Should You Get Siege? | Operator Siege Review [Arknights]

[@FrostByte262]

Ladies and gentlemen Have you finished the CC#5 Risk 18?

[@freyanubis3891]

Ah Yes just clear it 2 hour ago

[@nyuuni0121]

Cleared it since Day 1 of the event

Short answer: Yes

[@syahmellow5114]

Not yet. I think my limit is only on risk 9 since this is my first CC. I'll to tackle more if I can

[@maniacmohawk5513]

Sadly nope **cries in 3-4 months old account**

[@ХанюКонсервотриче]

I checked and her 2 talent works during the activated skill 3. That is, her 3 skill sp is charged when it is activated with her 2 talents. Thus, you can use skill 3 constantly, if there are a lot of weak enemies.

[@maicee7603]

thanks!

[@Aureels]

Skill 3 make her basically a good guard :)

I'm glad i have siege, i rarely use her now but in my early stages in Arknights she's a big help like alot-lot, she's like a guard with low dp cost she tank most of the damage of the enemies.

[@xLuis89x]

Same, until I got bagpipe, siege mas doing a LOT of work, hope she gets a buff Also, I bought her from the shop, and even to this day I HAVE NO REGRETS, she is still waifu AF, and there are some stages where I need to use her

She is one of my first 6* operators. Even now I consistently use her even tho I have Saga.

One word: _"Excalibonk!"_ As always: Cheers everyone! ^_^

[@sebastianrochefort6763]

All hail the queen of England!

[@Disappointed_Philosoraptor]

I got something to add for new players: Yes,she's worth investing in both for immediate value and also in the future. While Bagpipe, Saga and others may be "the meta" meta, Siege can accomplish the job more than good enough for all content you'll see in the game, even CC. She can even do the dps guard/bosskiller job up to chapter 6-ish if you don't have another operator for that, but most importantly... Watching her spin to win with with S2 or big bonk enemies down left, right and center with S3 is just immensely satisfying.

[@alyssums3481]

Siege is my very first 6 star and has been in my squad in literally every stage since the start. Too bad I wasn't able to buy her skin.

[@Vindicee]

Considering how Saga changed my team comp to an extent, I'm just using my Siege as a pseudo defender right now

[@DGrayEX]

Her S3 is actually super good for any CCs that ban Guards or multiply their cost. Just plop her down and you have a low-cost high-damage Guard that can even bonk high-Def enemies at a good rate.

[@axios4702]

I got Siege through recruitment and she is my only 6* vanguard. She can hold the line perfectly at the beggining of a battle and her high attack and defense means she is a perfectly good reserve unit to keep around and deploy in an emergency.

[@ReigoVassal]

Skill 3 is definitely for that moment where "I need Guard but i can't deploy one" kind of situation. Or you just want some dp cheap Guard.

[@GonSlapper]

She was my very first 6* and her art and memes were the reason i got into Arknights. Also, skill 3 is good when stage forgids Guards and you really need one. Her stun saved my ass against Mudrock rematch in ToW

[@takii2079]

Evil FrostByte 262 be like : Should you get this operator? Short answer : no Long answer : no

[@xLuis89x]

PASSenger banner in a nutshell, lmao

[@aubey3880]

Bagpipe and Flagbearers are good for Siege, since she can focus on damage rather than dp generation, so she can be a helidrop s2 or run s3

[@Neutral_1zed]

She used to be the best vanguard of the game, been dethroned sadly ever since then, but she will always still be my adorable lioness.

[@BINI-04424]

having a good vanguard as new player is a must, dp is a vital mechanic in this game, it's not required to have them, but if you want to progress and you want your other ops to shine you should pull Siege

[@Deng73]

No matter what, Verna always be > Saga for me. She's been with me from the... day one, I guess (she and Exusiai were my first two 6*), through hell and highwater and never, never let me down. #ThroneForTheTrueLionQueen

[@eis6570]

4:37 "You're underestimating my power!" *me who runs Siege, Texas and Myrtle in the squad* on the topic of Siege, She's really useful as a low cost 2 block guard. she's a good starter Vanguard.

[@Lumina777]

I have both flagbearers, E2 bagpipe, E2 Saga, and E2 Siege. She’s probably outclassed by the others, but she was a hard carry early game for me. I have to use her

[@durandus676]

Siege drastically improves the survivability of blue vanguards when I’m prepping challenge nodes. Imo she pairs well with other vanguards. That 8% is monsterous if you can give other buffs too and turns slightly beefy vanguards into pseudo defenders with a FL nian S3

[@cursedcat9557]

I mean she's saber why not get her Who wouldn't want a saber class servant

[@mustaphazouaoui1454]

I use Siege as a Defender Guard who can gain DP and I think she's amazingly strong, may my waifu prosper !

