◯ = 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.
Neutral IVs by default!
As a hero obtainable only through Tempest Trials, Summer Vaike will always have neutral IVs by default. The only way to access IVs for this unit is through using Trait Fruits.
+Atk / -Spd
The best IVs for Summer Vaike are +Atk and -Spd. Summer Vaike's Atk is among the best in the entire game at base 47, and lacking an exclusive skill all but requires him to invest into his Atk stat to match the firepower of modern units.
Summer Vaike's Spd is in this awkward area where investment won't be enough to prevent follow-up attacks against the fastest metagame foes, while being excessive to outspeed the slower metagame units. Spd is a safe bane to take as it will not impact most of his matchups.
+Def for a +10 merge
We recommend a +Def IV when merging Summer Vaike up to +10. Def is a superboon and combining both it and the bonus stats from merges, dragonflowers, and weapon refinement can increase his Def up to base 51, which is high enough to tank attacks from physical heavy hitters.

Summer Vaike Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses
Summer Vaike Roles
Vaike - Sunbaked Stunner Roles | |||
---|---|---|---|
Close-Physical | Ranged-Physical | Close-Magic | Ranged-Magic |
Physical Wall | Magic Wall | Effective Weapon | Movement Assist |
Exclusive Skill | All-Range Counter | Recovery | Refresher |
Legendary | Mythic | Duo / Harmonized | Resplendent |
Summer Vaike is a close physical attacker (range = 1). Therefore, when not accounting for the Weapon Triangle, the amount of damage he deals will be equivalent to his Atk minus the foe's Def stat.
Summer Vaike Strengths
Tropical Conch+ provides out-of-combat support and grants Atk/Def bonuses
Summer Vaike's inheritable weapon Tropical Conch+ grants Atk/Def+6 to Vaike and nearby allies at the start of each turn, and grants Atk/Spd bonuses in-combat dependent on the current turn: on an even-numbered turn, it grants Atk/Def+5, and on an odd-numbered turn, it grants Atk/Def+11.
It also grants a Tempo effect during combat if Summer Vaike wins a Def check.
While not quite at the level of exclusive or Arcane weapons, Tropical Conch+ provides just enough to be a viable option on a budget, making Summer Vaike a useful physical tank.
Summer Vaike Weaknesses
Lack of Unique Skills
Summer Vaike suffers from not having any unique skills to call his own, making him unable to stand out amongst other units.
Axe Infantry units are quite abundant in the game, and lacking an exclusive weapon makes Summer Vaike replaceable by better units.
