One of my girls: Sophia

Hey there!

I think about changing the set of my Sophia, as the Raven Adept set has to fear CA (empty vessel Taco...). I'm currently running Raven Adept with Sword breaker, which is doing great, but I'd like to have an opinion to this one:

Raven-tome
Aether
Sturdy Stance
Axebreaker
QR seal

This aims to counter mage counters and kill them on defense. However, I don't know if I'd miss the player phase then, or the practically impenetrable bulk, so I need a second opinion here.

Steady Breath wouldn't be able to be inherited. I can count on one hand how many times I have seen CA being used(or archers for that matter), granted this is at higher scoring ranges(730+). The set you have is just fine.

Meant Sturdy Stance, sorry. Yeah, it's not that usual, but this is thought to be ran outside of arena too, where CA is a bit more common, despite very predictable.

I guess I'd not even get 730+ points with her, I'm around 720 in my best times.

I would say Distant Defense is better in most cases unless you plan on having her tank melee, if it is available. Otherwise Steady Stance is a nice fill in for it, but it doesn't help against mages.

Yeah, I see that...

Well, I thought her Atk might be a bit low, as I only have her on 4*+10, so 49 Atk with boon. With Sturdy Stance she gets 53 Atk and 33 Def, 31 Res.

My initial thought was Steady Stance too, but Sturdy Stance delivers more Atk and costs more SP. And I'm out of BK...

Now Distant Def is an option. I'd like her to tank axes sometimes, yes, but I guess that's ok. However, do you think her 49 Atk are enough to kill the likes of Deirdre?

Some builds of Deirdre are actaully going to survive even through a +atk/sturdy stance build(including common ones such as +res/-def or hp with fury). Sophia does not come out well in any scenario either, sitting in the teens for hp. Distant Defense adding +2 res doesn't help out there either.

Another option is to run QR seal to double vs ranged, keep swordbreaker to double swordlords, and then use dist def in the A-slot to tank better vs ranged. If she can double units, she doesn't need to get her atk to 50+. This way CA-colorless won't bother you much but still keep your KO potential vs other units.
