For some reason I’ve used Dorcas in every single play through of fe7 I’ve played, all the way up until the most recent one only because I am using Bartre for that Karla recruitment. I expected to bench Bartre when he reached the levels needed to get Karla but the amount of experience he has right now makes him one of my better combat units. I’m guessing the same would go for Dorcas unless you get level up screwed, especially since you could theoretically train him up in Lyn mode if you really like him.
Thankfully fe7 isn’t a game that’s super demanding of optimal play even on its hardest difficulty. The two axe fighters start the game off as ‘ok’ and may even eventually become ‘alright’. They’re not as good as many other units who can do the same thing but they’re nowhere near bad enough to actively hinder your army, even with HHM’s lower deployment slots.
idk maybe I like them because their bows are funny
