Best IV for LA!Lilina

I ended up with getting 3 LA!Lilina from my hunt for W!Lissa and L!Lyn from the legendary banner so far and two of them have pretty good IV's with one having +Atk -Res and the other one having +Spd -Hp. I already have a +Spd -Atk. one from the original banner build up with Gronnblade+, Moonbow, Life and Death 3 and Desperation 3 so now I wanted to merge them all together but I don't know which IV spread suits her better for an offensive Bladetome nuke

+atk is the way to go. there are other green tome cavaliers that have lower attack but more speed so attack is what makes her stand out. she is ment for one-shotting since she can't double safely.

There are only 2 Green tome cavaliers faster than Lilina. It's Olwen and Gunnthra, and both are 5star locked. If OP has Lilina as their main Gronnblade unit used for clearing lots of maps in the game, +spd is the way to go because she can reach even more doubles. With buffs, the utility that +spd gives is much greater than +atk, unless OP already has a +10 Thunderhead Olwen.

ok sorry, but what even is your first argument?? Olwen and Gunnthra are 5 star locked but LA Lilina is a 5 locked SEASONAL unit.
If you invest in her speed she immediately becomes a completely outclassed Olwen. Olwen does every single thing better than LA lilina except for raw damage.
I don't give advise on how to beat a lunatic story map I give advise on making characters do the roles they are best at and bringing out their potential.

"If you invest in her speed she immediately becomes a completely outclassed Olwen."

But the issue with this is that not everyone will get a WT!Olwen, or has one one already available. The OP didn't say anything about having one, so saying that she'd be outclassed by Olwen is kind of a moot point.

A +spd Lilina has 34 speed, which we know for a fact that the OP has.

A WT!Olwen, which we don't even know if the OP has, has 35 speed neutral, 32 if they do get one with a speed bane, which is completely possible.

Speed boons are to secure doubles and prevent doubling. I personally would rather have a speed boon over an attack boon, but not everyone is the same way.

Report

Just as you said! It is a known fact that OP's +spd Lilina with at least 1 merge would be just 2 pts. slower than Olwen, who is wielding the same bladetome build, and STILL have 5 pts of attack over her.

Report

My point is that you should build what you have. Who knows if OP is ever going to get an Olwen or Gunnthra, I sure haven't. My advice is to build a solid Gronnblade unit *if* OP does not yet have one, as it can beat any map in the game, including Arena if she's got the buffs. Additionally, 63 atk is the max she can reach, but it's nothing n higher tiers of Arena where Hector has 60atk unbuffed. Both deathblow sets and gronnblade sets require a lot of investment, and OP has already invested into a gronnblade set.

Plus with +atk, you can only nuke maybe 1 out of 4 units, depending on their res. With +spd and Glimmer, you can sweep whole maps if she's buffed enough to attack twice.

edit: plus, merges for horse cavalry to take you into the upper tiers of Arena are a joke, unless you're a whale and have +10 gunnthra or Olwen. I tried with Cecilia but her BST is a joke. If you're so focused on Arena, you wouldn't be building up a +1 LA Lilina for your core anyway.

Yeah. Just different points of view, and it really depends on what resources people have tbh and what their needs are.

and...this is certainly not the longest comment chain I've seen XD

Sorry about the lack of clarity guys. Before i got Lilina on the Love Abounds Banner I used the neutral Cecilia from the daily maps at 5 stars with a normal gronnblade because hadn't had the feathers to 5 star a Nino but with Lilina having a better offensive statline than Cecilia I invested the feathers into her and she turned out pretty good and i gave Cecilia her gronnraven+ triangle adept set. And with Lilina I don't really had the interest into summoning a Olwen and the game refuses to give me Gunnthra x(

edit: that's a lot of 'and's XD

Therefore, +spd Lilina will be your best bet, I think, since you have no faster green cavaliers. She the comparison pic above, your Lilina will still pack a punch if you go with +spd instead of +atk.

Report

+Spd - HP best set for Gronnblade by far. The whole point of bladetomes is to nuke using LnD and Desperation, so +spd helps her secure a lot more doubles.
