Tequila is a 5★ Liberator Guard who specializes in Nuker and the welfare Operator of Dossoles Holiday, awarded from the Honors Showcase once the player collects 12 Miss Ch'en Commemorative Medal.png Miss Ch'en Commemorative Medal with Tequila's Token.png Tequila's Token available in Mama John's for 250 Mama John's Voucher.png, 300 Mama John's Voucher.png, 350 Mama John's Voucher.png, 400 Mama John's Voucher.png, and 500 Mama John's Voucher.png. What defines Tequila as a Liberator Guard is that he will only attack and block enemies while his skill (see below) is active, which has a range of 1 tile ahead and to the sides of him (similar to that of SilverAsh with Rules of Survival), and can block up to two enemies or three at Elite 2. To offset this, Tequila will gain an ATK buff which starts after his skill is not active that gradually increases up to 200% of his base ATK over 40 seconds (at a rate of 5% ATK per second), which will be reset when the skill expires after being activated. Tequila also have a surprisingly very high HP for a Guard and a relatively low DP cost to balance his drawbacks.

Talent

Waiting Game causes enemies that attacked Tequila while his skill is not active to take Arts damage by a portion of his ATK.

Skills

Both of Tequila's skills increase the damage he deals in each attack.

  1. Decisive Action also buffs Tequila's ASPD.
  2. Esoteric Bladework also extends Tequila's range to 2×3 tiles with a 1-tile extension ahead of him (like that of Heavyshooter Snipers before Elite 1) and make his attacks hit up to two enemies at once. Esoteric Bladework can be Overcharged, in which case Tequila's attacks will hit up to three enemies instead and the skill also lasts twice as long, and can be manually deactivated at any point throughout its duration.

Base skill

Investment α increases the profit from high-yield Trading Post Pure Gold.png Pure Gold orders by 250 LMD icon.png and reduces Tequila's morale drain rate by 0.25 per hour while he is assigned to one. At Elite 2, Investment α becomes Investment β with a higher profit increase of 500 LMD icon.png.

Summary

Tequila is a solid introduction to the Liberator Guards who prefers to take time before unleashing his full force at his enemies for devastating results. Tequila's might, once unleashed, is really worth the wait.
