10 By Minori#44541 7 years ago ( 7.2.1 ) So Skuld has the highest weighted stat total of the three (800 vs ~750), as well as a synergistic color/type combination of blue/green/physical/god (Muse, Hrungnir, U&Y, Karin, Lakshmi). She has the best leader skill in terms of numbers as well as in actual usefulness, since she and other physical types already have high HP and boosting RCV is generally stronger than boosting HP (case in point: Ronia). She is also the only one whose active matches with her primary color Chinese god; Verdandi and Urd work for Leilan and Haku respectively, but their main colors don't match. ...And she even gets an extra awakening. 3 Best Sonia = Red Best Odin = Green Best Norn = Blue. Fits Perfectly. 2 dragoonj#6029 7 years ago ( 7.2.1 ) Good eye! I didn't notice at first but Skuld is 6-7 star, whereas Urd and Verdandi are 5-6 star. 2 HP/10 + ATK/5 + RCV/3 = weighted stat. It is just a relatively easy way to compare cards. Some however do not fit this system well, such as Satan. 1 Get out of here lol Best sonia is blue Best odin is blue Best norn is debatable 1 flyboi207#67062 6 years ago ( 7.3.0 ) I'm sorry but I am a bit confused, what does it mean to have a high weighted stat value and why is that valuable? 1 Haven't you seen the new UEvo for Blue Odin? That sh!t is OP. 0 Chrispy!PF#49095 6 years ago ( 7.3.0 ) This rarity/awakenings is similar to what they do with the Odins/Sonias. 3 By uncleaner#66622 6 years ago ( 7.3.0 ) Wagon wheels on the dress, waifus sipping Bacardi. Back's so to the future you can call me Marty. 2 By Sangu#61555 7 years ago ( 7.2.3 ) To those who are concerned that Skuld is too strong compared to the other norns... Ronia starts as a 5 star and ends up a 7 star, Gronia and Blonia start as 6 stars and end up as 7 stars. Grodin starts as a 5 star and ends up a 7 star, Rodin and Blodin start as 6 stars and end up as 7 stars. I would not be surprised if both Urd and Verdandi get Uevos real soon, in which case Urd could be the one to look out for. 0 Sacchi#30153 6 years ago ( 7.3.0 ) Using the same logic the 6-star monsters are still better because they can also receive uvos eventually. Just look at what happened to BOdin. 1 By n¡ggerfåg#60434 6 years ago ( 7.5 ) Don't know how this hasn't been mentioned but, SHE DOESN'T HAVE AN FUC-KING LEGS!!!!!1! 0 What I think he means is that her legs look mechanical. They may or may not be boots, but, if they are, then they kinda look like they attack to her legs. 0 In other words, he thinks they are prosthetic like the characters in Star Fox. 1 By Dr. Psaroo#42667 7 years ago ( 7.2.2 ) She gets her own knight (the currently JP-exclusive one unless I see someone in the US prove me wrong), her own archers (U&Y), and even her own dragon! (Starling) Who is she going to war against? Or even better, a TURTLE. This is already 10/10 Plus with all of those enhance orb awokens there's no need for an orb enhancing monster! Last edited by Dr. Psaroo 7 years ago ( 7.2.2 ) 0 Clefspeare#28839 6 years ago ( 7.5.1 ) There is still a need if you are using orb changers or Skuld's active because color changed orbs are not enhanced. 1 By Starspark#59470 6 years ago ( 7.2.3 ) She has gauntlets, greaves and a sword in her art (which her sisters don't have) because in fact she is also a Valkyrie. 1 By Ink#78562 5 years ago ( 8.4.1 ) Best Skuld Team I can come up with off the top of my head... Skuld Awoken Orochi Polaris and Kapibara-san Alrescha Super ult Umisachi Yamasachi Skuld This team if hypermaxed has 29,443 HP; 16212 RCV without enhanced heals; and a very stable 10.89 with a 2x for physical (everyone except alrescha) spike from polaris. Muse works if you don't have polaris but she's better cause she affects orochi. If you need damage reduction, then bring either awoken isis or captain kidd/awilda and sub it in for U&Y. This team has a stat stick with more power than any other pronger in the game (except scheat), orb changing, utility?, 8 orb enhance(which automatically makes a TPA that is fully enhanced do 64% extra damage) ,full board changes, along