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, Ninja Shamir 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 Ninja Shamir are +Spd and -HP. Since her weapon can nail second strikes, and her kit is designed to make it easy for her to nail quad-attacks, getting a +Spd IV would be best in significantly increasing these chances. It's also her Superboon!

Her HP is of less importance so it can be safely taken as her bane.

+Spd for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +Spd IV when merging Ninja Shamir to 10. This is for the same reasons as above and will greatly help her in scoring quad attacks..

If you prefer hitting harder, you can go for a +Atk IV instead.

Ninja Shamir Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Ninja Shamir Roles

Shamir - Lone-Moon Ninja 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

Ninja Shamir 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.

Ninja Shamir Strengths

Nail consistent quad-attacks with Shuriken Cleaver+

Ninja Shamir's quad attack takes out Julia.

Shuriken Cleaver+ is similar to a Brave weapon in the sense that it allows its user to score 2 strikes in one attack if they initiate damage.

This is an extra attack and not a follow-up attack so when you are able to get an outspeed, Ninja Shamir can land 4 strikes in one action.

This makes her a very powerful player phase attacker. Another key difference between her weapon and Brave weapons is that Shuriken Cleaver+ will inflict Def/Res-4 on her but will also deal damage equal to half the difference between Shamir's Spd and her target's Spd, provided that Shamir is faster.

High base Spd!

Ninja Shamir's base Spd is pretty high, which will help in scoring those quad-attacks.

Utilize those multiple attacks to trigger Glimmer every combat!

Ninja Shamir Weaknesses

Weak defenses

Ninja Shamir's defensive stats are not very high and considering that Shuriken Cleaver+ inflicts Def/Res-4 to her, she is very vulnerable to strong attacks.

Losing her in battle would be detrimental to your team as she provides lots of knock-out potential on a wide range of units. Use strategy to position her away from units that can easily take her out.

Ninja Shamir as a Source Hero

Value of Skills	★★★★☆

Inheriting Shuriken Cleaver+

Ninja Shamir can be used to inherit the skill Shuriken Cleaver+. However, you can only acquire her from Tempest Trials or from using Heroic Grails, so think carefully before foddering her off.

She is also fairly powerful for a free unit if you choose to invest in her. Keep this in mind when foddering her off.
