PA Shigure weapon?

I pulled my first PA Shigure (+spd/-hp) during the legendary banner and I've started leveling him up, but which weapon would be best for him?

Blarowl is always useful, but he might not always be near people when he needs it.
Blarblade is powerful, of course, but he's not exactly a potent attacker.
Blarserpent and its dd3 effect sounds really appealing, and I have a spare Morgan laying around.
There's always Blarraven. Type advantage is always a good choice.
And I still have a pair of bad iv Valentine's Lyn laying around, so I could give him Blue Gift and get that sweet bonus canceling effect.
Or I could just stick with his Dancer's Score.

What do you guys think?

blarserpent is a somewhat big investment as a defensive tome. if you really like PA!Shigure, you can use blarserpent. otherwise, you can save it for a better defensive blue mage and give him blarraven + bowbreaker to counter bows and take red mages. personally, I'd choose blarraven since it's easier to get.

Just stick with Dancer's score if you're unsure, he can be a potent support ally with it. Give him Wings of Mercy so if one of his friends is below half health, he can nyoom in and attack a nearby enemy so his friend can restore health, or dance for his friend to get them out of danger.

If you want him to do some combat, Blarraven with Triangle Adept.is always a great choice for dancers to mitigate their low BST.
If you don't want him to fight, stick with Dancer's Score, and maybe add Watersweep on him so you can get free healing for your teammates.
Blarrowl might work if you surround him, and Blarserpent might work too.
Don't use Blarblade or Blue Gift. Blue Gift is kinda niche, and PA Shigure is not an attacker.
I mostly reccomend Blarraven or Dancer's Score.

Well, Bladetome units don't really need to focus on their attack stat too much. The most important stat for Bladetome units (aside from someone like Lilina) is speed for doubling.

The problem with P!Shigure is that both of his defenses are low, supporting 21 base defense and 24 base resistance, as well as 32 speed, is not really helping in avoiding death unless you're building him to be purely enemy phase + dancer.

As for what you're wanting to give him, it's mostly dependent on what you need on your team. Do you need an offensive mage, or do you need someone more defensive to tank a hit or two from ranged units? Blarserpent is definitely a good skill for tanking, especially if you're doing Blarserpent + Distant Defense A + Distant Defense Seal, giving a whole 18 (it gives +6 right?) defense and resistance when attacked from a distance, issue with this is his speed. He'll probably be doubled (unless you can buff up his speed stat) by any ranged unit that battles him.

Of course, Bladetome can work if you give him something like Fury/Life and Death and a Speed +3 seal.
