Might: 16 Range: 1 Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). At start of turn and after unit acts (if Canto triggers, after Canto), inflicts 【Exposure】, 【Frozen】, and 【Def Shackle】 on closest foes and foes within 2 spaces of those foes through their next actions. Grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+15 to unit, neutralizes foe's bonuses to Atk/Def, unit deals +25 damage (excluding area-of-effect Specials), reduces damage from foe's attacks by 15 (excluding area-of-effect Specials), reduces damage from foe's Specials by an additional 15 (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and reduces the percentage of foe's non-Special "reduce damage by X%" skills by 50% during combat (excluding area-of-effect Specials). |
|
Cooldown Count = 5 When Special triggers, boosts damage by the greater of unit's Def or foe's Def. Reduces damage from foe's attacks by 40% during combat (excluding area-of-effect Specials). If unit initiates combat, grants another action to unit after combat (up to twice per turn). |
|
If unit initiates combat or is within 2 spaces of an ally, grants Atk/Def+10 to unit and unit deals +5 damage during combat (excluding area-of-effect Specials), reduces damage from foe's first attack by 5 ("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 charge +1 to unit per attack during combat (only highest value applied; does not stack). If unit initiates combat, deals 7 damage to foe as combat begins (effects that reduce damage "during combat" do not apply; will not reduce foe's HP below 1), and applies【Divine Vein (Flame)】on 5 spaces in a line centered on foe's space and on the 5 spaces behind those spaces (oriented left to right based on the direction unit is facing) for 1 turn after combat. |
|

If unit's Spd at start of battle ≥ 30, triggers【Potent Follow X%】 during combat (if unit cannot perform follow-up and attack twice, X = 100; otherwise, X = 50; "at start of battle" excludes increases to Spd granted after ally is deployed, such as Legendary Effects, Mythic Effects, Bonus Heroes, Great Talent, etc.). |

| When Special triggers, boosts damage by unit's max Special cooldown count value x 4 (excluding area-of-effect Specials). If unit initiates combat, grants another action to unit after combat (once per turn; triggers only when unit's Range = 1). Neutralizes effects that grant unit another action after combat and after unit acts and effects that are triggered at those times (such as effects that re-enable Canto after Canto triggers or effects that inflict Gravity on unit and unit's Pair Up cohort); does not apply to Specials like Galeforce that grant unit another action when triggered, status effects like Share Spoils, or effects that grant unit another action if an Assist skill is used. |

| 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.
+Atk / -Spd
The best IVs for Emblem Edelgard are +Atk and -Spd. Edelgard's Atk is a superboon and is her best asset, utilizing multiple actions to land devastating attacks and knock out groups of foes. Boosting her Atk leads to higher damage output, making her job easier throughout the battle.
Edelgard's Spd is her least important stat at only base 30. Additional investment won't allow her to keep up the fast metagame foes, while ignoring it still lets her outspeed all the slow tank units in the game that aim to soak up damage. It is a safe bane to take.

How to Use, Explanation
Emblem Edelgard's base kit already works well to have her function as an offensive initiator or cleaner, defeating groups of foes with her multiple extra actions. Emblem Eirika Ring allows for extra attacks; Celica Ring can also work if more mobility is needed.

It is advised to acquire both Patience and one skill line using Emblem Edelgard as inheritance fodder. However, she is a very powerful unit, and is also an Emblem Hero too.
Keeping at least one copy of her is essential for every player's barracks.
