Strategy & Builds

Despite her physical appearance, Niime’s power is not to be scoffed at—she is one of the strongest mages in her original game, and that shows in Fire Emblem Heroes with an incredibly high Atk stat. Her main weapon, Hvítrvulture+, can absolutely wreck any foe with low Res while keeping Niime safe with its stat penalties. It’s also colorless, which means she has no obvious weaknesses.

Niime performs the best on her own, as this allows both Hvítrvulture+ and her passive bonuses to activate and synergize with each other. The Atk and Res penalties from both sources causes just about any enemy to be obliterated by Niime’s magic!

Because her skill set synergizes so well with itself, many players choose to not build Niime differently. You can swap her passives around if you so wish, but Niime works very well right out of the box.

The only obvious weakness she has is her low HP and Def. She can tank against mages very well thanks to her naturally high Res, but if she’s up against a physical attacker, she might be in trouble. Even if her weapon and passive bonuses activate and decrease the opponent’s Atk, they may still inflict some serious damage.
