—Trait description
Arts Protector Defender, colloquially known as simply Arts Defender, is a branch of the Defenderclass in Arknights.
As their name suggests, Arts Protector Defenders are basically Protector Defenders with the ability to deal Arts damage when attacking, though they can only do so while their skill is active. They also have lower DEF in exchange for some RES and higher ATK, but have an attack range of the same tile as themselves.

A combination of innate RES and high HP makes Arts Protectors among some of the best choices for tanking enemies with Arts attacks, especially the strong ones.
Trivia[]
Arts Protector is currently the only Defender subclass who doesn't have a 6* rarity operator.
