Need to clean my barrack

Looking to inheriting 5* unit that currently sitting in my barrack, reason because my priority to invest is female unit.
So the unit in the list is
- Innes (archer, bad iv)
- Soren
- Jeorge
- Dorcas (bad iv and his skill is delicious)
Please tell me the unit best to inherit their skill

Well, I feel like Jeorge and Innes do not have anyhing too worthwhile to throw out.
Maybe you can give Jeorge's spur speed to a unit that's always next to a speedy bait unit.
I would keep Innes just in case you get a better one/he gets a refine. There's nothing to gain from foddering him.

Soren has watersweep. One thing you could do with that is to give it to Sothe with a phantom speed seal and watch the debuffs do their work.

Lastly Dorcas with the amazing infantry pulse.
Really simple; your best, highest hp infantry unit. Get it on someone with at least 48 hp or something, put them on a team with strong infantry mages and watch the fireworks.

Hi Sir of Coffee. I have a question re: Infantry pulse.

I have a Dorcas I don’t use because I’m pretty stacked with strong Axe wielders as it stands. I do use my Nowi+2 a lot and don’t have any Dragon buff fodders - I also don’t use her in a Dragon team all that much.

She has an HP of 52, is it worth foddering Infantry pulse to her?

I have been using her in an Arena team with Raven, Sword User (Varies) & a mage (Rotating between Lewyn, Lute, Micaiah, Sanaki).

I also often replace the sword with L!Robin as I have her +4 & with the Cymbeline refine they syergise well.

Appreciate the help!

Yo Daario,

Yep, I think it's really simple: Nowi on a team with normal infantry doesn't have a 'need' C skill.
As long as you make sure she's the one on the team with the highest max hp, that shouldn't be hard.

You could give Sanaki glimmer with a quickend pulse seal, then she'll have a special ready at the start of a fight. Same would work for Micaiah as well.

Hope that helps.

I'll chime in.

The infantry pulse will be good for Lewyn, Micaiah, or Sanaki if any of them use special spiral because you can pre-charge a glimmer and just keep refreshing it using special spiral.

If your sword is a firesweep galeforcer or maybe B.Celica with galeforce, the infantry pulse is good. Otherwise, I don't think it will change much unless you're trying to get an aether off sooner.

Overall, I would try to get a little more value out of an infantry pulse by planning out an entire team for it, especially now that we have stuff like special spiral and Ophelia. Raven doesn't need the infantry pulse, and in most cases neither does your sword. Maybe save your IP fodder because the power of this skill tends to increase exponentially the more a team uses it, and you don't currently have a team that can exploit it to the maximum.

On a side note, I don't think I recommend special spiral for Micaiah. She activates brash desperation too easily using sacrifice; I think she's probably the best user of that combo for that reason and deserves the BA seal, of which we only have one each.

Ahhh sweetness! Thanks for the help/explanation. I have my Nowi equipped with an Aether but the others are pretty low charge specials. My Raven & Lewyn charge up almost every Attack as it runs now anyway.

I guess IP is more useful on teams with mages built with things like Glacies from what you’ve said & it would be more prudent to have it equipped in that regard.

Cheers!

Innes is pretty niche as fodder goes. Fortress res is the main sell. CA3 we can get from Mathilda, and that one is pretty niche too. Probably works on a unit that already has plenty of attack, can't use warding breath or wants to ploy, and doesn't enjoy DC/CC. However, if you don't have -spd he should be usable as an anti-mage in AA. Actually, even with -spd it can work, but it's even more awkward.

Soren's main fodder is watersweep. Not an easy skill to build with. It tends to go either on debuffers, usually daggers, and units like F.Corrin who can activate some kind of buff or debuff before fighting a bunch on enemy phase. One idea is the build I submitted to Saizo's page. You can find it through my profile.

Jeorge has very little fodder value. Consider 4* merging him.

Dorcas is mainly for infantry pulse. You can find my advice about this skill in my reply to Daario.

If you're decided you won't use any of these units, it's always an idea to make combat manuals out of them and figure out later who gets their skills.
