Should I invest into a Palla

I recently got a 3* +Spd -Hp Palla,and I wanted to know if she is worth investing in for a Flier Emblem (my only red is H!Nowi), or if there are better IVs (or units) I should wait for

Unfortunately, Palla is generally outclassed by the other strong sword fliers like Elinica and NY Camilla, and Caeda competes for the slot better than her when it comes to a budget-friendly option because of her useful prf weapon that covers both cavalry and armors which is very valuable in the current meta.

No, Palla is by far the worst red flier. Just stick with Halloween Nowi. The only red flier that is a strict improvement over H!Nowi would probably be Elincia, but you could make cases for Caeda and NY!Camilla. In relation to flier mages, you could hold out for Summer Corrin, who has the best statline to run a bladetome of the flier mages.

I have a 5* Palla that I made to somewhat "finish" my Flier Emblem team...

I regret every single feather and skill inheritance I put into her.

Sure, with a Ruby Sword+ she can "somewhat" tank green units, but her attack isn't really all that great, same with her speed. Brave Sword lets her hit two times, but her attack is just... not high enough.

I'm sure there's a way to make her "viable" but the way I have her, she's practically useless aside from giving my other flier units the Goad Flier buff. She'll be Skill Inheritance fodder at some point unless she gets a weapon refinement.

If you already have given everyone Goad Fliers that needs it, it's safe to make her a 4*+10 since she doesn't appear as 5*. She used to be the best red flier by a thin margin, but since Elincia and refinement she's gotten pushed to the bottom.

Back when Ruby Sword was still a thing I made mine a 5* and she sat pretty comfortably on my Flier Emblem. Things are different now though, nowadays she uses Wao Dao and Vantage as a niche red duelist.

She's not trash tier, but certainly lacking a bit. Her optimal statline is only a few points different from Shareena but Palla has the edge with 4* merging potential.

Report

I say definitely. Those are perfect IVs for Palla, and she can do well with minimal investment. (Slaying Edge+ or Wo Dao+, fury, and desperation go great on her)

And seeing as you don't have another sword flier, this further justifies using her.

Believe me, y'all are sleeping on Palla's potential.

Report

Everyone has potential, even Odin. It's just a question of who is worth the investment, of which Palla isn't, especially with a set that NY!Camilla runs better.

Okay, I lied, no amount of investment can save Odin, but still.

Report

I'd say -Res is more favorable, that's what mine is. She barely survives some physical encounters as is, yet even with -Res she can tank a Fae or Myrrh and kill on retaliation.

I also prefer using Vantage on her (yes I know it's best on DC units) as it lets her initiate then have a charged Moonbow with Wao Dao waiting on enemy phase.

Everyone should had a red flier but Palla isnt the only option anymore. For red fliers she's still "the worst" but really she's not bad at all. I now prefer my Caeda but still use Palla, I just wish I made my Palla 4*+10 instead of giving so many Moonbows away.

Report

She is honestly just "meh", she has a similar problem to Sword Corrin, in that her stats are way to balanced to have any specific role, but she can honestly do whatever you need her to, Flier Emblem fixes her problems anyways.

Report

Really with -Res her statline is almost the same as Shareena

Palla's -Res (top)
42/31/31/28/23
43/32/32/29/22
Shareena's (bottom)
Pallas has no superboon so whatever stat will get +3

Report

Sadly, she is generally outclassed by other red fliers

I’d just wait and stick with H! Nowi as red coverage for now

Any other fliers are workable (recommend getting Elincia or NY! Camillia, maybe IS will introduce some new red fliers)

Build her if you really need / want her, I think she’s fine, and can work just as great

Report

Here's my Palla, her IV's are +Atk/-Res and she's on my main Flier Team. I was originally going to give her a Wo Dao but never got around to it and with the influx of powerful new green units like Myrrh, LA!Hector, and G!Robin I've stuck with her Ruby Sword.

She's pretty good with this set, she can tank and kill all green units with ease and duel sword units like Ayra pretty reliably too. This goes without saying, but if you decide to use her you should pair her with Hone/Fortify/Goad flier users for the best results.