with a massive HP pool with loads of RCV that can heal half of your full health with THREE heal orbs, yes it's overkill but it works. Stalls for days. Any other suggestions? I'd love to hear them. Also, her art is really cool and I fed her a lot of plus eggs when I was a noob so now I don't have a choice but to let her get some dungeon time. Not that I don't want to... I'm missing a lot of cards from the build, I only have skuld. This is the dream team. 0 By Corey#63534 6 years ago ( 7.2.3 ) Holy Jesus, this godfest treated me real nice. First it brought me to a Beautiful restaurant on the Ocean of Heaven's nicest beach where only the finest Light Zhuge Liang was laid out as an appetizer. After a nice talk of adventures through the legendary mountain path, our meal was served. The magnificence of the Kushinada piled high on the platter was stunning. We talked of the olden days in the Tower of Trials, before the most decadent Red Sonia was presented as our dessert. We parted ways, however, two days later it called me wanting to hook up. It went down on me and gave me the most fantastic Norn of the Future a man could dream of. In just 8 pulls. -3 nathan@N17#37737 6 years ago ( 7.2.3 ) It sounds nice but......light zhuge liang is a dude......and it sounds like you had se× with a dude 0 By Tony#37833 7 years ago ( 7.2.1 ) Wow, Very high hp and rcv for a god/physical. GungHo is really trying to bring in Orb Enhances. 0 By •LXSVD•#56659 7 years ago ( 7.2.1 ) Really want her for my Karin team. Fills the green requirement. 0 By Alesund#36451 7 years ago ( 7.2.1 ) Why does she get one more awakening than Urd and Verdandi? 0 milkyway#44916 6 years ago ( 8.1.1 ) Because her attack is poor compared to the others. They are trying to make up for it. 0 By OmastarBC#39392 7 years ago ( 7.2.3 ) This gal, Hermes, and Hrungnir, with Aquaman or King Bubblie. TOO OP. Her active + Hermes Active + Hrungnir Active = FULL ENHANCED WATER BOARD NUKE. 0 By Freeze#56959 7 years ago ( 7.2.3 ) So, whilst I have the worst luck in the REM, this would be a nice leader since I have Marine Rider and one of my only two good pulls, Umisachi and Yamasachi. Shame she isn't a good sub for a U&Y herself 0 By StaticG#55158 6 years ago ( 7.2.3 ) I've been thinking of a team that would be one of the most time consuming and costly ones I could think of, and I think I've have managed to make it as excessive as possible. Currently this team cannot be made, but I would love it if someone could once they are all released. Leader Norn of the Future, Skuld Subs Apex Blue Flower Dragon, Starling (takes so long to get and even more to max skill) Divine Wardens, Umisachi&Yamasachi 蒼刻の魔導姫, Paulina (no. 1752) Armored Green Ice Knight, Muse Friend Norn of the Future, Skuld Overall when max awoken 5 Skill Boosts 2 Skill Bind Resists 1 Blind Resist 11 (!) Water Orb Enhance 5 Wood Orb Enhance Skuld, Starling, Muse have 1 TPA, U&Y have 2 TPA Starling and U&Y have similar actives with the differences being Starling converts light to water, and gives two more seconds to move orbs. Paulina enhances the board and gives some water if you need to do a TPA Muse gives a 2.5x atk buff to Gods. Only Paulina will not benefit from it (which isn't a huge deal since U&Y will be doing the most damage) The reason there are so many water orb enhance is because I read somewhere in the comments of some gods that orb enhance is getting some sort of buff. If so, awesome. If not this is a TPA team with too many enhances. :D Overall, there is enough orb convert to do lots of pew pew, and Paulina's enhance when you go for the big hit of Skuld and Starling/U&Y. Also, Starling is one helluva beautiful "trophy" dragon that gives plenty and more for a TPA team. http://www.puzzledragonx.com/en/simulator.asp?q=1674.99.1.0.0.0.6..1602.99.1.0.0.0.4..1297.99.1.0.0.0.7..1652.99.1.0.0.0.3..1752.99.1.0.0.0.4..1674.99.1.0.0.0.6 Last edited by StaticG 6 years ago ( 7.2.3 ) 0 I guess B/D Karin can be used. She does have TPA, and Skuld's RCV increase for wood does nothing for Paulina (0 RCV). I just like that Paulina