One of the Robin Hoods who took up the mantle of this roguish character joins Chaldea with his powerful single target Noble Phantasm. As a 3-Star Servant, Robin is one of the more accessible single target nukers in the game. His Arts-type NP in particular can deal as much as 3750% damage at NP5. In order to unleash such a powerful NP Robin requires his opponent to be afflicted by poison, which his first skill conveniently applies to all enemies. Additionally, he also can improve his NP generation with his second skill, allowing him to fire it much quicker. As such, Robin is one of the staples for Arts-based teams.

However, outside of Arts teams, Robin performs suboptimally. He loses out on the NP gain from Arts chains, though he can still deal high damage. While Robin can compete with higher rarity Servants in Arts-based damage output, he does suffer from the reduced HP of a 3-Star Servant. This weakness is partially mitigated by his attack debuff and dodge from his Rank Up quest, but his low basic attack damage and durability prior to Rank Up should be noted. Nevertheless, given his amazing synergy with Arts teams, Robin Hood’s pros outweigh his cons and should definitely be raised.

🟢 Strengths

Powerful Single Target Noble Phantasm

Robin Hood boasts one of the more powerful ST NPs in the game relative to his niche and his rarity. His NP, Yew Bow, can deal up to 3750% damage at NP5 if his opponent is poisoned, which his first skill can do. Thus, Robin can burst down his opponents easily.

Good NP Gain

Given his second skill which increases his NP generation stats, as well as the fact that he has two Arts cards, Robin can easily charge up his NP through attacks and Arts chains. Since he is usually run in Arts teams, the constant Arts cards also can aid in charging his NP even faster.

Good Survivability

Due to his lower rarity and lower level cap, Robin lacks the HP that higher rarity Servants have. However, he has high HP for a three-star Servant as well as skills (ATK down with his first skill, and a dodge with his third) to survive for longer.

🔴 Weaknesses

Suboptimal Performance Outside of Arts Teams

Robin Hood performs best when placed in a team which specializes in Arts. With other Servants like Tamamo or Mozart supporting him, he can charge his NP faster and deal more damage with it. However, outside of that synergy, Robin is unable to make his niche perform at the highest level.

Poison is Sometimes Negated

Robin Hood’s Sabotage skill applies the Poison debuff to his enemies, yet it can sometimes be negated by Debuff Resistance or Debuff Immunity. As a poison debuff is required to maximize Robin Hood's NP damage, enemies that resist poison neuter his damage significantly.

Below Average Damage Outside of NP

Robin Hood suffers from his below average attack stat, a 0.95x damage multiplier inherit to the Archer class, and a QQAAB card kit. All these factors contribute to weaker basic attacks. Though as an Archer his crits do tend to hit harder, Robin’s main damage is still his NP.

Level Up Skill Recommendations

HighSkillIcon
Sabotage A
Decrease ATK for all enemies (3 turns). Inflict Poison on all enemies (5 turns, 500 damage per turn).
LowSkillIcon
Golden Rule E
Increase own NP Gain (3 turns).
MedSkillIcon
May King B
Apply Sure Hit to self (1 turn). Apply Evade to self (1 turn). Gain Critical Stars.

Sabotage is definitely the top skill to level. With its cooldown of 5 turns at level 10, Robin is able to have a 100% up-time of his poison (which means his NP always is able to get the bonus damage it needs). Not to mention the AoE 15% damage reduction he applies to his enemies is also amazing.

Golden Rule should be levelled last as while it isn’t a bad skill, Robin’s other skills are just much better. The bonus NP generation is amazing since he wants to fire his NP as much as possible, but isn’t as important as the poison and Evasion.  Additionally, Arts chain bonuses, where a good deal of his NP gauge comes from, don't benefit from Golden Rule.

May King should be prioritized second as it helps Robin with one of his major flaws, his survivability. The critical stars and the evasion pierce are just bonuses to its utility.

🖼️ Craft Essence Recommendations

  • Black Grail / Holy Night Supper / Heaven’s Feel: Given that Robin’s ST NP is his main niche, giving him CEs which help his NP deal more damage is beneficial.
  • Formal Craft / Projection: As a mainly Arts card user, these CEs not only help Robin stack even more damage for his already powerful NP, but also help him charge up his NP faster and increase the damage on his basic Arts cards.
  • Golden Sumo: Boulder Tournament: A potent alternative to NP Damage, especially in Arts composition with few Attack buffs. 
  • Kaleidoscope / The Imaginary Element: With his high damage NP, starting with your NP fully charged (or almost fully charged) and being able to instantaneously fire it, can be useful in certain situations like boss fights.
  • Little Halloween Devil: Though it doesn’t increase his NP damage, at the very least Robin Hood can charge his NP much faster using the bonus NP generation given by this CE.

