Legendary Sigurd Skills at 5★


Might: 16  Range: 1
Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). At start of combat, if foe's HP ≥ 75%, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5 to unit during combat, unit makes a guaranteed follow-up attack, and also, if unit initiates combat or foe's range = 2, reduces damage from foe's first attack by 40%

Cooldown Count = 2
At start of turn, grants "unit can move 1 extra space (that turn only; does not stack)" and "if unit initiates combat, reduces damage from foe's first attack during combat by 40%" to unit for 1 turn. Boosts Special damage by 30% of unit's Atk.
After combat, if unit's Special triggered, grants Atk/Def+6, "unit can move 1 extra space (that turn only; does not stack)," and "if unit initiates combat, reduces damage from foe's first attack during combat by 40%" to unit and all allies for 1 turn (bonus granted to allies even if unit's HP reaches 0).

At start of combat, if foe's HP=100% or if【Penalty】is active on foe, grants Atk/Def+7 to unit during combat. At start of combat, if foe's HP=100% and【Penalty】is active on foe, grants an additional Atk/Def+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).

Legendary Sigurd Best IVs

Recommended IVs

Stat Superboon/Superbane IV Recommendation
HP (19) HP Superbane ★★★☆☆
Atk (27) Attack Boon ★★★★★
Spd (6) No Spd IV ★★★☆☆
Def (9) No Def IV ★★★☆☆
Res (4) Res Bane ★★☆☆☆

◯ = 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/-Res

The best IVs for Legendary Sigurd are +Atk and -Res. One of Legendary Sigurd's main strengths lies in his ability to attack twice with Hallowed Tyrfing, so even a small change to his Atk stat greatly changes his overall ability. As long as he has +Atk, his bane is not really of much significance, but most of the time, Res is his best bane.

+Atk for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +Atk IV when merging Legendary Sigurd to 10. This is for the same reasons above. With a higher Atk stat, he will be able to deal large amounts of damage with Hallowed Tyrfing's guaranteed follow-up attack.

Legendary Sigurd Best Weapon Refine

Effect of Legendary Sigurd's Refined Weapon

Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type)
SP: 400
Might: 16 Range: 1 HP: 3
Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). If unit initiates combat or if foe's HP ≥ 75% at start of combat, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5 to unit, unit makes a guaranteed follow-up attack, and reduces damage from foe's first attack by 40% 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.
Enables 【Canto (Rem. +1)】.
At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+4 to unit, grants bonus to unit's Atk/Spd/Def/Res = number of spaces from start position to end position of whoever initiated combat (max 4), deals damage = 15% of unit's Atk (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and neutralizes foe's bonuses to Atk/Def (from skills like Fortify, Rally, etc.) during combat.
Arena Medal:500 Divine Dew:200

We recommend the Special Effect Refine for Hallowed Tyrfing

Refined Hallowed Tyrfing grants up to Atk/Spd/Def/Res+13 in combat, a guaranteed follow-up attack, 40% damage reduction on foe's first attack, a Near Trace effect, true damage equal to 15% of Sigurd's Atk, 7 HP post-combat healing, and neutralizes foe's bonuses to Atk/Def during combat.

These effects improve Sigurd's hitting power, survivability, and mobility, making it a great all-around refine.

Legendary Sigurd 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 his Atk minus the foe's Def stat.

As a Legendary Hero, you will gain a Wind Blessing when summoning L!Sigurd. Additionally, being a Wind type Legendary Hero means that during Wind Seasons, other allies with a Wind Blessing will receive HP+3 when they appear in battle with Legendary Sigurd, and his total stats will be treated as 185. This will lead to a higher Arena Score.

Legendary Sigurd Strengths

Refined Hallowed Tyrfing improves power, bulk, and mobility

Refined Hallowed Tyrfing grants up to Atk/Spd/Def/Res+13 in combat, a guaranteed follow-up attack, 40% damage reduction on foe's first attack, a Near Trace effect, true damage equal to 15% of Sigurd's Atk, 7 HP post-combat healing, and neutralizes foe's bonuses to Atk/Def during combat.

These effects improve Sigurd's hitting power, survivability, and mobility, making it a great all-around refine.

Holy-Knight II grants bonus mobility to the entire team

Holy-Knight II, Legendary Sigurd's remixed exclusive Special skill, grants +1 movement and 40% damage reduction on foe's first attack to Sigurd at the start of each turn.

When Holy-Knight II triggers, it boosts Sigurd's damage by 30% of his Atk, and grants Atk/Def+6, +1 movement, and 40% damage reduction on foe's first attack to Sigurd and all his allies for 1 turn, no matter how far away his allies are from him.

This Special makes Sigurd an amazing initiator unit, vastly increasing the attack range of his entire team and opening up new avenues of attack that otherwise aren't possible.

Legendary Sigurd Weaknesses

Countered by Null Follow-Up

Since Legendary Sigurd relies on Hallowed Tyrfing's effects to nail follow-up attacks instead of his Spd, he is countered by Null Follow-Up 3, and similar skills.

Countered by Spd-based damage reduction skills.

Sigurd's Spd is very low so he is easily countered by skills that reduce damage through Spd checks. Sigurd will almost always be outsped by units using these skills so his daame will take quite a dive against said units.

Weak to cavalry effective weapons

As a cavalry unit, Sigurd will take massive damage from weapons like Ridersbane which are effective on cavalry units. Be sure and check your foes' weapons beforehand.
