Xane Skills at 5★


Might: 14  Range: 2
Grants HP+5. Unit's Atk/Spd/Def/Res = highest respective stat from among allies within 2 spaces during combat. (Calculates each stat bonus independently at start of combat. If unit's stat is highest, unit's stat will decrease.)

Range: 1
Moves adjacent ally to opposite side of unit.

Grants Atk/Res+X to unit during combat. (X = 2 x number of allies within 2 spaces + 1; max 7.)

If adjacent infantry allies use sword, lance, axe, bow, or dagger, grants Atk/Spd+2 to those allies and calculates their damage using the lower of foe's Def or Res during combat. (Does not affect damage dealt by Specials that trigger before combat.)

Xane Best IVs

Recommended IVs

Stat Superboon/Superbane IV Recommendation
HP (26) Normal HP ★★★★★
Atk (20) No Attack IV ★★★★☆
Spd (8) No Spd IV ★★★★☆
Def (6) Def Boon ★★☆☆☆
Res (8) Res Bane ★★★☆☆

◯ = 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.

+HP/-Def

The best IVs for Xane are +HP and -Def. His weapon skill, Jokers Wild allows him to copy every other stat so Atk/Spd/Res/Def do not matter that much. This increases his survivability. His Def is of less importance if Jokers Wild is not in play, so it is safe to take as a bane.

+HP for a +10 Merge

We recommend a +HP IV when merging Xane to 10. This is for the same reasons as above. At max merges he will reach 59 HP if you include Jokers Wild's HP boost. This makes him very tanky especially when the effects of his weapon skill is utilized properly.

If you do not plan to make use of Jokers Wild's effects, you should go for a +Atk or +Spd IV instead.

Attuned Skill Icon: -

How to Use, Explanation

This build uses Laguz Friend 4 and Firestorm Boost 3 to improve bulk, and grant missing effects such as Tempo and Null Follow-Up with the other skill slots. Since Xane copies ally's stats, adding in-combat effects is the way to go to improve Xane's combat.

Xane Best Weapon Refine

Effect of Xane's Refined Weapon

Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type)
SP: 400
Might: 14 Range: 2 HP:
Grants HP+5.
Unit can counterattack regardless of foe's range.
If unit is within 3 spaces of an ally, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5, grants bonus to unit's Atk/Spd/Def/Res = highest respective stat from among allies within 3 spaces - unit's stat values (calculates each stat bonus independently at start of combat; if unit's stat is highest, unit's stat will decrease), and deals damage = 20% of unit's Spd during combat (excluding area-of-effect Specials).
At start of player phase or enemy phase, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+6, 【Hexblade】, and 【Null Panic】 to allies within 3 spaces of unit for 1 turn.
If unit is within 3 spaces of an ally, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5 and reduces damage from foe's first attack by 20% of the greater of unit's Def or Res 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, if foe's attack can trigger foe's Special and unit's Res ≥ foe's Res+5, inflicts Special cooldown count+1 on foe before foe's first attack during combat (cannot exceed the foe's maximum Special cooldown).
Arena Medal:500 Divine Dew:200

We recommend the Special Effect Refine for Jokers Wild

Refined Jokers Wild copies the highest Atk/Spd/Def/Res (each stat copied individually) among allies in 3 spaces, making Xane have the highest base stats in combat among all your allies.

At the start of both phases, refined Jokers Wild grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+6, 【Hexblade】, and 【Null Panic】 to allies within 3 spaces of Xane.

Refined Jokers Wild also grants Xane HP+5, a Close Counter effect, Atk/Spd/Def/Res+10 in combat, true damage equal to 20% of Xane's Spd, true damage reduction on foe's first Atk equal to the greater of Xane's Def/Res, and inflicts a Scowl effect onto Xane's foe.

This weapon refine improves upon Xane's unique niche and boosts both offense and defense.

Xane is a ranged physical attacker (range = 2). 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.

Xane Strengths

Adopt your allies' stats with Jokers Wild!

Jokers Wild possesses one of the most interesting weapon effect in the game. It makes Xane's Atk/Spd/Def/Res equal to the highest individual stat among all allies within 2 spaces of him. Each stat is calculated independently so you can get a defensive unit like Gatrie and an offensive unit like Cordelia and put them within 2 spaces of Xane. If done so, Xane adopts Gatrie's monstrous defensive stats and Cordelia's high offensive stats.

The only drawback to this is that a stat will go down if said stat on Xane is higher than any of the units' same stat within 2 spaces. Plan accordingly and turn Xane into an absolute beast of a unit!

When refined, Jokers Wild copies the highest Atk/Spd/Def/Res (each stat copied individually) among allies in 3 spaces instead of 2, extending the range of its copy abilities.

At the start of both phases, refined Jokers Wild grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+6, 【Hexblade】, and 【Null Panic】 to allies within 3 spaces of Xane.

Refined Jokers Wild also grants Xane HP+5, a Close Counter effect, Atk/Spd/Def/Res+10 in combat, true damage equal to 20% of Xane's Spd, true damage reduction on foe's first Atk equal to the greater of Xane's Def/Res, and inflicts a Scowl effect onto Xane's foe.

This weapon refine improves upon Xane's unique niche and boosts both offense and defense, ensuring that Xane enters combat with the best stats possible.

Xane Weaknesses

Reliant on allies' stats

As disucssed, Xane's main strength lies in Jokers Wild being able to copy allies' stats. Xane's stats are nothing special. In fact, the balance in his stats makes it hard for him to find a specific niche. Please be mindful when using Xane as his gimmicks are effective, but they require lots of planning and strategy to be effective.

Weak against Raven tomes

Because Xane is a colorless unit, he is at a weapon-triangle disadvantage when up against Raven tome users. Watch out for Cecilia as she carries one of the most powerful Raven tomes in Tome of Order.

He is 9.0 the refine is crazy, CC and copies stats better than how he did last time. There are now better skills to put on him.

1 Joyeuseover 4 years

Xane at 8.0?? Give the guy some reconsideration because all he needs is a truck of damage behind him and a truck of defense close with CC and null follow-up and he is arguably the strongest unit in the game
