Best IVs for Drive Spectrum Marth?

I have 2 5* Marths and some 4* ones I plan to merge when I build Drive Spectrum Marth. Here are the IVs I'm trying to choose between:

+def/-hp
+atk/-res
+spd/-def

I plan to run Fury as A slot and maybe keep Escape Route as B. The first IV makes him really bulky, the second is good for duels. I really do like +spd but I'm concerned about him dying more. Which IV do you guys think is best?

My Marth currently sits at 5* +10 so I've had the time to experiment with his different IV sets. The boon you'll want to look out for is +Spd and the bane either -HP or -Res.

While Marth prefers to just spur/drive his allies alot he fills his niche as a dragon slayer. Speed is important in this factor as it allows him to consistently double speedy dragons like F!Grima, Y!Tiki, speed built Nowi, and F!Corrin. It also functions as a secondary form of bulk preventing him from getting doubled by other fast swords and mages.

There's very little choice between -HP and -Res because you'll basically be taking the same hits from dragons anyway. I chose Res because I run a Reciprocal Aid build with double Renewal and I'd like him to have a higher HP pool.

Out of the ones you have though, for now I'd run with +Atk/-Res. Only reasoning for picking Atk over Spd right now is because Marth has a super bane in Defense and putting yourself down to 25 def makes you pretty squishy.

If its for the spectrum then it the iv's don't matter much since hes just for a assist but if you want to use him offensively then I would go for +Atk -Res since he won't have distant counter and His Falchion makes Dragons go away.
