Soleil boon

I have both a +atk and a +spd Soleil, both of which are -res.
my build is LnD, chill spd, i'm thinking spd smoke for a c skill, and flashing blade.
she'll be plus 5 with either 63atk & 42spd, or 60atk & 45spd.

both are great but which is better per say ?

edit: with chill spd, even the likes or Karla, Mia or Celica wont pose much of a threat to her.

Speed.

If you are running her default Firesweep Sword, then I think that Spd is going to be the better boon to guarantee more doubles against a greater variety of units.

Speed, no matter the build

I went for a +atk-hp Soleil for better enemy phrase purpose and as an Armor unit slayer.
+spd is better if you stay on lower tier where 5*+10 is not common, but at top tier arena, Soleil’s spd advantage is marginal to say the least and IMO she’s the best sword unit to deal with +10 Armor units with armorsmasher which you see in pretty much every match at tier 20 and you will always double Armor units due to their low speed so that extra spd is redundant.

Wait what? +Spd is 'preferred' because she can reach high speed levels, thus doubling units that can't reach the speeds that she can. Armor Emblem is not the only team you'll see in high tiers of Arena.

And you gave her Distant Counter, so her 45 speed could be much better if you gave her a different A skill that actually boosted it.

I'm not trying to downplay your build or anything, but speed is definitely an important stat in high tier arena.

tbh, I don't use Soleil in arena due to her relatively low BST. I only use her in area when she's a bonus unit. Speed is important but not as important as you think especially if your goal is hitting 750+ per match, and none of those units with high BST requires a +spd build.

Her FS+ or any ultra player phase variant would prefer +spd. If you ask me how I built my Soleil, I actually went with +atk using spd slaying edge and Heavy Blade seal along with Brazen Atk/Spd and Wrath.

If using Firesweep, probably speed boon. 42 speed even with chill speed is kinda low to double reliably. They just need to have 45 speed and karla, ayra has no trouble reaching that. But if you have speed buffs like tactic then +atk will be alright.

I personally chose a +atk because I can push her stats to 65/48 and with speed tactics 65/54, by using speed armorsmasher, LnD, heavy blade, summoner support, even more if I use chill speed. It really depends on your build because her amazing statline makes it quite flexible to build around.
