Theory Build for Lukas best boi

I've decided to +10 my Lukas and I was on my way to improve only his Def when I recalled his big issue with mages.
So I've thought about ways to improve his Res a little and I've come up with some build so here goes my theoritical build for a neutral Lukas :

-Berkut's Lance (Res refinement) giving him +11 Res
-Sol or Bonfire
-Distant Counter
-Quick Riposte
-Panic Ploy (to check most blade tomes)
-Distant Def seal

With that build, a neutral +10 Lukas goes from 21 Res to 38 Res against mages but I'm not stopping there, here's a potential support build that could be run with Airzura : Hagoita, Geyser Dance 2, Drive Res 2 and Drive Def seal. If Airzura's support is Lukas, she can grant him 11 more Res AND Def what would bring him to 49 Res against mages and 53 Def against melee units (59 against archers). I don't know what to choose between +Def or +Res IV so I've chosen a neutral Lukas for my example.

I'd choose to give Lukas Sol in order to maximize his tankiness but he could go with Bonfire as well.

What do any of you think about that kind of build ?

Noice build

Anything I could ever do. I’d just change Sol to Bonfire because it helps him deal a lot more damage unless you want to give Aether through Sol, because if so, keep Sol and change it to Aether.

I mean.... eh? you could just go Gwendolyn, Shiro or even Nephenee for better mixed tanks. Even Oboro outclasses him completely as a mixed tank.

The build itself is very different but requires heavy, HEAVY investment and it still falls flat. even with 49 res he is going to take quite a bit damage from green and blue mages and because the stat with investment is res his defense becomes lacking and he will lose matchups he would normally win.

sure its creative but its more of a meme build than optimal.

Keep in mind that many people want to build units that are their personal favorite characters from the series. Let them do whatever they want.

keep in mind this was simple advise.

its a meme build not optimal.
didn't say you can't play the game how you want

Yeah but Oboro is not Lukas.

yeah yeah. its just interesting how people often want to put characters into roles they are bad in. in this case, Lukas, has the lowest res out of all lances and one of the lowest speed stats so he is THE worst mage tank out of all lance units.
even then do as you wish

I just want to improve his flaws for a better survivability, 49 Res for "the worst mage tank" is pretty nice I guess.

just remember that there is a good chance that the enemy has similar stat investments in attack and speed so its not enough in reality. that set requires the entire team to play around one unit but imagine the same for the enemies. still dies to all dragons and mages. maybe he'll survive reds but thats about it.
sorry if I ruined your day by critisizing the build

I don't especially like Lukas for mixed defense builds, but you're doing well there. I prefer just use deflect magic seal and let his HP do the work. Charge an ignis, blow someone to bits
