Best users of Sorcery Blade and Steady Stance 4?

I'm sure Beruka will love Steady Stance 4. It will free her B slot for QR as Guard will be in Steady Stance 4, meaning that she can user her seal slot for something like CD3. Also good for other units who'd rather use this over Steady Breath (especially for those who can't use Breath skills).

Sorcery Blade is kind of a odd skill for an A slot. It works well with Bond skills and other skills that require units to be adjacent to others. The first unit I thought of is Lloyd, who needs to be beside an infantry mage to get his refine bonuses.

I'm just wondering if Roy/Robin (with Fire and Lighting swords) will get this built in.

Besides that yeah, Lloyd would like this. Though to be fair, I'm more worried regarding if this is only usable by infantry. I hope so since armors or cavs with this sounds, visceral.

I mean basically anyone for Steady Stance 4 because it's not even creative it's just gross.

Sorcery is definitely a more interesting one. I'm thinking maybe on my Lilina. She gives up 6 damage for potentially much more by itting their defense. Plus having Isthar, Lewyn, and Ylg as sacrifices to my dedication for all to see.

Just my initial thoughts, but sorcery blade is going to be pretty specific.
- First of all, it's a bond skill, so it's difficult to use on player phase. If you're playing enemy phase, you probably need bulk.
- You're giving up either extra stats or DC/CC to make a bid for extra damage, so its competitors are any bond skill granting atk
- I find that melee units tend to have lower res and ranged units tend to have lower def. So the main users will be melee units other than dragons who struggle with atk or who want to keep their atk lower in favour of more bulk/speed and mages with good res who want to hit around the res of other mages.
- It is somewhat reminiscent of blue flame. A lot of enemy phase units can similar damage out of bonfire or ignis using the correct weapon. Anna might like this skill a lot.

I went through the list of heroes pretty quickly using the criteria I offered above, and frankly I find this skill hard to recommend. I tend to prefer just more bulk on an enemy phase unit.
