Infantry Dorcas team

Hey guys,

I usually don't ask too many questions, because I'm trying to do things by myself, but this thing seems kind of interesting to me, so I'd like to hear your opinions.

It would be a team centered around Dorcas who's my only infantry pulse hero and using his ability to create a deeper infantry synergy.

The team would consist of Dorcas, Ike, Brave Lucina and Delthea. With their standard builds:
Ike +spd -def with HB, vantage aether
Lancina +def -hp with fury renewal aether
Dorcas +def -atk with his base kit (and while swaping for Bonfire)
Delthea +spd -atk with DB + desperation.

The basic idea is accelerating cooldown through infantry pulse, buffing all other teammates with Delthea's tome and giving drive skills to others (except for Delthea) from Lucina, which should make Ike and Dorcas into offensive powerhouses. I have yet to try it, because my Dorcas is currently lvl1.

Do you see any obvious problems that this composition could have (both on arena defense and offense)?

Thanks in advance for any opinion!

Seems like a solid strategy. Since I have done similar things using Delfie with Ike and Legion and Summer Xander with other units, I can say it should work out.

One thing you might want to consider is giving Bonfire to Ike and Lancina - Infantry Pulse only reduces Cooldown once so making 3CD to 2CD specials is simply nice, while i do not know if there is merit to reducing Aether to 4. Especially for Ike, who was originally designed to perfectly work with a 5 Cooldown, the infantry pulse might just go to waste there.

Thanks, that´s a good point. It would take away a couple of arena points, but giving Ike bonfire would make a lot of sense, also considering that it doesn't get that much value in regular arena. I could then also give him fury to boost his base spd to 37 making him even more powerful, because bonfire lowered by 1 + heavy blade would be kind of awkward imho and it would make aĺmost no difference.
