Minerva | Final Evaluation:
Minerva is a strong Green Axe unit. Her movement speed of Flying makes her the second choice if you don’t have Hector (Camilla is also good after Hector). She can easily move around the terrain but weak against Archers. With that, you can inherit the Iote’s Shield from Michalis. Her Life and Death 3 Passive Skill is OP. It is also included as one of the top Passive Skills you should inherit. The Life and Death 3 can grant her ATK/SPD+5 and inflicts her foe DEF/RES-5.
Life and Death 3 is unlockable at 5★ and costs 200 SP.
