Brave Bow on H! Jakob?

He’s +DEF/-SPD, with Wary Fighter his speed is not accounted at all until he gets doubled when below 50% making Brave Bow’s speed penalty mitigated

I’m planning on equipping Death Blow 3 as well as bonfire for his special

Is this a good idea? Any thoughts on this build or any other suggestions/ideas?

Since he's +def, I'd say that Guard Bow+ would also work quite well on him, giving him 48 defense and 46 res with DD 3 seal and that's without armor buffs.

Thanks so much! Only problem now is those close hitting units... Any solution in dealing with them? Or no, Jakob can deal with most things range, but the rest should be noted and countered by team members etc.

You could give him the close defense seal and keep his native Wary Fighter 3, and that way he could have over 40 ranged defense and close defense, especially if you have a stacking ward armors team. Close counter is also a really good option for him if you have it available.

Brave Bow is tough to go wrong with, especially since he does have the same atk stat as Bridelia(therefore tied for the highest atk archer) With that defense, though, you could also opt for Slaying Bow refined for Res, to give him more balance defenses and guaranteed that after he's hit, he can throw Bonfire on his next turn, or guaranteed activation if the opponent is feeling Brave.

I have thought of inheriting slaying now, but sadly, I don’t have one currently... Great point though! This sounds really great having Jakob be able to dish out a punch quicker with the cooldown!

I currently have access to Assasin bows and brave bows atm

And can anyone answer how to equip a Gaurd Bow unto him? Sorry, I’m a noob with this weapon refinement system

I believe that you inherit an assassination bow+ to him and refine it? Is it just like that?
