Fae +Atk -Spd

So I finally got a good iv Fae. Sure her spd is her bane but I don't really care because she finally doesn't have a bad boon and its attack as well. What would be a good build for her that is not one of those common dragon builds with like steady breath and all that?

You will want to wait for one that is not -Spd before you upgrade her to 5* or anything. She can't afford to drop that speed if you want her to be able to tank any physical damage. At 25 speed, she gets double and KO'd by a neutral speed Shiro. You can go -Res if you want to run Fury, or you can go -HP and let the refine make up for it. With -Spd, you will need QR on her so probably don't run Fury or you are for sure out of QR2 range after a single combat.

You will definitely want to upgrade a Tiki or Nowi to give her lightning breath. If you don't have any Steady/Warding Breath fodder, maybe try one of the Brazen skills.

Brazen Skills are not easy for me to come by. Maybe since Ares is 4* now if I ever get one of him(Since my Ares has perfect ivs) I might put that on her. Probably will try and get -Hp for her but I am just happy that Atk is her boon. I prefer to go for not common skills on my units so I will I will put Dark Breath + on her since I don't wish for her to deal with hitting mages from from away. So mostly a physical tank.

When you ask for a build that's not a 'common dragon build' I have to assume you're asking for a Player Phase build. Almost all, if not all dragons, who are not named Grima(M) benefit most from an enemy phase build, because most of them have really good defenses.

That being said, you can make a player phase Fae, but it's a bit difficult with the IVs you've listed. What I would recommend is a somewhat common, but effective build that makes use of Fury to boost all her stats, and a refining her Light Breath to boost her Defense. At 0 merges, that gives her a fairly solid stat line of 51/53/28/32/33. Now the common part is the Desperation/Brash Assault combo. Yes, it's fairly commonly suggested, but that's because it works, especially on a unit with low speed and good defenses like Fae has.
