finally a proper defensive blue flier?

so i managed to pull a res+hp- tana from the new banner and she is my first copy. with a superboon in res and her weapon def refine would put her def stat at a nice 29 def/res. add +7/7 from weapon effect when against melee and she sits pretty at 36/36 what im wondering is, what a slot would make her tank better? close def 3 works well against melee but bracing stance helps her tank range alittle bit. maybe fury to boost all stats for both phase and extra spd might prevent doubles.
im really leaning on CD3 and CD3 seal to put her defences at 48/48. extra +4/4 from NYazura weapon and NY camillas weapon both units running ward fliers for+8/8. go overboard and merge to +10 later down the line for +4/4 more. ally and summoner support for additional +4/4. tana will have 68def/res when tanking a melee unit. maybe last flier can have ward flier + rally def/res for +7/7 more hitting 75/75
that or i cop out and just build her offensively
Build for tanking melee, screw the ranged

A few things.

There's not going to be that many situations where a unit is taking only one source of damage, you won't be able to leave her in range of an enemy melee unit that is next to an archer for example.

Sure, she makes a good melee tank with that build, that's undeniable, but what's the point? Why build a flier defensively when they have the mobility to escape enemy-phase entirely?

good question, why? well maybe its because my blade tome flying team is too op and just wanted to build a alternative team that can tank rather then run away all the time. with that much def/res and maybe chill atk or atk smoke she may just be able to survive archers and with new Hmia out, she can heal and stop special procs. not planning on using tana for every battle, just select ones where there is no threat to tana and can safely tank any unit. u would be a questionable player if u put a flier without lote shield anywhere near archers in the first place

You mentioned that you have blade tome fliers, which works perfectly with NY Azura and for having a fortify on the team for extra buffs to Tana. Then I would consider putting Iote's shield on the blade mage and with fury you would probably tank one hit from an archer just fine as long as there's no brave bow. (In any case, you have a singer so how hard would it be to dive into the position and probably get back out?) So you can stack close def for +19 , which already has her at 48/48, plus there's a fortify and hagoita; I think that should be plenty even without merges. So the buffs on the team are hone (NY Azura), fortify (someone other than Tana or the blade mage), goad (Tana), and probably a second goad because there's already so much def going on, but if you want flexibility you could put a second fortify because it's easier to make sure the blade tome is maximally buffed that way.

my blade tome build uses Springcamilla, Summercamilla, Summertana, Bridalninian,(as weak blade but dancer) and Nino. team comp changes depending on enemies and Spring camilla can pretty decently tank archers with raventome TA and lote shield if archer is a threat.
reason why i stack so much ward is due to NY camilla having nice defensive stats (offence is also nice) to be able to run DC and more bulk can keep NYazura alive longer, and on this account my Lrobin is Res+ making her stats pretty defensive. id like to go all defensive cos bladetome is purely always offensive. its like having an armor team that can move 2 spaces and over multiple terrain with ease
