Active: Gain 20 points of Popularity and stun all enemy units in a distance of 3 in front of self for 3 seconds. Passive: When in the team leader position, start battle with 30 points of Popularity. When not the team leader, MGs and SGs on buff tiles gain 100 points of armor-piercing and 30 points of accuracy. When an enemy unit loses Dummy-Links, gain 1 points of Popularity, and when a friendly unit loses Dummy-Links, gain 10 points of Popularity. When Popularity reaches 20 points: inflict 20% vulnerability on all enemies. When Popularity reaches 50 points: damage taken by self and friendly units on the same row is reduced by 10 points. nWhen Popularity reaches 100 points: All enemies deal 40% less damage.
TPS is a powerful support for other Main Tanks, having the ability to to lower damage taken significantly through her various Skill effects, while also making enemies take more damage.
If she is the Echelon Leader (which she should be in almost all use cases), she will apply 20% Vuln to all enemies at the start of battle, and apply the -10 Damage Taken buff after her 6s ICD. In harder fights, by the time her cooldown completes and she activates her Skill again, a combination of friendly Link loss and enemy Link loss would typically already get her to 100 Popularity and activate the 40% Damage debuff.
All her Popularity-based buffs and debuffs are permanent, provided she does not leave the field.
Her Skill also stuns enemies in a short distance in front of herself on activation, which is rarely ever useful, and this is hardly the reason to bring her in an Echelon.
TPS's Popularity-based buffs do not expire and will stay active while she is on the field.
-10 Damage Taken for her column and 40% Damage debuff on enemies makes all but the most dangerous enemies trivial to tank effectively.
In order to get the massive survivability buffs in a timely fashion, TPS almost always wants to be Echelon Leader. As such, she may conflict with certain other Doll choices that also want to be Leader, such as M240L.
While the 20% Vuln and -10 Damage Taken effects only trigger once, the 40% Damage debuff reapplies repeatedly constantly, making it effectively immune to the cleansing effects of Quills of Patmos. The 20% Vuln isn't a generic Vuln debuff and as such also won't be cleansed, making TPS' debuffs entirely Quill immune.
