Warning: this is a fun build. It's surely NOT optimal, but it follows a theme. The theme is Parthia, which is the Blazing Bow. So, we're focusing on Parthia and a Flame special. Jeorge has Blazing Flame on standard, which deals 1.5x more damage than Growing Flame but has less "range". Both are viable, as soon as you like it. The goal of this build is to be a decent archer and use Growing Flame/Blazing Flame. With Swift Sparrow 2 or Darting Blow 3, Jeorge will reach a decent amount of speed, which can be further increased by the Summoner's Support (if you want to run this build then you probably love Jeorge a lot). Also, merges are really important to make the unit far stronger, so if you have multiple Jeorges (and you cursed him for showing up): merge them. The B Passive is really tough to choose. You can run a -breaker skill (Sword Breaker 3, Lancebreaker 3, Bowbreaker 3, ecc) to be sure you'll double attack a certain kind of unit. Alternatively, you can use Cancel Affinity 3 to counter Raven-Adept mages which are used. Its C Passive is just what your team needs. His relatively low HP conflict with Infantry Pulse 3.
Speaking of Infantry Pulse 3, if you have another guy with it, it lowers the high CD of Blazing Flame/Growing Flame from 4 to 3, which is really valuable. 3 CD means that if you double attack and the enemy retaliates, the special will be ready for the next battle. If you have 2 Infantry Pulse users in your team, the effects will stack, so you can make the special ready even if the opponent doesn't retaliate. The Sacred Seal is another really important part of the build: one of the weaknesses of Growing Flame/Blazing Flame is Vantage 3 users. Hardy Bearing 3 prevents Vantage from activating so you can pull off the special safely. If you don't fear Vantage users, then Quickened Pulse or Speed +3 are really good choices.
Useful teammates are infantry units, such as: Dorcas, because he's a really good defensive unit with Infantry Pulse 3 as his standard C Passive; Buff Eirika/Ephraim to boost stats; a Dancer or a Blade-tome mage. Note that Shigure or Inigo are both Dancers/Singers AND Blade users so they are a really good addition to your team. |
