—Saleh talking to Myrrh in a support conversation

Overall
Do not count on Saleh too much when he comes in the front lines due to his low HP, but just put him behind with some protection and he will be all right. Even with his high Magic and Skill, either Lute or Ewan will be very likely overcome him. But if you really like Saleh and want to take benefit of what he can offer, then you will not regret using him.
Despite lacking direct magical strength, Saleh's very high Skill enables him to critical-hit fairly often, and if you level his staves use to B, he will be very effective with a Physic. With A-support levels (especially those with Ewan or Eirika), he will be able to take out a good portion of the battlefield in two hits or less.
