A storm is brewing (or which unit is best for Galeforce)

Ssssssssoooooo, while trying to summon for a S!Tiki on the Sketchy Summer banner, I got a second Lyn from it. My first one already had bad IVs (-spd +def), but since Def is a superboon, I think it's not that bad. This one, however, is worse, since it's -atk +def, with Atk being a superbane of all things. Which means I have a spare Galeforce. Which unit would profit the most from a skill like that? My first guess would be Ayra, since her Weapon comes with a built-in Flashing Blade 3 (plus, the seal that's coming next TT. Can it stack?), so I'm sure she'd profit a lot from it. Do you have better Ideas or is Ayra pretty much the best choice?

L! Ephraim, Brave+Bold armours, Firesweepers are what come to mind. And maybe a Galeforce WT!Reinhardt if you wanted to.

And Arya is better off with Regnal Astra.

Wait, aren't only melee units allowed to run Galeforce?Or do you mean WT!Reinhardt?

Forgot that. Then WT! Reinhardt.

-Spd Lyn isn't a bad IV set though. o.O

No cooldown accelerators stack. At the moment there is no way to gain more than 2 charges from any hit from either side. Galeforce Ayra is unorthodox and potentially good; however, I don't recommend it over Regnal Astra unless you don't care about anything besides doing something unusual.

A better candidate is Karla, whose prf adds additional damage which compensates for her special not doing extra damage.

Several of the lance fliers are good with galeforce - Shigure, Cordelia, even Clair if you buff her attack enough or use her mainly against cavalry and armours. The same goes for Caeda, because Clair and Caeda can have flashing blade on their weapons.

Other strong candidates are Raven, whose prf has a cooldown accelerating effect (so he can galeforce even in desperation range), and Soleil. Both of these two hit extremely hard and fast and often win without damage from specials. Soleil will need either slaying edge or an infantry pulse (because she'll be using heavy/flashing blade seal) or dance/song if she wants to activate galeforce in her first turn. If you use Ostia's Pulse, brave axe Cherche is also a reasonably good candidate for galeforce with heavy blade seal because she, too, hits ridiculously hard despite brave axe being 8mt.

Cordelia as galeforce why waste a 5* exclusive... do whatever you want but..

Because Lyn isn't really a unit I use, so merging is out of the question. And Galeforce is the only good skill she has, that's why. I know Cordelia has it, I'm not stupid. But I only have one and I'd like to keep her, since I'm not going to pull blues for a while and she has decent IVs