gives more water enhances (it was meant to be excessive), enhances water orbs for when you choose to use a Skuld and maybe Starling/U&Y, and spawns some orbs for lower CD. It is also easier to skill up Paulina because she (and two others) have a descend, unlike Karin. B/G Karin would seem like the more logical choice instead of B/D Karin, but I prefer TPA over 500ish to 1000ish more RCV. http://www.puzzledragonx.com/en/simulator.asp?q=1674.99.1.0.0.0.6..1602.99.1.0.0.0.4..1297.99.1.0.0.0.7..1652.99.1.0.0.0.3..1265.99.1.0.0.0.7..1674.99.1.0.0.0.6 Last edited by StaticG 6 years ago ( 7.2.3 ) 0 James#199 6 years ago ( 8.0.1 ) Once you have enough water enhance to enhance all water orbs, additional water enhance on the team is useless. 0 By (づo.o)づHi#46714 6 years ago ( 7.2.3 ) I had this weird idea of a half and half Skuld team the other day when drinking up a can Arizona... Two Skulds for leaders, which give 9~9.9x attack depending on HP, and x4 recovery: all subs will be water/wood. 1st Sub: Muse, for 2.5x God burst, God/physical type. 2nd Sub: Ult U&Y, for the two prongs and additional enhanced orbs, God/healer type. 3rd Sub: 2nd Ult U&Y, that is, if you have it. Ult Sterling is also a good call, like StaticG mentioned, which is Dragon/god type. Water/wood Karin will do the trick as well, providing hp and attack boost. Water/wood Lakshmi also works should you bet on the bind-recovery. 4th Sub: Suprise! Water/Wood Sun Quan! Although he is not a god, he provides a long stream of awoken skills (including an extend time), and, most importanting, a blood-thirsting active skill. 10x attack is sometimes lacking in killing dual mini bosses, but a sun quan active boosts the U&Y(s) and himself to a higher level for two turns, and with the right orb changing actives, which is abundant on this team, 2, 3 or even 4 sets of 4 water/wood orbs is accessible for damage that easily exceeds the million threshold. For the dungeon boss, the Muse active along with the right board with can burst through many of the higher-end bosses with the teams enhanced orbs, rows and/or a full team (yes!) of two-pronged monsters. The above settles the attack issue. (NOTE to whoever doesn't know, type boosts can only be activated one at a time, i.e., should a izanagi skill be used after a sandalphon's, the god boost will override the healer boost.) Assuming 2 skulds, muse, 2 U&Ys, and a Sun Quan, at max level with no plus eggs, the team exceeds 20000 HP, and its recovery is an intimidating 10000+, which is, invincible as longs as you endure the hit and have hearts (or can make them). The HP and base attack can be brought up via plus eggs. If one is still concerned with the HP threshold, change subs as you like to the right ones, but do keep a U&Y for the very least to keep the recovery over-flowing. All the above are based on simulation, for I have no means to testify it right now (yes, my pre-evo Skuld is mono color and at lv.15 or something...). Hope I can draw some attention to this God. P.S. It seems that Guntroll is trying to create a new era with the Norns, or at the very least the Norn subtyping (i.e water/wood, fire/water, and wood/fire), which is concurred, so far, by the new slime knights and the alt-ult Three kingdoms (三国 (さんごく)/ 三國) series. 0 By jundem#59862 6 years ago ( 7.2.3 ) I got her and I tried to make a decent physical team with her: norn of the future skuld king of atlantis aquaman awoken deity odin earth-rending emperor, siegfried ?: god I want to say this spot is for blue sonia but I don't have her so I thought having a berry dragon, king bubblie, or top droid dragon. these are all the material I have for skuld right now. feedback is greatly appreciated 0 fain#32763 6 years ago ( 7.3.0 ) There is hrungnir and hermes both are physical and if combined with skuld's active you get a full enhanced board :) , and hrungnir has some enhance blue orbs awakens . You can use hrungnir with skuld and siegfried for a full enhanced water/wood board . But you'll have some rcv problems ,you can put in water / wood healer lakshmi for the healing and enhancing active ,or ult starling for two water orb enhance awakens & orb changing ability . I think those two solve the rcv problem ( but I didn't try this team this just me theorising ) . Thank you for reading this . 