Might: 14 Range: 2 Calculates damage from staff like other weapons. Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1; max cooldown count value cannot be reduced below 1). For foes within 3 rows or 3 columns centered on unit, inflicts Atk/Spd/Def/Res-5, reduces the percentage of foe's non-Special "reduce damage by X%" skills by 50% (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and neutralizes foe's non-Special "if foe would reduce unit's HP to 0, unit survives with 1 HP" effects during combat. Grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+10 to unit, unit deals +25 damage (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and reduces damage from foe's attacks by 15 during combat (excluding area-of-effect Specials). Unit can use the following 【Style】: Freeze Style |
|
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.) |
|
Cooldown Count = 5 If an Assist skill is used, unit's Special cooldown count does not go down. When Special triggers, boosts damage by 70% of the greater of unit's or foe's Atk (calculates damage from staff after combat damage is added). Reduces damage from foe's first attack by 40% during combat ("first attack" normally means only the first strike; for effects that grant "unit attacks twice," it means the first and second strikes). At start of player phase or enemy phase, grants 【Atk Liberate】 and 【Spd Liberate】 to unit and allies within 2 spaces of unit for 1 turn. |
|
If unit initiates combat or is within 3 spaces of an ally, grants bonus to unit's Atk/Spd = unit's maximum Special cooldown count + 7 during combat, and also, when unit's Special triggers, deals damage = unit's maximum Special cooldown count × X (excluding area-of-effect Specials; if unit triggers the "unit attacks twice" effect, X = 3; otherwise, X = 5). |
|
At start of turn, and after unit acts (if Canto triggers, after Canto), inflicts 【Spd Shackle】 and 【Res Shackle】 on closest foes and foes within 2 spaces of those foes through their next actions. Inflicts Spd/Res-4 on foe and deals damage = number of 【Penalty】 effects active on foe, excluding stat penalties, × 2, + 7 during combat (max 15; excluding area-of-effect Specials). |
|
Enables 【Canto (Dist.; Max 3, Min 1)】. If unit initiates combat, after combat, inflicts 【Undefended】 and 【Discord】 on target and foes within 2 spaces of target through their next actions, and applies 【Divine Vein (Haze)】 on target's space and on each space within 2 spaces of target's space for 1 turn. Grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5 to unit, unit deals +7 damage (excluding area-of-effect Specials), reduces damage from foe's attacks by 7 (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and neutralizes effects that inflict "Special cooldown charge -X" on unit during combat, and also, if decreasing the Spd difference necessary to make a follow-up attack by 10 would allow unit to trigger a follow-up attack (excluding guaranteed or prevented follow-ups), triggers 【Potent Follow 100%】 during combat. |

| Unit can attack foes within 6 spaces of unit and 3 rows or 3 columns centered on unit regardless of unit's range. (Damage dealt by unit's attacks and damage from foe's attacks during that combat are reduced to 0, and foes' Savior effects will not trigger (Røkkr take at least 1 damage).) After combat, inflicts 【Gravity】, 【Isolation】, and status preventing counterattacks on foe through its next action, and grants another action to unit. Unit cannot move or attack structures, after-combat movement effects do not occur, and remaining movement granted from Canto is treated as 0. Unit suffers a counterattack if any of the following conditions are met: foe is armored with Range = 2, foe can counterattack regardless of unit's range, or foe's Range is the same as the distance between unit and foe. Skill effect's Range is treated as 2. This Style can be used only once per turn. 【Style】 Change Style using the Style button at the bottom of the screen. A unit's Style is only active when that unit is taking an action. When unit is equipped with a skill that has a Style, unit will not be able to use skills like Duo Skills or Harmonized Skills. Style use is disabled when unit is deployed using Pair Up or when unit is equipped with multiple skills that have a Style. |
Legendary Elise Best IVs

★★★★★ |
| Spd (9) |

★★★☆☆ |
◯ = 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 Elise are +Spd and -Def. Elise's base 48 Spd, raised to 52 with a superboon, allows her to keep up with all the fast metagame units, helping prevent follow-ups from those foes whenever they can engage in combat with her.
Elise's high Spd also helps her generate follow-up attacks against slower foes, ensuring that she can deal significant damage or even knock them out in one round of combat.
Legendary Elise's physical bulk is abysmal and either HP or Def is the ideal bane due to their lack of impact in her survival. We recommend Def as the bane since her base 34 Res is average and may be enough to tank one hit from a magical enemy.

|---|
Legendary Elise Weaknesses
Low Physical Bulk
With base 38 HP and 17 Def, Legendary Elise will fall to any half decent physical attacker.
Elise's role is to use Freeze Style first and then attack, using Canto to retreat afterwards. She is generally safe from retaliation due to the 【Gravity】and 【Isolation】 statuses keeping the enemies at bay. However, there are ways around this, such as using refresher assists or cleansing effects to remove these statuses.
Ensure that she is kept out of reach of any physical attackers after retreating to ensure her survival!
Weak to Cavalry Effective Weapons
Legendary Elise 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!
