Compared to other level 3 units, both Griffins have adequate stats with the only weakness being their relatively low damage. Edric's specialty will not only make Royal Griffins the 2nd fastest level 3 unit at 10 Speed (only Dragon Flies are faster), but also somewhat mitigate their low damage thanks to the increased attack. His secondary skills make him a decent starting hero while further improving the performance of the Griffins as Armorer leads to less casualties (improving the strength of the Griffin's retaliations) and Leadership can allow for extra attacks (along with mitigating the chance of losing turns due to low morale). Keep in mind that as a Knight, Edric has the lowest chance of all the hero classes to learn Earth Magic which can cause issues later in the game if he doesn't learn it due to the improvements spells such as Resurrection, Town Portal, and Slow get when cast with Expert Earth Magic.
