What skills would you like to see be demoted?

The question is in the title. Overall, enemy phase units need a common, reliable A-slot skill in my opinion. Steady and Warding Stance come to mind for me (I can only dream about Close and Distant Defense). What else would everyone like to see?

Quick Riposte, CD and DD.

We can only dream about CC and DC.

I'd like the "-Bond" skills to be demoted, specifically the Atk/Res Bond or Spd/Res Bond.

Or Swift Sparrow...

The Bond skills would be excellent! They're very useful and not quite premium grade in my opinion like Steady and Warding Breath. From units like Fallen Robin to an Owl Tome mage, they work very well for enemy (sometimes player) phase units.

Bond skills(please IS), i love Fury, but i'm tired of putting this in half of my heroes =/

Same! I hate having to try to save up so many Hinata's because there really is no good *alternative* to Fury that's readily available.

The stances need to be demoted( and have better avalibilty) the chill skills( maybe not as they are new, and pretty good) Quick Riposte(def) and prob a few bonds and double blows.

Unfortunately I doubt that will ever happen with CD and DD since we have the seals. Realistically, I am pretty sure Shiro will get demoted at some point giving us Steady Stance and allowing a single BIke to give both Steady Breath and Aether. I think we'll see some "Bond" skills added to the 4* pool. I also predict some future iterations or availability of the "[element] Boost" skills with an HP check, or new skills with HP checks. Or optimistically, maybe they will add some sort of "Brazen" skills to the 4* pool.

I want double boost skills, like Earth/Fire boost 2

Which gives either +3 or +4 to said stats

4 is better, the HP requirement is already a drawback

Not a chance with the Brazen Skills. They're honestly way too good. Only 70% HP requirement, adds +7 to not one but two stats, combat buff so it stacks. It would have way too good of synergy with Desperation for blade tome units. Amazing synergy with Vantage too.

most premium skills obviously. quick reposte, swift sparrow, distant counter, close counter, wrath, any breath skill, any bond skill, and any chill skill. any one of those getting demoted would be great.

Out of that list, Close Counter, Bond skills, Quick Riposte, maybe the chills, maybe wrath(or another user of wrath) and swift sparrow could be demoted

really surprised swift sparrow and quick riposte haven't been demoted yet since they've been around so long. Wrath desperately needs to be on more than just neph as well.

The ones that REALLY need to be demoted are the double stat boosters. (Atk/Spd 2, Def/Res 2, etc.) So far all of them are on either seasonal units or 5 star exclusives. (One's on Nanna, and I'm pretty certain she'll be demoted, but still.) They are quite weak in comparison to really any other A slot skill, and healers make the most use out of them, but we have to sack a 5 star in order to give someone a minor stat boost.

Even if they just made new 3 and 4 star units using relatively obscure heroes and pasted these on, I'd be fine. They just don't really need to be in the 5 star pool.

QUICK RIPOSTE. I mean, c'mon IS, it's been available since release. Even Life and Death got demoted.

Also, Live to Serve. It's nearly essential for healers, but is still locked behind 5* Elise or Wrys.

Swift Sparrow for sure. But we could also always use more 4 star Fury and L&D fodder.
Really what I want to see most in the 4 star pool are Brazen skills. Brazen Atk/Spd in particular, it's a great skill but it is seldom used due to it's extreme exclusivity.

QR for sure and at least the 2nd level of the stance skills should made available at 4 stars like the Blow skills.
