I’ve put together the Light Cones, Relics, Trace priority, stat priority, teams, and Eidolon verdicts for the best Saber build in this guide, along with a full breakdown of her rotation and which of her Eidolons are actually worth pulling for.
Saber is a 5-star Wind Destruction character from the Fate collaboration, and her whole kit revolves around a resource called Core Resonance that fills up every time an ally, including herself, uses an Ultimate. She converts that resource into a colossal AoE Ultimate hit and a follow-up Enhanced Basic ATK, making her one of the more demanding but rewarding DPS units to actually pilot well.

How to Play Saber: Rotation and Tips
Saber’s Talent, Dragon Reactor Core, grants her a Core Resonance point at the start of battle, and every time any ally uses an Ultimate, she gains more DMG for two turns plus additional Core Resonance. Her Skill, Strike Air: Hammer of the Wind King, hits a target and adjacent enemies, and if she has enough Core Resonance stacked to fully refill her Energy, using it consumes all of that Core Resonance for a much bigger hit and a large Energy refund.
Her Ultimate, Excalibur, has a steep 360 Energy cost but hits every enemy for huge Wind damage, and afterward her next Basic ATK is replaced by the AoE Release, the Golden Scepter.
Watching the white segment on her Energy bar is the key to piloting her well, since that segment shows exactly how much Energy her banked Core Resonance can refund the moment she uses her Skill. Getting these two mechanics right is what separates an average Saber from a genuinely strong one.
