Hector vs M!Grima

Im struggeling finding the optimal green unit for my main team.
My team is currently Nowi +4, L!Ike +3, Pricilla (Pain, Wrathfull Staff, Savage Blow Build) +2 and either Hector +1 (+Atk/-Spd) or M! Grima (+Spd/-Res).
The problem is i have neither steady breath fodder for Grima to get him to the level of optimal, nor i have bold fighter for Hector, so I struggle to decide who is better in general.
Both have Aether, Hector has his Armads refined as well (use both Armads).
Who would you use and with which build (especially unsure abaut Hectors Build)

I like M! Grima more myself, but if your Ike isn't using the quick riposte seal your hector would absolutely love to run the omnibreaker set with Wary Fighter, qr3 seal and Armads.

My Ike runs qr3 + close defense and my nowi runs qr3 distant defense, so the qr3 seal is on hector.
Is Aether on Hector worth without a verge or bolt skill ?
Yes i also ran this build and i just upgraded the Berserk Amads to experiment and now i was unsure which build is better.

In general I'd say M!Grima, but given your IVs your Hector is probably better. A +Spd/-Res M!Grima isn't unusable by any means, but that boon isn't helpful and the bane is less than ideal, while your Hector has perfect IVs. Hector's really flexible, but given that you run a healer it might be better to give him LA!Hector's set (Berserk Armads, DC, Wary Fighter, Glimmer). Alternatively, you can run the standard Hector set of Armads/DC/Vantage/Ignis, or switch it up with Berserk Armads/DC/Vantage/Bonfire/QR seal.

DUDE!!! You have perfect ivs on your Hector, and the worst boon on Grima, AND Aether on both of them!? Use Hector for sure!! Use his default skills, give him an appropriate C skill and seal, and he's ready to show the world what optimal ivs can do!!!

I run Wary Fighter 3 and Heavy Blade 3 on my Hector personally, so he can get his Special charged quickly while also protecting himself from being destroyed by powerful mages- but really, the sky's the limit with Hector behind the wheel lol
