Midir Skills at 5★

Rampart Bow Might: 14　 Range: 2 Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). Effective against flying foes. At start of turn, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, inflicts Spd/Def-7, 【Exposure】, and 【Deep Wounds】 on closest foes and foes within 2 spaces of those foes through their next actions. At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants bonus to unit's Atk/Spd/Def/Res = number of foes within 3 rows or 3 columns centered on unit × 3, + 5 (max 14), neutralizes unit's penalties, deals +X damage (X = number of foes within 3 spaces of target, including target, × 8; max 32; excluding area-of-effect Specials), and reduces damage from foe's first attack by 7 during combat ("first attack" normally means only the first strike; for effects that grant "unit attacks twice," it means the first and second strikes).

Luna Cooldown Count = 3 Treats foe's Def/Res as if reduced by 50% during combat.

Sly Swift Sparrow If unit initiates combat, grants Atk/Spd+8 to unit and unit makes a guaranteed follow-up attack during combat, and also, if number of 【Bonus】 effects active on unit ≥ 2, excluding stat bonuses, or if number of 【Penalty】 effects active on foe ≥ 2, excluding stat penalties, unit deals +5 damage during combat (including when dealing damage with an area-of-effect Special; excluding Røkkr area-of-effect Specials).

Midir Best IVs

Recommended IVs

Stat	Superboon/Superbane	IV Recommendation
HP (18)		★★★☆☆
Atk (11)		★★★★☆
Spd (12)		★★★★★
Def (6)		★★★☆☆
Res (3)		★★☆☆☆

◯ = Stat gains +4 with a superboon, ✕= Stat goes down by -4 with a superbane, - = No assets or flaws

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 / -Res

The best IVs for Midir are +Spd and -Res. As a fast ranged cavalry attacker, Midir needs the Spd boost to ensure he remains competitive against all the fast metagame units with high base Spd.

Midir's Res is a clear dump stat at only base 22 and can be safely taken as a bane.

+Spd for a +10 merge

We recommend +Spd when merging Midir up to +10 to ensure he can outspeed a majority of his foes.

Midir Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Midir Roles

Midir - Archer of Yngvi 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

Midir 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.

Midir Strengths

Rampart Bow inflicts 【Exposure】 and 【Deep Wounds】 onto multiple foes

Midir's exclusive Rampart Bow inflicts Spd/Def-7, 【Exposure】, and 【Deep Wounds】 on closest foes and foes within 2 spaces of those foes at the start of each turn.

In combat, Rampart Bow neutralizes any stat penalties on Midir, grants Midir up to Atk/Spd/Def/Res+14 depending on the number of foes within 3 rows or 3 columns centered on him, up to +32 bonus true damage based on the number of foes within 3 spaces, and 7 damage reduction on his foe's first attack.

Midir excels at attacking foes clumped up together to deal as much true damage as possible, bypassing any percentage-based damage reduction effects completely. In game modes such as Aether Raids where there are lots of enemies grouped up in one area, Midir can leverage Rampart Bow and Sly Swift Sparrow to deal up to *+47 bonus true damage per hit on top of his base and in-combat stats.

+10 true damage from 【Exposure】, +32 from Rampart Bow, and +5 from Sly Swift Sparrow

Midir Weaknesses

Relies on Rampart Bow's bonus true damage

Midir relies on attacking foes close to other foes in order to maximize Rampart Bow's true damage effect.

Against enemies isolated from their teammates, Midir won't be able to deal enough damage to burst them down.

Midir unfortunately stays true to his name by being mid against foes that separate themselves from their allies.

Low Res

Midir's base 22 Res leaves him vulnerable to magic damage.

Keep him away from foes that deal magic damage to ensure his survival.

Weak to Cavalry Effective Weapons

Midir 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!
