Tier List Test/Wind

Portrait	Name	Tier	Notes
	Maribelle	S+	Maribelle is basically wind Lily but with some minor differences. Instead of freeze, her 1st skill inflicts 5% def down, which is always welcome. She also has Full HP = Skill Damage, meaning her skills will hit harder than Lily's, however her regular attacks will be somewhat weaker. Skill prep also means she's ready to fire off her skills as soon as the fight starts. Unfortunately, lacks a way to keep her passive up.
	Musashi	S	A Blade wielder focused on raw damage. His first skill is a decent nuke and also inflicts poison, which is some nice extra DoT, making it one the highest damage skills in the game. He also has OD punisher, which is a nice extra boost since bosses spend a lot of time in OD. However, his 1st passive is kinda mediocre because it's a 1 time buff.
	Eleonora	S	Archers all inflict a debuff, and Eleonora's no exception: she poisons her enemies. Unlike most archers, both of her skills will inflict the poison debuff. The DoT is actually quite respectable. Unlike Hawk, however, she doesn't get increased damage against poisoned enemies and instead gets skill prep as her 3rd ability. Overall a very solid DPS unit and more consistent than Hawk.
	Hawk	A	Hawk's a pretty straightforward guy: He inflicts Stun so he can then capitalize on it. However, he's plagued by the same issues as most bow users: There are bosses who have resistance or are immune to being Stunned. He'd also much rather have his stun be on a nuke, rather than a self-buff which enhances his Force Strikes to stun. Lastly, the stun duration varies between 2 and 4 seconds, making his first skill difficult to properly utilize. He does have a really solid Str stat, however. Decent unit overall but suffers a lot from being a bow unit.
	Ranzal	A+	Wind's best tank - although, there's not much competition for this role. His 2nd skill, an AoE shield, is great utility for him and his team, negating one attack as long as it doesnt exceed the damage threshold. He also gets a defense up on the 4* weapon and Slayer's Strength to patch up his low attack, however in the end he's still mainly a tank. Being a free unit also doesn't help him either.
	Aeleen	A+	Aeleen's like wind Elisanne: her buff strength, duration and first passive are a copy of Elisanne. However, she buffs Defense instead of Strength and her buff takes about 2.5x as long to charge, making it hard to keep it up permanently. Defense up is also less valuable than Strength. That said, it does trigger Valiant Crown. Aeleen's also capable of dishing out more damage than Elisanne, but ultimately that isn't why you would run Aeleen. Overall, solid unit but would've loved a Str buff instead of a Def buff.
	Sophie	A	A healer with a damage skill for some unknnown reason - and one with a high SP cost at that. The 4* weapon is okay on her, giving her a Str buff, but you would just run a damage dealer if you wanted damage. At least her 1st passive is actually good for a healer. However, faces no competition as she's the only healer in Wind.
	Melody	A	The only support blade unit, Melody has a team-wide 15% Str up (20% if you factor in her co-ability). having extra crit at full hp is nice, but she's reliant on others to keep her HP full. Decent support unit if you can't run Elisanne.
	Nicolas	B	Decent Str stat, 2 nukes and a stun on his second nuke. Good mix of damage and utility, however has to compete with a lot of units for the same role who are ultimately better than him.
	Johanna	B	Has some pretty good multipliers on her skills, as well as Slayer's Strength. However, she's got a pretty low Str stat which is probably why she's labeled as Defense. Her passive's somewhat useful but not very reliable.
	Francesca	C	Provides def down on her second ability. However, has low Str and a pretty mediocre passive, as Dagger units generally dont use their FS for damage. The 4* weapon doesn't do much for her either. On top of that, her Def down has a low hitrate.
	Philia	C	Of all the statuses Philia could've inflicted, she chose paralysis which doesn't work on Mercury. Her first passive is nice but she's got no way to sustain herself. Also has to compete with Eleonora and Hawk for a spot.
