearest foes within 4 spaces of both unit and target through their next actions.

Inflicts Atk/Def-4 on foes within 2 spaces during combat.

Farina Best IVs

Recommended IVs

Stat Superboon/Superbane IV Recommendation
HP (17) HP Superbane ★★★☆☆
Atk (26) No Attack IV ★★★★☆
Spd (10) No Spd IV ★★★★★
Def (8) Def Bane ★★☆☆☆
Res (6) 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 Farina are +Spd and -Res. A higher Spd stat allows Farina to get a ton of follow-up attacks on her foes. She has balanced defensive stats, but since her Def is a superbane, take a bane in Res instead.

+Spd for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +Spd IV when merging Farina to +10 to maximize her Spd and prevent the fastest metagame foes from generating follow-up attacks against her.

Arena Medal:500 Divine Dew:200

We recommend the Special Effect Refine for Hotshot Lance

Refined Hotshot Lance grants Farina multiple bonuses depending on the amount of Dragonflowers invested on her. These bonuses include:

Farina 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.

Farina Strengths

Refined Hotshot Lance grants multiple effects based on Dragonflowers

Refined Hotshot Lance grants Farina multiple bonuses depending on the amount of Dragonflowers invested on her. These bonuses include:

  • Up to Atk/Spd/Def/Res+12 in combat (maximum amount reached at 5 Dragonflowers)
  • Neutralizes foe's bonuses in combat (if 3 or more Dragonflowers are invested)
  • Up to +25 bonus true damage (maximum amount reached at 10 Dragonflowers)

Aside from bonuses reliant on Dragonflowers, refined Hotshot Lance also grants Farina +7 true damage reduction in combat, and also inflicts Atk/Spd/Def-5 and reduces foe's percentage-based damage reduction effects by 50% for all foes within 3 rows or 3 columns centered on Farina.

This refine improves Farina's combat in multiple ways while also helping her allies with the long-distance support. 10 Dragonflowers is a cheap cost to acquire all of the benefits of refined Hotshot Lance, and is worth the investment if you use Farina in any game mode.

Farina Weaknesses

Hotshot Lance is dependent on Dragonflowers

Hotshot Lance is most efficient at 3 Dragonflower enhancements, so this forces you to get some on Farina to unlock her full potential. This might be inconvenient for other players as Dragonflowers are quite valuable considering how many units there are in the game.

Weak to bows

As a flying unit, Farina 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.

Value of Skills ★★★☆☆

Inheriting Atk/Spd Catch 4, or Atk/Def Rein 3

Farina can be used to inherit the skills Atk/Spd Catch 4 or Atk/Def Rein 3. However, Farina is a very powerful hero especially when invested upon, please think carefully before fodderring her off.

You can also get Atk/Spd Snag 3 instead of Atk/Def Rein 3!
