Boons
- +ATK is always a nice boon in order to hit harder. Corrin's ATK is somewhat low so adding some investment to this stat does help. It is also worth noting that Corrin has a superboon in ATK.
- +SPD is mainly used for its defensive properties. Corrin's SPD allows her to block out potential follow-up attacks and further increasing it allows Corrin to do so more reliably.
Neutral
- DEF is one of Corrin's most defining traits. Ideally, Corrin should try to avoid taking a bane in DEF. However, it is unnecessary for Corrin to further invest in it as well as her base amount is adequate.
- RES is a little bit arguable, however, it is also recommended to leave it alone to ensure that she can survive some fights against magic damage. Taking a bane in RES is less punishing when compared to DEF; however, you will need to be even more careful against magical foes such as mages and dragons.
Banes
- -HP is overall Corrin's least important stat. The +5 HP gained from refining her weapon can easily compensate for the loss from the bane.

- Passive C: Varies
- Sacred Seal: Quick Riposte / Distant Def
This skill set is heavily focused on being a formidable force in the Enemy Phase.
The standard Quick Riposte and Warding Breath combo with Aether is extremely synergistic with Lightning Breath+. Steady Breath works throughout the Enemy Phase regardless of the opponent or Corrin attacking. With Corrin's good SPD stat, Corrin could easily unleash Aether on her foes in the player phase. The preference of Warding or Steady Breath is up to player's preference, however, Warding Breath does allow Corrin to have a better match-up against mages and other dragons. For a more budget-friendly combination, one could switch out Warding Breath with Fury, and Aether with Moonbow.
While it is possible for Corrin to run Quick Riposte on the B skill slot, Corrin should try to work on increasing her lackluster offensive stat. This could be done with Wrath 3, which increases her damage output and could potentially outright kill a target with a well-timed Aether activation. Aether also allows Corrin to recover back into the Quick Riposte range, which could be extremely handy in certain situations. For a more defensive oriented build, one could also consider using Guard to prevent specials from activating as well.
The remaining skills are up to the player's preferences depending on the team set-up.

- Passive B: Windsweep / Wrath / Swordbreaker
- Passive C: Savage Blow / Varies
- Sacred Seal: Quick Riposte / Phantom Spd / Speed +3
This skill set is heavily focused on neutering your opponent with Dark Breath+.
Corrin being the speediest dragon meant that she is the best dragon to run a debuff-centric set. Using a combination of Windsweep and Quick Riposte, Corrin could easily disable a target of her choice while remaining competitive in the Enemy Phase. The main purpose of this build is to occasionally rush in to debuff her opponents and take literally no damage due to the debuffs. As the focus is to debuff the opponent, running Savage Blow might be a worthy endeavor to further weaken the surroundings.
For the case of Corrin, Distant Counter is there simply to ensure that Corrin could still rush in on ranged opponents and counter them with Quick Riposte. However one could also focus on activating Windsweep using either Swift Sparrow or Darting Blow. Speed-based seals such as Phantom Speed and Speed +3 can also help Corrin in terms of Windsweep activation. Special selection depends on preference. Luna is a good option as Corrin can potentially activate it during her return fire when enemy initiates. Aether is also a good option to provide the healing Corrin needs to get back into Quick Riposte range.
Lastly, Corrin could also leverage Wrath to further enhance her damage output in both Player and Enemy Phase. However, Corrin will lose access to Windsweep, which meant that the debuffs are harder to leverage in the Player Phase.
Introduction
Corrin (F) is one of the two blue dragons that was released during launch along with Nowi. While Nowi is hailed as one of the strongest blue units in the game, often times Corrin is undeservingly under the radar. This is largely due to Corrin’s mediocre ATK stat. However, with the ability to wield a Breath weapon and a rather peculiar stat distribution, Corrin could provide a different form of niche that is radically different from standard builds.
Strengths
Breath Weapon
As mentioned in the Introduction, Breaths are a very potent weapon type. Its main characteristic is its adaptive damage against ranged units, which means it always hits the lower defensive stat of either DEF or RES. Furthermore, there is also a plethora of Breath skills to choose from, ranging from buffs to even the coveted Distant Counter. The Breath weapons can also be refined, further increasing Corrin's options.
Excellent physical bulk
With a good amount of DEF and HP, Corrin is able to take a good chunk of physical punishment. This turns out to be rather relevant as a blue unit due to an abundance of red sword units.
Adequate SPD
While she’s no speed demon, her Speed can be utilized very well in terms of blocking out crucial follow-up from foes. Complemented with her physical bulk, Corrin is a difficult unit to take out in a single round physically.
Weaknesses
Low ATK
Unfortunately, Corrin’s ATK stat is one of the lowest for dragons excluding Ninian. This means that she will struggle to finish foes in a single round. For certain Arena score ranges, this could be detrimental due to dancers with Wings of Mercy.
Mediocre RES
Magically, Corrin cannot really take a hit. She is prone to get outright killed in a single hit by most potent blade tome mages. She will also struggle with the dragon matchups if she chooses to engage in the Player Phase.
Relatively low stats for its class
While her base stat total (BST) is typical of launch units, comparatively against its own dragon class it is considered relatively inferior. Nowi, in particular, has a higher base stat total and is the same color as Corrin. This will have some minor impacts in terms of Arena scoring and possibly explains her relatively peculiar stat distribution.
Team Options
Counters
Corrin’s main weakness is her lack of Resistance and offensive prowess. This meant that Corrin is susceptible to magical attacks, and probably would not be able to finish off units in a single hit. However, with Windsweep as a potentially problematic option for Corrin, engaging her might be necessary.
Non-Windsweep
- Enemy Phase Axe: Enemy Phase Axe units such as both Hectors and Dorcas could also easily take her out, just be careful of Corrin potentially doubling your units.
Windsweep
- Speedy Axe: One of the few ways would be to completely outspeed Corrin to prevent Windsweep from happening. Raven with refined Basilikos is a good choice to do so.
- Green / Blue Magic: Due to her low Resistance, use magic (Naga inclusive) to knock her out, such as Nino, Summer Elise, and Julia. Strong blue magic, such as the Reinhardt and Linde could also take Corrin out with relative ease.
- Green / Blue Dragons: Corrin can be taken out with relative ease by enemy phase green and blue dragons such as Fae, Myrrh, and Nowi.

