Boons
-
+SPD: A boon in Speed is a fantastic choice for Siegbert, as it boosts both his offensive and defensive capabilities by allowing him to better perform and avoid follow-up attacks.
-
+ATK: Increasing raw damage is always helpful with Siegbert being no exception, making Attack another great choice of boon.
Neutral
-
DEF: While raising it is not a priority, Siegbert prefers to keep his Defense neutral in order to keep his solid physical bulk of 72 intact.
-
HP: Similarly, Siegbert would rather avoid his superbane in HP (-4 reduction rather than the standard -3), as it can be detrimental to his overall survivability.
Banes
-
-RES: Resistance is Siegbert’s weakest stat and the best bane that he can receive, as dropping it further will hardly affect his overall performance.

This build focuses purely on offense by utilizing Siegbert’s personal weapon, Dark Greatsword. As such, Siegbert prefers boons in key offensive stats such as Attack and Speed in order to maximize his damage output. With Dark Greatsword bolstering Siegbert’s already impressive Attack on initiation, Draconic Aura makes for a very effective choice of Special. One can also choose to run Dragon Fang for more raw power at the cost of a longer cooldown.
Having it already built into his weapon, Siegbert can also run Swift Sparrow in his A slot for a staggering +8 boost to his Attack and Speed on initiation. Fury makes for another good choice; not only does it improve Siegbert’s overall bulk at the cost of 2 Attack/Speed, the 6 damage recoil taken after combat makes it easier to get into the HP range of Desperation. Otherwise, Siegbert’s native Death Blow makes for a solid budget option by giving him a strong boost to his Player Phase Attack.
While Desperation itself is the centerpiece of many offense-oriented builds, Siegbert’s impressive physical bulk opens the door for additional options. Both Chill Spd and Chill Def provide strong debuff support for both Siegbert and his teammates. However, these skills may not always land on their desired target. For his C slot, both Hone Cavalry and Atk Tactic make for great team support options on and off a cavalry-centric team respectively.
Last but not least, Siegbert has several options for his Sacred Seal slot. Thanks to his high Attack on initiation, Siegbert makes very effective of Heavy Blade, allowing him to activate his Specials at a much more frequent rate. Alternatively, Quick Riposte can be used in order to give Siegbert longevity against units that are too fast for him to double. In particular, this allows Siegbert to defeat opponents such as Ayra, Lucina, and Soleil in the Enemy Phase. Otherwise, Attack +3 and Speed +3 remain good choices for providing Siegbert with a solid offensive stat boost.

Despite his personal weapon and statline leaning mostly towards the role of an offensive unit, Siegbert can perform exceedingly well at the role of Enemy Phase as well. In addition to Attack and Speed, Defense also makes for a suitable choice of boon by making him more resilient to physical attacks as well as adding additional damage into Defense-scaling Specials such as Bonfire and Ignis.
For his Special, Aether grants Siegbert the ability to be a self-sustaining tank through its healing aspect. However, this comes at the cost of an exceptionally long cooldown. It is recommended that one uses the Heavy Blade Sacred Seal in order to mitigate this. For a purely offensive approach, both Bonfire and Ignis pair well with Siegbert’s high Defense for consistently high damage output.
Moving on to main skills, Steady Stance gives Siegbert an extremely strong boost to his Defense when initiated on as well as the effect of Guard. This fits the Enemy Phase playstyle perfectly, as it greatly increases Siegbert's survivability by massively boosting his physical bulk as preventing his opponents from activating their Specials. Though it doesn't give as big of a boost to his physical bulk, Sturdy Stance makes for a solid alternative by also boosting raw damage during the Enemy Phase.
Quick Riposte is an essential skill, as it guarantees Siegbert’s follow-up attack in the Enemy Phase. Assuming Siegbert is not running Steady Stance in his A slot, one can choose to move Quick Riposte to the Sacred Seal slot in favor of running Guard as his B skill. Guard will greatly reduce damage taken from opponents that rely on activating their Special such as Black Knight and Zelgius. This also applies to all armored units running Bold Fighter, as their follow-up attacks cannot be avoided if they initiate on Siegbert, along with granting them additional Special charge.
Smoke skills such as Atk Smoke and Def Smoke are great choices for Siegbert’s C slot. Atk Smoke makes him a better overall tank by reducing the damage output of opponents around him after combat while Def Smoke will increase his own damage output against the affected targets. As for Sacred Seals, Atk/Def Bond makes for a very strong option by boosting both Siegbert's physical bulk and damage when adjacent to an ally, suiting his Enemy Phase playstyle perfectly. Close Def is another good choice, as it will reduce damage taken from all melee opponents when initiated on. If not already being used in the B slot, Quick Riposte seal is pivotal in allowing Siegbert to consistently perform follow-up attacks in the Enemy Phase. The same applies to Atk Smoke, which can also be run here if it is not already being used in the C slot.
Introduction
In sharp contrast to his father, Xander, Siegbert leans heavily towards the role of a Player Phase unit and a powerful one at that. In addition to sporting great values in both Attack and Speed, Siegbert hits it out of the park with his unique weapon. Dark Greatsword complements Siegbert’s offensive playstyle perfectly thanks to its built-in effect of Swift Sparrow granting him an additional +4 Attack and Speed upon initiation. Furthermore, his physical bulk stands firm at a base value of 72.
Siegbert’s greatest weakness is his abysmal magical bulk. With only 16 Resistance and 57 magical bulk total, Siegbert is susceptible to getting taken out in only a single hit by magical-damage dealing opponents. While Siegbert’s status as a cavalry unit grants him enhanced movement as well as class-exclusive buffs, it also acts has its downsides. Not only is he susceptible to effective weapons such as Riderbane and Wolf tomes, his movement can be severely hindered by terrain obstacles such as forests and trenches.
Regardless, Siegbert performs exceptionally well at his role and can benefit any team in need of a strong offensive unit.
Strengths
Great Offensive Stats
Siegbert’s 34/35 Attack/Speed spread make him highly proficient in taking enemies out in a single round of combat.
Dark Greatsword
Complementing his offensive stats, Siegbert’s personal weapon bolsters his offensive prowess even further by granting him +4 Attack and Speed on initiation.
Good Physical Bulk
Siegbert has a solid physical bulk of 72, making him a suitable physical tank as well as an effective user of Defense-scaling Specials such as Bonfire and Ignis depending on the skill-set he is running.
Weaknesses
Dreadful Magical Bulk
Siegbert’s low magical bulk of 57 causes him to get massively chunked, if not outright killed in one hit by magic-based attacks.
Cavalry
Although being a cavalry unit has its advantages, it can also be a detriment. On top of forests and trenches making it harder to navigate maps, Siegbert has an innate weakness to cavalry effective weapons.
Team Options
Counters
Siegbert has absolutely atrocious Resistance, so any well placed blue magical attack will severely dent him. Past that, any bulky blue with damage mitigation skills such as Steady Breath or Close Def will be able to wall Siegbert will little problems.
-
Magical damage dealers: Nowi, Delthea, Lute, Reinhardt, and Linde can all make short work of Siegbert’s sparse magical bulk.
-
Physically bulky blues: Fallen Hardin, Effie, Winter Robin, Female Corrin, and Lukas can easily mitigate the amount of damage that Siegbert can do thanks to their high physical bulk and Weapon Triangle advantage. In addition, units that utilize the skill Guard can completely wall him off by preventing him from activating his Specials.
-
Effective Weapons: Anti-cavalry weapons, both physical and magic alike will easily tear through Siegbert’s health bar due to their high damage multiplier. Common users include Micaiah, Gray, and Gerome.

