Tennant Reverse 1999 Guide: Top Psychubes & Team Comps
Tennant stands out as a premier shielder and sub-DPS in Reverse: 1999, leveraging her Ultimate to grant team-wide shields while applying Diamond Bullet debuffs that expose enemies to Reality DMG. Her kit shines in prolonged fights, sustaining squads without healers and amplifying Reality DPS through DEF shred and Weakness exposure.
Resonance and Core Mechanics Breakdown
Tennant's strength lies in her S2 (A Shiny Diamond) and Ultimate cycle. Diamond Bullet marks foes, reducing Reality DEF by up to 25% and enabling critical Weakness breaks on subsequent hits.
Shields scale with her ATK (up to 200% at Insight 3), absorbing massive damage while healing on kills via Psychubes. Prioritize R6 duplicates for inheritance like Troupe Owner, boosting shield potency by 30% and adding team ATK buffs.
