Summer Ivy Best IVs

Recommended IVs

Stat Superboon/Superbane IV Recommendation
HP (16) HP Superbane ★★☆☆☆
Atk (16) Attack Boon ★★★★★
Spd (3) Spd Bane ★☆☆☆☆
Def (3) No Def IV ★☆☆☆☆
Res (11) Res Bane ★★★★★

◯ = 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 / -Def

The best IVs for Summer Ivy are +Atk and -Def. Summer Ivy's Atk is a superboon and boosting it further helps her capacity to defeat foes in one attack.

Summer Ivy's Def is lackluster and no amount of investment will help improve her physical bulk. Taking Def as a bane is the ideal choice.

+Atk for a +10 merge

We recommend +Atk when merging Summer Ivy to +10 to help Summer Ivy defeat her foes more often.

Summer Ivy Attack Fire Emblem Heroes FEH

  • Summer Ivy initiates combat;
  • Summer Ivy is within 2 spaces of her support partner;
  • Summer Ivy's foe has a 【Penalty】 applied to them.

Summer Ivy Weaknesses
