dolk.

as a squad maker, I have quite a few reasons.

1, BB/SBB Krantz adds elements. Today, elements are useless. In fact, so many bosses have resistance and immunity that it does not matter at all. Krantz also can heal/status heal. It is good, but it isn't the highest healing and does not nullify. Yes, Dolk has his shortcomings. He can't heal, but he covers that with bc/hc drop rate thanks to ES. Yes, many bosses do have reduction in BC/HC creation, but HC is usually enough.Also, Dolk can negate ATK,DEF,REC down, which is huge in raids and trials.

2, Leader skill. Krantz leader skill does not help either of BB/SBB. Although offensive lead, you need five elements. That calls for a diverse units, and that makes squad making harder, especially in raids and trials. When you need many buffs, you may not be able to fulfill it because of five element requirement. However when fufilled, it is very good, though HP,def, and rec is not as good as Dolk. And, Michele lead would be better if to compare. For Dolk, 35% to all parameters is huge thing. That calls for less damage received, more healing and hit points, and is just made for all around. Though not huge impact, it is all-around. Also, negating element damageakes you like a raid boss! Now you don't need to worry about specific unit dying because of element disadvantage. And negate critical damage. Boys! we don't need to worry about critical damage that usually kills one of my unit every freakin time! If the boss has crit rate up like GGC for Six disciples, so so useful.

3. UBB Krantz 75% damage reduction is 2 turns when Dolk is 3. And Krantz buffs ATK only, but Dolk increase ATK, DEF, and REC. That is Deimos upgrade. Yeah, you would use Krantz UBB for nuking, but if the boss may be hard to do so, Dolk is great.

4. ES. To be honest, Krantz ES is better. Won't lie. Dolk only increases BC/HC though it isn't too great nowadays. Also, the second part is just a repeat from his leader skill, so eh. But Krantz ES can help you anyday. It decreases amount of BC needed, which is always useful, and 20% chance to mitigate 20%. If you had to mitigate and guard, the mitigator may die. But with this probable chance, it saves your revive for later use. This can be very crucial in trials and future RC 6 against Shusui, because he does strong hit.
