HP (16)		★★★☆☆
Atk (12)		★★★★★
Spd (7)		★★★☆☆
Def (4)		★★☆☆☆
Res (11)		★★★★★

◯ = 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 and -Def

Legendary Micaiah's best IVs are +Atk and -Def. +Atk is a Superboon and boosts Legendary Micaiah's already high Atk stat even higher and maximizes damage output. Her Def is a dump stat and boosting it will not change most of her matchups, thus it is safe to take as a bane.

+Atk for a +10 Merge Project

If you want to build a +10 merged Legendary Micaiah, we recommend a +Atk IV. Maximizing her Atk ensures that she kills her foes after one round of combat. Taking a +Spd IV is also worth if you are committing to a Spd build focus for Arena.

Legendary Micaiah Best Builds

General Use / Budget Legendary Micaiah

HOT
： New Dawn ： Maiden's Solace ： Iceberg ： -	： Fury 4 ： Prescience ： Joint Dist. Guard ： Mirror Strike 2 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

This budget build uses Micaiah's base kit to its fullest by equipping a high damage Special in Iceberg and a seal that boosts both her Atk and Res in Mirror Strike 2. You may also use Distant Guard 3 seal to have more team support by stacking its effect with Micaiah's native Joint Dist. Guard.

Arena Legendary Micaiah

HOT
： New Dawn ： Maiden's Solace ： Ruptured Sky ： -	： Atk/Spd Solo 4 ： Prescience ： Joint Drive Spd ： Atk/Spd Solo 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

This build is mainly for Arena usage with maximum scoring skills in every slot. Dual Atk/Spd Solo skills and Joint Drive Spd are used to guarantee a follow-up attack in cases where the foe can prevent the automatic follow-up from Micaiah's New Dawn, which turns combat into a Spd check. They also boost Micaih's Spd to prevent foes from doubling her on enemy phase.

Legendary Micaiah Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Legendary Micaiah Roles

Micaiah - Radiant Queen 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

Legendary Micaiah 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.

Legendary Micaiah Strengths

New Dawn is a powerful offensive tome with great coverage!

Micaiah is low in HP, but thanks to New Dawn, she scores guaranteed consecutive attacks!

New Dawn provides the following useful effects:

• Grants effective damage against armored and cavalry foes.
• Atk/Res +6 easily accessible in both phases.
• Guaranteed follow-up attack accessible in both phases.
• Can attack twice before foe can retaliate if unit's HP ≤ 50% and she initiates combat.

The HP requirement can be conveniently reached thanks to Fury or Maiden's Solace

Prescience provides valuable damage reduction

Off the bat, it inflicts -5 Atk/Res on the foe. This is already very helpful as it provides her with more firepower and some bulk. More importantly, Prescience reduces the damage from the foe's first attack by 30% when:

• Micaiah initiates combat, OR
• The foe is a ranged unit (works in both phases!)

Maiden's Solace combines heals and penalty neutralization

Micaiah's exclusive assist skill can be used on allies to convert their penalties into bonuses, neutralize remaining penalties, and transfer some of Micaiah's HP into them. The amount of HP that will be restored is equal to Micaiah's current HP-1. The amount restored will be reduced from Micaiah's HP. Think of it as an HP transfer!

Thanks to the HP transfer, this can also be used to set up the effects of New Dawn

Improves Team Durability with Joint Dist. Guard

A skill that debuts with Legendary Micaiah is Joint Dist. Guard. it grants +4 Def/Res to allies within 2 spaces during combat against ranged units It also grants the same effect to Micaiah if she is against ranged units.

Combined with her other bonuses, enemy penalties, and damage reduction, Micaiah can survive situations that you wouldn't expect her to!

Legendary Micaiah Weaknesses

Null Follow-Up

Guaranteed follow-up attacks are not Legendary Micaiah's only tool, but it will hurt her a lot if she does not have access to it. Units that wield effect of Null Follow-Up 3 will have a very easy time dealing with Legendary Micaiah.

Units with High Res

Legendary Micaiah is a magic nuker, and naturally, units with high Res will be counters for her. That being said, units with high Res & Null Follow-Up 3 will wall her real hard!

Low Def

Similar to other Micaiah variants in the game, Legendary Micaiah suffers from low Def. Keeping her out of range of any physical attackers is vital to her survival.