0 By Pikagami#27084 6 years ago ( 7.3.0 ) Despite running mostly dragon teams, I used this Norn as a Helper since February and I'm quite impressed by her. She seems to mesh well with whatever Water/Wood monsters I used and the fact she has decent stats, Two-Pronged Attack and Resistance-Skill Bind is quite nice. She's definitely a Godfest-exclusive for me to look out for. 0 By Ishimaky#54399 6 years ago ( 7.5.1 ) The team im currently running Skuld U&Y sunquan Blue valk Blodin Assist ldr Blodin 30,000+ hp, ~4300 rcv, 12 tpa, 9 rows, 3 orb changers, and to top it all off skuld + blue valk= full board of blue and green. Gives my blonia, blodin×3 team a run for its money 0 By nturtle#21208 6 years ago ( 7.5.1 ) Why does she get that extra awakening, and why can't my Dandi get a fire row? 1 Firecat#58325 6 years ago ( 7.5.1 ) Skuld is a 6 star pull. Urd and Verdandi are 5 star pulls. Skuld is considerably more rare and probably gets the extra awakening because of that. 0 By -Zer0-#72697 6 years ago ( 7.5.1 ) I still like urd the best, mainly cause she is my only norn... 😁 But still, very powerful. 0 By Bryggyth#9817 6 years ago ( 7.5.1 ) Really excited to have gotten her today! Now to build a team... I'm thinking maybe U&Y, Apex Flower Dragon Starling, Blue Valk, and Andromeda. Plenty of TPA, and some rows from Andromeda if I have too many water orbs :P Plus, plenty of orb changing, and decent all around stats I think. 0 By Dawn#72866 6 years ago ( 7.8.1 ) Hmm I think Hermes would be a good sub for urd, if your going for a full board nuke that is. Skuld into Hermes into ars Paulina or another water enhancer has extreme damage potential. 0 By Ren#74129 6 years ago ( 7.8.1 ) I think my new team is way OP Skuld lead ult blodin ult ult blue valk Muse umi yama skuld friend 0 Boromir#75874 6 years ago ( 8.1.1 ) Nice team, but you'll struggle with plenty pf mythicals and challenge dungeons. 0 By Avelarius#60408 6 years ago ( 8.1.1 ) I haven't decided if she is better leader than Andromeda with friend Neptune Dragon. Anyway they both are on the team.

It's because as described in the Prose Edda, Skuld is a valkyrie herself! Fitting as Valkyries decide who lives and who dies in battle, and Skuld is all about the future. -1 By aszma#31409 6 years ago ( 7.3.0 ) Just a theory or something I've observed is that there are the Odins, Sonias, and Norns which each have 3 different versions (red, blue, and green). Out of all 3 odins only Green odin got an ultimate and out of the sonias only red sonia got an ultimate. Because they made blue norn blatantly better in terms of weight stats, awakenings, and rank and it would fit the pattern im going to assume that she will be the only one that gets the ultimate. 1 Very true. Blodin's ult is coming soon. The rest should follow in due time. 0 Halcon#67131 6 years ago ( 7.8.1 ) Following that pattern, both other norns are more likely to get an ultimate than Skuld because, like Grodin and Ronia, they are the "commons" of their group. The other Odins finally have/will soon have ultimates, but it's a safe assumption at this point that the common special gods will be the first to get their ults (see also: Metas, Kalis).

Skuld has a slight less recovery than the sonias (2x instead of 2.5x) but her 3x + attack more than makes up for it. Plus the blue green monsters that does exists have a decent enough recovery so it's not an issue. (Umisachi and Lakshmi are both healers and blue green).
She can work with any blue orb changers and there are two great farmables ones for her ( namely Siegfried and the starling blue flower dragon's ultimate) Plus the new coming blue time sorceress Paulina (farmable) will come to be a valuable sub for her. I've seen many players ( all JAPN sadly) that also utilize hermes, hatsume, karin, and andromeda so any REM blue orb changer you get will be useful.
