Tapion [Hero's Mission]

Rating: A-

[Heros Mission] Tapion is a very good unit, he has a built-in Critical and he is capable of tanking very well thanks to the combination of the DEF boost he receives from his Passive and the ATK lowering he inflicts upon Super Attack; Tapion is also an orb-changer and his Super Attack is completely farmable.

Tapion can currently be used on Super TEQ and on Resurrected Warriors.

Tapion is a great choice as a floater on this team, his orb-changing Passive generates rainbow Ki spheres that [Astounding Transformation] Super Saiyan 3 Goku (Angel) can use to boost his ATK, he can activate Experienced Fighters for [Golden Fist] SS3 Goku and he can greatly help out in Super Battle Road with his good defense and ATK lowering. Is Tapion a unit you should always bring on this team? No, if you have SS3 Goku it would be better to have only Over in a Flash units, but even in that case Tapion can be useful: his orb-changing Passive opens paths, making it easier for the LR to get a lot of Ki at once.

Tapion's orb-changing mechanic can be quite useful on this team that lacks synergy, he will make it easier to Super Attack consistently; in addition to this Tapion does have "Revival" to link with the Leader of the team and Galactic Invasion Full Power Boujack (Galactic Warriors). If you lack units for this team, Tapion can be a very good floater; under [Emperors True Splendor] Golden Frieza (Angel)'s Leader Skill he is an excellent tank.

Tapion's Super Attack causes supreme damage and lowers the enemy's ATK by 20%, very good and not so common among good Super type units; his 12 Ki multiplier is 145%, above average.

Tapion has the same Leader Skill as [Grim Reaper of Death's Rampage] Super Saiyan 3 Gotenks, the previous Dokkan Fest Leader for TEQ types; it's outdated as a Leader Skill, but it can be used in Dokkan Battlefield.

Tapion receive an 80% boost to both ATK and DEF at start of turn, which is respectable, and a 30% chance to perform a Critical; so far we have only two other units that can do this. Tapion is also a very good orb-changer, changing STR Ki spheres into rainbow ones; the difference between this and other types of orb-changing Passive is that this one opens up paths, whereas the others close them.

Links are not that great, the only notable ones are Revival for Ki, that can actually see some usage on both Super TEQ and Resurrected Warriors, and Experienced Fighters for Super TEQ; Tapion does also get Fierce Battle, which is good. "Hero", "Rival Duo" and Brainiacs are all very niche links and are unlikely to be active.

While it’s true that Tapion gets a chance to perform a Critical from his Passive just like [Second Super Saiyan] Super Saiyan Trunks (Teen), that chance is not as high as the one he would get from his Potential System being a TEQ Type; the ideal build would probably be lv.15 Additional and lv.11 Critical. The Potential System Critical and the one coming from the Passive do not stack together.

Tapion has a completely farmable Super Attack, you can use [Timbre of Courage] Tapion to raise his Super Attack Level; the unit drops as a base SSR, making it possible to have a 100% success rate.
