Ninja Cherche Best IVs

Recommended IVs

Stat Superboon/Superbane IV Recommendation
HP (19) Normal HP ★★★★☆
Atk (14) Attack Boon ★★★★★
Spd (3) No Spd IV ★☆☆☆☆
Def (11) Def Bane ★★★★★
Res (6) No Res IV ★★★☆☆

◯ = 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 / -Spd

The best IVs for Ninja Cherche are +Atk and -Spd. As a high Atk unit with a brave weapon, boosting Atk improves performance heavily, allowing for easy one round knockouts.

+Def is also an option if opting to prioritize bulk, to enhance her true damage reduction effect.

+Atk for a +10 merge

We recommend +Atk when boosting Ninja Cherche to +10 for similar reasons above. +Def is also an option if survivability is more important.

Ninja Cherche 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 Cherche Strengths

Wyvern Ono attacks twice, deals true damage and grants true damage reduction

Ninja Cherche Attack Fire Emblem Heroes FEH

Ninja Cherche's exclusive Wyvern Ono attacks twice on both phases and grants Def/Res+5 in return for Spd-8. The Spd penalty may prevent quad attacking, but it is mitigated by the guaranteed double attack.

It also provides true damage and true damage reduction equal to 20% of Ninja Cherche's Def. This effect is quite powerful, as proven by units like Spring Maria and Askr who have similar effects. The true damage reduction makes them formidable tank units who can withstand multiple attacks from their enemies, while the true damage effect allows them to heavily dent their foes, if not outright defeat them.

Ninja Cherche Weaknesses

Low Spd

Like every unit in this banner, Ninja Cherche's Spd is atrocious, sitting at base 20, and lowered to 12 when equipping her Wyvern Ono.

If Ninja Cherche cannot defeat her foe after her two attacks, she will be attacked twice in return. The true damage reduction effect should help her survive, but taking any damage at all isn't ideal.

Weak to Bows

As a flying unit, Ninja Cherche 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.
