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.

+Spd / -Def

The best IVs for Céline are +Spd and -Def. Her Spd is quite high at base 44 and can be invested in order to avoid follow-up attacks from most foes.

Her Def is abysmal and can be taken as a bane.

+Spd for a +10 merge

We recommend +Spd when merging Céline up to +10 to improve her ability to avoid follow-up attacks and increase her survivability.

Res Sustain Tank Céline

HOT
： Joyous Tome ： Draw Back ： Iceberg ： -	： Spd/Res Ideal 4 ： Null Follow-Up 3 ： Atk/Res Oath 4 ： Atk/Res Ideal 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

Céline functions well as a Res tank, providing sustain for herself and her nearby allies. Atk/Res Oath 4 satisfies the conditions of her two Ideal skills and synergizes well with Joyous Tome.

General Use / Budget Céline

： Joyous Tome ： Draw Back ： Iceberg ： -

： Spd/Res Ideal 4 ： Renewal 3 ： Canto Control 3 ： Spd/Res Oath 3 ： -

How to Use, Explanation

This is a budget build using Céline as a sustain tank. Spd/Res Oath 3 on the Sacred Seal slot buffs up her stats and activates her Spd/Res Ideal 4. Renewal 3 is used for additional sustain; Null Follow-Up 3 is great as a non-budget option.

Céline Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Céline Roles

Céline - Joyous Royal 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

Céline 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.

Céline Strengths

Joyous Tome heals multiple times per turn, grants bonus stats and damage reduction

Céline's Joyous Tome restores 7 HP to Céline and her nearby allies at the start of each turn and after each combat.

It also grants Céline Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5 during combat, scaling damage reduction equal to the number of nearby allies with HP ≥ 50%, up to a maximum of 45% damage reduction, and true damage equal to the number of nearby allies with HP ≥ 50%, up to 15 bonus damage.

This tome provides a lot of sustain to both Céline and her allies, and it improves Céline's combat potential through the damage reduction and true damage effects.

Céline Weaknesses

Dependence on allies

Céline's Joyous Tome requires having nearby allies with HP ≥ 50% in order to trigger its effects.

If Céline's allies are all heavily damaged, or if she is the last unit standing, her tome's effects are neutralized, leaving Céline prone to getting picked off.

Céline as a Source Hero

Value of Skills	★★★★★

Céline has Spd/Res Ideal 4 and Canto Control 3 as inheritance options.

Prioritize Canto Control 3, as Spd/Res Ideal 4 is too niche to be a universal option.