[@giotto_4503]

Siege was my first ever 6*, she's still going strong in my main squad.

[@emilianojiudodoro]

Hey bro, I'm from Argentina ... your videos really help me, and they're entertaining, keep going!

[@mommydiegroe1716]

She's my desired operator ever since starting from the game but, unfortunately, I grew without her and got babysitted by Myrtle and Texas. Don't get me wrong, she's great, though. I've been using her in Anni 3 in my second account and she's doing perfectly fine to compensate for operators that are quick to generate DP.

[@Arknights_Doktah_Pedro]

I was wondering when this video was gonna come out. Since I got Siege through recruitment.

[@Kyokka]

Short answer of 2024: no, absolutely no need to

[@TheWrathfulOni]

As someone who moved away from using standard bearers, siege is my go to and has practically been glued into my team for 3 years

[@jamiru2807]

Hello Frostbyte! I’ve been relying on your operator reviews ever since I started playing a week ago. I was wondering, can you make a review about Angelina?

[@JeckoPlays]

I used everything EVERYTHING FOR FPS LA LION BOTA- I MEAN SIEGE and I couldn’t get HER through banner pulls T-T I luckily ended up having just enough gold stuff after blowing everything on the banner T-T so I did get her... but at what cost...I have NO REGRETS THOUGH

[@mohamadwaziramrimohamadyus8139]

I got her on the same day as Seiba dropped by my FGO account. Still using her as vanguard and also pseudo-guard until today. Long live Victoria Alexandrina!

[@oberon5657]

Used our beloved gangster lion fairly consistently despite having both flagbearers and Bagpipe - that two block tankiness is just really handy :)

[@farisramadhan9200]

Got her for my first playthrough, She is definitely worth it. She carries me till now

[@theminercet]

the vanguard aint vanning no more

[@faylein1357]

One of trap for my noob self actually focusing too much on Siege, there's many stage that can be cleared easily just with E2 Myrtle + 1 Vanguard (Myrtle not even hard to get now) For newbie Fang + Myrtle E2 can go far already, put resources on DPS instead of Vanguard, sure you might be need Siege at some point so just keep in mind to E2 her at some point

[@macsenpai7006]

She's not bad or a trap for newbie players, she's actually begginer friendly compared to most Vanguards. People just want to exagerate things just because she got powercrept. If you had already invested on her, that's fine. You should at least M1 her Skill 2, coz it will allow her to store 3 charges for her spins and it's also cheap.

[@Dravion69]

If you bring bagpipe, siege s3 can be used instantly. Strong guard helidrop with cheap dp cost👌

[@aldovk6681]

I remember getting shishiro botan on my first 10 pull for newbies

[@MNA-zn4ni]

She was my first 6 star. Praise be not Seiba. My default squad has her and either Texas or Bagpipe.

[@Aureels]

Vanguard are also used to be a early wall for light fast unit int the begining of the level. Siege is very effective in that role (I usually use Myrtle + Mountain to do that work, Mountain being awesome to hold a line for a very low cost, but Siege can do both work if ennemy come fast)

[@Foxfiend]

Her skill 3 should not be underestimated. It makes her a VERY capable "guard". Sure you could just use some actual guard but how many guards do you know with a block 2 that costs only 14 dp? Even someone like Cutter costs 21 dp! If you need a guard but you struggle with dp on the stage Siege can be a huge life saver.

[@xXDESTINYMBXx]

Me looks at e2 spectre, block:3 ^^

[@Foxfiend]

@@xXDESTINYMBXx Well my point is the DP cost mainly and not the block count. Siege is much cheaper compared to any guard (except brawlers) yet she is actually a very good fighter that even has good versatility with skill 2 and 3.

[@xXDESTINYMBXx]

@@Foxfiend she's my first 6* so she always gets a place in my roster

[@exoticcats6119]

I just got her, thanks for making a recent video on her!

[@IJNAoba9-25-26]

Since I don't have Bagpipe or Saga, I have devised my Own meta For her; Gopnik & Lion, where I'll use Zima's S2 with Siege's S3 to deal more punch than it should, without worrying about Aak to kill her on the spot.

[@EmeraldDragonfly57]

I've wanted her since I first began and now I can finally say I have her..now there's only two operators I want left..

