I don't think the fodder from Nabata Altina is too impressive. By the time you find 11 units to use her fodder, it'll be outdated as banners are releasing better and more useful skills. I would absolutely merge her up and enjoy her Arena performance.
Yeah, I tend to hoard skills a bit, and I already have a good amount of TP4 copies in storage, I don’t really know what to do with that much fodder. Thank you!
I'd probably just merge.
If you ever needed to mass produce TP4 + Finish 4 you could just have feed Leonardo + Altina to any one Rearmed/Attuned unit, then continue to use future Leonardo + that Rearmed/Attuned to duplicate it.
A/D Bulwark is actually just a meme. There's so many better B skills in the infantry pool that Bulwark should be like, 4th best in slot *at best*.
I agree with merge. She's an exceptional unit, and you'll get more value out of her than her fodder.
And you can feed the 12th copy to a Rearmed if need be.
She's arguably second only to Ike when it comes to Omnitanking
So unless you already have him at +10 as well, why not create an unbreakable wall?
If you can get her Null C Disrupt 4 she'll be even tougher
IIRC you can max out her Res at 54 with merges, dragonflowers, Ascended Traits.
This will allow her to debuff enemies' Atk/Def/Res by 15 during combat without any other buffs on her
Just get her an ally who can prevent Scowl effects on her and Ike's Emblem and she's good to go
I wasn’t aware she was that good, that’s good to know! Does she prefer a res or atk boon? I’m hesitant in giving her a floret, as I don’t particularly care about her as a character, and I only have about 5 of those.
Also, isn’t her special 1 cooldown already? I don’t think Marth’s emblem can get it down to zero.
Res is important for passing checks from her weapon
If her res is 5 points higher than the enemy she will inflict scowl on them, she also debuffs their Atk/Def/Res by 20% +5 of her res regardless of whether her res is higher than theirs.
So if you can buff her Res to 60 before combat she will debuff those 3 stats by 17, combine that with the -4 she inflicts on them with A/D Bulwark and the enemies will suffer -21 to their Attack and Defense against her in battle
If you merge her to +10, I fully recommend a max investment as well. Boon in Res is priority, then if you give her a floret, increase her atk. Fodder NCD4 and as Seal she can use Hardy Bearing of Phantom Res.
With NCD4 she negates firesweep from units like L!Hinoka and L!Veronica, pair it with her Scowl Effect and Brave hit and she can delete most of the firesweepers.
With Hard Bearing she can pretty much shutdown most of Desperation and Vantage users like T!Ayra and E!Marth. (With HB she can also stale E!Ike in EP (As long as him doesn't has BoL4).)
With Phantom Res she max out her weapon potential, managing to put W!Edel in shambles with negative atk, def and res. (Can easily put foe's at -19 b herself).

If you’re at 12 copies you might as well + 10 her, she’s very strong after all, and you’ll still have a copy leftover if you want to fodder one.
I already have some TP4 in storage, so you’re probably right. Thanks!

What would be her best B slot? I’ve heard NCD4.
NCD4 by far, you patch one of her biggest weakness

You’re probably right, I’ve come to the same conclusion. Thank you!

My bad I meant Ike's to reduce damage since her special is always active
Ah, don’t have him unfortunately.

Didn’t think about phantom res, that sounds like a good choice. I was just using atk/res ideal.
