If unit initiates combat, unit attacks twice. If unit initiates combat or if unit is within 2 spaces of an ally, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5 to unit and grants Special cooldown charge +1 to unit per attack during combat (only highest value applied; does not stack).

◯ = 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.
Neutral IVs by default!
As a hero obtainable only through Grand Hero Battle, Perne will always have neutral IVs by default. The only way to access IVs for this unit is through using Trait Fruits.
+Spd / -Res
The best IVs for Perne are +Spd and -Res. Boosting Spd improves his Spd stat to base 48, increased to 51 when equipping Blade Royale. 51 Spd is sufficient to ensure he keeps up with the fastest metagame units while also creating follow-up attacks against anyone else.
Perne's Res is his weakest stat and is a safe bane to take as it won't impact any of his matchups.
+Spd for a +10 merge
We recommend +Spd when merging Perne up to +10 to ensure he outspeeds a majority of his foes.

How to Use, Explanation
This is a premium offensive build for Perne. Assassin's Strike provides unmitigated pre-combat damage, allowing Perne to soften up his foes before he even attacks. Time's Pulse 4 speeds up his Special, and together with Blade Royale, allows him to trigger Draconic Aura immediately.

How to Use, Explanation
Perne can also be built on a budget using skills obtainable from Divine Codes. Atk/Spd Ideal should always be active due to Blade Royale's bonuses at the start of each turn.

Perne Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses
Perne Roles
Perne is a ranged physical attacker (range = 2). 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.
Perne Strengths
Blade Royale attacks twice, grants bonus stats, penalty neutraliazation, and Special cooldown charges
Perne's Blade Royale grants Atk/Spd+6 and a status effect neutralizing penalties to himself and his nearby allies at the start of each turn.
In combat, Blade Royale grants Perne Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5 and extra Special cooldown charges per attack, and if he initiates combat, he attacks twice.
While this weapon doesn't have a built-in accelerated Special trigger, the extra Special cooldown charges per attack compensate that and allow Perne to still quickly trigger his Special skill.
Perne Weaknesses
Low Res
Perne's low Res stat of only base 21 leaves him vulnerable to enemies that deal magic damage. Keep him away from these foes to ensure he survives combat and performs his role as an offensive attacker.
