Really depends on what you're using him for. Overall, Zhuge Liang (El-Melloi II) aka Waver is an obvious choice. For the QP daily, pairing him with Riders like Francis Drake and Altria Pendragon (Santa Alter) are good choices. Tamamo Cat and Lancelot also help out if your just going against weaker enemies in the dailys.

Zhuge is literally good for any team. I would wait until the Accel Zero Order to try summoning him though.

I personally have Heracles as last resort in my party with a Kaleidoscope CE so I can slaughter people in case of an emergency.

The thing with Herc is though that he can be used in almost any team type you want just like Zhuge.

I have an Arts Crit Team made of David, Andersen and Shiki in the frontline. If Shiki dies, David can keep him alive for one extra attack and buff his damage quite a bit. If David dies, Shiki just drops about 25 to 30 Critical Stars and makes him hit a harder as well. If Andersen dies, both benefits can be taken advantage of but I can no longer buff so going full buster would be my choice then. A pretty universal team in my opinion.

A team with Chevalier d'Eon (or Leonidas, but you asked for 4-Stars) may actually work good too as he can keep him alive for at least 3 more turns by tanking away all attacks (third ascension required though). Don't forget to apply evade when facing Archers if you do that though.

Hercules biggest strength is being a back line soloist with his max bond craft essence. In that case he is actually better off with no support at all. If you do want him on the front line take Zhang Liang or Nero Bride to boost his durability damage and np generation.

As many have answered, I’ll just add a little tidbit of information. Herc is so often delegated as the back line emergency get out of jail Servant due to a singular (and elusive) fact that many new players don’t know about, if there’s only one Servant left standing on the field dies and subsequently revived by a guts skill, the enemy’s turn will end despite it being a one-hit turn. This makes him incredibly potent because his Bond CE allows him a free 3-times resurrection upon death, easily allowing for a BBC or Buster Brave Chain, not Big Black C**k. However there’s a way of making him work as a frontline DPS. You’ll need two exclusive supports to help him out. My recommendations would be Herc/Hans/Waver which offers substantial buffs and debuff options (as well as healing from Hans) or just go for the tried and tested Herc/Mash/Jeanne with a heavy emphasis on keeping Herc alive for as long as possible with a combination of Invulnerability skills, teamwide defensive buffs and stalling utility. Another possible combination would be to team Herc with Waver and Nero Bride which sacrifices survivability for an added layer of offensive capability in the form of an offensive NP.
