Firesweep Archer build idea

Build idea for a firesweep chipper meant to deal massive team damage. Don't have a lot of decent archers yet, so I'm using Clarisse unless I get someone better.

Clarrise:
Firesweep Bow+/Rally Atk-Res/Draconic Aura
Life and Death 3/Poison Strike 3/Savage Blow 3
Seal: Savage Blow 3.

Pretty much a stock chip Firesweep set. I have the SP, the feathers, and the Skills to get her up to that point, but haven't done it as I'm not sure if it's worth using her. Thoughts?

Seems solid to me. 10 damage to target and 14 to all within two spaces after battle. Should open up a lot of units to being taken down that might otherwise last, even just the ten can be a mean hit if she deals zero against something high defense that a mage can then finish. If that gets the whole team it COULD be devastating. My biggest concern would be that it probably puts a lot of people into vantage zone so nobody else would be able to finish them off before they get a turn to attack the probably in range clarisse. Another firesweep nuke might actually be good, that or hardy bearing.

Works pretty well with a dancer and/or reposition unit. More so in pve than arena. There are other archers that do it better though. With the upcoming 8% banner you will get better archers in cordelia or lyn. I would wait until you pull from the banner

For Clarisse specifically, darting blow does much better than life and death, since she struggles with consistently doubling. LND's +5spd isn't worth the loss of defenses when you could get +6spd with darting blow anyways. Other than that, it's a solid build. But Faye pulls it off pretty well too.
