Summer Hilda Skills at 5★

Sunshade Staff Might: 14　 Range: 2 Calculates damage from staff like other weapons. Grants Atk+6 to allies within 2 spaces during combat. Grants Special cooldown charge +1 per foe's attack to allies within 2 spaces during their combat. (Only highest value applied. Does not stack. Special cooldown charge granted even if foe's attack deals 0 damage.) if unit is not adjacent to an ally, grants Atk/Spd+6 to unit during combat.

Nudge+ Range: 1 Restores HP = 50% of unit's Atk (min 8 HP) to target ally and pushes target ally 1 space away. If ally cannot move to the target space (if another ally or foe is occupying the space), ally will not move. Using this skill has no effect on Special cooldown charge and unit does not gain EXP or SP. (This skill is treated as a movement skill only when movement takes place.)

Atk/Spd Push 4 At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants Atk/Spd+7, but after combat, if unit attacked, deals 5 damage to unit.

Dazzling Staff 3 The enemy cannot counterattack.

Even Recovery 3 At start of even-numbered turns neutralizes any 【Penalty】 on allies within 2 spaces of unit and restores 20 HP to those units. 【Penalty】 All effects that last "on foe through 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).

Summer Hilda's Duo Skill Effect

Duo Skill

Inflicts Atk-7 on foes within 2 columns or 3 rows centered on unit through their next actions and inflicts 【Isolation】 on them. Once used, Duo skill cannot be activated again right away. At start of every third turn, if Duo Skill has already been used, unit can use Duo Skill again. 【Isolation】 Target cannot use or be the target of Assist skills through its next action. (Duo Skills can be used once per map by tapping the Duo button. Duo Skills cannot be used by units deployed using Pair Up.)

Standard Effect 1

Duel
If unit is 5★ and level 40 and unit's stats total less than 190, treats unit's stats as 190 in modes like Arena. (Higher-scoring opponents will appear. Stat total calculation excludes any values added by merges and skills.)

Summer Hilda Best IVs

Recommended IVs

Stat	Superboon/Superbane	IV Recommendation
HP (18)		★★★☆☆
Atk (9)		★★★★☆
Spd (10)		★★★★★
Def (4)		★★☆☆☆
Res (6)		★★☆☆☆

◯ = 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/-Def

The best IVs for Summer Hilda are +Spd and -Def. Her Atk is already high and increasing her Spd will allow her more potential to double units.

Her Def is already pretty low, so it would be safe as a bane. You can also opt to take her Res as a bane instead, as she won't be used to tank any hits due to how low her defensive stats are.

+Spd for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +Spd IV when merging Hilda to 10.

This is for the same reasons as above, though you can also opt for +Atk if you would like to increase her firepower.

Summer Hilda Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Summer Hilda Roles

Hilda - Deer's Two Piece 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

Summer Hilda 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.

Summer Hilda Strengths

Access to a powerful Duo Skill!

The Duo Skill's large AoE shown above!

Hilda and Marianne's Duo Skill not only inflicts an Atk debuff to enemies, but it inflicts the very powerful 【Isolation】 effect too! This Duo Skill can be used multiple times and a map, and thanks to its large AoE plus Hilda and Marianne's flying movement, it can be easily landed in vital areas to turn around the tides of combat.

Enemies affected by Isolation are unable to use, or receive any kind of assist skill whether it would be movement-assist, refresher-assist, heals, and cleanses.

Summer Hilda has the qualities of a great offensive unit too!

While the highlight of Hilda's kit is her overall ability to support with her skills and Duo Skill, you cannot ignore her potential as a secondary offensive unit. First off, Sunshade Staff possesses a built-in effect identical to Wrathful Staff 3 this takes off the damage penalty units would normally get when using a staff. The staff also grants her +6 Atk/Spd if she does not have adjacent allies upon entering battle!

The native Dazzling Staff in her B slot which blocks counterattacks. This allows her to safely shave-off HP from opponents.

