windsweep candidates?

pulled atk-hp+ alm and dont need his dragonkilling help so the only other thing he is useful for is his windsweep. who do i want to give windsweep to? does brave weapons still atk twice with windsweep?
gave my other alms windsweep to jaffar and WF hinoka. jaffar cos he was spd+ and built to chip. hinoka cos gave her LnD3 and is super fragile spd+res- superbane so cant tank a hit from armored units. basically a chip then GTFO build. but now i dunno who to give 3rd windsweep to. any units that can run one effectively, or have cool build ideas

Yes, Brave weapons still attack twice with Windsweep, "Attack twice"(you>you>enemy) is different from "consecutive attack"(you>enemy>you).

if you want to go with brave weapons then someone with atleast 35 spd(considering the -5 from brave weapon, which is enough to outspeed most units in the game.

from the 2 you mentioned it depends, with Jaffar he won't be counterattacked by mages and DC melee units.
with Hinoka she will have an easier time dealing with the DC armored units that is roaming around teir 20 as of late or just anywhere in general.
IMO go with Jaffar.

Jaffar and WF hinoka both already have windsweep. I was looking for the third candidate for wind. Gave hinoka windsweep cos she got one shotted by what I think was a atk+ +10 Legendary Hector who weirdly didn’t keep his vengeful fighter but had wary fighter. If I was gunna only hit once due to tanks having access to wary fighter, then why not just run windsweep-make myself only attack once deliberately-and not get destroyed as she only has 49 def bulk and 57 res bulk. Windsweep hinoka also stops her from dying to vengefulfighter armors cos my gawd if she can barely survive one hit with help of flier emblem buffs, how she gunna survive 2 if she doesn’t kill them in 2 hits

I mean.. any unit that has high speed can make use of Windsweep. Buffer/Debuffer units, in my opinion, are the best users for the skill since it actually gives them a use aside from "attack once and be done with it" like most other units would be if they had it.

Any fast dragon with Light or Dark Breath.
Any dagger unit
Any bow unit with Clarisse's Bow or Cupid's Arrow
M!Morgan

Those are just some that I can think of.

I'll second M!Morgan and F!Corrin are great users of Windsweep. It works est on debuff builds imo

I gave Windsweep to my Sothe which works well. But hes the only unit that runs it so as for other builds I guess fast units to help with chip damage, maybe a defensive dragon unit to help as a wall, or another dagger unit like sothe. Sothe is probably the best for it since his weapon debuffs the enemy while buffing your units making it easier for kills

okay, so alternative opinion.
i got pity broke by an alm with your exact iv's and decided to make him into an arena assault support unit.
basically my completed build for him with his special refine+reciprocal aid+furynewal+hp seal, and once i get the feathers i'll be putting infantry pulse 3 on him.
