Safy Skills at 5★

Repair Might: 14　 Range: 2 Calculates damage from staff like other weapons. Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1; max cooldown count value cannot be reduced below 1). At start of turn, neutralizes any 【Penalty】 on unit and allies within 2 spaces of unit (excluding penalties inflicted at start of turn) and restores 20 HP to those units. Grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+4 to allies within 2 spaces during combat. At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5 to unit during combat and unit makes a guaranteed follow-up attack.

Return+ Range: 1 Restores HP = 50% of unit's Atk (min 8 HP) to target ally and target ally moves to opposite side of unit. If ally cannot move to the target space (if another ally or foe is occupying the space), ally will not move. Using this skill has no effect on Special cooldown charge and unit does not gain EXP or SP. (This skill is treated as a movement skill only when movement takes place.)

Holy Panic Cooldown Count = 2 If an Assist skill is used, unit's Special cooldown does not go down. When Special triggers, boosts damage by 25% of foe's Res. (Calculates damage from staff after combat damage is added.) If Special is triggered during combat, inflicts Atk/Spd-6 and【Panic】on target and foes within 2 spaces of target after combat.

Still Water 4 Grants Atk/Res+7. Inflicts Def-5.

Atk/Spd 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/Spd-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.

+Res/-Def

The best IVs for Safy are +Res and -Def. Safy's Res stat is among the highest, so maximizing it would not only make her an effective Res tank, but also yield the best results with skills that use her Res to calculate damage. She doesn't have the best Def, so you can safely keep it as her bane.

+Res for a +10 merge

For the same reasons mentioned above, keeping her +Res as her boon would be ideal. She has one of the highest Res stats and uses skills that utilizes this stat in combat.

How to Use, Explanation

Safy makes great use of Ploy and Sabotage with her high Res stat. Equipping Still Water as both her A skill and Sacred Seal helps with her offensive power as well as triggering both Sabotage and Ploy.

Safy Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Safy Roles

Safy - Font of Piety 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

Safy 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.

Safy Strengths

Repair Has Built-In Odd and Even Recovery Effect

Safy excels mostly as a support, capable of going offensive if needed. Repair grants her the effects of both Odd Recovery 3 and Even Recovery 3, excluding the turn condition. This allows her to neutralize any penalty and restore 20 HP to both her allies and herself!

She is also the first unit to come with Atk/Spd Ploy 3, which inflicts Ploy and Exposure on enemies. This effect removes the effects of Bonus Doubler, Grand Strategy, and Treachery while boosting the damage they receive by 10.

Safy Weaknesses

Poor Def Stat Makes Safy Incapable of Surviving Strong Physical Hits

Safy has a base Def stat of 21, making her a physically fragile unit if deployed. This makes it necessary to protect her, especially with her usefulness as a support unit on your team. In contrast, her Res stat at least allows her to easily withstand magic attacks.

Safy as a Source Hero

Value of Skills	★★★★☆

Safy has Return+, Holy Panic, Still Water 4, and Atk/Spd Ploy 3 as excellent inheritance options.

We recommend focusing on staff-exclusive skills, such as Return+ and Holy Panic, due to their overall usefulness. If possible, also consider taking Atk/Spd Ploy 3, given its limited availability.
