Best Laevatain Weapons
- Forgeborn Scathe
- Umbral Torch
- White Night Nova
- Fortmaker
Forgeborn Scathe is the clear best weapon for Laevatain. It increases her Basic Attack damage after using Ultimate and hugely increases Heat damage for the equipper.
Alternatively, both Umbral Torch and White Night Nova are good options that you can use. For initial gameplay, you can use Fortmaker as a placeholder until you get the other options.
Best Laevatain Gears
| Type | Items |
|---|---|
| Gear Set | Hot Work |
| Armor | Tide Fall Light Armor |
| Gloves | Hot Work Gauntlets |
| Kit 1 | Hot Work Pyrometer |
| Kit 2 | Hot Work Pyrometer |
Laevatain is a Heat DPS unit and banks on Heat Infliction. So, Hot Work is obviously going to be her first and only choice for Gear Set. Use Hot Work Gauntlets for Gloves, Hot Work Pyrometer for Kit 1 and Kit 2, and Tide Fall Light Armor as the fourth remaining piece.

Laevatain requires a ton of Heat inflictions on enemies to make her skills work efficiently. So, both Akekuri and Wulfgard are amazing supports for her. For the fourth spot, Ardelia is a clear choice due to her amazing general supportive capabilities.
In some cases, you can also use Antal over Wulfgard if you have him. Antal also applies Heat inflictions, while also applying Electrification for increased damage.
