Might: 14 Range: 2 Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). After unit acts (if Canto triggers, after Canto), inflicts Atk/Res-7, 【Exposure】, and 【Panic】 on closest foes and foes within 2 spaces of those foes through their next actions. After Canto (including cases where action is ended due to Canto Control), if unit has used an Assist skill on the current turn, grants another action to unit, and re-enables Canto (once per turn; does not trigger when affected by effects of traps in Aether Raids during Canto). Grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+15 to unit, unit deals +25 damage (including area-of-effect Specials), and reduces damage from foe's attacks by 15 during combat (excluding area-of-effect Specials). If unit initiates combat after moving to a different space, triggers the following effects depending on unit's equipped Special: If unit has an area-of-effect Special equipped, grants Special cooldown count-X to unit before Special triggers before combat; if unit's attack can trigger unit's Special (excluding area-of-effect Specials), grants Special cooldown count-X to unit before unit's first attack during combat. (X = number of spaces from start position to end position of unit; max 3.) |
|
Range: 1 Moves adjacent ally to opposite side of unit. |
|
Cooldown Count = 4 Before combat this unit initiates, foes in an area near target take damage equal to 1.5x (unit's Atk minus foe's Def or Res). |
|
Grants Atk/Res+8. Inflicts Def-8. At start of player phase or enemy phase, neutralizes 【Panic】 and any penalties to unit's Atk/Res that take effect on unit at this time. |

Allies on the map with 【Empathy】 active deal +7 damage during combat (excluding area-of- effect Specials). Inflicts Spd/Def/Res-4 on foe and unit deals +X+7 damage during combat (excluding area-of-effect Specials; X = highest total Atk+Spd bonuses among unit and allies with 【Empathy】 active). |
|
Enables 【Canto (Dist.; Max 3, Min 1)】. Disables foe's effects that "calculate damage using the lower of foe's Def or Res" during combat (including area-of-effect Specials). After foes' start-of-turn skills trigger, for the closest foes in cardinal directions of unit, if unit's Res ≥ foe's Res+X (X = distance from unit to foe × 3, -5) and 【Time's Grip】 is not active on foe, that foe's action ends immediately and inflicts 【Time's Grip】 and 【Gravity】 on that foe. For allies within 3 rows or 3 columns centered on unit, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5, ally deals +7 damage (excluding area-of-effect Specials), reduces damage from foe's attacks by 7 (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and grants Special cooldown count-1 to ally before ally's first attack during combat.

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 / -Def or -HP
The best IVs for Winter Seiðr are +Res and -Def or -HP. Res is a superboon and boosts Winter Seiðr's Res from base 49 to base 53, making it easier for her to win the Res checks of Future-Guided and apply 【Time's Grip】 to her foes.
Both HP and Def are below average stats for Seiðr, and either of them can be safely taken as a bane as it won't impact any of her matchups. We recommend -Def due to Future-Guided's ability to neutralize adaptive damage.
