I'm really unsure about Tiki's A slot. I've put Mirror Stance 2 in there for now, but I'm not 100% sure that her RES is really worth shoring up, so I don't want to sacrifice F!Morgan unless it actually a good idea.

I gave Ninian Sol instead of Aether because I worry that with Aether's long cooldown, she wouldn't fire it off in time to keep her alive.

If anyone has any build suggestions, about Tiki or anyone else, I'd very much appreciate it. Thanks!

As much as I love Ninian, Nowi would be a better choice. Dragons are typically an enemy phase team so a dancer is unnecessary and Nowi has better BST and spread.

For your G!Robin, I recommend using the Armored Boots SS to ensure he doesn't lag behind the others.

Robin, Nowi, and Tiki are great with Steady Breath. If you want to shore up Tiki and Grima against magic, Warding Breath is pretty good as well. Aside from those recommendations, the team looks incredibly solid to me. :)

Edit: As a note, I do think Tiki's Res is worth shoring up as she's the only one who stands a chance of tanking Julia/Deirdre. Likewise, Nowi is much better to have than Ninian as she tanks Falchion much better.

Thanks very much! I... actually kind of forgot about Deirdre/Julia, so that is an excellent point. Goodbye, F!Morgan. You're making a noble sacrifice on this day. (I don't have a spare L!Ike.)

Apologies, Ninian. You're going back to the barracks.

Thanks again for taking the time to respond. I really appreciate the advice!

It's no problem at all. Again, Steady Breath is the best A skill for the dragons closely followed by Warding Breath. Since you don't have the fodder, Fury is also quite good on them, particularly Nowi and Tiki. I haven't had the experience with Mirror Stance, but I'm not sure it's better than Fury on them. If you do end up putting Mirror Stance on her, please let me know how it plays. :D

I'm still waffling on Mirror Stance, but if I do go for it, I'll test it out and get back to you. I probably will go with it, though. It's such a new skill that no builds appear to even use it yet, so I'm kind of itching to take it for a test run.

I haven't really made use of the Stance skills. I feel like the double stances are much better than the single, but who knows. It seems pretty good with QR but the bond skills seem better overall since they work on both phases.
