It's like they started making him a tank. Then realized it was time to go home and said screw it. He has a huge HP pool, low attack on his regular cards, and a kit that is almost there.
You add a 3 turn taunt to his NP gain skill. Either add or change Disengage to have 1 turn invincible along with cleanse and maybe the heal. Not only does he become an awesome tank, but it fits his back story. He was supposed to be invincible from bathing in dragon blood, and he wanted to protect people.
I recently got my 3rd copy of him during Jalters banner. I have been trying to decide whether to burn the extra copy of him for rare prisms, or make him NP3. He was my first gold saber. I'd like to use him more. I would if he could tank for my buster team, but as he is now. I just have too many other servants that can do what he does more effectively. I know he is a good servant and I've nearly maxed him out. I just think he could be even better.
Siegfried's role isn't to be a tank, his niche is to kill dragon enemies, and I guess his high hp pool represents his bath in dragon blood?(idk, I'll roll with it). I'd get him to np 3, cuz from what I've heard of the Lostbelts, there are a lot of lancer dragon enemies with poison debuffs on their normal attacks
Another option is to put George with him. George forces the dragon trait on enemies with his NP and lets Siegfried do maximum damage on them.
There's D'eon whose HP and atk stat similiar to Siegfried and both have HP stat of 5 star
servant. But their role is different, Siegfried is an anti-dragon DPS while D'eon is a Tank.
No, DW would not gonna make that happen. Siegfried only can be killed in the back and he can barely die only with multiple layer of curses, so for the sake of the game balance he is only Invincible when fighting dragon enemies especially Lancer ( still neutral dragon barely can kill him, near-invincible ).
From his lore or Legend none of his enemy can kill him, he is only killed when his best friend stab him on his back. He slay thousands of his enemy alone and their leader serve him because he is invincible and Indomitable in his time.
Worst, when you can kill him you can take his almost-unlimited treasure but in exchange for that you will be the most unlucky person cursed by the treasure ( your luck will be dropped to D and E rank alike ).
No matter how strong he is, he died by a tragic death ( death betrayed by your best friend ).
For example when invincible servant meet another Invincible servant, the fight would be really boring. Karna and Siegfried fight from night until morning and both barely had a scratch ( his master is tired waiting ). They use many types of attack to each other ( Including countless strong Mana burst attack ) they received it head on and still can't die.
Imagine you as their master and accidentally fallen asleep while watching them fighting each other.
That's why DW change their skill in order to balancing the game.
He's a strong saber now and he is still not received his NP and animation update on NA yet. He will be stronger soon, just wait.
He has very strong damage multiplier if you pair him with Georgios, yes George is Siegfried best friend and you have him at NP 3 so your Siegfied can fire his NP even harder.
