Who are some of the best users of infantry PULSE? Please help

To be perfectly clear I do mean infantry PULSE and NOT infantry RUSH. Today I pulled an extra Dorcas as my free summon from one of the summer banners. His IVs are pretty meh (-HP +RES) and I'm not too fond of the character anyway so I decided to fodder him for infantry pulse. The question is: Who is the best user of infantry pulse? My top 5 infantry units with the highest HP stat are Nowi HP=52 (with refined LB), Alm (+HP -ATK) HP=51 (will most likely be merged if I get another Alm), Ninian (+HP -ATK) HP=51 (with refined LB), Lucina HP=52(SS) and Fae HP=50 (with refined LB)
The dragons mentioned above are mostly used together for a dragon team so I think I'd want to give them dragon related c-skills
As for Alm and Lucina I'm not too sure about either. I will most probably merge Alm if I get another one, putting him under 50HP and Lucina only breaks 50 with Summoner Support so if I ever support anyone else (most likely not) she'll also be under 50.
But if I had to pick out of the 5 mentioned above, I'd probably give it to Lucina.
What do you guys think? Should I give it to Lucina? Or is there someoneelse who can better put infantry pulse to better use? I'd appreciate the help. Thank you in advance!

I don't think it's worth giving IP to one of your dragons unless you intend to play them in a non-dragon team. Dragons don't tend to exploit infantry pulse especially well unless for some reason you have some funky build involving miracle.

Ja, infantry pulse needs a lot of strategizing, because it tends to increase power exponentially when you stack it with more infantry pulse and quick pulse and maybe shield pulse, etc. Who do you have in your barracks who might like to receive the extra charge at the start of a battle? Some mage? Ayra? (Then probably don't give it to your Falchion wielders)

On a side note, that's a good IV - the res is a superboon, and spd is the only stat that he prefers to drop rather than HP because he gets doubled so much. I have -spd +def but i actually run into some situations where a few extra points of speed can actually block a double against other slow units. If you give him distant def (seal or A-skill) he has 35/34 defenses, +6 vs archers and daggers, -6 vs dragons. If you give him a spd buff he doesn't get doubled by any Fae, Nowi, or even Y.Tiki that doesn't invest in spd. But if you're still not interested in him as a unit, I think it's correct to fodder him once you get him to lv40 for the catalogue.

In my opinion Infantry Pulse is too niche to fodder to any unit for general use. I run IP on Leif and Dorcas for my Arena Defense team (instant Draconic Aura on Lilina with Quickened Pulse, instant Moonbow on Harmonic Lance Azura, and instant Luna on Slaying Edge Leif with S Drink) but I normally switch Leif to Drive Atk on PvE content.

My point is that unless you have specific plans on how you want to use IP on a team, I would hold out on foddering it to anyone. It's a great skill and I like using it, but I would wait until inspiration strikes

Actually i think that +res is his best boon, even better than +atk, he has a superboon in res which brings him to 28, and that's a good res stat since he has a DC weapon
