Texas the Omertosa is an Executor Specialist and the alternate form of Texas. With her third skill, after deployment, she immediately deals Arts damage twice to all surrounding enemies and Stuns them for a few seconds, then releases a Sword Rain within range every second that deals Arts damage and Stuns for a few seconds.
As a juggernaut, Penance cannot be healed by her allies. With her talents, she can gain a Barrier when defeating an enemy. Each time Penance is attacked while under the effect of her own Barrier, she can deal Arts damage to the attackers.
Vigil, the Tactician, excels in mid-range combat. He can summon a Wolfpack consisting of two “Wolf Shadows” at the Tactical Point to assist in combat. The number of “Wolf Shadows” increases over time up to a certain limit.
Lunacub is a Deadeye from the Sniper branch. She prioritizes attacking the enemy with the lowest Defense within range first. When using her second skill, she gains increased Attack Speed and Camouflage for a few seconds. Defeating an enemy during this skill’s duration grants Camouflage an extra few seconds.
As a Core Caster, his attack inflicts “Arts Fragility” on all Aerial units within range. When he activates the first skill, he prioritizes attacking Aerial enemies and his Attack Speed increases.
Her second skill can increase damage she’s taken and also her Attack Speed. Each attack of hers deals Physical damage and has a chance to Stun the target for a few seconds.
The event introduces new “EPOQUE” outfits for Passenger, Rosmontis, Nearl the Radiant Knight, Honeyberry and Sora. Also, a brand-new set of themed furniture, “Siracusan Retro” is available to purchase. What’s more, the re-edition “EPOQUE” outfits for Pallas, Rosa, Andreana, Texas Doberman, as well as other 52 outfits will be available again at the Outfit Store during the event.
