Palla's weapon

Have seen people freaking out about it. As if it makes her fully useless.
Let me ask this;
How often do you want Palla to take on blue units?

She ain't got the atk or def to get over the triangle disadvantage anyway. So it hardly curbs her potential.
Now, I agree when you say that the effect isn't ideal. But that hardly translates to utter thrash.

I feel people seem allergic to TA.

It doesn't make her useless, but a Triangle Adept on a PRF is not something everyone wants. People hated it on Titania. People hated it on Alfonse. People hate it on Palla.

People hate it on Alfonse BECAUSE of the fact that it's his eff refine, like he has the Atk to kill blue's and the Def to tank physical Blue units, he had so much potential for a good eff but that's why most go with Atk or Def refine on it since it's just so much better. He never had any problem dealing with Green units at all

Sometimes you can survive 1 hit with triangle disadvantage or reverse the triangle with a special ready. The TA effect just make her worst imo.

Whats the refine on top of it? ( checked this already)
( i also allergic to TA, i feel like saveguard is best weapon for her now)
EDIT Palla has the stats to be more than "green check" but IS did what they did.

Im allergic to TA on everyone who isnt a dancer because I try to break the triangle with half the units I use. Most people dont like it because it just doesnt add as much because it compliments winning MUs typically. And it gets rid of her blue fighting potential. Say if she had an armorslaying effect like Est got, she would be able to kill Surtr and then more.

Having a generalized statline, spectrum buff, and ability to receive flier buffs, I feel like she's actually quite well-suited to taking on blues. I don't agree with your assessment that she doesn't have the atk or the def to pull it off. 31 base atk + 16mt weapon + 4 from weapon effect + fury (for a less flavourful version) + 8 because the two nearby flying allies are probably goading her = 62 atk. By the way, 46 spd behind it so if you're not built to block doubles from Ayra, you're probably going to get quadded into a luna or even a dragon fang on 62 atk.

And 32 def is nothing to sneeze at when she has 45 HP and a possible ward or fortify.

All of this without merges. She definitely has LOTS of potential to obliterate blues if not for TA. She definitely lost a significant amount of potential due to TA because with 62 atk and 46 spd and brave effect, she's winning pretty easily against greens that aren't Surtr.

You may have a point.
I do think there's merrit in her using TA to take on greens, there are more super strong ones than Surtr, but a slayer effect wouls indeed be better.

I do think though that this hardly makes Palla a 'bad' unit. If you're running Palla, you should have a good green unit. And given the effect of triangle attack, the green shouldn't be far from Palla anyway.

It doesn't break Palla

Palla just became the green Slayer Nothing survive her only counter would be cancel Affinity, Who run it????? Nobody, She kill now every green Armor too.
But Est on other Hand just became Blue Alm only different she get Bonus to kill Armor and Hell yes no 100% HP Requirement.
Think Est is now t2. Palla T3 atleast. Catria can run actually many dangerous builds now Need to check more first Impression t2 too.
