I must remind you that amongst the four-star Sabers, d'Eon has the second-highest HP count, and almost catching up to Atilla while exceeding Okita. And unfortunately, you're right; his main functionality is as a tank. At least his damage is much more decent than Siegfried, and he has more usage than Siegfried's awfully specific kit. His support NP is decent too; he's no Zhuge Liang, but with her NP, he can minimize the damage he can take while allowing other teammates to wallop upon the enemy.

The most common usage with him is by using defense-type CEs like Steel Training or some other gimmicky ones. A great Jeanne alternative that can actually direct damage to himself without Kiritsugu's help. He could tank NP with the dodge skill, then outlast his enemy for two turns with his high HP count.

One of the most obvious drawback is, again, his NP. While the Attack/Defense debuff is no doubt very useful, the amount is very little compared to other four-star debuffers...unless he's more than NP 1. The charm secondary effect can affect anyone...but you need to charge it to have more chance. So you either fire his NP first to debuff enemies and then hit them with your other NPs for more damage...or fire his NP last to gamble on his charm.
