Legendary Seliph

Weapon: Virtuous Tyrfing

Assist: Reposition / Preference

Special: Noontime / Sol

Passive A: Distant Counter

Passive B: Holy War’s End

Passive C: Pulse Smoke / Joint Hone Def / Preference

Sacred Seal: Mirror Stance / Sturdy Stance / Quick Riposte

• Legendary Seliph excels during Enemy Phase thanks to his two powerful exclusive skills: Virtuous Tyrfing allows him to reduce the Attack and Defense of foes by -6 during combat in addition to healing 7 HP per attack, as long as his foe initiates combat or he’s below 100% HP, While his other exclusive skill functions as an upgraded Quick Riposte, granting Seliph the ability to perform a guaranteed Follow-Up Attack before the opponent can counter. Be aware that this can backfire against foes with Deflect Melee, which will greatly reduce the amount of damage Seliph inflicts with his 2nd Attack. 
• Distant Counter is Legendary Seliph’s preferred A slot skill, as it allows him to counterattack ranged units that would otherwise be able to attack him without fear. He also starts with Distant Counter in his base kit, meaning no additional investment is required to get it.
• A healing Special such as Noontime or Sol gives l!Seliph additional sustain alongside his weapon. With Brave Lucina support, Noontime is ideal, while Sol is preferred without it.
• Pulse Smoke is a great C slot skill for Enemy Phase units, as it allows them to slow down enemy specials after combat. Seliph’s innate Joint Hone Def is also a solid choice, as it gives himself and adjacent allies additional Defense. Otherwise, his C slot can be swapped according to the needs of the team.
• Finally, Defensive Sacred Seals such as Mirror Stance are ideal to further enhance Seliph’s Enemy Phase performance. Alternatively, using the Quick Riposte sacred seal allows Seliph to nullify the effects of Follow-up prevention skills such as Wary Fighter and Sturdy Impact during Enemy Phase.

Weapon: Virtuous Tyrfing

Assist: Reposition / Preference

Special: Bonfire

Passive A: Distant Counter

Passive B: Lull Atk/Def

Passive C: Joint Drive Attack / Preference

Sacred Seal: Fierce Stance

• Legendary Seliph can also opt for a more aggressive Enemy Phase build by virtue of his fantastic Attack and exclusive weapon. By bolstering his already excellent Attack stat with skills such as Lull Atk/Def and Fierce Stance, Seliph can KO many foes in a single blow during Enemy Phase.
• This build prefers a damaging Special to ensure more KO’s during Enemy Phase, and Seliph can take great advantage of Bonfire thanks to his high Defense.
• Lull Atk/Def combines wonderfully with Virtuous Tyrfing, altogether inflicting a massive -9 penalty to Attack and Defense, in addition to Lull Atk/Def negating the foe’s buffs in these stats, which greatly increases Seliph’s durability and damage output during Enemy Phase.
• Distant Counter remains essential to Seliph, as it allows him to counterattack ranged foes that would otherwise attack him without fear.
• Joint Drive Attack gives Seliph an additional 4 Attack as long as he has an ally within two Spaces during combat, helping him maximize his damage output further.
• Finally, Fierce Stance gives Seliph +6 Attack during Enemy Phase, granting him another significant boost to his damage output.
