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.

Neutral IVs by default!

As a hero obtainable only through Tempest Trials, Summer Norne will always have neutral IVs by default. The only way to access IVs for this unit is through using Trait Fruits.

+Spd/-HP

The best IVs for Summer Norne are +Spd and -HP. A +Stk IV superboon boosts her already high Spd to greater levels that are only matched by the speediest heroes in the game. Her defenses are balanced; thus, taking a -HP bane is the best option.

+Spd for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +Spd IV if merging Summer Norne to +10. This is for the same reasons as above; having a +IV in Spd maximizes her Spd and prevents follow-up attacks while increasing her chances to perform a follow-up attack of her own.

Summer Norne Best Builds

Budget Summer Norne

： Shellpoint Lance+ ： Reposition ： Moonbow ： -

： Spd/Def Bond 3 ： Quick Riposte 3 ： Drive Spd 2 ： Atk/Res Bond 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

This budget build utilizes ally positioning to maximize passive stats. Having adjacent allies will activate the two bond skills and Shellpoint Lance+ at the same time. Quick Riposte is used to counter follow-up negation, allowing Norne to use her high Spd stat to win Spd checks and double her enemies.

General Use Summer Norne

HOT
： Slaying Lance+ ： Reposition ： Ruptured Sky ： -	： Distant Stance ： Spurn 3 ： Atk/Spd Menace ： Atk/Spd Solo 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

This build takes advantage of Norne's great offensive stat spread to apply Spd-based damage reduction through Spurn. Norne's Spd is boosted through a Spd-refined Slaying Lance+, Atk/Spd Menace and Atk/Spd Solo 3. Distant Stance allows Norne to counterattack against all foes, while Slaying Lance+ reduces the cooldown of Ruptured Sky to 1 charge, allowing Norne to retaliate with it right away. Replacing Reposition with a dual rally+ skill such as Rally Atk/Spd+ will maximize Arena scoring with this build.

Summer Norne Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Summer Norne Roles

Norne - Seaside Volunteer 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 Norne 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.

Summer Norne Strengths

High Spd stat

Summer Norne has a high Spd stat at base 39. This can be raised to as much as 52 with a +Spd IV, 10 merges, dragonflowers, and a Spd-refined weapon. With summoner support, it can be raised even higher to 54!

Having a high Spd stat allows Summer Norne to win Spd checks and perform follow-up attacks much easier, as well as prevent more follow-up attacks applied to her. A higher Spd stat also allows Summer Norne to reduce damage reduction from the foe's Spd-based damage reduction skills such as Spurn 3.

Shellpoint Lance+ boosts Atk and Def

The Atk/Def bonus can be seen above. The +6 Def bonus is an off-combat buff so it is not visible in this sequence.

Summer Norne's native Shellpoint Lance+ gives her Def+6 at the start of the turn if she is within 3 spaces of an ally. It also provides Atk/Def+5 boosts to her if she is within 3 spaces of an ally during combat. Ensure you are within range to maximize the effects of this weapon!

Summer Norne Weaknesses

Average bulk

With base 42 HP, 31 Def, and 27 Res, Summer Norne's overall bulk is nothing special. She completely relies on negating follow-up attacks with her impressive Spd stat and is vulnerable to attacks from heavy hitters.
