Strategy
Caeda is a flier blessed with impeccable Speed and Resistance. She functions as a decent support flier unit by spreading buffs to nearby fliers.
Speaking of Skills, Caeda has access to Fortify Fliers allowing her to patch up the defenses of other fliers. She also has Armorslayer+ to defend herself from aggressive Armored units, however her Defense stat deters her from encountering them unless they are severely weakened.
One of her drawbacks is that she can easily be felled by opposing Bow units because of her glaring weakness, aggravated by her pitiful HP and Defense stats. She also struggles to initiate the first attack unless the enemy is already damaged. This is the case whenever Caeda is pit against non-armored units as her default weapon fails to deal effective bonus.
For the team composition, Caeda enjoys being deployed alongside other fliers that appreciate the additional defensive buffs she manages to share. To compensate for her low Defense, Cherche makes a great addition to sponge blue lance attacks. On the other hand, Cordelia who has access to Brave Lance+ takes care of opposing Reds.
Counter
- Caeda dislikes dealing with most non-armored high defense and high attack red and blue units. For variants built to deal multiple damage, these can be prevented by assigning units with Wary Fighter 3.
- Leon – Although Caeda outspeeds him, his effective against bonus coupled with the added effect from his bow provides him with enough tools to score heavy damage.
- Camus – He threatens Caeda due to his mobility and well-rounded stats which shrugs off Caeda’s terrible attack with minimal effort.
- Berkut – His Defense and color advantage makes him a force to be reckoned with even with passable Attack. Sharing the same mobility as Camus, he has the advantage of catching up on fliers on maps not lined with trees or mountains.
