If you would rather just make your current 3 more powerful, Camilla is your best bet. Her axe plus a ward fliers and drive atk ss can give any fliers within 2 spaces +10 atk and +7 spd. Using hone fliers, it can be 12/9. On the other hand, Cherche with a brave axe and death blow can deal some crazy damage, and desperation plus brash assault ss can let her quad if her hp is low enough. However, yours doesn't have the best ivs. Shigure seems a little better stat wise than Cordelia, so if you want to use one of them, use Shigure. Personally, I would go with Camilla because she is a great flier buffer, and you have a blade tome on your team who could use the buffs. (So the hone fliers would go to regular Camilla to buff summer Camilla)

I really appreciate that you've thought this through unlike half the questions we get here which are just like "what should I do with ____ kthxbai". I'm content to answer maybe a few of those, but the proportion of those we get is really more than I enjoy. So thanks

The double HF+FF idea is interesting. I'd actually use a dancer if that's the setup you're going for. I consider goads the way to really maximize the team's potential generally, but you have a team with two enemy phase units so I think your focus on visible buffs is not bad.

Of the choices you offered, I would probably put the hone on Myrrh, actually, especially if your fourth member will not be a dancer. I think Myrrh needs the hone the least unless there is a dancer.

And if you're not going to use a dancer, let the last member be a non-blue. Your principal player phase unit is blue; it is preferable that your second player phase unit have no fear of high-res greens and maybe have some def. Cherche fits that description, but you could also look into L.Ryoma if you pull at all on legendary banners.

Thanks for the thoughtful input. My other account uses a similar setup, but with different units: LRobin, Cherche, HNowi, and Tana. It's great, and I was going to go for a similar HF/FF approach here.

Unfortunately, I don't have a flying dancer, and this team will be for clearing Flier quests. Azura would be a great fourth if I had her.

I had planned on pulling for Elincia for the red on this team, but I scored a Tiki while pulling for Summer Camilla, so I couldn't not use her. It's a shame I got a -Spd because that hurts her otherwise good PP potential, but she's still a solid unit.

I hadn't considered that Shigure and Cordelia would result in both PP units being blue; I'd been leaning toward them to try out a Galeforce build. While Brave Axe Cherche* is really impressive with HF, I've built her up on my other account, so I'd prefer to try out a different unit. Maybe a support-focused Camilla with a Spd boon and her Prf would PP well enough to cover the bad matchups for Camilla.

I'll definitely consider LRyoma or Hinoka (WT) if I pull one. Future changes to this team are the main reason I want to carefully consider who gets the extra Hone Fliers. I think Myrrh is a safe bet because she runs DC so well and is a great bow counter.

*She's an amazing 4*+10. Phenomenal value for a ~30k feather investment.
