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.

+Spd / -Def

The best IVs for Phila are +Spd and -Def. Her Spd is among the highest, especially for free to play players, and should be invested as much as possible.

Her Def is below average and is a safe bane to take as it shouldn't affect her matchups.

+Spd for a +10 Merge

We recommend +Spd when boosting Phila to +10 for similar reasons above. She needs the Spd investment to keep up with the metagame's speedy units.

Phila Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Phila Roles

Phila - Pegasus Master 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

Phila is a close physical attacker (range = 1). Therefore, when not accounting for the Weapon Triangle, the amount of damage he/she deals will be equivalent to her Atk minus the foe's Def stat.

Phila Strengths

Rein Lance+ inflicts Spd/Def penalties onto nearby foes

Phila's Rein Lance+ inflicts Spd/Def-5 onto all foes within two spaces.

This effect also works outside of combat, providing support to her allies whenever they attack foes near Phila.

Phila Weaknesses

Lack of Unique Options

Having no exclusive skills makes Phila replaceable by almost any other Lance Flier in the game, and there are a lot of them to choose from.

Her only advantage against the other Lance Fliers is her modern stat spread, but the lack of exclusive skills overshadows this and makes her worse than those with exclusive skills.

Weak to Bows

As a flying unit, Phila takes 1.5x damage from bows and weapons effective on flying units. Be sure to keep them out of the range of archers and leave them to other units.

Phila as a Source Hero

Value of Skills	★★★☆☆

Phila comes with Rein Lance+, Brazen Atk/Res 3, and Pegasus Flight 3 as inheritance options.

Having Pegasus Flight 3 on a demote is a good thing. However, it is quite niche.

Rein Lance+ can provide support and is good on supportive flying units. However, as an offensive option, there are better lances out there.