this is a build that makes corrin a speed demon and a debuff monster as well. the only real damage she will take will be from fury,green units, or falchions/nagas. or if the enemy has really high attack best used for a dragon team

With this set corrin becomes a extreme physical tank. Falchion is no longer a threat and she can tank all most any melee unit with minimal damage. This set turns her into a enemy phase debuff tank.

IV: +SPD/-HP
A rather reliable physical tank which disposes atk and spd of everything she touches, spreading the toxin to the vicinity.
Fury makes her even tankier and helps her with her poor resistance stat, and makes the Vantage threshold easier to get.
Vantage is the B choice because it can kill a unwarned melee attacker with low hp or if her special is up; even if she dies the damage will be significant and as she effectively hits the target the dark breath debuff will spread into the enemy's troops. Quick Riposte is also a good option but she's fast to potentially doubles even without it, unless you'e facing super speedy heroes.
C slot is her Hone Atk, a solid buff to your allies.
Close Def seal takes her bulk even further.
Pair her with a Fortify Dragons unit (preferably Ninian) will skyrocket her Def to 43 in player phase and 49 in enemy phase without any support and spur/drive skills; that combined with her 43 base speed makes her quite unlikely to be insta KO'd to melee enemies.

![]() |

![]() |
Ignis | C | Hone Atk 3 |
| S | Close Def 3 | ||
This Corrin build focuses on being more of a support than an offensive unit.
With refined Dark Breath+ Corrin will be able to inflict -7 atk and spd on the target and foes within two spaces after combat.
Def mode and Armored Blow 3 allow Corrin to initiate combat and drag back foes out of formation, or into allies range while debuffing the target and foes near the target without suffering alot of damage from counter attacks (if the unit is physical).
For Special, you should go with either bonfire or Ignis since your defence is high enough for the skills to do good amount of damage and because Dark Breath already targets the lower of two defences anyway and lowering that won't benefit you much unless you are fighting a unit like Fjorm who has all rounded defences.
Movement option and C skill can be anything your team needs.
For Sacred Seal you should go for Close Def 3.
The added defence on enemy phase helps Corrin tank hits better, and even more so after Corrin has debuffed her foes atk.
