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.

+Def / -Spd

The best IVs for Mycen are +Def and -Spd. Boosting Def improves Mycen's overall bulk by increasing his stats and improving the debuff effect of Worldly Lance.

Spd is a clear dump stat and no amount of investment will be able to salvage it. Thus, it is a safe bane to take.

+Def for a +10 merge

We recommend +Def when merging Mycen up to +10 for similar reasons above.

Mycen Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Mycen Roles

Mycen - Zofia's Champion 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

Mycen is a close physical attacker (range = 1). Therefore, when not accounting for the Weapon Triangle, the amount of damage he deals will be equivalent to his Atk minus the foe's Def stat.

Mycen Strengths

Worldly Lance has multiple defensive effects

Mycen's exclusive weapon, Worldly Lance, grants Def/Res+6 and a Dull effect which neutralizes foe's bonuses during combat at the start of each turn.

In combat, Worldly Lance inflicts Atk/Def-X onto Mycen's foe, where X is equal to 20% of Mycen's Def at the start of combat. Worldly Lance also grants Mycen a guaranteed follow-up attack and slows down his foe's Special cooldown charges per attack.

These effects improve Mycen's defensive prowess and helps ensure he can withstand multiple attacks in combat.

Mycen Weaknesses

Abysmal Spd

Mycen's base Spd is at a very low base 16, and with no effects that prevent his foe's follow-up attacks, virtually any foe will generate a follow-up attack when facing Mycen in combat.

Mycen will be incredibly reliant on his overall bulk in order to withstand his foe's attacks.

Weak to Cavalry Effective Weapons

Mycen takes 1.5x damage from cavalry-effective weapons like Thani or Binding Reginleif, and one blow from this type of weapon will deal significant damage. Make sure you know what weapons you are up against before hopping too far into the line of battle!
