Stat	Superboon/Superbane	IV Recommendation
HP (18)		★★★☆☆
Atk (14)		★★★★★

Def (4)		★★☆☆☆
Res (8)		★★★☆☆

◯ = 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.

+Spd / -Def

The best IVs for Leonardo are +Spd and -Def. Leonardo's Spd is at base 42, and lacking an exclusive weapon requires him to boost Spd in order to prevent follow-up attacks from the fastest metagame foes.

Leonardo's Def is his least important stat and can be safely taken as a bane without impacting most of his matchups.

+Spd for a +10 merge

We recommend +Spd when merging Leonardo up to +10 to maximize the chances of him preventing his foe's follow-up attacks.

Leonardo Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Leonardo Roles

Leonardo - Freedom's Arrow 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

Leonardo 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.

Leonardo Strengths

Doubler Bow+ grants Bonus Doubler and visible bonuses

Leonardo's inheritable Doubler Bow+ grants a visible Atk/Res+6 bonus to himself and nearby allies at the start of each turn.

In combat, Doubler Bow+ grants Leonardo bonus Atk/Spd/Def/Res equal to 4 plus the highest bonus on each stat between himself and nearby allies.

This effect can be used to improve all of Leonardo's stats if utilized properly, making him a good all-around unit.

Leonardo Weaknesses

Lack of Unique Skills

Leonardo suffers from not having any unique skills to call his own, making him unable to stand out amongst other units.

Colorless Bow units are quite abundant in the game, and lacking an exclusive weapon makes Leonardo replaceable by better units.
