Performing Azura

• Preferred IV: +RES / -DEF
• Weapon: Urðr 
• Assist: Sing
• Special: Luna
• Passive A: Distant Counter
• Passive B: Wings of Mercy / Escape Route
• Passive C: Atk Ploy / Drive Res
• Sacred Seal: Deflect Magic / Atk Ploy

The concept of the build is to leverage on Azura’s relatively high Resistance stat. This is done by using Distant Counter such that she will be able to take on blue mages and kill them on retaliation. For this build we shall keep Urðr to keep her utility as a dancer who can provide stat buffs.

The typical Wings of Mercy on Dancer works, as she will be able to rush to them when the ally is below 50% health. This is extremely useful as the allies who needs help the most are usually the lowest health ones. Alternatively, Escape Route is a good option as she could bait a single combat and activate the passive to provide global support.

The remaining skills are used to further hone Azura’s ability to take on Blue Mages. Atk Ploy allows Performing Azura to have an option to decrease the opponent’s Attack. Deflect Magic is specifically to deal with Reinhardt and OIwen if your team really struggles against them. Atk Ploy is also useful as a general utility skill for your team.

With Urðr's phenomenal stat buffs, this Azura build enables her to bait a blue mage on turn 1, and focus on supporting her allies after that, making her extremely useful throughout the fight.

• Preferred IV: +SPD / -DEF or -HP
• Weapon: Urðr
• Assist: Sing
• Special: Moonbow / Glimmer / Luna
• Passive A: Triangle Adept 
• Passive B: Wings of Mercy / Escape Route
• Passive C: Drive Spd / Drive Res
• Sacred Seal: Spur Spd

Azura’s core skill set is rather competent as a blue duelist that focuses on supporting her allies. We can fill up her remaining skill slots to fill up her niche as a supportive combatant.

Dancers are mostly not expected to go on toe-to-toe with a combat unit of the same color, so using her base Triangle Adept makes a lot of sense to solidify her foundations against the blue units. As she rarely engages in combat, Moonbow is her preferred option though Glimmer can also be used due to Triangle Adept amplifying her Attack in order to one-shot low Defense blue targets. Keeping her default Luna is also a decent option.

The remaining skills are used to support her allies. Wings of Mercy and Escape Route provide immediate assistance when required and can give many combat buffs (Spurs and Drives) upon demand. As the buff effect of Urðr cannot stack with other Hones, it is better to leverage on in-combat buffs as those do stack. The choice of the C slot and Sacred Seal depends on your preference of team support.

This build can check blue mages by baiting and attacking afterward, but usually, dancers should not use their turn to attack an enemy most of the time. It is more ideal for another unit to do the attacking on the behalf of Azura in this case.

• Preferred IV: +ATK or SPD / -DEF or -RES or -HP 
• Weapon: Emerald Axe+
• Assist: Sing
• Special: Moonbow / Luna
• Passive A: Distant Counter / Fury
• Passive B: Wings of Mercy / Escape Route
• Passive C: Drive Res / Flexible
• Sacred Seal: Hone Spd / Flexible

For those who do not rely on Azura’s buff effect, it is possible to drop her Legendary Axe to fuse the Triangle Adept effect into her weapon. This frees up the Passive A slot for a skill that could further increase her combat prowess. Other than that, the philosophy is very similar to the Fate’s Lullaby build above.

The main difference is the supportive skill selection. As her axe is replaced, she can use buff skills without overlapping with her axe effect. This means that Tactic, Hone and Fortifies are all option that are open for Performing Azura when Urðr is replaced. The C skill and Seal slot should be adjusted to buff whatever stat your team desires.

The remaining choices are the same; Moonbow or Glimmer to quickly resolve combat and Wings of Mercy or Escape Route are present for teleportation when required; although this Azura can fight Blue units well, she is still meant primarily to assist with Sing support.
