Making bad units useful

So, I'm kinda bored right now, so I want to make some useless unit useful in some way. Any suggestions on who to start?

P.S: I'm f2p, but have pretty much every skill available to fodder

If you want to make a bad unit useful, start with Odin. You don’t get much worse than the worst bladetome user in the game. Lol

I've been thinking about him, but I think it would get pretty boring with him not being able to kill anything lol. And I also already have a heavy built tailtiu, so i will work on another unit for now

Yeah, it was not intended to be serious lol but in all seriousness, Cecilia is a meh unit that as a 4*+10 can do some hard work on a horse team. Cherche with Brave axe+ is another solid unit, and Frederick aka “poor man’s Cherche” has the same solid niche. Most green units are actually really good when built.

I have a 5* Cecilia with gronnblade on a horse emblem, she is really good for that.

I also use a Brave axe 5* Cherche in my flier emblem and I have to say that she can destroy almost everything.

Frederick I never wanted to build because I already have a horse emblem and I don't really like using them, they make the game really unfair and boring

Yeah, I use a blade Cecilia as well as a 4* max merge. Cherche and Frederick are in the same group.

For others, you could always build donnel or oboro, both are tanky and surprisingly strong.

I've been working hard to think of ways to make Henry into a great unit because he was amazing in Awakening and I refuse to see him get the shaft in Heroes.

In this game, his strong suits are Hp and Defense. So I was thinking of slapping on Fortress Defense 3, Quick Riposte (or Red Tome Breaker), and Fortify Defense. Then his special could be Bonfire or Ignis depending on your tempo.

I don't know if this is too bland or not, but I just thought of this in about 15 seconds. If anyone has some input that would be great since I genuinely want to make Henry a valid unit. He's got the potential.

The firt "useless" unit I built was Spring Xander, his build is really close to the henry you mentioned. He has a base def of 49 (I can raise that with the def seal) and he can tank pretty much everything while being able to do 50+ damage with ignis. Thanks for the help, I may build a Henry and see how it works

Report

I once saw a max merged Henry running close counter/QR3 and infantry pulse along with an owl tome and Aether. But Ignis would be so much better on him. He was a pretty solid tank.

Report

All my current good units are already built, not much to do there. I also like using different strategies, so it'll be fun to try some bad units (like my spring Xander)

Report

Had a lot of Beruka's lying around, decided to merge her as a 4*, one of the best physical defensive fliers out there. Built her with Slaying Axe(def), Earth Boost/Fortress Defense to extend her defense, QR, Threaten ATK, and Iote Shield defense.

Report

Hmm. How about trying to make Virion awesome? He's decent at best right now. Doesn't have the Atk for a brave bow, doesn't have the speed for a silver bow, doesn't have the res to tank anything. Has pretty good def, and I think the highest HP of any archer(could be mistaken)
