Review
Saken is one of the three protagonists in Archeland. Similar to Belet and Avia, by progressing through the Dimensional Rift, you will be rewarded with shards and materials to not only upgrade him up to rank 9 but also upgrade his rarity from N to SSR (and thanks to this his base stats and scaling will match the SSR rank). On top of that, from the Dimensional Rift, you will also get dupes for his special weapon (swordbow), so you can easily max it.
Saken is a Lightning Warrior who depending on the skills you pick can fulfill many roles. For once, he can teleport to an ally and support him with Escort skill (he will take damage instead of them when they are attacked), but compared to Tanks he can only Escort once per turn, but that's often enough to save them. On top of that, he can buff up to 4 allies' PDEF after every action which makes it easier to counter physical enemies. Still, you can also go full offensive and use skills that debuff enemies or convert their buffs into the Current debuff - pair them with the rage passive that further increases his own damage and you will get a hard-hitting murder machine.
Still, he won't be able to do all that in the early game, as his stats will be low compared to SSR characters and you will need to upgrade his rank and rarity first.
And let's not forget that at level 35 he will unlock his Leader Skill that's also very easy to activate as it only requires a Tank and a Priest in the team.
Overall, everyone should raise the 3 protagonists, as they give you access to a maxed character that will be used in PVE content that they counter.
Pros & Cons
Pros
you can max him for free,
very versatile - can fill many roles in the team depending on what skills you chose,
