Is Dur-nar good?
Dur-nar leans offense rather than pure tanking as an Arts Protector
Defender, carrying ATK closer to a
Guard's level along with base RES that scales up with promotion. Shielded Counterattack turns her into something like a Ripper
Guard, hitting back with Arts damage instead of just absorbing hits.
That skill runs on defensive SP recovery, though, so it charges slowly outside of active combat, and she pays for the extra offense with a higher DP cost and softer stats than a dedicated Protector
Defender.
Strengths

Guard levels than typical Defenders - Base RES scales up with each promotion

Guard - Accessible and easy to potential up
Weaknesses
- Higher DP cost than standard Protector Defenders
- Lower ATK than Guards and lower DEF than Protector Defenders
- Shielded Counterattack charges slowly outside of combat

Background
Makayla Springthunder is an ex-lieutenant of the Columbian army who were discharged following an altercation with her superior triggered by her stubborn attitude.
The Vulpo has since experienced ups and downs in her life, from being laid off from the local police precinct despite her connection with her sister, to being frequently tricked by security contractors to squeeze her money.
To ease her pain, Makayla often spend her time in bars until she was recruited by Rhodes Island under the codename "Dur-nar" as one of their drill instructors alongside Dobermann and Whislash.
On the battlefield, Dur-nar utilizes a specially-crafted tactical shield and electroshock blade infused with Arts against her foes.
