YES — a solid pick if you lack a reliable Defender tank, since she taunts, self-heals, and buffs squad reload speed all at once; useful across every game mode.

Skill Investment Priority
Skill investment roadmap (Skill 1/Skill 2/Burst): 1/1/1 → 4/4/4 → 7/7/7 → 10/10/10. Why: Both Skill 1 (DEF buff) and Skill 2 (DEF stacking + burst gauge) serve her tanking role and matter as much as her burst (taunt + heal) — invest evenly across all three.
Strengths & Weaknesses
Strengths
- Her burst taunts and self-heals based on damage taken, letting her tank comfortably on her own.
- +63% reload speed for the whole squad, a big boost for magazine-hungry Attackers.
Weaknesses
- Very low normal-attack multiplier (13.65% ATK) like most Defenders — she can't carry DPS.
- Skill 2 needs to build up 4 stacks and wait for Full Burst to end before it pays off, which is slow in short fights.
