Boons

+SPD: Increasing Laevatein’s Speed is ideal for an offensive support set to allow her to double more opponents.
+ATK: Not quite as good as +SPD for an offensive support set, but can be good for a full support set due to increasing the amount that Laevatein can heal.

Banes

-HP/-DEF/-RES: Laevatein’s choice of bane doesn’t really make much difference due to her having access to Dazzling Staff as a weapon refine.

Show Explanation/Analysis

Preferred IV: +SPD / -HP or -DEF or -RES
Weapon: Dazzling Pain+ / Dazzling Gravity+ / Dazzling Kumade+
Assist: Recover+ / Rehabilitate+
Special: Miracle / Earthfire Balm+
Passive A: Atk/Spd Solo / Atk/Spd Bond / Speed +3
Passive B: Wrathful Staff
Passive C: Savage Blow / Hone Cavalry / Even Def Wave / Flexible
Sacred Seal: Savage Blow / Atk/Spd Bond / Speed +3

This is a typical offensive support build for healers that takes advantage of their ability to simultaneously utilize Dazzling and Wrathful Staff to both keep them safe while attacking as well as increase their damage output. As a cavalry healer, Laevatein excels with this set due to her superior mobility.

Laevatein has a variety of weapons she can choose from: Pain will allow her to devastate enemy teams with heavy chip damage, particularly if she combines it with Savage Blow as both her C skill and Sacred Seal. Alternatively, Gravity provides a powerful mobility debuff that synergizes well with the high mobility of cavalry units to emphasize their advantage. Finally, Laevatein’s base weapon, Kumade, works just fine on a budget. Recover is generally a bit better for Laevatein due to her high Attack stat, but her base Rehabilitate will also work just fine as well.

Atk/Spd Solo is easily Laevatein’s best choice of A skill, due to providing a strong amount of offensive stats with a very easy to meet condition; as a cavalry unit, Laevatein can easily maneuver to avoid being adjacent to her allies when attacking. Alternatively, Atk/Spd Bond can also work although its condition is a bit harder to meet for a ranged cavalry unit. However, it can stack beautifully with the Atk/Spd Bond Sacred Seal, giving Laevatein a massive +10 boost to her Attack and Speed when attacking. Finally, on a budget Laevatein can settle for just Speed +3.

Passive A: Attack +3 / Speed +3
Passive B: Wings of Mercy / Wrathful Staff / Chill Def / Chill Res
Passive C: Hone Cavalry / Even Def Wave / Flexible
Sacred Seal: Live to Serve / Attack +3

This build focuses entirely on Laevatein’s support characteristics as a healer. As a full support build, the chosen IVs don’t matter; however, +ATK is generally ideal due to simultaneously increasing Laevatein’s damage and healing output.

The choice of weapon is entirely up to player preference; Flash applies an incredibly potent debuff that can heavily swing combat into Laevatein’s team’s favor. Alternatively, her base Kumade applies a strong and consistent debuff, though targeting the enemy with the highest Defense means that it is very difficult to control who it targets. Any other weapon can also work based on preference; regardless of choice, it’s important to take the Dazzling Staff refine to ensure that Laevatein can safely attack to apply any debuffs.

Wings of Mercy is an exceptionally potent support skill for healers as it allows them to immediately move next to any ally that needs healing and improves upon Laevatein’s already strong mobility. Alternative options include her base Wrathful Staff to allow for more damage output, or either Chill Def or Chill Res to stack with her base Kumade for even more debuffing capability.

Introduction

As a cavalry unit, Laevatein enjoys superior mobility compared to the majority of the other healers. She also has access to powerful cavalry buffs, which work well with her relatively strong offenses. With weapon refinery, Laevatein can run the powerful Dazzling/Wrathful Staff combination that effectively turns her into a ranged and magical Firesweep users, except that she can still counterattack when attacked.

While healers have very poor skill availability, particularly in terms of lacking offensive Specials, they no longer lack a powerful A skill as they can utilize Atk/Spd Solo. As a cavalry unit, Laevatein additionally needs to contend with having a weakness to anti-cavalry weaponry as well as having her strong mobility hampered by obstructions, forests, and trenches.

Ultimately, as a cavalry healer, Laevatein will excel due to her strong mobility as well as access to the potent Dazzling/Wrathful Staff combo.
