Best Distant Counter Burkut Build?

I've made the decision to give distant counter to Burkut. Rather than the A slot, I just wondered what would be best for his build beyond that?

Quick Repost?
Burkut Lance?
Bonfire?

I assume you building him to be able to bait and retaliate against almost any unit right?
Needs QR for sure,
Berkut’s lance isn’t a bad option but a slaying lance is better simply because -1cooldown > 4 res. Plus you’re already investing alot in him right?

Panic ploy would be a decent C skill because of his high hp, or calvalry buffs.

I would fully upgrade distant counter sacred seal and give that to him.

Your skill picks are pretty standard so you're going down the right path for a distant counter build.

If SP or you're a mostly F2P player you can stick with his standard lance, this'll give him 28 res unbuffed on the enemy phase which is rather nice compared to Xander and Camus. However if you're pretty rich or pulled like a bad Nephenee you can opt to give him Slaying Lance+ since it shares the same MT and you'll get -1 cooldown but lose out on the +4 resistance boost so it's your call.

Oh right that's another option as well of course, but in case someone doesn't want to spend those newly added resources they could always fodder Nephenee off as well. Again in my personal opinion Wrath just doesn't seem all that thrilling to use over Desperation (That is until if either one becomes a seal).

Quick riposte and bonfire/ignis. I prefer Ignis, because it lets him kill some greens when charged. Give him distant defense seal, keep his lance. With the weapon reforge system, Berkut’s lance will be upgradeable and he might become a really really good mage killer. He is my summoner support and I pair him with Sigurd, both with hone cavs. I’m not disappointed at all, he takes on Reinhardt and mages pretty well.

Thanks! He was my project for these last few weeks as FEH has been kind of slow. Actually, I’m delighted. He is solid, and he may be even better when the reforging system arrives. It’s a lot of commitment, but that’s what FEH is for, to use your favorite units.

I WOULD NOT give DC to Berkut just yet. Sorry for being the bad guy but berkuts lance will be upgradable. Maybe wait and see what effects /stats it can have before foddering expensive skills like DC ;)