[@emred4653]

i had her from start and she worked greatly so far. Used her as a semi defender for most maps thanks to her tankiness and aoe damage with s2. Not sure how good is she in maps past 7 though

[@drewhughes2220]

I think siege is a solid addition to any team because she may not have a real flashy skill but she has really good stats and she buffs all vanguards including herself and her second skill at M3 does hit like a truck against regular enemies Plus she has one of the coolest artworks... A hot badass lion girl with a mean hammer

[@ganivlach]

I've just tried to pull that banner until first 5* in order to increase potential of BP or Red. I the very first pull I have got Siege... Is that was game's excuse for 230th pull Kal'tsit?

[@bonbon3829]

Finally, someone who actually explains this so accurately instead of just sayin "siege is bad"

[@littlelw319]

just wait until she get her excalibur and maybe avalon too while she is at i....wait wrong game.

[@STREEEEEET]

It's a weird feeling. Got her from recruitment but even tho i needed a more defensive oriented vanguard since Texas is made of paper i'm still kinda disappointed that i lost the 50/50 to bagpipe. My other option were try my 33% luck to get Ifrit or end up with mostima or ceobe when i already have Eyja.

[@curutdapur1]

I keep using siege until these days just because she's a nice solo lane vanguard, and all i need just myrtle and one healer to keep her stay alive

[@maicee7603]

she's blaze before blaze is introduced

[@conortheslayer]

Eh, I personally don't recommend siege. I feel like f2p vanguards like courier can fill her role just fine and if you have bagpipe she just absolutely shits on her. Siege just currently feels outclassed in every department by other operators and if you want a generic block 2 gen dp just use the 4 stars

[@RDdyreigns]

That and saga kinda outclasses her in every department. I feel you 100%

[@pharaoh4119]

Anything for that front flip

[@Shiro-001]

I wonder though, have you had a vid where you go "Short answer: *No.*"

[@boylesmono5764]

I use Siege all the time to hold a lane forever since she's cheap, kinda tanky, and clears mob without time constraint. I hope future module give da queen a buff on her niche.

[@ExamplePrime]

Should you get Siege? Short Answer: Yes. Long Answer: Maybe because A B C D and consider E but she still really hurts when she backflips so yolo

[@GhemaDiva]

in my most stages, usually i bring siege , saga and bagpipe. I rarely using mytrle since most of stages rarely need dp printer ( even elysium im not leveling him ) well i like them so mostly i switch between of them for manual run. so can someone explain how to combo bagpipe and mytrle? i dont really understand how it works?? as always thanks for video

[@raynardrapael5559]

Deploy Myrtle Myrtle gain initial sp from bagthigh's talent Activate Myrtle's skill Use your DP for other non-vanguard operators

[@rayzixz9399]

Any Vanguard will obtain 6 sp(8 if 5 pot) after deployed if Bagpipe is in team,which let you activate Myrtle & Elysium skill right away after deployed(require M3 to do so) Usually they are the first one deployed in battlefield to generate DP faster(Bagpipe just in team for SP and sometimes used to hole the lane for a while) Also if you took DP regeneration risk in CC,Myrtle & Elysium is a must or you'll have a hard time planning your strategy

[@zel6010]

What bagpipe + myrtle does basically allows myrtle to use skill 1 in 3 seconds at M3 (1 second if pot 5 bagpipe)

[@GhemaDiva]

ah i see , i thought its kinda combo for helidrop or something like that. thanks for explain

[@macsenpai7006]

On contrary to the popular belief. Seige is not really bad. Myrtle and Siege is usually enough for most stage. Siege also compliments with Bagpipe very well. Bagpipe's talent will allow Siege to instantly activate her Skill 3 on deployment, turning her into a Skadi with way cheaper DP cost, for helidropping. She's not bad, she's just powercreeped by Saga who has manual skill activation. She's still worth having if you don't have Saga.

[@Konpekikaminari]

2 years later I'd like to add to the Seige/Bagpipe synergy thing- while Bagpipe turns Seige into a helidrop, she buffs Bagpipe's attack in return

[@Sasha11711]

[@r.id.2236]

Is FrostByte's operator review video will always say "yes" For you to try getting that operator in the review? Yes 👍

[@bitboss1385]

siege and myrtle is one of the best combo

[@leemilene]

I used Siege in my Risk 18 for this CC because I don't have Saga and my Bagpipe isn't leveled up. I must say, while Siege and Bagpipe are with E1 Lvl 60, Siege could help me better than Bagpipe itself and thus Siege is pretty tank for a vanguard so she could take some damage before I deployed the other characters. I don't use Siege as much for now, but she's still pretty good for beginners in AK and for the people who doesn't have other options for vanguards like Saga/Bagpipe or even is still missing some DPS

[@vynnvincero]

Siege real name is Vina not Verna, it has been a confirmed mistakes in her profile
