Double edged luck

Hey guys,
I decided to do some more yolo pulls from the summer banner and ended up with 2 perfect IVs Linde and Fallen Celica (both are +Spd -Hp) :
My previous Linde was -Spd so I'm using the latest one no questions asked
But my previous Celica (who's +2 and who I plan to make +10 at some point) is +Atk -Hp. She works pretty fine like this with Aether and Heavy Blade ss, which won't be as effective if I decide to go with the +Spd version.
What do you think, is it better to use the +Spd or +Atk one in the long run?

What build are you running her with?

She has 51 attack just with Beloved Zofia, so, depending on her skills and team composition, I don't think it really matters if she has an attack boon or not since she'll have 55 attack with neutral attack and 58 with an attack boon. Again, this is before actually adding on skills and ally buffs/enemy debuffing.

So, to answer your question, I vote for going with speed.

I second the speed IV. As Krazytre said, she has very high attack at Neutral and with Beloved Zofia. You will always end up doing more damage with high speed rather than high attack as you will double more often. 55 atk - 30 def would be 25 dmg x2 attacks is 50 dmg. 58 atk - 30 def would be 28 damage with a lower likelihood of doubling. Increasing the pool of units you double is worth more than the 3 extra attack.

Oh, then yeah. If you're running her with Death Blow 3 as well as Beloved Zofia, then she'd be at 65 attack on initiation due to Death Blow's +6 and Zofia's +4, or 61 if she's not at full HP.

More than enough to run Heavy Blade.

There’s no objective best way to go with Fallen Celica. The smartest choice depends greatly on what other sword heroes you have (and their IVs). It’s good to diversify their strengths. What kind of diversification you do depends on your resources, but you should try to limit your overlap.

So if you have some of the other popular speedster swords built up for speed (Ayra, Karla, Soleil, Lyn), I’d recommend sticking with Attack boon. On the other hand, if you’re lacking one, I would go with +speed.

Well I followed your advice guys and I’m pretty happy with the result!
She obliterates everything even without support
Next step is giving her DC, I have a spare hector who’s ready for her

If she's having issues activating heavy blade, get your team to buff her. She's in the range where it'll push her over the necessary threshold a lot of the time.
