Sounds like a pretty classic Support Party Member. "Their purpose is supporting their allies..." Protecting and Amplifying seem to be right in line.
Example: In the gacha game "Eversoul", there's a character named Eve, who is classified as a Defender despite her skillset being in line with a Supporter. In battle, she takes on one of two states depending on whether she was the highest in ATK at the start of battle. For this query, I'll be talking about her support state "Bound Soul".
In this state, she links herself with the character with the highest ATK at certain points during combat, for a max duration of 24 seconds, at least until she recasts the skill that does the whole stat check again and the status quo remains the same. She then provides said character with two buffs:
This means that she is a very good character to bring whenever you have a character that can practically clean the battlefield quick, even at low rarity levels. This also means that she is both very vulnerable and that she is almost useless in battle outside of her buff, making a 5v5 match to more of a 4v5.
Are there any gameplay tropes that would fit this character archetype?
