Is Kira Kitazato good?

Kira Kitazato (Messa) is a two-mode Physical Assassin. His Doctor mode applies Bleed that deals a share of foes' Max HP each turn, around 10%, which ignores affinities and needs no support, making him an excellent cheese damage dealer.

The catch is that endgame modes routinely give enemies large percentage Damage Down buffs that shut this off completely, and his Ripper mode only works at Awareness 6, where his Awareness growth is poor anyway.

Strengths

  • Max HP Bleed ignores affinities
  • Self-sufficient damage
  • Great for cheesing tough fights

Weaknesses

  • Countered in every endgame mode
  • Poor Awareness value
  • Ripper mode needs Awareness 6
