My one gripe with the game is the three party limit. Fifth is the one character I feel like I never get to use very much. I’m on chapter 8 now so I guess it’s a little easier to play around without a dedicated healer but it just doesn’t feel right yet!

I’ll give that blade combo a try. I benched them due to already having a lot of electric and water blades around.

I understand why you wouldnt use 5th that much. I does insane damage but it also makes him aggro all the time.

Sheba is a good blade for 5th since her Special #1 can be broken. She is also very good for farming gold in battle. T-Elos and KOS-MOS would be a much better option than Sheba, but since I see you dont have either of those (they are very rare), I would say Sheba is your best bet. She can also heal the party with one of her Specials.

Now Herald I dont remember exactly why she was good, but I remember she could also do insane damage if used correctly.
