Hi,
Like the title says, I wonder what is the general preference of players and your individual preference between defense stacking units without good HP and units with less but still decent def who can be called HP bags?
As an example, we could compare Rinkah, Hinata, Effie and Arhtur and the value of stat boosters on them to patch their weak trait and make them your most valuable early frontliners (Silas seems out of this league since he has neither good HP nohr good defense at base and stays middling in both unless RNG blessed or Revelations!Silas but he's a completely different unit with stats nearly comparable with royal heirs so he's out).
Votes have already started so I add this: it would really be nice if you commented on the reasoning behind your choice (strategy, tactics, use of the units, how good is def/res vs hp and why you would prefer one over the other, especially in Fates where HP is a very limited ressource, damage is high and seraph robe is shit but made up for with tonics, meanwhile dragonshield stays the same and can be topped with tonics too).
