What units appreciate LnD the most?

I've gotten a few 4* Sothe's of late, with IVs that might as well be neutral. I didn't want to fodder off the only one I had as I've had trouble with defeating enemies with a dagger unit quests without him, although I started building a +atk/-hp 4*+4 Felicia so we'll see if she can do alright next time the quest roles around. But with the extra Sothe, he'll likely end up as LnD fodder. So I was curious what units to keep an eye out for that get the best usage out of LnD? I think the only unit I use frequently that has LnD already is my +spd Lucina.
Thanks in advanced for any suggestions!

LnD is good on Lucina but with her falchion refinement it made her out to be more of an enemy phase unit now since you'd want to take advantage of that Bond Spectrum refinement. Therefore LnD might not be wise on her unless you don't exactly care for it and would rather just want more speed with a +spd refinement.

Try saving your LnD for now unless you're absolutely sure you want it on Lucina.

Maybe I didn't word it right. My Lucina already has LnD from a while back so she is the one character Sothe won't be foddered to, so I was more curious what other units might benefit from it? And I've found even with her refine that LnD has been fine, but she's mainly used for PvE and I don't have characters like Ayra or Mia to compete for a similar role.

Hold onto it then, some of the 40-something units that got demoted can benefit off this skill, or if you manage to get a unit like Soleil, if you don't have her she's great when paired with Firesweep sword+

Report

Soleil, Elincia, Cordelia, Brave Lyn, Brave Roy, Bride Cordelia, Nino, Sonya, Tharja, Rhajat, Summer Corrin

Pretty much any Unit that has good atk and spd, and poor defensive stats anyway, or cant get hit back

Is Fury or LnD better on Nino? I have a 4* Nino I think +spd (if not +atk but I think that's one of the 3* Nino without any investment) which currently has Fury and I should really give her desperation now that I have like 29k feathers and a couple 3* Shannas. Also interesting idea but what about +atk/-res Nameless Blade Fir with LnD replacing Fury and then Threaten Def replacing Def Ploy, her B skill is swordbreaker currently?

In my opinion, Fury is a lot better on Nino than LnD. I've used both LnD and Fury on her (she's probably my favourite char from the series so I invest into her) and have had much better success with Fury. Nino's res isn't that bad, and buffed by Fury, it also even lets her tank some Reinhardts (depending on buffs and merges). Fury also gets her into desperation range faster. +Spd is better on Nino, as her bladetome means her attack doesn't matter as much. I cleared the most recent chain challenge on infernal with her, Barblade Linde, Ephraim as a buff bot, and an Olivia. Nino carries me.

As for the Fir, honestly personal preference on how much you like her as a character. Otherwise, statwise, you'd probably be better off investing in a Soleil when you get the right IVs, who can act as a pseudo-Mia if you give her Wo Dao +spd, Luna, and a heavy blade seal. Mine is +2 merged (+spd -res) and has a 43/58/47/24/16 statline. LnD wants to be given to any glass canon characters who never want to be used on enemy phase and already has below average defenses.

Firesweep Archers, but really any firesweep user that should never be taking a hit can make amazing use of it.

Why does Firesweep Bow have to only be available through a 5* exclusive unit, who also I think prefers Guard Bow more than Firesweep any? Although I have a sever bad luck case with good bows in general. My best bows are neutral LA!Roy, who I honestly just don't like using all that much not sure what it is about him exactly, and +res/-hp 4* Jeorge.

Report

I also like the guard bow, it's fun to build around; but the guard bow is useful on fewer archers. Leon, Innes, Jakob, and Takumi are probably the bulkiest. There are a lot of archers that are fast enough to run an effective Firesweep build, even lower damage archers like Rebecca and Faye can use it pretty well with a special like Luna.

Report

FS Weapon users are prime candidates; Cordelia Tana Elinica Soleil most any fast archer etc.
Quad attackers that rely on speed over Desperate Assault as well if you want to do that.
Mage Nukers can use it though Fury is usually the safer choice, L&D isn't totally needed for them. With the exception of Celica; if you use her you are using L&D.
One last category would be glass cannons who need some help with being glassier and cannonier; Brave Roy comes to mind.

Believe it or not, I gave it to a +atk/-Def(will replace with +atk/-Res when I get it) Laslow. He's a 4*+10, built with a speed boosting Armorsmasher.
with a physical bulk of 73, and a magical bulk of 69(those numbers include his significant 50 HP), and a non-honed speed of 37, he's actually pretty darn tough to knock down, and with 59 atk, ever Blue armors fear getting hit by him.
