Lancina: I prefer either Swordbreaker or Renewal 3. There are very, very few lance users in Arena to begin with, and the common ones are slower than her. With Swordbreaker, she guarantees kills against big Arena threats like Black Knight before he can build a Black Luna, Ryoma before he hits Vantage, Brave Roy, Sigurd, and Ayra. In addition, Ike makes short work of blue physical units.

Ike looks fine. I prefer Vantage (or Beoric's Blessing just for Arena scoring).

Lyn is fine for a Firesweep build.

If you swap Lancina over to be the Swordbreaker wielder, you can run Desperation on Roy, which is a better fit for him overall.

Thank you for the advice/reply. Lucina with Swordbreaker sounds really good in retrospect. Though wouldn't I want to keep Swordbreaker on Roy for the same reasons?

Report

Roy doesn't have fantastic defenses (esp since yours is -DEF) and coupled with Fury's recoil damage he'll drop out of Swordbreaker range pretty quickly. Not only that, but with Lancina on the team a Roy for swords is redundant. Because of this, he's much better off with a Desperation set.

Also, may I ask why you're running a Firesweep set on Lyn? While she can certainly run it, Sacae's blessing and her good RES (even with Life and Death) does basically the same job.

Alright I'll switch Roy over to Desperation 3. As for the Firesweep Bow in addition to Cancel Affinity 3 it is mostly a concession to Raven Tome users like PA Inigo, Lilina, and the Robins.

That makes sense! I use CA archers a lot too and it definitely comes in handy.

Though keep in mind that since they have TA, B!Ike, B!Roy, and Lancina will be able to mostly eat up a hit from their respective triangle disadvantage as well ;)

Hmmm your probably right about the whole Lucina lancebreaker thing. I generally run that and I guess I never really payed attention to the lack of lance users in the arena atm. I was thinking though that maybe Lucina could run drag back as a sort of insurance of a kill. If she doesn't kill a unit she would move it hypothetically in range of another? Idk I've never really used that skill on her beforee

I have Draw Back to diversify my movement options. Also since Lucina had a spur skill it allows me to pull a character in to bait with and still get all of her buffs. It has been working pretty well.
