Show Explanation/Analysis

Preferred IV: +ATK or +SPD

Since the focus of Tine’s weapon is offense-oriented, an asset to Attack or Speed best compliments this set.

Weapon: Thunderer Tome

Assist: Positional Assist

Special: Draconic Aura / Dragon Fang / Blazing Wind

Among the variety of offensive Specials to choose from, those that scale extra damage from the unit’s Atk stat will provide the biggest boost for Tine.
- The choice between Draconic Aura and Dragon Fang can be dependent on what other skills are run in tandem in order to have the most consistent rate of activation with the weapon.
AOE Specials such as Blazing Wind are incredibly powerful and simple to charge with the effect of Thunderer’s Tome.
- The secondary effect of the weapon (Ignoring Damage Reduction and dealing an additional 7 damage upon Special activation) does not apply to AOE Specials. However, that doesn’t take away too much from the incredible power of these Specials when paired with Tine’s exceptional Atk and ease of charging.

Passive A: Atk/Spd Boosting A Skills / Close Salvo / Fury

To supplement this purely offensive approach, any skill that greatly boosts Tine’s offensive stats including but not limited to Atk/Spd Ideal, Push, Solo, or Swift Sparrow makes for a great choice of A skill.
- For an AOE Special build, Life and Death is the ideal choice, as it boosts the visible Atk/Spd that increases the effectiveness of the Special.
Tine’s native Fury skill also makes for a suitable option by granting a solid visible stat boost as well as having a direct synergy with her weapon.

Passive B: Null Follow-Up / Windsweep / Lull Spd/Res / Special Spiral / Vantage

Null Follow-Up is a coveted anti-meta skill that disables any foe's skills that guarantee their follow-up attack or prevent yours.
Lull skills such as Lull Spd/Res also make for a solid B slot option by neutralizing buffs on the foe’s target stats as well as inflicting an in-combat debuff.
Windsweep allows Tine to prevent the foe’s counterattack if they have less Speed at the expense of her ability to make a follow-up attack. However, this won’t be too much of a problem so long as she can consistently activate her Special.
Special Spiral allows Tine to activate her Special at a constant rate by granting cooldown -2 every time her Special activates following the first instance.

Passive C: Time’s Pulse / Blue Feud / Flexible

Time’s Pulse stacks with Tine’s weapon for an instant -2 Special cooldown at the start of the turn.
The C slot can otherwise be replaced as needed to suit the team.

Sacred Seal: Atk/Spd Boosting Seals

Strengths

Thunderer Tome

Fire Emblem Heroes doesn’t always do a great job portraying heroes the way they were in the game they came from but this weapon is perfect. Thunderer’s tome emulates the effect of Wrath by granting -1 cooldown and +7 damage on Special when missing any HP at the start of turn 4 (with the first three turns having this effect for free) with a significant Atk/Spd boost and the ability to ignore damage reduction skills as a bonus on top.

Incredible Offensive Stats

A nice even 42 Atk/Spd is more than enough to have a strong offensive presence.

Infantry

The benefit of being infantry comes with access to exceptional exclusive skills for both support and combat.

Weaknesses

Low Bulk

With both Def and Res sitting at values of under 30, you would be advised against using Tine to tank more than a couple hits.
