Legendary Sakura Skills at 5★

Salvage Might: 14　 Range: 2 Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1; max cooldown count value cannot be reduced below 1). Foe cannot counterattack. At start of turn, if unit is within 2 spaces of an ally, grants Atk/Spd+6, 【Salvage】, and the following status to unit and allies within 2 spaces of unit for 1 turn: "unit can move to a space adjacent to any ally within 2 spaces." For allies with the 【Salvage】 effect active, when Canto triggers, if ally is within 6 spaces of unit, ally can move to a space within 2 spaces of unit, even if that movement exceeds the Canto distance limit. If unit initiates combat or is within 2 spaces of an ally, grants bonus to unit's Atk/Spd = 20% of unit's Spd at start of combat + 6, deals damage = 15% of foe's Atk (excluding area-of-effect Specials; calculates damage from staff after combat damage is added), neutralizes effects that guarantee foe's follow-up attacks and effects that prevent unit's follow-up attacks, and neutralizes effects that inflict "Special cooldown charge -X" on unit during combat. 【Salvage】 Enables 【Canto (2)】. When 【Canto Control】 is applied to unit, if unit's Range = 1, unit can move 2 spaces with Canto instead of 1 space, and if unit's Range = 2, unit can move 1 space with Canto instead of 0 spaces.

Ice Lock+ Range: 2 This skill is treated as a Rally Assist skill. Restores HP = 40% of unit's Atk (min: 6 HP) to target ally and grants Def/Res+6 to target ally for 1 turn, and also, if there is no 【Divine Vein (Ice)】 currently applied by unit or allies, applies 【Divine Vein (Ice)】 to spaces 2 spaces away from target for 1 turn (excludes spaces occupied by a foe, destructible terrain other than 【Divine Vein (Ice)】, and warp spaces in Rival Domans). 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 onward 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.)

Holy Pressure Cooldown Count = 3 If an Assist skill is used, unit's Special cooldown count does not go down. When Special triggers, boosts damage by 45% of foe's Res. (Calculates damage from staff after combat damage is added.) If this Special is triggered during combat, inflicts 【Gravity】 on target and adjacent foes after combat.

Sway Atk/Spd If unit initiates combat or is within 3 spaces of an ally, grants bonus to unit's Atk/Spd during combat = 8 + number of allies within 3 spaces of unit × 2 (max 12), and calculates damage from staff like other weapons.

Called to Serve If a Rally or movement Assist skill is used by unit, grants "neutralizes foe's bonuses during combat" to unit, target ally, and allies within 2 spaces of target ally after movement for 1 turn. Allies on the map with the "neutralizes foe's bonuses during combat" status active deal +5 damage during combat (excluding area-of-effect Specials). Inflicts Spd/Res-4 on foe and unit deals +X damage during combat (X = number of allies on the map with "neutralizes foe's bonuses during combat" status active, excluding unit, x 5; max 15; excluding area-of-effect Specials).

Quiet Strength For allies on the map with the 【Salvage】 effect active and allies within 2 spaces of unit, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5, deals +7 damage (excluding area-of-effect Specials), reduces damage from foe's first attack by 7 ("first attack" normally means only the first strike; for effects that grant "unit attacks twice," it means the first and second strikes), and grants Special cooldown count-1 to ally before ally's first attack during their combat. If unit initiates combat or is within 2 spaces of an ally, grants Atk/Spd+5, neutralizes penalties to unit's Atk/Spd, deals +7 damage (excluding area-of-effect Specials), reduces damage from foe's first attack by 7 ("first attack" normally means only the first strike; for effects that grant "unit attacks twice," it means the first and second strikes), grants Special cooldown count-1 to unit before unit's first attack, and reduces the percentage of foe's non-Special "reduce damage by X%" skills by 50% during combat (excluding area-of-effect Specials).

Legendary Sakura Best IVs

Recommended IVs

Stat	Superboon/Superbane	IV Recommendation
HP (17)		★★★☆☆
Atk (9)		★★★★★
Spd (14)		★★★★★
Def (6)		★★☆☆☆
Res (5)		★★☆☆☆

◯ = 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 Legendary Sakura are +Spd and -Def. Sakura's Spd is quite high at base 47, and even though it isn't a superboon, the extra Spd will be helpful as it allows her to prevent follow-up attacks from the fastest metagame heroes while creating her own follow-up attacks against slower foes.

Legendary Sakura's Def is a clear dump stat and can be safely taken as a bane.

+Spd for a +10 merge

We recommend a +Spd IV when merging Legendary Sakura up to +10 to improve her Spd check against invested fast metagame foes.

How to Use, Explanation

Legendary Sakura's base kit is pretty much complete right out of the box. Just add an Atk/Spd based Sacred Seal. Emblem Lyn Ring is good on Sakura, but is not necessary as there are better wielders of it.

Legendary Sakura Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Legendary Sakura Roles

Sakura - In Full Bloom 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

Legendary Sakura 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.

Legendary Sakura Strengths

Salvage grants 【Salvage】 status and allows allies to warp when using Canto

Legendary Sakura's exclusive Staff Salvage grants herself and nearby allies Atk/Spd+6, 【Salvage】, and the Orders warping status at the start of each turn.

【Salvage】 is a new positive status effect that grants the affected unit 【Canto (2)】 and an effect that nerfs 【Canto Control】 allowing the affected unit to move 2 spaces with Canto (if melee) or 1 space with Canto (if ranged) whenever the unit is affected by 【Canto Control】.

By far the most important effect of Salvage is allowing allies within 6 spaces of Legendary Sakura to warp to spaces within 2 spaces of her whenever those allies use Canto, even if moving to that space exceeds the Canto distance limit. This is a very unique effect that easily enables a Hit and Run strategy unlike any other skill or effect, especially when paired with units that have Emblem Celica Ring or similar effects.

Finally, in combat, Salvage grants Legendary Sakura bonus Atk/Spd equal to 6 + 20% of her Spd, bonus true damage equal to 15% of her foe's Atk, a Null Follow-Up effect, and neutralizes foe's Guard effects.

Salvage is a very powerful staff that grants massive mobility boosts to the entire team and also grants Legendary Sakura some offensive strength to defeat her foes in combat.

Quiet Strength grants bonus stats, true damage, true damage reduction, and Preempt Pulse to entire team

Legendary Sakura's exclusive C skill Quiet Strength grants nearby allies, and allies with the 【Salvage】 status Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5, +7 true damage per attack, 7 true damage reduction on foe's first attack, and a Preempt Pulse effect during combat.

In combat, Quiet Strength grants Legendary Sakura Atk/Spd+5, neutralizes Atk/Spd penalties on Sakura, and grants Sakura +7 true damage per attack, 7 true damage reduction on foe's first attack, a Preempt Pulse effect, and a 50% damage reduction piercing effect.

Quiet Strength can swing combat in Sakura or her ally's favor simply by existing, even if allies are far away from Sakura, making this a very versatile and useful C skill to equip.

Legendary Sakura Weaknesses

Frail

Legendary Sakura is a fantastic support hero with great mobility, but her bulk isn't high enough to survive attacks from modern invested heroes, even with Quiet Strength's damage reduction effect.

Keep Sakura away from enemies by leaving her in the backline to ensure her survival and continuous support.

Weak to Bows

As a flying unit, Legendary Sakura takes 1.5x damage from bows and weapons effective on flying units. Be sure to keep them out of the range of archers and leave them to other units.
