Which EST to go with?

I have narrowed down the candidates amongst a few of the est I have to:

-hp+Spd
-hp+atk
-res+Spd

The goal is to make use of the refined Whitewing weapon for the brave effect and anti armor effectiveness with Spd and def ploy and fury paired with hit and run and iceberg

Or is there a better IV set/build for her that I haven’t considered that I should wait for?

If you are going to use Ploys, then I'd go +Res -HP. If you want more damage, then +Attack-HP. If you are considering doubles/firesweep, then go +speed -HP. It depends on her purpose within the team. Though you'd need some massive support to go +speed route.

Personally I don't think speed is a good IV on Est though. Better off with Attack or Res as the boon. HP bane is best as she needs her other stats.

Atk hp is perfect I want that one. I use atk def which is just about as nice

I would avoid dumping res. She can potentially ploy.

+Atk is the most straightforward; +spd can also be considered if you're trying to keep her atk down so she doesn't OHKO and fail to galeforce (but you want to be able to break 60 atk for heavy blade)

I'd go with +Spd. She gains a Brave effect when her Lance procs. Pair that up with a possible Desperation B skill, and she can Quad without the penalties of a an actual Brave Lance (low Mt, 5 less speed).

33 speed with a Hone Fliers' +6 speed, mixed with a Goad Fliers' +4 speed (since she'll want two fliers near her anyway). 43 speed, and that's before taking her own skills into account, like Fury, speed seals, etc.

The thing is that everything fast dies in two hits anyways with +atk. 63 atk with death blow 3, and then goads behind, we're talking over 70 atk which can one-round Surtr despite colour disadvantage. Fast tanks rarely have over 45 def and 50HP with it, and if they manage then they're probably armours.
