Advice on building LA Roy

So i have a +def -spd LA Roy which I am quite happy about. I am planning on building him like this:

Weapon: Guard bow+(res)
Assist: Reposition
Special: Iceberg/Bonfire

A: Sturdy stance
B: Quick Riposte
C: Def ploy
S: Distant defence

So he should be getting 46/45 def and res when attacked by a range unit. It's kinda the same as the optimal build on the gp page but the only difference is the A slot coz i dont have an extra Celica.or.micaiah for another distant def but i do have a spare legendary ephraim.

So basically I just wanna ask if it's worth sacrificing legendary ephraim for that A skill. Sorry for the long post and thanks in advance guys!

TBH, I think it's up to you. What you have looks like it'd work well enough with most any A-Skill, but it could definitely make use of Lephraim's Sturdy Stance (Probably better than he could), and if you have an extra, there's nothing wrong with killing him off. That said, you may find another unit later, and filling the a slot takes away the option for a CC or a Distant Def if one comes to you, but as far as what you mentioned in your post, I would do it as long as you think Roy'll be useful.

If you run him on a horse team with buffs, close counter in his A slot works well.

I actually have the same IVs on my Roy and just finished building him!
Mine has

Guardbow + (def)
Reposition
Bonfire
Close Counter
Quick riposte 2
Hone Cavalry
close def seal

I use him together with gunntrha who has fortify cavalry and also the wind blessing so he has
45 def / 46 res at both ranges!
