B-slot skill for Reinhardt?

I have a +ATK -DEF Reinhardt and I was wondering what B-skill to put on him. I'm okay with waiting to summon for units who have the necessary skills and I also have several Narcians that I'm not planning on using. Any suggestions?

I'd highly recommend Lancebreaker 3. It will allow him to make follow-up attacks against Lance wielders, which is very useful imo.

Its actually not recommended but still fine skill for defensiv.
Reinhardt just reckt everything the only way they survive is a) your Reinhardt is not +atk or b) they have Fury +res boon
With just a +4 atk buff +atk Reinhardt kill most blue Heroes even with Fury and +res boon
the only 3 that survive are Gwendolyn Jagen and Florina.

He is just the most broken Hero in Game you can Free choose. Blue tome breaker as example you can lure some Blue tomes. With that he can survive the most blue Tome Blades because of 37hp and 25res he can survive some Blade Nuke thx to Blue Tome Breaker and block their follow up.
Lance Breaker has only one real use to block enemy follow up vs you what would be actually still fine if you can not reposition/ drag back /dance your Reinhardt.

Quick Riposte is the best I think, been using it for awhile so not sure if maybe some of the newer units have something better for him. The counter attack usually lets him get at least one kill from being attacked since his speed means impossible to get a follow up. Mine also uses miracle as special, works great with that.

Reinhardt isn't bulky enough to use Quick Riposte very well. Especially with his poor Speed stat and the fact that he wields a Brave Tome. On top of that, it's completely useless if he's attacked by a unit with a range of 1 or if they have Desperation.

Reinhardt is the kind of unit who works best during the player's turn. Not the defensive phase. Plus, the lack of an offensive skill and the fact that Miracle takes 5 turns to activate doesn't help him much at all.

If you don't have B Tomebreaker than you can go with Lancebreaker, I have better success using B Tomebreaker but it by all means does not rule out Lancebreaker's usefulness, as it outright stops him from getting murdered by every lancer that's always going to double him aside from Effie, and he prevents her Wary Fighter from stopping his KO on her.

People overrate Lancebreaker. Real talk, the most common units you'll face in the arena get killed by Reinhardt in his first volley if he is +atk with death blow. Since most team comps have someone with hone atk 3, he usually gets a +4 atk boost which obliterates all lances. Lancebreaker adds nothing to Reinhardt outside of letting him survive melee lance attacks which is not something that should be happenning often nor is it something that makes using Reinhardt that significantly easier.

I would actually recommend R tomebreaker 3 simply because it allows him to play as an enemy phase unit. He can't bait red mages otherwise (they can kill him easily), but with it, he is capable of baiting them. This gives him far more utility than lancebreaker.

Thanks for the advice but I decided to go for Lancebreaker since I did notice he wasn't able to KO certain units without it. I didn't really see the need to use the R Tomebreaker since it was somewhat an overkill since I rarely put him in harm's way anyway. I still appreciate the suggestion though! :D
