Ascended Fir Skills at 5★
|
Might: 16 Range: 1 Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). At start of turn, if unit's HP ≥ 25% and unit's Special cooldown count is at its maximum value, grants Special cooldown count-1 to unit At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5 to unit, inflicts Spd/Def-X on foe (X = 11 - foe's max Special cooldown count value x 2; min 3; if foe does not have a Special skill, penalty = 3), and reduces damage from foe's first attack by 40% during combat, and also, if unit's Spd ≥ foe's Spd+5, neutralizes effects that inflict "Special cooldown charge -X" on unit during combat. If unit's HP ≥ 25% at start of combat and unit's Special cooldown count is at its maximum value after combat, grants Special cooldown count-1 to unit after combat. |
|
Cooldown Count = 2 Boosts damage dealt by 50%. |
|
If unit is within 3 spaces of an ally, grants Atk/Spd+7 to unit during combat, and also, if unit's Special is ready or unit's Special triggered before or during this combat, deals +5 damage during combat (except when dealing damage with area-of-effect Specials) and when unit deals damage during combat, restores 7 HP to unit.

◯ = 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.
+Spd / -Res
The best IVs for Ascended Fir are +Spd and -Res. Spd boosts her already high Spd, allowing her to keep up with all the fast metagame units. As a speedy sword infantry, Ascended Fir needs every bit of investment in her Spd to maximize her potential.
Her Res is a clear dump stat at only base 21 and is the easy bane of choice.
+Spd for a +10 merge
We recommend +Spd when merging up Ascended Fir to +10 for similar reasons above. Spd is her most important stat.

Ascended Fir Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses
Ascended Fir Roles
Ascended Fir 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.
Ascended Fir Strengths
Vassal-Saint Steel speeds up Specials and has other in-combat effects
Ascended Fir's exclusive weapon Vassal-Saint Steel wields multiple effects that swing combat in her favor.
The most important effect is the Time's Pulse 4 effect which pre-charges a 2 cooldown Special like Glimmer, ensuring Fir's Special is available at all times.
For in-combat stat swings, Vassal-Saint Steel grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5 during combat and inflicts Spd/Def-X on Fir's foe, where X is dependent on the foe's Special skill.
Finally, Vassal-Saint Steel also grants Fir 40% damage reduction on her foe's first attack, and if she wins a Spd check, neutralizes effects that slow down her Special cooldown charges, ensuring that she triggers her Special very often.
Ascended Fir Weaknesses
Saturation
Ascended Fir is yet another speedy sword infantry unit in the sea of similar units in Fire Emblem Heroes. There are a lot of them out there, and some of them stand out in areas that Ascended Fir doesn't.
As an example, Fallen Byleth (F) has multiple layers of damage reduction, a pre-charged exclusive Special in Divine Pulse, a Bulwark effect to block off foes, and a Vantage effect to ensure she attacks first at all times.
Most of these speedy sword infantry units have similar checks, and players should already have these checks on their barracks.
