Rearmed Sonya Skills at 5★

Arc. Caliburnus Might: 14　 Range: 2 Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5 to unit, unit makes a guaranteed follow-up attack, grants Special cooldown charge +1 to unit per attack (only highest value applied; does not stack), and neutralizes foe's bonuses to Atk/Res (from skills like Fortify, Rally, etc.) during combat.

Blazing Wind Cooldown Count = 4 Before combat this unit initiates, foes in an area near target take damage equal to 1.5x (unit’s Atk minus foe’s Def or Res).

Beyond Witchery Grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+8 to unit. At start of turn, grants Special cooldown count-X to unit and deals X damage to unit (on turn 1, X = 2; otherwise, X = 1). Neutralizes effects that inflict "Special cooldown charge -X" on unit during combat.

Escape Route 4 When unit's HP ≤ 99%, enables 【Canto (1)】 (also activates if conditions are met due to effects after combat). Inflicts Atk/Spd-3 on foe during combat. If unit's HP ≤ 99%, unit can move to a space adjacent to any ally within 3 spaces. If unit's HP ≤ 60%, unit can move to a space adjacent to any ally.

Atk/Res Ploy 3 At start of player phase or enemy phase, if any foes within 3 rows or 3 columns centered on unit have Res < unit's Res+5, inflicts Atk/Res-7, 【Ploy】, and 【Exposure】 on those foes through their next actions. 【Ploy】 Neutralizes 【Bonus Doubler】, 【Treachery】, and 【Grand Strategy】 effects active on unit during combat through unit's next action.

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 Rearmed Sonya are +Atk and -Def. Sonya's Atk is among the highest in the game at base 47, and with a guaranteed follow-up attack from her weapon, she can nuke down enemies with ease. Boosting her Atk further improves her overall damage output.

Def is Rearmed Sonya's least important stat as it is way too low to be useful in most situations.

+Atk for a +10 merge

We recommend a +Atk IV when merging Rearmed Sonya up to +10 to ensure she has enough nuking power to defeat her foes.

Rearmed Sonya Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Rearmed Sonya Roles

Sonya - Beautiful Mage 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

Rearmed Sonya 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.

Rearmed Sonya Strengths

Arcane Caliburnus grants multiple offensive effects

Rearmed Sonya's Arcane weapon Arc. Caliburnus grants bonus stats, a guaranteed follow-up attack, bonus Special cooldown charges per attack during combat, and neutralizes her foe's visible bonuses to Atk and Res.

These are all offensive effects that allow Rearmed Sonya to apply as much damage as possible and bring down her enemies with ease.

Beyond Witchery grants raw stats and Special charges

Rearmed Sonya's exclusive A skill Beyond Witchery grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+8 raw stats, improving Sonya both offensively and defensively.

Beyond Witchery also grants Special cooldown charge -X and deals X damage to Rearmed Sonya at the start of each turn; X = 2 on the first turn, and X = 1 on every turn after the first. The extra Special charges are always appreciated, while the chip damage can be used to activate her base kit's Escape Route 4.

Rearmed Sonya Weaknesses

Low Physical Bulk

Rearmed Sonya only has base 38 HP and base 20 Def with no damage reduction effects, leaving her incredibly prone to physical damage.

Keep Sonya away from foes that inflict physical damage to ensure her survival.