Finally, the nail to the coffin is her native access to the powerful Atk/Spd Push 4 which takes her attacks to the next level. With all these, she can definitely score some one-sided matchups where she can take out foes unscathed.

Hilda and Marianne scoring a follow-up attack on an unlucky mage! Expect lots of follow-up attacks from Marianne as she has decent Spd levels.

Nudge+ is a combination of a heal and a movement-assist

When Summer Hilda uses Nudge+ on an ally, it restores HP equal to 50% of Hilda's attack and an effect similar to Shove occurs. This is unique in the sense that it is both a heal and a movement-assist skill. Its clear use is to help allies engage towards battle zones allowing them to initiate more effectively while healing them. Though you can defnitely be more creative with such a versatile skill. This significantly reduces the chance of that ally getting taken out in battle.

The only obvious drawback to this is it does not lead to Specials like Deluge Balm+ or any other special from activating. Survey the needs of the map, attack or heal accordingly to lead your team to victory.

Can Passively Heal HP and Neutralize Status Effects with Even Recovery 3

Even Recovery 3 provides heals and neutralizes any 【Penalty】 on allies within 2 spaces of Summer Hilda every start of even-numbered turns. This way of neutralizing penalties makes Summer Hilda a decent unit in Aether Raids as debuffs are very common in that game mode. Having a way to heal allies without using up an action makes room for her decent attack power to shine in most situations.

Her flaw in Aether Raids is discussed in her weaknesses portion!

Summer Hilda Weaknesses

Duo's Hindrance is rampant in the meta

Summer Hilda's main gimmick is her Duo Skill, which on paper, is an excellent weapon in Aether Raids. However, Duo's Hindrance is rampant in Aether Keeps making it hard for her to utilize it in the game mode she is potentially good for.

Weak to bows

As a flying unit, Summer Hilda 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.

Heroes with Effective Skills

Summer Hilda Team and Counters

Teammates for Summer Hilda

Aversa	Summer Byleth (F)	Brave Hector	Legendary Azura
New Year Peony	Pirate Tibarn	Flayn	Ninja Lyn

Full Flier Teams

Due to being a flying unit, Summer Hilda will naturally fit into all-flier teams, gaining access to buffs such as Hone Fliers or Goad Fliers.

This also means that she and her allies can take advantage of mobility skills like Flier Formation 3, or keep units like Pirate Tibarn healthy so they can keep using Dive-Bomb 3.

Good Support unit for Mystic Boost Tanks

With another support unit like Flayn, Summer Hilda can work fairly well if she's supporting bulky units that take advantage of the Mystic Boost 3 seal.

Examples of these are Brave Hector and Fallen Edelgard.

Summer Hilda Counters

Lyon	Winter Altina	Robin (M)	Nailah
Cecilia	Fallen Lyon	Ninja Lyn	Young Innes

Users with Null C-Disrupt

Although Summer Hilda comes with Dazzling Staff 3, units that utilize Null C-Disrupt 3 will disable it.

This means that even though she attacks these types of units, they will be able to counterattack and possibly defeat her.

Bow units

Summer Hilda has low Def, which means that she'll be an easy target of bow units, as she doesn't come with a skill like Iote's Shield.

Units with colorless-effective weapons

Units that have effectiveness against colorless units can also make quick work of Summer Hilda, as her Res is also pretty low.

Cecilia and Robin (M) are some that come to mind, as well as Fallen Lyon.

Fallen Lyon seems to be the best counter for Summer Hilda as not only does he have a colorless-effective weapon, but also has Null C-Disrupt.

Summer Hilda as a Source Hero

Value of Skills	★★★★☆

The following skills have inheritance value:

• Atk/Spd Push 4
• Nudge+
• Even Recovery 3

Though we do not recommend fodderring off Summer Hilda unless you have multiple copies, the best way to make good use of a copy is get Atk/Spd Push 3 from another unit so that you can get Atk/Spd Push 4 and another skill line of choice from one copy of Hilda.
