How so with only +1 Spd/Res over Norne when both are +10 +Spd

The title sounds like a smash bros new character intro lol

shut up, that spd is very important

Guard Bow norne at your service

change the link sill to spd/res or do lull atk/spd. refine the bow to res be speed.

I wouldn’t recommend guard bow, it’s too outdated. Candlewax bow or Reindeer bow are much better if you don’t have Plegian or Spendthrift

Well. I use Guard Bow. it gets jobs done. and i HAVE Spendthrift Bow on Norne. but i use the Guard Bow if i want to do some weird tanking stuff. it’s not “outdated” at all.

… You’re aware that Spendthrift is better for tanking that Guard Bow, right?
I mean, +7/+7 in any condition is better than +6/+6 against ranged only.

Unless the healing special activates with Guard Bow and not Spendthrift

I mean, I agree with you about Spendthrift being better, but it does have a drawback that can’t be ignored

I’d argue that it’s not much of a problem in Noontime’s case, since it’s going to be activating as long as the enemy hits you once and you double them. I’d be a different matter with a longer cooldown special, or if you want to attack someone who can’t counter, though.

I would argue that it is a problem for Noontime. I specifically change my Noire from Spendthrift to Plegian specifically beacuse Noontime was not activating frequently enough.

Then there’s me who runs the Mystic Boost seal which is usually enough to counteract whatever damage Takumi takes

It’s to the point where I occasionally run Glimmer over Noontime

i never said it Guard Bow was better than Spendthrift for tanking. Just said when I want to do some weird tanking stuff (and go with her triple DD3 (well+4) thing). i have that option. also it’s not outdated as it was said by someone else. a lot of weapons/builds have their usage.

Again. I have Spendthrift on my norne and it’s 9x10 her most used bow. but i also don’t have problems experimenting on some others including her native guard bow.

just seeing some people saying they have an issue with noontime and spendthrift. i don’t really have that problem myself but again it really just depends on the situation.

Hello Halo! How are you? I haven’t been here for a long time and I was just looking for posts about her. And if it is worth investing in her. I have all the best possible skills for her and i dont have a Archer +10. What are you thinking of her?

I haven’t actually built that, it was just in unit builder. Although I do have her at +10 with a half finished kit on my second account and she’s pretty good there. Especially with some support from a B!Lucina. So with a more complete kit like the one I posted above she’d probably be even better.