Character Info

A faceless, nameless, chivalrous thief. As he says himself, this young man is only one of the many "someones" that fit under the description of Robin Hood. The original legend is of the chivalrous thief hiding in Sherwood Forest. Originally Robin Hood stood against the tyrant John Lackland, but it is said he bled to death in the Kirkless Monastery due to a conspiracy involving the abbess.

Bond Level 1

Height/Weight: 175cm, 65kg Origin: History Region: England, Sherwood Alignment: Neutral-Good Gender: Male "It's not like me to be a Heroic Spirit, but..."

Bond Level 2

Doesn't care about his methods of winning. Specializes in ambushes, sneak attacks, and poison arrows. Frivolous, cynical, and snarky, but has a good heart. Somewhat timid, he acts insincere to hide the fact that he is naive yet just. He is a lot like Emiya, which is why they dislike each other.

Bond Level 3

Sabotage: A The talent to shave off enemy forces before battle while they are preparing. Master of traps. Rank A means that roughly 60% of forces can be taken out before the enemies advance into combat. In group combat, losing 60% of your forces is considered catastrophic.

Bond Level 4

[Yew Bow] Rank: D NP Type: Anti-Personnel Bow of Prayer. A bow created from a yew tree in the forest that was his home territory. Yew is one of the sacred trees in Celtic and Norse cultures. The act of creating a yew bow equates to a ritual where one becomes "one with the forest."

Bond Level 5

This Heroic Spirit is adept at assassinations and sabotage, and is well-versed in natural poisons as well. Since Yew is said to be a tree that leads to the underworld, the Yew Bow has the power to instantly amplify all toxins (such as poisons and illness) that the target carries. If the target has been poisoned, it can detonate the poison like gunpowder.

Clear "Hunter of the Forest"

His point of view is rather twisted, but he likes humans in general. If there is a group having fun, he will find a way to join them as someone who isn't really a friend, but not really a stranger. He has the tendency to be ashamed of things like his fighting style and way of life. The one thing he will never do is to laugh at someone else's efforts and endeavors.

Well, being pampered isn't so bad. I'm counting on you!

Now then. Things are finally starting to get fun, yes? Let's see how far we can get!

Bond Level 3
Well then, I've nearly run out of tricks. There's no better time than the present to cut me loose, Master. All downhill from here.
Bond Level 4
Would you look at that. Me, high level and useful in battle. You might be worse at cutting your losses than me, Master.
Bond Level 5

Conversation 3
You command from the back, I support from the back, and other brutes stands and fights at the front. Sounds perfect!

Hmph. Look at this fool over here. A bowman on the front lines? Hey, you in the red! You call that protecting our Master?
Conversation 6 (BB)
Whoa, BB's here... That girl's bad news on a nuclear scale. She's based on a very normal kind of person, though, so the sort of trouble she'll cause isn't going to be on a grand scale.
Conversation 7 (Passionlip)
Uh, I've done no such thing! Even if she was bad or annoying, there's no way I would smack a lady's butt... I don't know what you're talking about, haha! ...So that's Lip. Looks like she's matured a bit. Guess I should congratulate her on that.
Conversation 8 (Meltryllis)
Even Meltryllis is here? What the heck's wrong with your party!? Don't you know how they say that every rose has its you-know-what? BB and Lip at least still have a modicum of cuteness, but that woman's seriously dangerous if you get on her bad side. Just be careful.
Conversation 9 (Billy the Kid)
Well, I'm taking my leave. It's nothing. I'm meeting up with Billy at the cafeteria. We cheap Archers are gonna drown our sorrows together. I've racked up a bit of a losing streak against him in our card game, so I need to win some back today!

Dislikes
What don't I like? Chivalry, I'd say. Far too much of a burden, that.
About the Holy Grail
If I could ask the Holy Grail for something... I'd probably ask for a piece of the spill. But that won't really happen now, will it?
During an Event
I must say, I have a bad feeling about this...
