Is Marni good?

Free armored axe tank you can fully merge with Heroic Grails, so a +10 copy is within easy reach. Praise-Piner Axe is effective against fliers and uses adaptive damage, gives her and nearby allies bonus neutralization and Def/Res+6 each turn, and on enemy phase adds penalties on the foe, Def-based damage reduction and a Miracle effect that her post-combat healing keeps resetting.

She fits a Savior tank build well. With 20 base Spd she depends on Wary Fighter 3, so Null Follow-Up attackers, brave weapons and Null Miracle effects are what break her.

  • Fully mergeable for free with Heroic Grails

Weaknesses

  • Base 20 Spd
  • Null Follow-Up users can double her
  • Brave weapons and Null Miracle skills get past her safety net
  • Randgríðr and other anti-armor weapons deal 1.5x

    Effective against flying foes. Grants Def+3. Calculates damage using the lower of foe's Def or Res. At start of turn, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants Def/Res+6 and "neutralizes foe's bonuses during combat" to unit and allies within 2 spaces of unit for 1 turn. If foe initiates combat or foe's HP ≥ 75% at start of combat, inflicts penalty on foe's Atk/Def/Res = 5 + 15% of unit's Def at start of combat and reduces damage from foe's attacks by 15% of unit's Def during combat (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and also, if unit's HP > 1 and foe would reduce unit's HP to 0, unit survives with 1 HP (once per combat; does not stack with non-Special effects that allow unit to survive with 1 HP if foe's attack would reduce HP to 0). If foe initiates combat or foe's HP ≥ 75% at start of combat, restores 7 HP to unit after combat.
