Yumi is a Limited unit in collaboration with Senran Kagura. She is a Magic Water DPS who can stack DoTs on her enemies, ramping the damage they take each turn.

Check out my other Character Guides:

Strengths and Weaknesses

Solid spammable base damage.
Damage ramps up significantly in longer content.

Yumi needs to sustain her DoTs on the same target each turn, or she'll lose all stacks on them.
Slightly awkward to use with Teresse.

Costumes

Yumi has 1 costume. Dancing Snowflake is a spammable skill that applies stackable DoTs on her enemies.

Costume Designs

Yumi has solid, spammable damage, and only for 3 SP after upgrades. This makes her pretty good in general content already.

However, she has an additional unique mechanic in her stackable DoTs. Each time she casts her skill, she applies 5 stacks of DoT on her targets. This damage is negligible at first, but after 3 or so casts, the damage starts becoming very scary. This makes her shine in longer content such as Fiend Hunt.

Do note however that the DoT lasts only for 3 turns, so she needs to continuously cast her skill to refresh the DoT duration. If she misses even one turn of casting on an enemy, their stacks will go back to 0 on her next turn. Another thing to keep in mind is that she wants to be paired with Beachside Angel Teresse, who buffs DoTs really well. However, you will have to be careful as anyone else in the party attacking the same enemy as Yumi will turn off Teresse's DMG amp against that enemy for that turn.

Key Upgrades: Range and SP Upgrades, DMG Upgrades are generally good, while DoT upgrades are good for longer content.

Building Yumi

Yumi has slightly different gear depending on whether you're using her in PvP or PvE.

This exclusive weapon is a decent boost to Yumi's DMG. It's not necessary to have, but this is a limited weapon.
