magic on a melee slot is nice and all , and claudia can actually do true damage during her skill , which is a nice thing to have but her staying power is just so damn...low. And she's also at max cost.... Dunno what to say. You'd probably want her raised a bit as well , but honestly , your barbarians are much better duelists (keep in mind that awakened barbarians do extra damage to armored units - 80% more damage actually)


My claudia for example is at 4cr and she's standing at lvl 70 (not awakened) on 2 different high level accounts. On my non black acount i have celia awakened and at max level + imelia at max level awakened (as you , i also have adele) and a tethis awakened and at max level (her resistance to stuns and other effects is what made me level her) and that;s it. I didn't have to use claudia in ages


On my black account i have imelia and lyla (and aisha which gives 14% hp boost) as my main duelists , and again , i didn't had to raise claudia past level 70



That being said , claudia is not that bad of a unit in any way , especially if you lack other princesses , but i do feel that with your setup , barbarians would shine better. % HP bonus on barbarians is rather good because they already have high base hp so they scale really well with that. Actually one of my most wanted units on my black account (the one with aisha) is adele. 34% hp for barbarians is insane
