Texas is a 5★ Pioneer Vanguard who specializes in DP-Recovery and Crowd-Control. As a Pioneer Vanguard, Texas has high HP and DEF and can block two enemies, with more ATK than other Pioneers at the cost of less HP and DEF.
Texas' skills represent both her specializations to generate DP for the team and dispatch groups of enemies:
- The first skill, Charge γ, is an advanced DP generation skill that automatically generates 12 DP whenever it is fully charged. Charge γ is best used in Annihilation where the automatic DP generation is disabled and operations that likely to run for a long time.
- The second skill, Sword Rain, have Texas call forth a rain of energy blades upon enemies in a radius of 2 tiles around her, doing two instances of Arts damage and stunning the victims for a short time as well as generating DP. Sword Rain allows Texas to both damage and disrupt enemy formations, buying enough time for DPS dealers to take them down which will help the player in the long run due to the increased DP generation. The stun is especially useful in stopping speedy enemies like Breakers and unblockable Wraiths dead in their tracks. Do note that Sword Rain has a somewhat high SP cost, despite the relatively high initial SP, so its usage should be timed correctly for maximum effectiveness. Still, due to its uses, Sword Rain is recommended as Texas' go-to skill.
Texas' talent, Tactical Delivery, increases the initial DP count by 1 (2 at Elite 2) when she is in the squad. This can make all the difference especially with Operators whose Potential is close to or at maximum, as they usually have a lower DP cost, or just to allow the player to deploy high-cost Operators earlier.
Texas' SOL-Y Operator Module, Private Field Supply Package, reduces her DP cost by 4 when she is deployed for the first time (and only the first time in an operation), in addition to increasing her maximum HP, ATK, and DEF; once upgraded, Tactical Delivery now also increases the damage dealt by Texas' Sword Rain.
Interestingly, Texas' base skills reflect her relationship with Exusiai and Lappland:
- The first base skill, Feud, increases Trading Post order acquisition rate when she is assigned together with Lappland to one by a whopping 65%, but increases her morale drain rate by 0.3 per hour.
- The second base skill, Tacit Understanding, reduces her morale drain rate when she is assigned to the same Trading Post as Exusiai by 0.3 per hour, which is enough to counteract the morale drain rate increase of Feud.
As such, once Texas, Lappland, and Exusiai are promoted to Elite 2, they can provide the best Trading Post buff in the game when the three are stationed together.
Overall, Texas is more of a "glass cannon" Vanguard who is capable of dishing out high damage while not being able to take as much. But her Sword Rain makes this competent courier and combatant a valuable Crowd-Control Operator who can facilitate the rapid deployment of her teammates. As of Fan Appreciation Event, Texas is also awarded for completing the eighth phase of pinboard missions, making her very accessible for most players.