Because she is a god/physical, King Bubblie acts as a decent boost for the needed spike. Ideally, the Blue Armored Knight Muse would be used, but for those who don't have, Bubblie does the job.
Her active, changing everything to heart blue and green make her a great sub for other teams. She could be used on an athena blue green yellow team. She can be used as an extra sub on a karin team. She can be used on a siegfried physical team. The possibilities are endless. (I personally value her as a leader too much to use as a sub).
Finally her skill bind resist makes her usable in the weekday dungeons hard.
Here is an example of her use:

Please join in the Skuld LOVE :DDD
Those who have her, don't let her sit around in your box unused!!
But according to ur logic yes the other two give an hp boost which is nice but skuld is a physical type. Max out her hp in plus eggs and she alone has 5k hp. Two maxed skulds is 10k. Plus instead of making all the teams blue green u could use other physical water types which are both high in hp and plentiful in numbers. Hermes makes an excellent sub for he changes orbs and high in hp. Same with siegfried. Just stick one healer blue green such as umisachi or blue flower dragon and that combined with skuld is enough for rcv. Rest can be high hp subs.
Not to mention she doesnt have an uevo yet.
In the end she can easily lead a team with around 25-30k hp just because she is physical so in the long run she isn't lacking..just check the japanese players who use her. Plus she has the rcv to heal out all that hp and makes it easier to go fruther bc of her ability to bounce back to full health which is a little harder with verdandi and urd.Overall shes an excellent leader.
Final note on hp. Since most teams are based on spiking these days that much hp isnt needed. U just need enough to survive their preemptive strikes and the goal would be to kill them before they dish out their huge move. Skuld teams have enough hp to survive that. Plus a lot of monsters these days reduce ur hp to 1%. I persoanlly have mini panic attacks when that happens and having bomb recovery makes me feel more secure and a better player loll
I run Skuld, Blonia, UmiYama, Blodin, B/B Orochi, Skuld. While I admit it's quite the luxury build; being all REM units, it has 26.1k HP and about 5.8k RCV before + eggs (easily 8.2k if you have +297 leads).
Why I think Skuld is a better lead than Ronia, statistically:
It's been said that Ronia's RCV boost is somewhat overkill considering her low HP threshold. Skuld has a decently high max HP threshold naturally, no leader skills required, and makes great use of her x4 RCV for wood units. If you sub a +297 Lu Bu in as one of your leads, a Ronia team with an average of about 3.2k HP per unit will have a max HP threshold of around 26k. While Sonias leader skill will build off the entire team in most cases, not all devils are known for their RCV stat. Throwing together a quick team of Ronia, Persephone, 2 D/D Hakus, R/D Hera, and Lu Bu(+297) as an example, I get a team that heals around 4k from 3 heal orbs, no combos. I'm sure there are other teams that would have greater RCV, and some that would have less. 4 orb changers and 2 buffers strikes me as a viable team though, so that's what I'll go off. For most dungeons I'd imagine 4k RCV would be more than enough but for top tier dungeons (which is what I'd imagine most of us are more interested in when it comes to comparing two amazing leaders), I'm not sure 4k RCV would save your hide, if they are hitting you for 25k damage a turn on multiple floors. As far as the LS attack boosts go, a 3~3.3 multiplier with an HP threshold requirement strikes me as more useful than a 2.5~3 multiplier with a combo requirement. I'm not saying Ronia is useless by any means; I think she's a great lead and capable of conquering many, many great dungeons, and if you have her you should consider yourself a lucky player. I just don't believe Ronia deserves so much more publicity, when Skuld can easily tackle just as many dungeons as Ronia.
tl;dr:
Skuld should be just as much sought after as Ronia--if not more. She naturally draws from a high HP sub pool, makes efficient use of the RCV aspect of her leader skill without having to pick between too high RCV (Ronia/Ronia) and perhaps less than desirable RCV (Ronia/Lu Bu), and has a superior attack boost for her team.
still tl;dr:
Don't feed Skuld to your Crystal Aurora Dragon--she's not a chew toy.
