Ninian | Final Evaluation:

If you still don’t have Olivia or Azura in your Castle, Ninian is a must have. She is the second Dancer in the game, next to Olivia. Basing on stats, Oliva can beat Ninian alone in terms of ATK, SPD, DEF, and RES at max level. Looking at their Special Moves, Ninian has an advantage. Her Light Breath+ Weapon can grant adjacent units DEF/RES+4 every time she moves. Aside from her Dance Assist skill, her Escape Route Passive Skill is also helpful in terms of moving units away from an enemy. This is crucial during Grand Hero Battles.

Escape Route has a total of 320 SP to max.
