Share your Black Knight builds

I finally got mine up to full power (well, almost, still need to merge him).

My Black Knight build is min-maxed for high speed/high attack and centered around the assumption that Healer Gwendolyn will always be close by to provide Hone Armor, HP Donation, and S level support. I've mostly run this in a hybrid team of two armor and two fliers, but I imagine it would do quite well in a pure armor team with Goad Armor up. Running Panic Ploy 3 allows him to defang Blade tomes and horse emblem teams, while freeing him up to run Quicken Pulse for extreme burst damage early on. Of course, Reinhardt still utterly destroys him in every scenario - short of Vantage being up with Black Luna primed - but his attack is high enough that he can one shot Linde, Delthea, and other frail blue mages. His speed is also high enough that, despite his low resistance, he can usually survive an attack from most blue mages (as noted, even if they're running Swordbreaker some will be OHKOed on the counter).

So, how about your Black Knights? Share a screenshot and say something about them.

I am still in doubt wether or not to burn my spare B!ke to get Steady Breath on him. Black Knight seems like an absolute beast, but, Xander already fullfils a very similar role on my team. Steady Breath seems like the best choice on BK though, thanks to his absurd and uninheritable special.

I'd probably slap quickened pulse on him to ensure a Black Luna retaliation on the first hit of the first engagement. Vantage seems like a fun idea, and as my luck in getting Nephenee has been terrible (hello Oscar), I'll probably go with that.

As attached.

Note: this might be up for another discussion topic. But I've just done arena offense and arena assault, and I encountered something really scary - Brave Ike with Steady Breath, Aether, and Wrath. My fully maxed Ike with Steady Breath, Aether, and QR cannot take him out... This is messed up...

Do you see why I've stood by Triangle Adept Xander for so long. XD Everyone got so caught up in the Lyn hype I swear they still don't understand how bloody broken Brave Ike is.

My build is pretty simple but effective. Not sure what I should replace. His partner is Ninian btw and they are A rank.

I'm a big fan of vantage
Sadly didn't have vantage 3 but 2 works quite well with his power
Blue mages are the only real threat and even those rarely survive the battle

I'm still building mine out as my armor team is incomplete. I have only one Effie, and it's a 4 star -Def/+HP one. I'm not really sure if I want to invest the 20k into one with such bad IVs. I've been using the Panic Ploy seal, Pivot, Black Luna, Steady Stance, Quick Riposte or Vantage, and Ward Armor and have been pairing him with Hector.

I'm happy with my Offense team(rk20 all the seasons) and dont want to run him.
So i built him with either Arena defense or 4th member of my Armor emblem in mind.
I dont have an Amelia which somewhat weakens my Armor player phase. I didn't want to fodder my only BIke and I think Wrath without SB loses a lot of its meaning, where the contrary might work wonders, so I let Nephenee live her life.
Not having Armor march in Armor emblems means i'm all about DC (Effie, Hector and Sheena) so BK Comes in handy and fulfill that role. I could run tana for a more player phase hybrid team but even with the extra mouvement i dont really appreciate thé playstyle of Armor emblem.
So, it comes to a well known build that lets me sit them in their corner and me not trying to get their clunky ass all over the map:
Alondite
Swap
B Luna
Fury 3
Vantage 3
Hone Armor

Fury to push his stats and chip his health, vantage, well vantage :)

I’ve got sort of a funky build for him! I am pretty new to FEH but I really love how he can support Lissa (his S rank support). I use his Wings of Mercy 3 for mobility as well as healing allies with Lissa. I’ve given him more of a supportive role when I play since my main team has him, Lissa, Ike (Vanguard Legend), and Fell Incarnation Robin. Both Robin and Ike just eat every enemy that comes to them (they really S support as well) so if they do get hurt and need healing, but are in a place where Lissa could die, BK can go to them with Wings and then use Reciprical Aid, and then Lissa can heal him. Usually the way I do this is that BK will be under 25 HP so it triggers Lissa’s Rehabilitate, which brings him up to ~50 HP, usually. It’s very helpful in Lunatic when I need all my units to survive. I’ve done the same with Ike and Reciprical Aid. He doesn’t have Wings since he can move two spaces, but it still works since I like to keep my units close together (but sometimes that messes me up).

I’m working on getting BK to S support with me/summoner, but so far this tragedy has carried me through a lot!