I has Siegbert for a long time now. I just felt like his build is simple. But then I decided to share my Siegbert build. It’s not much but it’s what I have. His ivs is +atk, -hp which is one of his best ivs.
For his weapon his dark greatsword is kept. Legendary weapons should always be kept unless you want to do something crazy and dumb. The weapon has a built in swift sparrow effect.
For his assist skill reposition is preferred to allow him to put a ally on the opposite side of him. Useful for getting allies out of danger and where they need to be.
For his special I replaced his dragon fang with the short charge version of it. Dragonic aura. It will boost his damage by using his atk stat for power.
For the A skill i’m using darting blow to give him 45 spd on the player phase and 3 more with speed+3 seal. With buffs he can reach high spds.
For his B skill desperation is preferred to allow him to do a immediate follow up attack. Pretty useful on a unit like him.
For his C skill his default atk tactic is preferred. It’s basically a better hone atk but there are some conditions that need to be met in order for the 6 atk buff to work. You can not have no more than 2 of the same unit movement type. For example if there are three cavaliers, and Siegbert being one of them, then those cavaliers will not get the buff. the last 4th unit who’s not a cavalry type will be the only one who gets the buff. Basically this skill works best on mixed teams. The weakness of the skill is that it’s rather hard to utilize on rival domains where you use more than 4 units. On that mode you are most likely gonna end up with more of the same movement type. Making atk tactic irrelevant on rival domains. Still pretty good skill outside of rival domains as long as you use mixed teams.
Overall my Siegbert build is simple but still pretty good. Some say he’s a better Brave Roy.

Basically Brave Roy, but better. When Siegbert initiates attack, he will gain an additional +10 Atk and +4 Spd, thus increasing the chance of a Special Cooldown Charge from Heavy Blade 3 with his high Atk, and since his speed is high as well, getting more Spd will increase the chance of making a follow up attack, and Swordbreaker 3 will also play a huge role as well.

Like Cherche, but on a horse with a sword. He should be able to one round anything in his way, then Hit and Run back to safety. Push comes to shove, he's basically Brave Roy if you give him Desperation.

Merged +1. This is his most effective build, in a horse cavalry team. I might try to include him in an arena team, in which case his build becomes: "/double rally/galeforce.
skills: swift sparrow 2/wrath/atk tactic. I'm still researching whether wrath accelerates cooldown when galeforce is equipped. If not, I'll use Wings of Mercy in the B slot.

61 atk + 43 spd for every attack is no joke, and wait until Desperation hits. This guy completely (in a way, yeah.) dismisses the weapon triangle after 2 hits and that Draconic Aura proc.
