B!Lucina (yep, an IV question)

I was hoping for some advice on merging: is a +3 Brave Lucina better based on neutral s or +atk/-def IVs. The +atk is nice, but I'm a little nervous about the lowered def. Let's assume I don't inherit any skills from 5* only units.

If you use -def you're more or less dealing with a glass cannon. I have +spd -HP and I find she can't necessarily take more than one hit.

For reference, she would sit in the same def zone as Karla and Mia.

I'm starting to lean towards the neutral IVs since 51 atk is still decent and her dual role as an offensive and support unit could appreciate 31 def.

Maybe the best question to ask yourself is who you want her to fight. If you're trying to crack tough armours or even dragons with their high def you might want +atk, but if you want her to fight more than one opponent in a battle provided no axes or dragonstones/magic are involved then she needs her def or renewal or some external source of HP.
