As a seasoned Brown Dust player with countless hours spent honing my strategy and perfecting my team compositions, I can confidently say that the optimal build for Yumi in PvP, especially when paired with Helena, is truly a game-changer.

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.

To maintain Yumi’s damage-over-time (DoT) effects on a single target, it is crucial that she reapplies them every turn, otherwise, she will lose all accumulated stacks on the target.

Costumes

Yumi possesses a single costume, and the move “Dancing Snowflake” is one she can repeatedly use to inflict Durability Over Time (DoT) effects on her adversaries, which can be accumulated.

Respected Master

Very Front

As a devoted Ice Pillar enthusiast, here’s my take on the skill description in first person:

Skill Potential 1
DMG +30%

Skill Potential 2
SP Cost -1

Skill Potential 3
Range Upgrade

+1	+2	+3	+4	+5
SP Cost	Magic DMG	DoT	Magic DMG	DoT
5 ▸ 4	30% ▸ 60%	10% ▸ 15%	60% ▸ 90%	15% ▸ 20%

Yumi deals substantial, repeatable damage at a cost of just 3 SP once upgraded, making her quite effective in most types of gameplay.

Yet, she boasts an extra exceptional feature with her accumulative Damage-over-Time (DoT) effects. Every time she uses her ability, she layers 5 instances of DoT onto her targets. Initially, the damage is insignificant, but after a few casts, it escalates into quite a threat. Consequently, she excels in longer battles such as Fiend Hunt.

Keep in mind that the Dot effect only lasts for three turns, so it’s crucial for her to consistently use her skill to extend the duration. Failure to do so on an enemy’s turn will reset the stacks to zero on her next move. It’s also important to team her with Beachside Angel Teresse as she amplifies Dot damage significantly. However, be cautious when other party members attack the same enemy as Yumi, as this will deactivate Teresse’s damage amplification against that enemy for that specific turn.

Improvements Highlights: Enhancements to Range and Special Abilities, Damage Increases are typically beneficial, while Durability over Time (DoT) enhancements are ideal for extended gameplay.

Building Yumi

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

This unique weapon, known as Kurokage’s Fan, offers a considerable increase in Yumi’s magical attack. While it’s not an essential item, its exclusivity makes it a valuable addition, particularly for those who can acquire it. The main stats are enhanced magic attack and critical damage multiplier.
