Quick question

Who would you guys recommend

Sophia with slightly less overall bulk but trades it in for more attack
Or
Henry with far less attack but more overall bulk

I'm leaning more towards Sophia but I also like the idea of building Henry

I plan to give them both pretty much the same build just different Special Bonfire on Henry, Iceberg on Sophia, Candelabra with res on Henry and Def on Sophia both with CC, Guard, ploy Atk, QR seal

Personally, which one do you like more?
If I would have to build Sophia or Henry I would pick OBVIOSLY Sophia since she is my favorite character from FE6 (maybe Shanna too)

I built her with Fury 3 and Ravetome. Maybe I should use Triangle Adpet but already have Sanaki with that build and Lyon.

Statistically wouldn't the reverse on Henry be better because Res is a superboon? Refine for Def with a Res boon.

I'm doing +Def on Sophia and +Res on Henry, those where the refine for Candelabra with which Henry ends with 36/36 at 5*+10 without counting the +2 in all stats from Candelabra and Sophia ends up with 35/36, but Henry ends up with more HP and Sophia ends up with more Attack

Most of the comments here are going to be biased, as there are some people have fully built Henry and Sophia (myself). It really depends on preference, you can build a Sophia with OwlTome to increase damage output or build a Henry with Atk smoke for maximising his Def.

Also another note. Is this for arena? I think the current best red mage for arena is Morgan M. He works great as a support with his weapon and won't KO much if you don't build him to. He's also adorable for bonus points. While he is slightly more difficult to get merges he is in the 4 star pool. Something to consider/

I'm just building a Infaltry team using only units from the 3-4* poll and wanted a unit for each type and color, Dragon, Melee, Mage, Range, My Team is F.Corrin and Setsuna both at 5*+10, Barst who I'm currently working on since I have a few copies of him already, and Sophia/Henry depending on who I go with

I plan to make a 5*+10 with only 3-4* units for every movement type working with what I can do aka since no Dragon special movement in 3-4* and the only Colorless special movement are 5* exclusive or seasonal (besides Cav with 2 healers) units I'll have to just go all melee with Cav being the only one with a Mage on the team

This actually helps because now Sophia seems redundant when you already have FCorrin. If I had to choose I would pick Henry out of the 2 of them. But in terms of use I think Morgan would be better because he'd have decent damage/bulk and is a great support for Setsuna to use (maybe Barst I have no idea what his stat spread is). Lilina ofc is another obvious one meaning you probably already decided on not using her.

Report

But like I said I'm only using units in the 3-4* poll to show my love for them since and easier to get so Morgan is a no go, Lilina is a different story, I am building her but I wanna use units with no prf weapons other wise I'd got with Raven over Barst, my Barst I plan to get a +Spd -Res btw

Report

I'm just thinking you don't have a lot of characters with offensive pressure. Barst looks kind of meh in that department and Setsuna I can guarantee will probably be the one killing everything. There's also Tharja for what it's worth.

Report

I mean you're not wrong Quadsuna pretty much kills everything she targets, but I need a res tank and Henry and Sophia are really the only ones that can get a good amount of res and still be a mix tank with the requirements that I'm aiming for