I hope you love her as much as I do now!
I think her ult will have to add some rcv or rcv multiplier and then an extra tpa or an extra atk boost at x combos, two rows, etc. Or an extra tpa AND a skill based atk boost. Holy crap that would be awesome!
Skuld however, that's a real interesting roll. I was wondering what I could do with her when I saw your post. I have Hermes and a max B/R Seigfreid (Kirin sub currently). Looks like she's one of the Godfest exclusives that doesn't require whaling the REM to fit in good subs. Happy to join the club! :D
Edited:
I use a water team with Skuld as leader with Ult.Hermes, Mirage Plesios (or Top Droiddragon), D.Karin, and Andromeda (or King Bubblie). This team helped me get through a lot of dungeons! I just need to level them up more. Skuld's leader skill helps me so much! Now, I appreciate physical type monsters. Skuld's skill + Hermes + Blodin (friend leader) + Mirage Plesios / King Bubblie = full board with enhanced water orbs and water enhancement/physical enhancement

I can only use this on my 4th account, which is european, since i am only rank 36
My apologies. I have heard countless times on the PAD Global FB page that Skuld is in fact the best Norn but I didn't get a chance to ask them why before the post way buried among godfest rolls and such. I figured given your enthusiastic support for Skuld, you'd be among those who consider her the best Norn and would be able to aptly explain why.
I run all team comparisons under the assumption of 0 +eggs because despite what the vocal minority would lead you to believe, getting large amounts of +eggs is no easy feat, especially if you're non iap.
---------------------------
The team in your youtube video would only have 22k HP without any +eggs.
A Verdandi team of
Verdandi, Delgado, Cu Chu, Liu Bei, Artemis, Verdandi
has 25k HP without any +eggs and thats without Artemis' 3k HP being doubled since she does not have a Fire sub element. It also has 2.2k RCV.
If we took the team in the video and subbed out Berry Dragon and Paulina with U&Y and Muse, it'd still have around 22k HP with 6.4k RCV.
--------------------------
Edit: I realized that an argument could be made for both after doing the calculations. Liu Bei doesn't get Delgado's Balance spike but brings 3 TPAs to the team as well as good orb change. Meanwhile, everyone on the Skuld team gets Muse's God spike but less orb changers on the team overall.
"Since most teams are based on spiking these days that much hp isnt needed. U just need enough to survive their preemptive strikes and the goal would be to kill them before they dish out their huge move"
While this is true, I don't agree that the Norns are suited for that. There are plenty of 25x teams that can meet the HP requirements for preemptives and are better at spiking. Imo, the Norns were designed to be the middle ground of a tank team and spike team. They have some of the desirable stats of a tank team (HP and RCV) while also having decent offensive stats (10.89x ATK and TPAs).
I would have done a comparison with Urd but I couldn't come up with a good Urd team and I didn't agree with some of the team compositions on her page.
I like her. She enables me to defeat a majority of the dungeons with relative ease. Im just sad that the norns have gotten pushed back the way they did. heck until i got one i thought they were whatever too. No one really mentions them. They arrived when too many monsters were getting insane ultimates and now with the crazy strong special gods that came out recently in japan the norns have fallen into obscurity. I believe players belittle the norns power and i want others to realize their value. They are similar to the sonias and they deserve to be desired like the sonias. If they had come out shortly before this onslaught of new gods they would be as big as the sonias. I want ppl to know that, Lol thats is my goal anyways.
Plus I believe that gungho will do an amazing ultimate for them so their "weakness" cant really last long. All the special got great ultimates so hopefully these later special gods will get some well deserved love ;)
Skuld teams would have 4x RCV which is ridiculously overkill given how much HP you would have. For that matter, double Ronias were stupid since you didn't need that much RCV. This is why Ronia + Lubu came to be, since Ronia provided RCV while Lubu provided the HP. All the RCV in the world wouldn't mean anything if you can't take a hit in the first place.
I'm definitely getting my Skuld up as a farming team, but I deviated away from 9x teams for a reason.
(Ronia teams are "stronger" because row enhancements help the whole team. Norn teams rely on two prongs and there aren't very good two prong subs for Skuld other than U&Y and Blue Valk)
