- After far too much wait, Fallen Gustav has finally entered Feh as an exceptional Axe Cavalier with a great statline and personal weapon. Headsman Glitnir accelerates Gustav’s special cooldown while penalizing the foes during his attacks in combat, grants him automatic follow-up attacks if the foe can counter or the foe initiates, and on top of that it inflicts a hefty penalty to the foe’s Attack, Defense, and Speed.
- Gustav happens to start with most of the skills he needs: Atk/Def Catch, A/D Near Trace, and Atk Smoke 4 are all in his base kit. However, for his A slot, one can also opt for Sturdy Surge to give Gustav some self sustain, however Sturdy Surge is fairly rare as it is only available via Hatari Nailah and Groom Roy at the time of writing. Sturdy Surge is also ineffective with Galeforce, requiring him to run a damage special in order to benefit from the healing effect.
- Headsman Glitnir makes Gustav a great Galeforcer, as he’ll always be able to trigger it in two hits reliably due to not having his cooldown reduction tied to Heavy Blade.
- A/D Near Trace gives Gustav excellent hit and run capabilities thanks to the Canto it provides.
- Gustav’s sacred seal should be used to give him even more Attack and Defense on Player Phase: For this purpose seals such as Atk/Def Solo and Sturdy Blow are good options.
Strengths
Headsman Glitnir
Headsman Glitnir is as strong as many exclusive weapons are in Feh’s modern era: Inbuilt Cooldown acceleration and Cooldown penalization for the foe, a hefty stat penalty on foes, and Automatic follow-up attacks since we can’t have a modern slow Fire Emblem Heroes unit without those. These effects make Gustav a powerhouse when coupled with his great statline.
Statline
Gustav boasts decent stats all around aside from Speed. Of particular note is his incredible Attack and Defense stats of 41 and 38 base respectively, the former of which can also be improved further with a superasset.
Weaknesses
Effective Weaponry
Gustav’s Defense stat means he’ll usually be able to survive some hits from physical effective weaponry, but these weapons will typically still be able to take a decent chunk of his health in the process. The main form of effective weaponry Gustav has to watch out for is magic based from the likes of Micaiah due to his only average base 30 Resistance, resulting in an easy KO should they initiate.
Terrible Speed
Gustav’s poor Speed leaves him reliant on his weapon’s effects to score follow-up attacks, leaving him vulnerable to foes who possess Null Follow-Up as they will be able to sharply reduce Gustav’s damage output by cutting him off from his automatic follow-ups. Foes with Speed based damage reduction will also be able to cause issues for Gustav, as his terrible Speed essentially guarantees they’ll be able to gain the full effect of their damage reduction skills against him.
