Preferred IV: +SPD or +ATK
-
Due to the nature of this set being offensive, Olwen appreciates an asset in key stats such as Attack and Speed.
Weapon: Thunderhead (+Eff)
-
The special effect refinement on Thunderbrand further compliments this offensive playstyle by inflicting -5 Spd/Res to opponents during combat against both her as well as any nearby allies.
Assist: Reposition
Special: Glimmer / Luna
-
Glimmer is a great choice of Special on any Blade Tome user, as it scales with the additional damage received from Hone/Fortify buffs. Since Thunderhead doesn’t have the Special cooldown penalty tied to a standard Blade Tome, Glimmer can also be activated in a single round of combat when paired with Heavy/Flashing Blade.
Passive A: Swift Sparrow / Atk/Spd Solo
-
At its maximum level, Swift Sparrow grants Olwen the strongest overall boost to her offensive stats with a whopping +6 Attack and +7 Speed on initiation
-
If the former are unavailable, Atk/Spd Solo also makes for a great choice of A skill by providing a similarly strong boost to Olwen’s offensive stats when not adjacent to any allies.
Passive B: Desperation / Lull Atk/Res / Lull Spd/Res
-
Desperation is the cornerstone of any offensive glass cannon mage build. Once in the HP range, Olwen will be able to safely double her opponents without the risk of getting killed on the counterattack.
-
In exchange for continuous combat, Olwen can take a more aggressive approach by running Lull skills in order to neutralize the bonuses of and debuff her opponents during combat.
Passive C: Join Hone Spd / Cavalry Buffs / Flexible
-
Joint skill buffs such as Join Hone Speed greatly benefit both Olwen as well as any adjacent allies by granting both a significant stat boost at the start of turn.
-
Class-exclusive skills such as Hone Cavalry and Goad Cavalry also make for solid team-based options.
-
Otherwise, the C skill can be replaced as needed to suit the team.
Sacred Seal: Heavy Blade / Swift Sparrow / Hardy Bearing
-
Heavy Blade makes for a very effective Sacred Seal by allowing Olwen to consistently accelerate the cooldown of her Specials thanks to the damage scaling property of Blade tomes.
-
Any skill that grants an offensive boost on initiation such as Swift Sparrow also makes for a suitable Sacred Seal option.
-
Hardy Bearing acts as a tool to prevent opponents from using skills that change attack priority. In particular, this is useful on Aether Raids defense teams against strategies that utilize Vantage.

Glimmer | C | Pulse Smoke 3 Alternate: Res Smoke 3 |
IVs | +ATK | S | Brazen Atk/Spd 3 Alternate: Fierce Stance 3 |
Weapon: Thunderhead (+Atk)
-
Another great use of Olwen’s unique Blade tome and an effective choice for Aether Raids offense is the Vantage sweeper setup. With it, an asset in Attack is preferable above all else in order to deal as much damage as possible in a single hit. Additionally, Thunderhead should be refined for +Atk, as the special refinement effect does not work during the Enemy Phase.
Assist: Reposition
Special: Glimmer
-
The choice of Special is mostly inconsequential but Glimmer will remain the strongest option thanks to the damage scaling property of Blade tomes.
Passive A: Close Counter
Passive B: Vantage
-
The main focus of this set is running Close Counter with Olwen. Upon hitting the HP threshold for Vantage, any subsequent opponents that initiate on Leila are forced to take at least one hit before having the chance to counterattack.
Passive C: Pulse Smoke / Res Smoke / Savage Blow
-
Res Smoke is a fantastic choice of C skill with this playstyle. By reducing the magical bulk of opponents around Olwen after combat, any affected targets that initiated on her afterward will be hit even harder.
-
Savage Blow can make for a suitable alternative. Although it only works during the Player Phase, it can prove to be effective when initiating by dealing 7 damage to all enemies around the target after combat.
-
Pulse Smoke is a great choice for stalling the Special activation of enemy teams that heavily utilize Infantry Pulse, making it much easier to take an initial hit.
Sacred Seal: Brazen Atk/Def / Fierce Stance
-
For Olwen’s Sacred Seal, anything that boosts raw damage during the Enemy Phase such as Brazen Atk/Res or Fierce Stance makes for a great choice.
-
The most notable weakness of this build are opponents that prevent counterattacks or disable skills that change attack priority. As such, be wary of any Dazzling Staff healers, Firesweep users, or any unit equipped with the skill Hardy Breaking.
Strengths
Thunderhead
Thunderhead is a strong offensive weapon that carries the damage-scaling properties of a Blade tome without any cooldown penalty tied to it.
Good Speed
Olwen’s solid 35 base Speed makes her proficient in both performing and avoiding follow-up attacks.
Cavalry
In addition to her superior mobility, Olwen has access to class-exclusive buffs such as Hone Cavalry and Goad Cavalry
Weaknesses
Very Poor Physical Bulk
With a meager 53 physical bulk at base, Olwen is forced to take countermeasures in order to survive more than one round of combat against physical opponents that can retaliate.
Cavalry
While being a cavalry unit has its advantages, it can also be a detriment. On top of forests and trenches making it harder to navigate maps, Olwen has an innate weakness to cavalry effective weapons. Additionally, cavalry units also have limited access to certain skills.

Glass cannon build.
This build aims to maximise Olwen's atk and spd. With skills like Life&Death (LD), Chill Spd 3 and Thuderhead's eff+, Olwen debuffs the enemies' spd/res and buffs her own spd. This increases the likelihood she will double even the fastest of units. She will hit very hard on player phase thus further damaging the enemy with Savage Blow. The damage and debuffs can be used to aid other units in taking down particularly tough enemies.
Since LD decreases her res and def, this makes her more fragile, thus she can go into brazen rage quite easily. The brazen skill will boost her offensive capabilities and res, thus improving her survivability against mages. (This skill can be swapped out with Braz Atk/Spd if you want to fully vapitalize on her offense though).
Glimmer is used for the low cool down.

When I saw that there was an Olwen that didn't suck, I got really happy. Indeed, she does not suck. On a tactics team, she is truly unrelenting. I went for L and D over SS mainly so she would have a higher arena score.

My most terrifying mage. On a cavalry team, she can dish out monstrous amounts of damage. With a hone cavalry buff and Reinhardt next to her, (they have an S support) she can double a +spd Karla with even spd wave active. She mows down everything in her path.

Atk Boon is also an option, but her being a Blade Tome but better, I'd go full speed, because she still reaches 44 atk, that will be 48 with swift sparrow and this way she has 41spd, 45with swift sparrow, both pretty solid numbers, and, like I said earlier, this is a blade tome, that means it is a crime not to fit her in a horse emblem team that can give her hone and fortify cavalry, that resultin on +24 additional damage and having 54 atk and 51 spd on initiation, Glimmer is the best option for a blade tome, no doubt here.
And last but not least, if you want to get into desperation range more safely, you can go with Fury 3, but that also reduces your damage and speed by 2, or if you are a rebel, forget her expensive and precious swift sparrow and go all guns blazing with Life and Death 3.

"Run in the Mill" Bladetome build for Olwen. +spd, -res can work too as long she with a Horse Emblem team or Mixed Tactics team. As for seals, Atk 3 seal is good for buff team that can give plus +6. While buffs that are Plus +4 and drive/spur works with Spd 3 seal.
