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 / -Res

The best IVs for Legendary Shez (F) are +Atk and -Res. Atk is a superboon and boosting it significantly improves her knockout power with her brave weapon and effective damage.

+Spd is also an option in order to improve her Spd checks for effective damage. We recommend +Atk over it though.

Her Res is below average, and as a glass cannon, her defensive stats will hardly matter. Any of them can be safely taken as a bane.

+Atk for a +10 merge

We recommend +Atk when merging Legendary Shez (F) up to +10 to secure knockouts as much as possible.

Legendary Shez (F) Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Legendary Shez (F) Roles

Shez - Sharpest Blades 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

Legendary Shez (F) is a ranged physical 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 Def stat.

Legendary Shez (F) Strengths

Asura Blades attacks twice and grants Special charges

Legendary Shez (F) carries two swords daggers in Asura Blades. This weapon grants Spd+5, allows her to attack twice in combat, neutralizes her penalties, and grants Special cooldown charges per attack upon winning a Spd check.

Brave weapons typically have stat penalties attached to them, but Asura Blades instead provides stat bonuses on top of all these other effects that simply enhance the weapon's strength.

Swift Slice is effective against all weapon types

Legendary Shez (F) also has an exclusive A skill in Swift Slice.

This skill grants Shez Atk/Spd/Def/Res+8 whenever she is initiating combat or is within 2 spaces of an ally. More importantly, it grants effective damage against all weapon types upon winning a conditional Spd check depending on her opponent whenever she initiates combat:

Opponent	Condition
Infantry, non-Beast, non-Dragon	Legendary Shez (F)'s Spd ≥ foe's Spd+20
Infantry, Beast or Dragon	Legendary Shez (F)'s Spd ≥ foe's Spd+5
Cavalry, Flying, or Armored	Legendary Shez (F)'s Spd ≥ foe's Spd+5.

Sources that nullify effective damage are usually tied to movement types, such as Iote's Shield, Brave Hector's refined Maltet, and so on. Asura Blades plus Swift Slice dodges all of them by being effective against weapon types instead.

Attacking twice with a brave effect and with effective damage will more often than not defeat her foe in one combat.

Legendary Shez (F) Weaknesses

Effective damage is only on player phase and conditional on Spd checks

The effective damage dealt by Asura Blades is only active on player phase, and Legendary Shez (F) needs to win a Spd check as well.

The top of the metagame has a lot of incredibly speedy units; winning the Spd check is not guaranteed, even if Shez is stacked with various skills that boost Spd.

Additionally, when facing a human infantry unit, the Spd check needs to exceed 20, and this can prove to be incredibly difficult to achieve.

Glass cannon bulk

Legendary Shez (F) suffers from her stats all being allocated to her offenses, leaving her with subpar bulk.

Most hard hitting modern units can defeat her in one hit. Keep her out of range to ensure her survival.
