Quick stupid Hrid team questions

Would you rather team up definitely-not-ice-hector with Gunnthra or Veronica?

I figured that the 2 Nifl horses would like to hang out together since they both bless wind units and work off debuffs.

>Should I give my Gunnthra Fortify Cavs? Hrid would get hone cavs from The Reinhardt and he would really appreciate his bulk to be boosted to absurd levels.

Bonus question: Is giving Gunnthra harsh command for reversing Aversa debuffs worth it in Aether Defense? Would you rather kill a Saizo or Claire for it?

Why not both? Although personally I'm using a team with Hríd, Gunnthra, S!Linde and Camus. Why Linde and not my Veronica? Because why not? Go against the norm a little bit. Although practically speaking Veronica is probably the better choice vs Linde due to also being a healer.

Here's the AR defense map.
They are all running their base kit (with some random special and C skill on Smolzura) / standard Reinhardt build.

If I had to choose, probably Gunnthra because Veronica is more flexible to use on other teams instead. But I have all three in the same team.

If you're using Veronica, she can provide visible buffs with her staff so it might be better to use wards & goads which can stack. If you're not, Fortify on Gunn sounds good.
Edit: If you're talking exclusively about aether defence, then yeah just go with fortify because the AI is too dumb to position things to use Veronica buffs and goads right.

Bonus: No because Aversa also Panics, and Harsh Command doesn't cure status effects. So the 'debuffs' would turn into 'buffs' but panic would make the 'buffs' reduce your stats anyway.
You could give Veronica Restore+ to counter Aversa.

I find that Hrid and Gunnthra's chill skills can be redundant. Since they target def and res, it could end up affecting the same unit, for example a glass cannon with LnD.

Veronica is more annoying to deal with too since a lot of people like baiting, and she makes that much harder to do. She could also run restore if you have the feathers to spare.
