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/-Def

Young Ilyana's best IVs are +Atk/-Def. Her Atk is a superboon and boosting it will yield better returns.

Her Def is below average and reducing it should not affect most of her matchups. Thus, it is the bane of choice.

+Atk for a +10 Merge

We recommend +Atk when merging Young Ilyana to +10 for similar reasons above.

A +Res IV may also be used to maximize her damage reduction.

Young Ilyana Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Young Ilyana Roles

Ilyana - Awakened Appetite 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

Young Ilyana 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.

Young Ilyana Strengths

Windy War Tome has multiple useful effects

Young Ilyana's Windy War Tome has multiple effects that can impact combat heavily, assuming Young Ilyana meets the conditions to trigger these effects.

It grants Res+3 no matter what, and a handful of other effects if Young Ilyana's foe either initiates combat or has HP ≥ 75%.

Below is a summary of these effects, assuming Young Ilyana's foe either initiates combat or has HP ≥ 75%:

Condition	Effect
Always	Inflicts Atk/Res-6 on foe during combat.
Ilyana's Res > foe's Res	Grants Res-based damage reduction (max 40%).
Ilyana's Res ≥ foe's Res+5	Foe cannot make a follow-up attack.

With powerful effects tied to Young Ilyana's Res, investing in it would yield better returns!

Young Ilyana Weaknesses

Overreliant on winning Res checks

Young Ilyana's Windy War Tome only triggers the powerful effects if her Res is higher than the opponent's.

This may prove to be unreliable against other foes with high Res stats.

Invest skills that boost Young Ilyana's Res to maximize the chances of triggering her tome's full power!

Abysmal Def stat

Young Ilyana's Def stat sits at a very low 18. This leaves her vulnerable to defeat in one hit from a physical attacker.

Keep Ilyana away from physical attackers to ensure her survival.
