Askr Trio Refines Thread

Alfonse (Folkvangr): brazen atk/def 3. Effect refine is TA3.
Anna (Noatun): effect refine: if HP >= 50%, can move next to an ally within two spaces. So Zelgius' warp powder, except it's good down to 50%HP.
Sharena (Fensalir): neutralizes foe's bonuses during combat (dull ranged + dull close). Effect refine is spd/def bond.

I think all of them are great except Sharena... :(

Well you could always give he an ally support, refine, summoner support, and Atk/Res Bond 3 or Atk/Def 3, tons of options are open now. Plus no bonuses are counted so pretty decent

I'm not a huge fan of bond skills because I think the positioning for them is really awkward on player phase. I wasn't really expecting much since they can't be merged, but now they can still be used for fun and still be effective now. I have to admit Annas refine makes her probably one of the most fun units to use now with everyone teleporting around the map. And Sharena and Alfonse kind of look like they were meant to be played with each other.

My opinions:
The main issue is the scarcity of dew. All of these refines are about average or slightly better, but when I have Wing Sword, Felicia's Plate, Camilla's Axe, Sieglinde, Forblaze, and who knows what else all lined up, these three are a hard sell.
Alfonse is an excellent update, but take a def refine over TA. He can tank blues with 43 def and an A-skill.
Anna I already have with slaying axe so I'll stick to it and save 200 dew, but it's a useful refine.
Sharena's refine is for those good at tactics or enemy phase builds. Spd/def bond on enemy phase is basically better steady stance, which is what Nephenee got. I definitely won't prioritize this refine, but it's great with atk/spd bond, atk/def bond, or another spd/def bond. Also good with brazen atk/def or brazen atk/spd (the latter probably with desperation)
