Luna vs Pure damage special?

I wonder if it's a limit when bonfire/iceberg is better than luna(or viceversa).We all know that we inherit Bonfire/iceberg when the special are going to do more than 15 damage.But if a unit has bought,decent def/res and high atk,is it worth luna or Pure-damage?

Luna has no connection to your own tack stats but is fully reliant on the enemy defense stat instead. Zephiel has the highest raw defense of 38 which means Luna is +19 vs him. But if you had bonfire add 16 vs EVERYONE then it's blatantly better

Does Hector count? He has 37, but +DEF gets him up to 40. Zephiel has one of the highest DEF stats, but lack of IVs put him down a notch.

As a general guideline, you want to get 15 damage with a raw damage special that you choose. That's 50 ATK, 30 DEF, or 30 RES. Use Luna if you want a 3 turn cooldown special and you don't meet those benchmarks.

However, there is also another situation where you use Luna, and that is Quad builds, specifically ones with Desperation. You do so much raw damage that high HP won't let you tank it properly and the enemy needs high DEF (or RES if Olwen) to tank your onslaught, so Luna is worth it there. That's why units like B!Cordelia and Hana run Luna over Draconic Aura.
