Underrated units you promoted to 5*?

What are some of your favorite units you promoted? what set did you run on them?

I feel like underrated units are a great way to get value out of your 4*, especially if you don't invest money into the game.

I really like horse emblem Frederick, he doesn't get alot of attention but i think he's a pretty solid unit, especially with buffs. I'm waiting for a brave axe+ before i promote him tho.

I'm also considering promoting:
+atk/-res Lukas (maybe giving him steady breath, but might give it to black knight)
+spd/-hp M corrin
and +spd/-res lon-qu for a quad build

Back in February, my first 20.000 feathers went to Eliwood, who sadly just got recently replaced by his own son, but I'm sure I'll still use him ocasionally.

Luckily, he turned out to be -res +spd, even though I didn't know about IVs when I promoted him.

Hehehe, my first 20k went to Azama, i just love his attitude. :D

He is +def-atk, and holds Pain staff, so he is doing pretty good, its hard to kill him even with 55atk and doubling.

I'm still planning on Felicia, who is one of my favourite characters in the franchise despite being from one of the poorest done games in the series, but I just don't summon from colourless enough to get her, let alone one with good IVs.

I don't know if this counts, but I've also done Anna and Sharena, who have become two of my best supportive units so far, and I'm now planning on Alfonse since Wrath came out.

Finally, Berkut is currently my most underrated unit which I still promoted to 5 star, and due to circumstances, he's actually one of the most heavily inherited units I have as well.

I made a deal with the devil and I'm on my way to a +10 Wrys eventually. He's only +2 now, but one day he'll stomp his opponents.

Definitely Merric. Can't be stated enough how useful an anti-flier tome is, especially with all the p2w summer/spring fliers are amuck in tier 19. Even S supported him and he's almost on every major team I have now.

I spent a ton of featers on my Odin I run a Blade set with him and I love his attitude

Since even feathers are limited ressources for F2P, I didn't use that many to promote unoptimal heroes.

When I was missing a decent green unit / blue check, I thought of upgrading a Narcian to 5 Stars. Maybe I'll do it someday. Even if his stat spread is not great, I find him efficient at his role (slaying blues). Also he's classy and crazy, which I like.

I don't know if you think of Fae as an underrated unit, but I promoted her to 5Stars recently. She's a great Rein / Blue Mage / blue in general counter. Lightning Breath works wonders on her.

Now I'm also hesitating on a Roy. He's so cute and kind of bulky for a red lord.

Also I'm planning on a Valter. Not sure if he's underrated or totally broken :)

Finally I'll probably one day prepare a TA Boey. Love his Ignis *_*

Yup, a fully builded lonzu with brave sword +, L&D3, Desesperation3, Threathen speed3 and Galeforce.

I've spent over 80k feathers in this lonzu and i don't regret nothing about it

Coming from someone who uses a 5 star Lukas with one of his shittiest IVs
(+Spd, -Atk). I'm gonna say promote that Lukas! Those are his best IVs.

+2'd Valter, while he isn't really underrated, I rarely see him in Arena.
5*'d Draug back when there were only 3 really viable Armored Units I went for a +SPD, Darting Blow, Brave Sword Meme Build.
5*'d Clarisse, since I like her Bow. Didn't build her yet.
5*'d & built Michalis. I like this flying Tank :D Unfortunately he isn't that versatile and I rarely use him outside of Arena Assault/ Tempest Trials.

My first replay was eaten, so I'm trying again.

I agree w/ Frederick! Mine is 4*+9, fully built, just waiting on the + version of Br.Axe before 5* promotion.

Months ago, leading up to the second (?) TT, I pulled a 4* Boey. I didn't know about IVs then, but I know now he's +Res/-HP. He was also the only 40% bonus unit I had for the TT, so I 5* him. Fast forward to now - I just spent the last weekend grinding SP to give him TA3, QR2, Gronnraven+. He's my BLyn and Rein counter.

Also, I've been merging Gaiuses w/ the plan to eventually promote him to 5*. He was my fave character in Awakening, and I was so excited to get his summer version with great IVs (+Atk/-HP). His summer version runs BB+, LaD, Desp. His regular version is 4*+4 +Atk/-Res, and I plan to run him with LaD3, Desp, Poison Dagger+. I'm just waiting for a +Atk/-HP before I promote, tho.
