Rip Legendary Lucina

Honestly thought she would be faster... not too bad though
Stats are (if you haven’t seen it yet)
Hp: 36
Atk: 34
Spd: 35
Def: 25
Res: 20

With weapon equipped: (neutral)
Hp: 36
Atk: 48
Spd: 38
Def: 25
Res: 20

On Iniation: (against ranged)
Hp: 36
Atk: 52
Spd: 42
Def: 25
Res: 20

On iniation: (against melee)
Hp: 36
Atk: 56
Spd: 46
Def: 29
Res: 24

That means against melee, she reaches Ishtar’s iniation speed. That’s pretty crazy

Remember that her weapon grants +3 Spd, so Neutral L!Lucina has an effective 38 Spd.

While not as fast as Karla, L!Ryoma, or SF!Nino, she still pretty fast and is in-line with all of the Spd powercreep that is happening as of late.

Report

She's on the slow end of the recent spd powercreep, according to the study I did recently. She ties with Legault. Shigure is 2 pts faster if his weapon refine is spd.

Report

Yeah, I can see that the raw Spd alone isn't that impressive in the face of those other units, but her weapon also grants the additional +4 (to that, and all of her other stats barring HP) against the most relevant / common units when she initiates while some of the others don't get that luxury.

Report

Ah, I misread. I thought it odd that her weapon wouldn't be much good without close counter while she comes instead with SS.

In this case, yes she's quite fast. 56 atk won't be enough against the really tough opponents, but it's quite solid.

Report

She does have 1 point higher atk than B!Lyn and same spd, by archer standards that's good.

Either way if it's your waifu you don't care about IVs you just want her, or Husbando for the ladies out there.

Brave Lyn had Sacae’s blessing, the range of a cavalier (remember trenches didn’t exist yet), and speed powercreep didn’t happen yet.

Lucina’s definitely good, but probably won’t cause a ripple in the meta, whereas Brave Lyn dropped a one ton boulder onto its face

Yeah I agree and I'm just comparing stats to tell if she has really good stats.
I did the math and she can reach up to mid 40 spd with out buffs or SI.
35(neutral)>38(+spd IV)>41(+3 spd from weapon)>45(swift sparrow)>49(+4 from weapon effect).

Report

Well, she's much faster. Her weapon nets her +4 (or is it +3?) to every stat on offense, and she has swift sparrow, so that is about 7-8 points in atk and speed. Netting her, on neutral, 45-47 speed. She actually reaches Ishtar's speed levels and she's a bow unit. She's not bad at all.

Report

I'm inclined to take an atk boon and try to one-shot reds. Minimum 70 physical bulk to survive. Even squishy blue mages are busted. Armours might lose to a moonbow if they're not green. Dragons get doubled without a spd boon, so the extra atk will do more.

Report

Honestly, pretty impressive. When/if we get Atk/Spd Link in the future, she could use it quite well thanks to Future Vision, or just stick with the standard Desperation. Defensive stats aren't too shabby either. She'll be a good user of the Flashing Blade seal, so I could see her using that and Moonbow to increase her damage output a bit more. Very curious as to how people will build her!
