That would be fine, but if it's 7* Elza, then she would overlap significantly with OE Selena and OE Eze. If you want a back-up for a lack of full gauges each turn, Elza would be okay to fill in the gaps, but her buffs are weaker than theirs, and if you're actually having trouble filling gauges, then Charla would be a better answer because of her fill on spark BB buff. In your average quest it won't matter, but in harder content it would.

If you're using Elza for the defense ignore, you could potentially use Lune instead (although she also has a spark buff to watch out for.) If you're using Elza for status ailments, then she is definitely better than Kikuri (who is overall much weaker at this point and conflicts with Laberd anyway.) Vernil has counter ailments, but really, if you need Curse, then Elza is the best option.

Elza is also a really good spark blanket, although if you could get Malbelle to spark nicely, her infinite SBB might make up for the bit of overlapping that she has.

Just make sure Elza goes in turn order before Selena and Eze friends, that way they can overwrite her HoT and Spark buffs. :)
