☆3/☆4 Ifrit
Ifrit is has an extremely narrow and situational gimmick that he can’t access from the get go due to his default, which contradicts his main purpose to reach his Charge quick. His best quality is his LB3.
☆4 Make Sail Ifrit
Ifrit (Make Sail) comes in with amazing aspects that will make him a solid staple for a mixed support, being LB1 applying Concentration on his allies, a fantastic offensive+proc rate increasing buff that was once mostly obtained through Charge skills, and Fervor being a great offensive+CP buff that adds up very nicely for Concentration increased damage bit. He may have a poor man’s (pun unintended) Seth LB3 on his LB2 since the ailment he applies is useless, but it combined with 2 offensive buffs makes for a total of 3 buffs with one of them being defensive, making him a fantastic mixed buffbot altogether. Past that he starts falling flat a little since Default locks him out of using his Charge for a bit (at least being Fear-immune allows him to keep moving freely for his skills) which he shares with the original at a much less crippling pace and his Charge isn’t too worthy of mention past possible good damage out of Fervor (which is still a vast improvement from his original Charge). If you wish an unit that provides two rare, amazing offensive buffs as well as fair protection to his mates, then he’s your man for the job.
Highlights

☆3/☆4 Ifrit
Class: Healer
Gameplay role:
Pros
+ Great LB3 as 4☆ thanks to being moderately exploited by Ranged range.
+ Self-Cleanse from LB1, shrugging himself off of most ailments with relative ease.
Cons
- Default is useless.
- The whole point of his skillset is to pump his CP for a Charge that, while it has a currently unique effect, doesn’t do anything remarkable.
☆4 Make Sail Ifrit
Class: Mixed support
Gameplay role:
Pros
+ Contrary to his original version, his Default only lasts for its duration and then wears off for the rest of the fight (unless Cleansed by an outer source earlier).
+ Along with his bandmates, owns an amazing LB1, Concentration to adjacent allies somewhat on demand is fantastic in a lot of ways.
+ LB2 Protection can serve fairly well to help allies and himself take a hit in a pinch.
+ LB3 Fervor to adjacent allies, paired with LB1 offers two very strong rare buffs that allow his allies to always strongly benefit from it offensively, also helped by the fact Fear won’t stop his movement.
Cons
- Being Strike, he’s mostly relevant as a buffbot due to Strike range difficulties, he can’t approach LB3 as well as his allies past his Charge either.
- LB2’s ailment is almost useless on enemies since they hardly ever get to use their Charge against you.
- LB3 has a very weird side-effect of applying Burn on his allies on KO, an unfavorable one given Burn can passively eat up their HP.
- While he no longer shoots himself in the foot with his self-ailment, his Charge isn’t particularly great past its range and possible damage under LB3.
Gameplay Role
Offensive support
Band Ifrit is one of the rarest caracter who can give two offensive to adjacent ally by moving. The first is concentration who has 60% to give this buff to adjacent allies and the second is fevor who has 64% to give this buff to adjacent allies and self. To give an idea there are 38,4% that Ifrit give two buff, 47,2% that he give only one buff and 14,4% that he give nothing. Futhermore, if you max skill seed him, there are 51,8% that he give two buff, 40,4% that he give one buff and 7,8% that he give nothing. This has as consequence that he one of the caracters who enjoy the most the skill seed. The real downside of band Ifrit role is that you need to move constantly just to give at least one buff and his two buff have a duration of two turn.
Stats and Seed Usage
Unit | (Effective) HP | Base ATK | ATK per square | CS ATK per square (SALV1) | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Unseeded | Seeded | Unseeded | Seeded | Unseeded | Seeded | Unseeded | Seeded | |
5907 | 7841 | 4010 | 5640 | 4010 | 5640 | 2245 | 3159 | |
6540 | 8434 | 4744 | 6415 | 2135 | 2887 | 5313 | 7184 | |
7422 | 9433 | 4062 | 5626 | 4062 | 5626 | 1219 | 1688 |
Because he is a blow unit, you don't need at all to invest on ATK seed and therefore by consequence in LV seed. Invest in HP seed can be a good seems in need to survive to avoid is last skill activation where he can burn adjacent allies and also because of his defensive support. Finally use skill seed is a good choice since is dramatically increase is chance to give atleast one buff.
