So, 240 orbs and Unit Advice

Went nuts and blew 240 orbs on the new banner for Olivia, I'm now broke. Got 2 Sumia, both -Spd +Def (QR and enemy phase is fine), +Def -Res Maribelle (meh), my first Lene (+HP -Def, wrong red dancer but alright I suppose) and my 1st and 2nd Lutes, one's +Res -Atk and the other +Def -HP. Also got +Atk -Spd 3* Fae which is pretty optimal for her.

Point 1: Olivia! Where are you?
Point 2: Which Lute? She'd be keeping going for a ploy set with a default A skill of Fury so I'm leaning towards +Res -Atk but -Atk is always off putting so do I go +Def. Any thoughts?
Point 3: I have a 5*+3 Fae with +HP -Spd which is great for Panic Ploy but +Atk would be better. Worth promoting the 3* when I have Myrrh and Kana and don't use Fae much?

I mean, the amount of 5* is pretty good for the orbs spent, but the number of pity breakers is a bit too high, so that's a FeelsBadMan.

As for Lute, I'm really unsure. The +res -atk IV is definitely not a bad choice, but 40 res could even be considered slightly overkill for ploy purposes and mage tanking won't really be a thing if she has fury. If you want to go with the more offense-oriented route (with fury+desp), the missing 3 dmg (6 if you double) can sometimes mean the difference between life and death. I'm finding pros and cons for both versions...I don't know. I guess if you want fury + desperation, then go for the -hp version.

If you are using the -spd version of Fae, it might be better to max out her defensive stats, which is why +def -spd would be the better choice over +atk imho. If you don't use Fae that much and don't want to max merge her anymore, then just don't bother and don't waste the feathers.

Fury's mentioned as it's the default A skill for so many. I have other stuff I could give her to go defensive while my blades and Lynde go for offensive, I've a couple Performing Olivia for DD which might suit her better. For Fae I'd say you're probably right about the +Def being better for her.

DD sounds like a good skill for Lute. I guess it will depend on more factors tho. I'll share my thought process on this, if I was in your situation:

1) Check all my infantry blue mages
2) See what blue mage role am I missing or which is not represented enough: for example, I have Tailtiu for blade, Micaiah for mage tank/effective dmg and Saias for ploying.
3) In this case I'm missing a non-blade tome offensive mage, so I would in fact go for the +def -hp fury+desp build. If I lacked a mage tank/ploy mage, I would opt for +res so that her overall survivability wouldn't be hindered by the loss of hp.
