Infinite Miracle Saber

So this mystic boost is really powerful skill for my taste!!

Saber can be a unbeatable tank as long he doubles !!

his set will be his dagger, miracle, Fierce breath, Mystic boost, Def Smoke, Darting stance.

the Idea is to build his EP, then when enemy attack, he will proc miracle, surviving with 1 HP, then counter twice, which again charge miracle.
after combat, mystic boost will give him 6 HP, so he will be able to proc miracle again!
his damage output will come from the fierce breath, and def smoke.
he wont need his def at all with this set, because miracle will ensure he will live!
also his dagger will also activate all the time due to miracle, giving him DC and nonrecoil fury.

of course there's still downside to this, if he failed to double, miracle wont proc, so he will be open to slaughter.
also miracle is not proccing on 1st combat, so he also open to ORKO on 1st battle.
he will also go down to Bold Fighter, Ephraims, HMyrrh, Savage Blow, and Brave weapons.
there's also problem with Guard of course, since this is a specials dependant build.

If you do have +spd saber, I suggest to try this out.
I believe this will work nicely, exp he has 45 spd with this setup before buff.

I feel like Saber works best with aegis.
Miracle is a nice safety net, but the -50% and -5 on aegis and shield pulse allows Saber to safely pull even strong blue mages, as long as they aren't Reinhardt.

Saber might be the single best unit for defence specials.

Ogma can also try this set.

His weapon, dc.......Etc.

Comparing saber and ogma at neutral with their weapon effects.

Ogma: 55 atk and 38 spd
Saber: 54 atk and 36 spd.

Ogma will preffer +atk for heavy blade.

Saber does prefer +spd.

no, only Slaying+DC weapon can do this, while ogma weapon is only heavy blade.

on your example, ogma with DC wont proc miracle, because it is a 5 charge specials.
if your miracle is charged, then enemy proc it, you only charge 4, which will lead to your death on the next fight.

only saber can do this atm, unless we have another slaying + DC weapon.

Can Ares mimic this? His Dark Mystletainn grants special cooldown count -2 after combat if special triggers before or DURING combat, so if it works with Miracle they can do the same with Distant Counter on their A. Although his SPD seems not so high to ensure double retaliation. Eldigan also has the sword but his SPD is worse than his son.
