Mythic Gotoh Skills at 5★
|
Might: 14 Range: 2 Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). At start of turn, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants Def/Res+6 and "reduces damage from area-of-effect Specials by 80%" to unit and allies within 2 spaces of unit for 1 turn. At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, inflicts Atk/Res-6 on foe during combat, neutralizes bonuses to foe's Atk/Res during combat, neutralizes effects that prevent unit's counterattacks, and restores 7 HP to unit after combat. |
|
Cooldown Count = 3 Boosts damage dealt by 50% of unit’s Res. |
|
If unit initiates combat or foe's Range = 2, inflicts Atk/Res-10 on foe during combat, unit makes a guaranteed follow-up attack, and also, if unit receives consecutive attacks, reduces damage from foe's second attack onward by 80%. If foe with Range = 2 initiates combat and foe can make a follow-up attack, foe makes a follow-up attack before unit can counterattack. |
|
At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, inflicts Atk-4 and Special cooldown charge -1 on foe per attack during combat (only highest value applied; does not stack) and reduces damage from foe's first attack during combat by 30%. |

| Res (9) |
|
★★★★★ |
◯ = 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.
+Res / -Spd
The best IVs for Mythic Gotoh are +Res and -Spd. As a Mythic hero, survival is essential due to not receiving Mythic blessing bonuses. Boosting Res improves Mythic Gotoh's Magic bulk, allowing him to survive repeated attacks from his foes.
Spd is a clear dump stat and should be the bane of choice.
+Res for a +10 merge
We recommend +Res when merging Mythic Gotoh to +10 in order to excel in his Magic tank role. If opting into a more offensive role, +Atk is also a good choice.

How to Use, Explanation
Gotoh's base kit works well in providing support to his allies while retaining a Magic tank role. Smite is used to collect Aether resources once most of the enemies have been dealt with; if using outside Aether Raids, Draw Back or Reposition are preferred.

Mythic Gotoh Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses
Mythic Gotoh Roles
Mythic Gotoh is a ranged magic attacker (range = 2). Therefore, when not accounting for the Weapon Triangle, the amount of damage he deals will be equivalent to his Atk minus the foe's Res stat.
Mythic Gotoh Strengths
Brilliant Starlight is a great defensive weapon
Mythic Gotoh's Brilliant Starlight grants Def/Res+6 and 80% damage reduction against area-of-effect Specials to himself and his nearby allies at the start of each turn.
During combat, it inflicts Atk/Res-6 on his foe, neutralizes their Atk/Res Bonuses, neutralizes effects that prevent counterattacks, and restores 7 HP to himself after combat.
This is an amazing defensive weapon that protects his team from offensive foes while granting Mythic Gotoh defensive bonuses to ensure his survival in combat.
Gift of Magic inflicts massive Atk/Res penalties and grants a follow-up attack and damage reduction
Mythic Gotoh also comes with an exclusive A skill in Gift of Magic. This skill inflicts Atk/Res-10 on his foe, grants him a guaranteed follow-up attack, and has a similar effect to refined Urvan where it grants him 80% damage reduction on consecutive attacks received after the first while forcing his foe to make all of his/her attacks consecutively.
Brave Ike is a formidable tank unit due to refined Urvan, and Gift of Magic is no different. This skill makes Mythic Gotoh a very bulky unit that will take significant effort to take down.
Mythic Gotoh Weaknesses
Vulnerable to damage-reduction piercing effects
The damage reduction sources in Mythic Gotoh's kit are all non-Special, which makes piercing effects from skills like Lethality and Deadeye threatening to his survival.
Keep Mythic Gotoh away from units with this effect in order to keep him alive.

I was hoping for recent build suggestions for this hero. 😞 Given the prevalence of emblem Sigurd on AR-D squads, he seems he could be more useful in the current meta, but i know he would need newer skills, most likely (esp flat DR, since the pierceable DR is listed as his weakness. I'm just not sure what would work. LF4, maybe? Except that being his only DR may not be that useful, idk). I guess if there was anything that could make him meta relevant, u would have an updated build 🤷🏼♂️
