Did you play the Tempest Trials that happened with the festival dancer units?

If not, you're not going to get him for a long while. Unless he shows up on another Heroic Feats or something.

If you want something very similar, use a +Def Draug; he should be very easy to get being 3-4 star.

We got an extra copy in one of the more recent tempest trials (maybe a month or two ago). Units like this don't get reruns too often, so we can't reliably tell anything.

If you have a safeguard, def 3, earthboost 3, and another armor with ward you will hit 65 def when attacked. 69 with L!tiki earth element, then 74 def with her c skill. This and any seal with her that gives def makes arden the most busted def unit ingame! Course no summoner or unit S added lol 😎

True to that 😁, i even did some math against a neutral atk Zelgius with brave sword+, DB3, BF, QP seal combo with your build and it can survive 2 black luna's with 4hp left. Sadly my build can only take 1 black luna (this includes the earth blessing + L!tiki's c skill) then he'll die to the second one. ;n;

Inflated stats for the win! I ran mine against yours and while i couldn't find a simulator that could run the amount of times they had to hit eachother yours was defs trending towards a win lol

I'm largely confused why we're running healing Specials rather than Bonfire/Ignis. His killing potential is reliant on those procs with these builds, and likely doesn't need any kind of healing unless hit by tomes/dragonstones, where both are likely to KO him anyway.

To keep up his HP duh.... it's not called HP Arden for nothing lol Also the 2 turn noontime procs the 10 from the wo dao. Ultimately it's a meme build, but it's budget and effective haha

Well im not basing with given builds here using ignis/bonfire since im preserving his A AND B skills. Yes they do give killing capabilities for arden, but i do have a team of him lol. I made 2 for taking hits, and the 3rd pure offense, and this is a meme team i had i in mind for awhile 😂

But nothing is doing damage to him unless it's targeting resistance (that's likely to kill, even with that insane HP) or is blue with Triangle Adept. I guess what I mean to say is, yes, when it comes in handy it's a Godsend, but that situation seems far too unlikely in comparison to the benefit of that damage potential, especially if used in Arena. But that's just how I see it.

But a whole team of Arden's sounds phenomenal! Are you running Wards, because that would just be hilarious.

This is how my Arden will look as soon as I manage a Kliff to sack. This is without any other buffs from any sources. With Attack Smoke triggered he's sitting on 119/105 mixed bulk. 40 res with Deflect on a unit guaranteed to get doubled is outrageous even before accounting for HP.

And on proc, he's getting an additional 43 damage. Special Fighter allows him to take damage from ranged and have Ignis fully charged for the next combat. Additionally, if you find Deflect Magic to be overkill, you can run Quick Riposte Seal in order to unleash an Ignis in every melee combat so long as you are within QR's threshold. Aether, too, for longevity if you find it needed.

I typically run Titania on all my teams, so +6 to all stats is pretty manageable for me, and I've got several capable healers if I need 'em.
