Bold Fighter for who?

I sniped blue on the legendary banner and finally got a Hardin, my first. My question is, should I fodder him off for bold fighter or not, and who should I give it to if I go the fodder route? My main armor team is:
Zelgius, +spd/-atk
LA Hector, +def/-spd
H!Jakob, +atk/-hp (CC)
???
My blue slot is sometimes Effie (no DC), sometimes Lyn (no CC), sometimes Eliwood (no DC), and sometimes W!Robin (no DC). Basically everyone has good IVs, no merges though, and no DC except for Hector and the natural weapon DCs. Any help would be much appreciated :D

Whyyyyy did you put CC on HJakob he's the perfect recipient here. The brave quad with all the extra charges blasts through, like, everything. Now you can waste the CC (or if you really like him I guess it's worth giving him multiple builds. Give him the guard bow+close def+vengeful combo to go with CC) or leave him forever passive and baity. Brave quad Effie also destroys everything, but she'll be really easy to double so depends what you already put on her. If you're using Berserk Armads, bold fighter ignis should also blow up pretty much anything.

I wouldn't recommend +spd Zelgius or LA Lyn or W.Robin; in my books you hone them and go for natural doubles, saving bold fighter for someone else. Zelgius uses it well, though, esp. to help his atk bane with black luna.

If you have steady/warding breath, you could play the breath+bold+QR combo on Hardin himself with bonfire/iceberg. I recommend this combo be saved for a DC unit like him because we only get one QR seal.

I would definitely go for Bold Fighter on the LA Lyn. H! Jakob may have been a good recipient, but he's also amazing with Close Counter, so it's not really any sort of issue.

Zelgius has Warp Powder which is already great for arena scoring, and even if you did want Bold Fighter on him I think other options would be better (Wrath, Vengeful Fighter, Vantage, etc). Hector is essentially the same situation, though it's your choice. If you wanted a DC user for it, I'd use it on the LA Hector.

Now, LA Lyn would be amazing because you could give her a Barrblade build, which is absolutely god-like with Bold Fighter. You don't have to worry about speed anymore, so you can just focus on damage and defenses. Stack a bunch of armor buffs on her, and watch massive player-phase destruction ensue.

Well, let me first ask what are your Hardin IVs? You dont care about him? he is (in my opinion) the best blue unit in the entire game, if there is an armor unit that benefits from that skill is Hardin itself.

If you dont care about him, then i would say Halloween Jakob would make most out of it, just because your Zelgius is already +spd and he will mostly doubles most units anyway.

By what you said on your post tho, i think you should put hardin on your armor emblem and wait until Winter Lissa is on the next Legendary banner to get 1 or 2 to then fodder to H Jakob and you will be set.
