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 Grand Hero Battle, Limstella will always have neutral IVs by default. The only way to access IVs for this unit is through using Trait Fruits.

+Atk / -Spd

Limstella's best IVs are +Atk and -Spd. Limstella's Atk is at a high base 39 and a superboon will boost it to base 43. Maximizing Limstella's Atk leads to the most damage and is vital in eliminating threats quickly.

Limstella's Spd is at a below average base 23 and investing into it will not change most matchups. Thus, it is a safe bane to take.

+Atk for a +10 merge

We recommend +Atk when merging Limstella up to +10 for similar reasons above. Limstella's Atk is the most important stat and should be maximized as much as possible.

How to Use, Explanation

Atk/Res Gap is used to provide Atk/Res bonuses to Limstella's ally with one slot, thereby enhancing Morph Fimbulvetr's damage output. If you have other ways to provide Atk/Res bonuses, you may replace this C slot with a more flexible skill such as Joint Drive Atk.

Limstella Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Limstella Roles

Limstella - Living Construct 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

Limstella is a ranged magic attacker (range = 2). Therefore, when not accounting for the Weapon Triangle, the amount of damage they deal will be equivalent to their Atk minus the foe's Res stat.

Limstella Strengths

Morph Fimbulvetr is a powerful tome that grants multiple useful effects

Limstella is blessed with a powerful unique tome in Morph Fimbulvetr. This weapon grants multiple effects that swing combat in Limstella's favor.

Below is a summary of these effects:

Condition(s)	Effect
Always	Grants Atk+3.
Limstella is within 3 spaces of an ally	Inflicts Atk/Res-8 on Limstella's foe during combat.
Limstella is within 3 spaces of an ally	Limstella's foe cannot make a follow-up attack.
Limstella is within 3 spaces of an ally	Grants bonus to Limstella's Atk during combat = total Atk/Res Bonuses on ally with the highest total Atk/Res bonuses within 3 spaces.
Limstella is within 3 spaces of an ally after combat Limstella attacked during combat	Deals 15 damage to the nearest ally to Limstella.

Limstella Weaknesses

Morph Fimbulvetr requires a nearby ally

Morph Fimbulvetr's powerful effects only activate if Limstella is within 3 spaces of an ally.

Without a nearby ally, this tome becomes an improved Rexcalibur+ with no effects.

Morph Fimbulvetr's ally damage may be detrimental

The non-combat 15 damage inflicted by Morph Fimbulvetr may lead to Limstella's ally being defeated in combat, depending on the type of unit nearest to Limstella.

This effect is very harmful to specific units like armored heroes utilizing Savior skills.

Ensure that the nearest ally is out of range of enemies in order to mitigate this weakness as much as possible.
