Neutral Ayra, builds?

Neutral Ayra is great, she doesn’t need a boon to be effective, and all of her banes have pretty sizeable downside (hp and def lowers by 4, -1BST; and -res makes her even more fragile against mages, which sucks because she actually has the sweet spot of hp+res with high speed, and can tank a lot of mages.)

Neutral IVs are fine, we were all talking about how OP she was going to be when we thought she was free.

For builds it’s pretty straight forward,

Weapon: Ayra’s Blade
Assist: Reposition / Draw Back / Flexible
Special: Regnal Astra / Galeforce
A-Slot: Swift Sparrow / Life and Death
B-Slot: Desperation
C-Slot: Threaten Speed / Threaten Defence / Flexible
Sacred Seal: Speed +3 / Attack +3

There’s also a Wrath build, but it’s not quite as good,

Weapon: Slaying Edge+ / Ayra’s Blade
Assist: Reposition / Draw Back/ Flexible
Special: Regnal Astra
A-Slot: Fury
B-Slot: Wrath
C-Slot: Threaten Attack / Threaten Defence / Flexible
Sacred Seal: Attack +3 / Speed +3 / Phantom Speed 3

Hope this helps.

I actually had a build for her when she was announced to be free. Mind you, I planned it all out with Summoner Support, +2 merge, stuff like that because I had a strong feeling she would be a GHB unit. I was wrong unfortunately. I think her base kit is fantastic though, all you would need is a C slot and assist skill. Threaten Def and Reposition should work. In my build I gave her L&D 3 because with summoner support she would lose 3 Def and 3 Res, while gaining 7 Atk and 7 Spd. Combined with +2 merge, she only loses 2 Def and gains +8 atk and spd.

Hey. Having neutral IV is great. This means you won't have to tinker her bulk, but also means she won't have an increase to her offensive stats, but I still consider it one of the best IV's for her.

You can use Summoner Support to further increase her overall stats. As for builds, everyone here has offered their builds and I stuck to the very first build in mind for Ayra.
