Give Bold Fighter to Sheena or wait for Vengeful Fighter?

I have a W!Lissa lying around that I don't use, and I've been looking for VF fodder for a long time but none has been showing up. Which begs the question: will Sheena do well with Bold Fighter or will she perform better with VF, sticking with QR3 until fodder comes by? She's +8 and is +res -spd, with DC, Armor March, Aether, and Slaying Axe

Wait for Vengeful. Giving her Bold Fighter as a sort of stand in just seems like a waste

Yeah, those were my thoughts as well. In that case, I'll likely fodder it off to another unit.

My options are +atk -hp Berkut's Lance Effie (another merge project I'm working on), LA! Eliwood (with DC), and a +2 +spd Zelgius. Would you say it's worth foddering it off to one of these?

Zelgius seems to be the best out of the 3 here. LA!Eliwood has limited merge potential so that’s literally a waste, and Effie prefers to be on the defensive with Berkut’s Lance and DC

Vengeful Fighter. Bold Fighter is not the greatest on Sheena due to her low-ish attack stat. Vengeful Fighter is more up her alley since she's more of an enemy phase unit.

If you simply go for a +Def/-spd iv, refine her slaying axe with Def, and slap deathblow 4 or sturdy blow 2, she can deal some nasty damage with ignis.

But i guess you can get similar result with effie.

Bold/Fighter/QR actually gives her the best matchup spread in Arena overall, being slightly weaker on enemy phase whereas it is exponentially stronger on player phase. You have to keep in mind that if she has Slayng Lance and you can lower her specia cooldown by an additional charge (by using Legendary Hector, for example), she will always proc Aether on the first round of combat. This is incredibly potent, AND it usually tops her HP off quite nicely because her first hit will be weak, leaving enough HP to siphon with the Aether hit.

However, all this doesn't really matter. You have to ask yourself what role you need her to fulfill. I gave mine the only VF I had, simply because she is the enemy phase unit on my team. I don't need her to be on the offensive, ever.

There is a real case to be made for Special Fighter being the best right now, though. Special Fighter all but ensures that she will survive EVERY encounter, slightly weakening her target. This opens up possibilities for bonus heroes taking the kill in Arena, which is the current boring meta. You don't even take QR as the seal for fear of one rounding enemies. Just Special Fighter, and as much support as you can for the bonus unit.
