How do you feel about Nowi?

I have a 4* +spd -hp Nowi waiting on the sidelines. I have a lot of feathers and I though about upgrading her, if it's worth it. So I wanted to ask all of you, whether you find her to be a valuable and strong teammate.

I don't really like her as a character and her art is a bit too much of a jail-bait if you ask me, so I'm speaking strictly about her abilities.

Thanks in advance for all the replies!

To me thats a grade A IV spread. Despite the page of hers saying -res is preferred she has plenty of HP to spare and like anyone would say, +3 Hp seal fixes the HP bane. Plus her res stat is pretty good, like 27 for a tank is not bad in the slightest.

I have been using a Now with the same IVs as yours and I firmly believe it is ideal. A -Res IV hinders too many mage matchups. I run her with a Fae in arena and Fortify Dragons has been fantastic for the two of them if you have any Ninians. Nowi is easily the best dragon and worth upgrading if you need a solid blue with excellent BST. I recommend using Triangle Adept/Quick Riposte or Fury/Swordbreaker for A and B slots.

I have been trying to get Fae since the beginning of this game and still without any results. I hope that it'll be easier with the higher 4* rate now. I have Ninian, who is a dedicated triangle adept user, to make her slightly more useful apart from just dancing, so I would go with the Fury/breaker build on Nowi, if I promoted her. Can she occasionally tank blue mages? I guess that Reinhardt kills her easily, right?

If you've got some kind of reliable healing source then Nowi is fine to tank most mages with a Spd buff (37), so I'd say put a Hone on whoever else you have.
DB3 and Moonbow (or any offensive special, obviously) proccing Rein will kill her, even if Atk neutral.
Good luck with getting that Fae, I managed to land my first ever yesterday as-it-is (+Spd/-HP, same as my Ninian amusingly) so I'm starting to build my Dragon team now.

Congrats on the Fae my friend. My Fae is +Res/-Def, so I'm still hoping to someday get one +Spd/-HP. I'm still hoping with all these sacred stones heroes being released that they release Myrrh as a green dragon to give more choices. We have so many fliers and horses, I'm glad they released another armor finally too.

i run a team core of nowi olivia nino and nowi has always been great for me, mine's +atk/-res although i would like to have +atk/-hp or -def, and i run TA+QR on her. i like the mechanic to insta-win vs anything red so much that i was inspired to take ruby sword, distant counter, and QR on olivia too to instawin vs the popular green mages and hector. olivia and nowi use their player phases mostly buffing/dancing for nino so its nice to have my buff units have strong enemy phases. i also like that all of them are available as 4/3star so long term i can eventually get +10 on all of them
