D'Eon's no good for a starter is what I really meant. Her ability to tank for the team is only available once she's gotten her third skill. And believe me, I know fully well the value of it now that she's there and how indispensible it can be at times especially since I've been more lucky than I want to be with berserkers. Heck, I settled on D'Eon after hearing that she's a great tank and the bad decision I'm talking about was not researching further and finding out that she, Carmilla and St. Martha aren't the only available starters.

But for a starter, she lacks damage potential, her NP is bad, and the fact that the only skills she'll have for a long while is self-defensive in nature (Looks of Loveliness is supportive in my opinion) will make things difficult for someone new. Essentially, a glorified 3 star if not for her massive HP as was noted. Even Leonidas has his 'HIT ME' skill at the start, as well as having it as his NP. D'Eon's worth isn't apparent during this time.

If the effects of D'Eon's NP was better (15% debuffs for 2 turn, 30% charm chance for 1 turn at NP1, 35% and 70% respectively at NP5) then she would have been infinitely better for someone still starting out. Perhaps that's asking for too much given how well she performs her specific niche though.
