Bracing Stance 2: fodder o keep

Hello. I got a flying Olivia last week and I wanted to use it. I love flying dancer units. I think they are really really op (already have Brave Ninian and NY Azura). The problems are:

-Her IVs are pretty bad... I know she works like a dancer. But she is -ATA, +Def. This can be good, cause her A skill Bracing Stance makes her a good defensive user. She has 29 defense and 27 resistence. Whe she is attacked, she has 33 and 31. Not bad. Not good at all. And her speed is only 34 and her attack has bane so... SHE CANT FIGHT AT ALL. However, the other skills are really good... her weapon and guidance <3

-Bracing Stance 2 is a really good option if you dont have Distant Defense. My Julius needs Distant Defense and I have no access to this skill. However, with Bracing Stance he can tank physical and magical units and even when he is attacked by close units!

Should I just fodder him Bracing Stance and wait I get another Flying Olivia? This skill would help him a lot (Already have Ninian, BNinian, Azura, NYAzura, and normal Olivia).

Dancers aren't meant to be put in the front lines all the time because of their low BST (which is even lower for fliers) and would rather use their support skill on a unit who can actually fight well most of the time; unless they're running niche builds for countering specific units.
If you need a red unit for something like Flier Emblem, don't fodder her off just yet. If you really need Distant Defense and have orbs, try summoning for Micaiah. Otherwise if you like Julius and can't spare orbs, fodder her off.

I think B!Ninian is referring to Bridal Ninian, but I would love if this happened next year. Ninian is one of my favorites!

EDIT: I reread the text and noticed that this person literally wrote out Brave Ninian. >.<

Now I feel stupid...

iirc, this pushes Julius to 26/48 eff Def/Res unmerged (38/50 with ploy and DD seal) which makes him very tanky...

I say fodder her since you have other dancers available that may actually be able to contribute combatively. However, you should also think about foddering her other skills since she also comes with Aerobatics (not sure) and Guidance (which is better in the C-slot) so she could actually help another flying unit better.

I'd keep her. She's quite tanky and her base kit is so good for a support unit. Add some drive or hone atk or a tactic seal and you have a master support unit. If at some point you want to fodder her, you don't even lose anything.

Bracing stance is a really good skill, but I'd probably fodder her for chill spd. Depends on your preference and the needs in your barracks, though.
