Lysithia, Ingrid, and Petra are my favorites.

Ingrid as a Falcon Knight just wrecks everything. She dodges almost every attack and always counterattacks twice. Her ability to use Swords and Spears means she can counter any weapon.

Lysithia has ridiculous range and can use all types of magic. She learns all skills twice as fast as others.

Petra is awesome with her ability to crit them if they are below 50% HP. Combine that with her +25 dodge ability and she dodges almost as much as Ingrid only to counterattack with a nearly guaranteed crit.

What you mean by the bolded? There is no weapon triangle in this game thus no weapon countering, everything is equally effective against everything. But yeah Lysithia is OP! That Dark Spikes T is able to 1-shot most things without even doubling, can even be used to kill the Death Knight during the early encounters with him. She's also the only one afaik who gets dark magic that can be used on all paths (r.i.p. Hubert). Then of course you have Warp shenanigans. Haven't used Petra yet, but I'm currently doing Blue Lions (I thought of a way to make it more interesting to say the least hehe), and Ingrid has been a top performer for sure. I'm of the opinion that everyone can be really good, since everyone can be any class and use any weapon, that means everyone can be in the best classes.

There are skills that mimic the weapon triangle. Axe Breaker, Lance Breaker, and Sword Breaker all give you +20 Hit/Avo when attacking someone with the right weapon. I'm pretty sure that on hard mode a lot of the NPC enemies already have these skill equipped too. I'll go back and check on that later. 

P.S. How are you getting Lysithea to take three different attacks and survive? I've been using her, and she's got amazing range, but she dies after one or two hits. Naturally I just keep her fighting in the back lines and she lives every game, but I remember you saying that you were able to use her to tank enemies all day. Are you not playing on Hard mode? What class is she in your party?
