Armor Emblem Choices

Just summoned an LA Hector from the new banner with solid IVs (+DEF - HP), and was incredibly happy until I realized that I didn't have room for him in my current armor team.There is absolutely no way that I'll be replacing my Distant Counter Amelia or Winter Tharja with him, and Effie is the only blue Armor unit I use, so that's also not an option. I could replace my Black Knight with him though, since I usually have Tharja take care of all the units that normally he would. At the same time though, Amelia can also take care of the same units that Hector usually would, and her speed usually makes her the better option. Should I make the switch?

We're gonna be getting LA!Eliwood during the next Tempest Trials, so Effie could be replaced soon enough. :P.

If Amelia is your only Armor March unit, then I wouldn't replace her. Armor March is too good for a skill to pass up in my opinion, and it gets rid of a lot of what makes Armor Emblem terrible. Again, in my opinion.

I'd put in Daddy!Hector in place of Black Knight.

Then again, you could always give Armor March to another unit...

1. That's awesome, he looks like a very solid and balanced unit. Who knows, I could replace Effie but there's also the option of creating a second armor team now haha.

2. Actually, my Tharja has Armored March (Foddered from a dreadful IVs Halloween Henry) and it works well with the Rauðrblade+ I gave her, since they can buff her with Hone/Fortify boosts while she allows them to move an extra space. My Amelia is +1 merged and has my summoner support. I foddered Hector to her for DC and Goad Armor, and her stats are ridiculous. (Look at my profile character for more info.) I don't see any reason to replace her on my Armor Team for Hector.

3. Yea, I'll probably put him in for BK, and maybe create a second armor team with BK and the new LA Eliwood. Thanks for your help!

Hector (LA) is an absolute beast, i just put mine up so i'll drop this here for your comparison.

Nice, those are insane stats. His Attack bar goes off the screen lol. Unfortunately, I don't have a spare Winter Tharja for Vengeful Fighter fodder, because I'd definitely use that build if I had it.

Here's my Amelia in comparison

Vengeful Fighter can be replaced by Quick Riposte if you have the fodder, i mean you lose one special charge but he's going to be doubled by everyone anyway so you should still activate Aether quite consistently.

Also, nice amelia :)
