Brave Dimitri Best IVs
Recommended IVs
| Stat | Superboon/Superbane | IV Recommendation |
|---|---|---|
| HP (19) |  | ★★★☆☆ |
| Atk (26) |  | ★★★★☆ |
| Spd (8) |  | ★★★☆☆ |
| Def (10) | | ★★★★★ |
| Res (6) | | ★★★☆☆ |
◯ = Stat gains +4 with a superboon, ✕= Stat goes down by -4 with a superbane, - = No assets or flaws
| See the IV Checker for All Units | Trait Fruits—How to Change IVs |
When using an Ascendant Floret, we recommend getting the next superboon if it fits the hero. If not, consider what stat your hero needs most.
+Def/-Res
The best IVs for Brave Dimitri are +Def and -Res. A +Def boon allows him to survive blows even from powerful green units. Tanking attacks from green units means that Dimitri can deal with a ton of units in the game. Blue Lion Rule also relies on Def to activate so you should increase Dimitri's Def as much as possible.
His Res is below average and he will be reducing damage through refined Moon Gradivus and Blue Lion Rule either way. Thus, it is a safe bane to take.
+Spd for a +10 Merge
We recommend a +Spd IV when merging Brave Dimitri to 10. At +10 Merges, Dimitri's Def will reach such high levels that pushing it up higher is a waste, so it is best to take a Spd IV instead as it will boost Dimitri's durability through making him less susceptible to follow-up attacks.

This is a premium build aiming to stack defensive stats to make Brave Dimitri as tanky as possible. Laguz Friend 4 is used over Blue Lion Rule in order to be able to equip Guard Echo.

How to Use, Explanation
This premium build stacks Spd to ensure Brave Dimitri does not receive follow-up attacks. Spd Smoke 4 adds an additional layer of damage reduction while Godlike Reflexes is a defensive Special that works on both melee and ranged attacks. This build works better with external Pulse support from Askr or users of Infantry Pulse or similar skills. Spd/Def Finish 4 would be the ideal A skill once it's released.

Brave Dimitri Best Weapon Refine
Effect of Brave Dimitri's Refined Weapon
| Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type) | |
|---|---|
Moon Gradivus | SP: 400 |
| Might: 16 Range: 1 HP: 3 Unit can counterattack regardless of foe's range. Grants Special cooldown charge +1 per foe's attack during combat. (Only highest value applied. Does not stack. Special cooldown charge granted even if foe's attack deals 0 damage.) If unit is within 3 spaces of an ally, grants Spd/Def/Res+5 to unit during combat, deals damage = 20% of unit's Def, reduces damage from foe's attacks by 20% of unit's Def (excluding area-of-effect Specials), inflicts Def-5 on foe during combat, and neutralizes foe's bonuses to Atk/Def (from skills like Fortify, Rally, etc.).
| |
：500 
：200We heavily recommend the Special Effect Refine for Moon Gradivus
Refined Moon Gradivus gives Spd/Def/Res buffs, true damage and true damage reduction equal to 20% of Brave Dimitri's Def, a Def-5 penalty onto the foe, and bonus neutralization.
These effects make Brave Dimitri a very sturdy tank on par with the strongest physical walls in the game. True damage reduction is a very powerful effect also found on Askr and Spring Maria; this effect is unmatched in its ability to ensure Brave Dimitri's survival.
This refine takes Brave Dimitri from obscurity and makes him a top tier unit. Refine his Moon Gradivus, you won't regret it.

Brave Dimitri Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses
Brave Dimitri Roles
| Dimitri - King of Faerghus Roles | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Close-Physical | Ranged-Physical | Close-Magic | Ranged-Magic |
| Physical Wall | Magic Wall | Effective Weapon | Movement Assist |
| Exclusive Skill | All-Range Counter | Recovery | Refresher |
| Legendary | Mythic | Duo / Harmonized | Resplendent |
Brave Dimitri is a close physical attacker (range = 1). Therefore, when not accounting for the Weapon Triangle, the amount of damage he deals will be equivalent to his Atk minus the foe's Def stat.
Brave Dimitri Strengths
Weapon skill synergizes well with Noontime
Moon Gradivus grants special cooldown charge +1 per foe's attack during combat. It has Distant Counter built-in which speeds up special activation as well because it increases the number of attacks Brave Dimitri throws. Since Noontime is already equipped with a very low special cooldown, Dimitri will be throwing heals left and right! Both these skills synergize to make him a great dual-phase unit that has great sustain, durability and offenses.
Blue Lion Rule, his B skill guarantees him follow-up attacks which further helps this Moon Gradivus-Noontime synergy! It is discussed below.
Neutralizes debuffs to Atk/Def and grants buffs to it
If Dimitri is within 2 spaces of an ally, Atk/Def Unity grants him +5 Atk/Def and converts penalties on Atk/Def and turns them into bonuses. It is a pretty simple trigger condition and it is almost impossible to have trouble keeping it online.
This makes Brave Dimitri an effective unit in Aether Raids because debuffs are very common in that game mode. The more debuffs Dimitri gets, the stronger and bulkier he becomes.
Blue Lion Rule makes Def a more effective stat
Brave Dimitri's B skill, Blue Lion Rule reduces the damage Dimitri takes if his Def is greater than foe's. This synergizes well with Atk/Def Unity as it improves his Def even more. It also guarantees him follow-up attacks in the enemy phase if his Def is greater than his foe's.
Most of the time, Dimitri will have greater Def than most magic attackers that will attack him so having a high Def helps his survivability against magic units as well.
Brave Dimitri Weaknesses
Low Res
Brave Dimitri's Res only sits at 18 at Lv.40. This makes it easy for magic users to take him out. Be mindful of Dimitri's positioning in relation to magical units that can easily take him out.
Brave Dimitri Team and Counters
Teammates for Brave Dimitri
| Ayra | Legendary Eliwood | Mirabilis | Legendary Azura |
| Peony | Brave Dimitri | New Year Peony | Eir |
Flexible Unit That Can Fit in Any Team
Brave Dimitri can fit in a wide variety of teams as he can mostly take care of himself.
He can be paired with those that can boost his firepower even more, like Legendary Eliwood's Bonus Doubler effect on his Ardent Durandal or any of the dancers above.
Brave Dimitri Counters
| Brave Hector | Cecilia | Brave Ike | Legendary Celica |
| Legendary Edelgard | Brave Edelgard | Shamir | Ninja Hana |
Despite being an extremely powerful unit, Brave Dimitri does face difficulty against these certain units.
He will struggle against tanky green units like Brave Ike or either Brave or Legendary Edelgard as he is already at a weapon triangle-disadvantage against them.
Cecilia with a Triangle Adept build should prove effective against him, while Legendary Celica can defeat him through pure firepower.
Do note, however, that their effectiveness will vary from how you build them, if they're merged up, as well as how invested the opponent's Brave Dimitri is.
