I see how Vika is better statistically than I originally believed, but her being availible for only 5 out of 40+ chapters is pretty bad. Plus in the DB chapters, you shouldn't be using her, instead you should be using people who are with the DB in part III, since they'll be struggling to keep their heads above water until someone gets to third tier, preferably someone with solid defences, and doesn't rely on dodging, since the enemies in the DB P III chapters are quite strong, and have good hit, Mt, and def.


Vika has a period of time where she's actually very useful, and everyone in Lower Middle does not.
That's already a huge advantage for her, but should you decide to train her, you get a pretty strong unit.

How many units below her have the first advantage, and the second perk?

I'll tell you. None of them.

You still haven't said how Pelleas is worse than Lucia. Spirits will bounce off him, and he can take hits from the powerful magic users, like Leikan, Lehran, and Ashera. Lucia, on the other hand, will be clinking the disciples, getting raped by their huge stats, and failing at life in general. The spirts can attack her without fear of retaliation, since she's a sword user, and Zihark will be getting the Alondite. She will be unable to attack Leikan, suck against Levail, get pwn'd by dragons, killed by Dhegensea, lolowned by Lehran, and barely scratch Ashera.

Pwning endgame > having one chapter of jeigan-ness in P II, and phailing endgame.


You're overrating Pelleas' performance in endgame. He has to actually get to that level first, which unfortunately for him, I'd rather invest into DB units, as they are going to be a similar or higher level than him, and have supports established, and start and end up better than him (most of them do anyway).

On the other hand, one of the advantages of being good at a certain point of time without being trained is that the unit can be thrown into the team as a filler unit in almost any given playthrough. In Lucia's case, you can use her in 2-2 in almost every playthrough and she can build up usefulness like that, and you can simply drop her for the rest of the game. To get to the point where Pelleas beats out Lucia, you have to endure several chapters of suck, and he won't even become great unless you dump a lot of favoritism on him, which will only hamper the team due to all the resources that are consumed.
