Winter Dimitri Skills at 5★

Blue Yule Axe Might: 16　 Range: 1 Enables 【Canto (2)】. Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). At start of turn, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants Atk/Spd+6 and 【Null Follow-Up】 to unit for 1 turn. At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+X to unit (X = 5+ 15% of unit's Spd at start of combat) and grants Special cooldown count-Y to unit before unit's first attack during combat (Y = number of spaces from start position to end position of whoever initiated combat, max 3; if number of 【Bonus】 effects active on unit, excluding stat bonuses, ≥ 4, then the value is treated as 3), and restores 7 HP to unit after combat.

No Quarter Cooldown Count = 3 Boosts damage by X% of unit's Atk when Special triggers (if foe is armored, X = 40; otherwise, X = 30). If Special triggers, neutralizes foe's "reduces damage by X%" effects from non-Special skills.

Atk/Spd Prime 4 If 【Bonus】 is active on unit, grants Atk/Spd+X to unit during combat (X = number of【Bonus】effects active on unit, excluding stat bonuses, × 2, + 3; max 9), and also, if number of【Bonus】effects active on unit (excluding stat bonuses) ≥ 4, unit can counterattack regardless of foe's range during combat.

Barbarity At start of combat, if foe's HP ≥ 25%, inflicts Atk/Spd/Def-4 on foe during combat, deals damage 25% of unit's Atk (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and reduces damage from foe's first attack by 40% during combat ("first attack" normally means only the first strike; for effects that grant "unit attacks twice," it means the first and second strikes), and also, after combat, grants 【Vantage】 and 【Dodge】 to unit and inflicts Atk/Spd/Def/Res-6 on target and foes within 3 spaces of target through their next actions.

Panic Smoke 4 After combat, inflicts Atk/Spd/Def/Res-3 and 【Panic】 on target and foes within 2 spaces of target through their next actions, and grants 【Foe Penalty Doubler】 to unit and allies in cardinal directions. 【Foe Penalty Doubler】 Inflicts penalty on foe's Atk/Spd/Def/Res during combat = any current penalty on each of those stats through their next action. Calculates each stat penalty independently.

Winter Dimitri Best IVs

Recommended IVs

Stat	Superboon/Superbane	IV Recommendation
HP (19)		★★★☆☆
Atk (8)		★★★★★
Spd (13)		★★★★★
Def (8)		★★★☆☆
Res (4)		★☆☆☆☆

◯ = Stat gains +4 with a superboon, ✕= Stat goes down by -4 with a superbane, - = No assets or flaws

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 / -Res

The best IVs for Winter Dimitri are +Spd and -Res. Although a superbane, Winter Dimitri will benefit from having more speed, as this guarantees him attacking twice.

Res is his dump stat, and since it's already his lowest stat, there's really no need to improve it. It's safe to keep it low as his bane.

+Spd for a +10 merge

We recommend a +Spd IV when merging Winter Dimitri up to +10, as Spd is his most important stat and should be boosted as much as possible.

Winter Dimitri Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses

Winter Dimitri Roles

Dimitri - Blessed Protector 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

Winter Dimitri 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/her Atk minus the foe's Def stat.

Winter Dimitri Strengths

Blue Yule Axe Triggers Special on Clash

With the help of Blue Yule Axe, Winter Dimitri can always trigger his special, No Quarter, with the only condition of taking the (maximum) movement space before starting combat. This also applies to enemies who initiate combat, allowing Winter Dimitri to get the Special cooldown reduction even on enemy phase turns.

Other than the Special cooldown charge reduction, he also gets Null Follow-Up at the start of combat, along with other stat buffs such as Atk/Spd+6 on HP check, and 7 HP recovery after combat.

Barbarity Provides Dodge and Vantage

Winter Dimitri also comes with the exclusive B skill Barbarity. In addition to the stat penalties and damage reduction it provides, Barbarity allows him to use Vantage and 【Dodge】, making him a versatile unit capable of surviving any phase he finds himself in.

Furthermore, he can also counter regardless of the foe's range with Atk/Spd Prime 4. This makes him even tougher to beat, especially when he triggers Vantage, which allows him to attack first during enemy turns.

Winter Dimitri Weaknesses

Weak to Cavalry Effective Weapons

Winter Dimitri takes 1.5x damage from cavalry-effective weapons like Thani or Binding Reginleif, and one blow from this type of weapon will deal significant damage. Make sure you know what weapons you are up against before hopping too far into the line of battle!

Winter Dimitri as a Source Hero

Winter Dimitri offers Panic Smoke 4, Atk/Spd Prime 4, and No Quarter as great skill inheritance options.

While it's possible to get Panic Smoke 4 and No Quarter in one go, we recommend waiting for a demote unit that comes with Atk/Spd Prime 3 first to avoid wasting Atk/Spd Prime 4.
