Legendary Byleth (F) Best IVs
Recommended IVs
| Stat | Superboon/Superbane | IV Recommendation |
|---|---|---|
| HP (18) |  | ★★★☆☆ |
| Atk (9) | | ★★★★★ |
| Spd (10) |  | ★★★★★ |
| Def (4) | | ★★☆☆☆ |
| Res (9) |  | ★★★☆☆ |
◯ = Stat gains +4 with a superboon, ✕= Stat goes down by -4 with a superbane, - = No assets or flaws
| See the IV Checker for All Units | Trait Fruits—How to Change IVs |
When using an Ascendant Floret, we recommend getting the next superboon if it fits the hero. If not, consider what stat your hero needs most.
+Spd/-Def
The best IVs for Legendary Byleth (F) are +Spd and -Def. Her entire kit is reliant on boosting her Spd as much as possble, thus the decision to take it as a boon.
Byleth's Def is very low, and she shouldn't be taking attacks from physical units in the first place so this is the best bane she can take.
+Spd for a +10 Merge
We recommend a +Spd IV when merging Legendary Byleth (F) to 10. This is for the same reasons as above.

This effect makes it easy to raise your arena score when playing her on your team.
Legendary Byleth (F) Strengths
Professorial Guide is a Powerful Tome
Byleth repeatedly attacks the Red Fafnir!
Professorial Guide is a powerful tome, assuming Legendary Byleth (F) meets the conditions to activate it in combat.
It grants an accelerated Special cooldown no matter what, and provides additional effects if Byleth initiates combat or if she is within 2 spaces of an ally.
Below is a summary of its effects if Byleth initiates combat or if she is within 2 spaces of an ally:
| 1 | Grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5 during combat |
|---|---|
| 2 | Neutralizes Guard effects that the foe applies to Byleth |
In addition to this, Professorial Guide also grants the following effects to allies within 2 spaces of Byleth:
| 1 | Neutralizes effects that grant 'Special cooldown charge +X' to foe during combat |
|---|---|
| 2 | Neutralizes effects that inflict 'Special cooldown charge -X' on unit during combat |
This powerful tome not only strengthens Byleth during combat, it also empowers her allies! It is perfect for a professor like Byleth.
Goddess Bearer Boosts Atk/Spd and grants Null Follow-Up and Warp statuses
Legendary Byleth (F) comes with a unique Passive C skill in Goddess Bearer.
This skill activates at the start of each turn and grants Byleth Atk/Spd+7, the 【Null Follow-Up】status, and the ability to warp to an adjacent space to any ally within 2 spaces.
The Atk/Spd bonus received here is a visible bonus, which works perfectly with her native Atk/Spd Ideal 4 skill!
Legendary Byleth (F) Weaknesses
Dependence on Spd Checks and other Conditions
Legendary Byleth (F)'s unique skills require her to either initiate combat or be within 2 spaces of an ally. These may restrict your movement and action plans for future turns if you want to keep these skills active.
Additionally, Byleth needs to win a Spd check to activate the Null Follow-Up effect of Goddess Bearer. With common meta units having high speed, Byleth needs to be invested well enough to ensure she wins the Spd check every time.
