Is it possible to make atk- Hector work?

Or should I just give distant counter to someone.

+Res Hector can counter +10 QP Moonbow Reinhardt with a single Ward Armor support. Ofc you can make him work. Just make sure to use Bonfire to bolster up his offensive power.

Telling his boon would help lots. Also knowing which units you have that could benefit from Distant counter or units that you personally like would also help. But units that would really like having DC are for example Effie and Ayra who get a significant boost in matchups thanks to that skill.

Giving Sigurd DC means canceling out his unique B passive Crusaders ward in most cases. It works against Reinhardt, Olwen and desperation mages. All of those except Reinhardt are really uncommon to face against in arena (You should never let a mage survive to gain any use out of desperation anyways). So that leaves Effie then. Perhaps the best (or one of the best) non native DC user in the entire game. Even then if that is your only Hector ever you should invest in him regardless of his IVs. He is one of the few units who haven't been affected by power creep almost at all. Even at -atk his atk is higher than most units in the game and the reduced atk doesn't make big difference. He can't really one shot the enemy anyways. (Sorry if this is too long)

I forgot what crusaders ward did for a second and now I realize DC would be bad on him. Hector is a good unit so I might actually keep him. Also would DC be good on B! Roy?

Report

B!Roy is a player phase unit who likes skills like Life and death or Swift sparrow that boost his attack (and speed which is important) to activate Blazing Durandals built in heavy blade in the A slot. Keeping Hector is a good idea. He is similar to B!Ike and Dorcas but unlike B!Ike he has the ability to kill mages and unlike Dorcas he can run Quick riposte AND Vantage. Hector is still the best Axe IMO.

my hector is -atk and while hes not ideal if hes your only hector i would just keep him unless you have a more effective green unit you can use

Report

b ike & h henry are probably a better investment than hector, he might be best to use for inheritance then.
im personally just very reluctant to sacrifice a hector lol a res boon & attack bane isnt that horrible, its better than a defense bane imo

No don't use hector as fodder if he is your only hector.He can perfom miracle.I've two hectors. ONE +att -res.But I kept then both.Here is my superman.....
