Magic Shield+ Range: 1 Restores HP = 50% of unit's Atk (min: 8 HP) to target ally and grants the following effects to target ally for 1 turn: Atk/Res+6 and "neutralizes penalties on unit during combat." If used on turn 2 onward, also grants another action to unit and inflicts "restricts movement to 1 space" on unit and Pair Up cohort through their next action. (Effects that can trigger on turn 2 will not trigger again for 2 turns after triggering. Using this skill has no effect on Special cooldown charge and unit does not gain EXP or SP. This skill is treated as a Rally Assist skill.)

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/-Spd

The best IVs for Young Emmeryn are +Res and -Def. Young Emmeryn's Res is among the best in the game at base 47, and increasing it further with a boon allows her to also function as a magic tank in addition to her supportive capabilities.

Both Young Emmeryn's Spd and Def are lackluster and can be safely taken as a bane. We chose Spd as it will impact less matchups compared to lowering her Def.

+Res for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +Res IV when merging Young Emmeryn to +10. This is for the same reasons as above.

How to Use, Explanation

Young Emmeryn excels as a magic tank with some offensive potential due to her high Atk and Res stats. Boosting them further with Still Water allows her to excel at her role. Still Water is used to ensure Emmeryn wins Res checks against most debuffing skills.

Young Emmeryn Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Young Emmeryn Roles

Emmeryn - Selfless Exalt Roles

Physical Wall	Magic Wall	Effective Weapon	Movement Assist
Exclusive Skill	All-Range Counter	Recovery	Refresher
Legendary	Mythic	Duo / Harmonized	Resplendent

Young Emmeryn 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.

Young Emmeryn Strengths

Exalt's War Staff allows ally warping

Young Emmeryn's exclusive weapon Exalt's War Staff allows her allies to warp to a space within 2 spaces of Emmeryn if either Emmeryn's HP ≤ 60% or if Emmeryn entered combat or used an Assist skill during the current turn.

This effect is the most important part of Exalt's War Staff, as with it, Young Emmeryn can act as a beacon unit for allies to warp in and sweep the entire enemy team using multiple actions through Duo Skills or effects like Galeforce.

More importantly, allies can warp to spaces near Young Emmeryn no matter where they are on the map. This effect opens up sweeping strategies without the need for prior setup, unlike Wings of Mercy teams where the beacon unit needs to have their HP reduced below a certain threshold. It's as simple as having Emmeryn act and then moving her nearby the enemy team using the extra action granted by Magic Shield+ or by Smiting her into the enemy team.

Exalt's War Staff also grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+4 during combat and 7 HP post-combat healing to allies within 3 spaces of Young Emmeryn.

In her own combat, Exalt's War Staff grants Young Emmeryn Atk/Res+6, a guaranteed follow-up attack, and bonus damage equal to 20% of her Res, making Emmeryn a formidable unit on her own as well.

Young Emmeryn Weaknesses

Poor Spd and Def

Young Emmeryn's Spd and Def are quite lackluster at only base 25 and 23 respectively, leaving her vulnerable to physical damage, especially from faster foes.

Young Emmeryn excels at tanking magic damage; keep her away from foes that deal physical damage to ensure her survival.
