Should I save or abandon my Thunder Goddess?

Hi everyone. After going on a mini whaling spree, I managed to pull Ishtar on the BHB banner but . . . she came with +HP and words of all -Atk!! 😨 What can I do?! She is best with a neutral Atk or +Atk. I don't want to fodder her as my summoning luck has run dry and I want to save what little Orbs I have for the new banner coming in a few days. What skills can I use? Seals? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Definitely save.
Ishtar's strength comes from her speed, if it's neutral, then her attack can be worked around. Remember that with Mjolnir, Moonbow/Luna, 36 base speed, and Swift Sparrow, Ishtar will be doubling a majority of the roster, an atk bane will not be felt severely, I think. If it is, keep a +Atk seal on her.
I really don't think a bane like that should stop you from committing to Ishtar though, especially since she's not very expensive to build and remains a powerhouse unit in spite of that.

Though I hate to say it, you can also consider a Blarblade (ugh) build, but it's a standard workaround for low attack/high speed mages (Righteous Knight Olwen, for example, who sits at 30 neutral atk)

Blade tombs drive me crazy! They rely on team mates buffing the unit with the tomb, don't give the unit any boons outside of the damage increase and to top it off they don't have any weapon refinery. I personally think they are a waste of time and shity weapons.

First, how many orbs do you have left? Second you could give her ATK 3 S.S. that would nuetralize her bane.

3. So yeah, I'm definitely going to keep her and probably skip the Halloween banner. I'll allocate the Orbs I gain along the away to the Legendary Banner. Per your suggestion, I added the Attack +3 Seal so she should be alright.

If I were you I would consider sacrificing a Mae to her for desperation 2, and play her with base kit until she came again with better IVs, at which point I could fodder the first.

I definitely will add Desperation since I do have the feathers and an extra Mae in my barracks. I will not fodder her and instead wait to merge her for better IVs. I'll take whatever I can get.
