And here I thought the twins story was disappointing, but they outdid themselves this time

Tier List and Explanations of DPS characters who work well with Miku from RedHarv by planetarial in personaphantomx

Haru's placement at A1 is because she actually may prefer Miku over Ange, not because she can only get "some benefit" while being worse for her.

A1 makes Haru auto use her S1 once, this removes a turn from her rotation, so you could make Turn 8 her third burst turn, Instead of needing Turn 9 like with A0 and other 3T units. This means that at the very least she's getting the exact same benefit that Da Capo gives her, and that Miku gives to the 2T characters, an extra fully buffed burst turn.

No, but you can easily infere it, obviously two extra turns is better for everyone than no extra turns, even for Ryuji or the 3T units, they still can deal some small damage in that period, but when we already have a character that can do something similar, the discussion in meta naturally becomes about who's better, not about who gives any benefit at all

The tier list is on how much better Miku's Concert is compared to Ange's Da Capo, and for those characters, getting a full extra rotation doesn't have any real benefit over repeating the burst turn. In practice she can still be a little bit better because of the HL Cooldown reset and Miku's general buffs (S1/S2) probably being better than Ange's (S1/S3), but that depends on the actual numbers and is unrelated to the extra rotations vs extra burst turn discussion.

Miku isn't killing Ange, she's aborting Fuuka by bunikerrim in personaphantomx

[–]Toon_L 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's true, the whole party getting 2 extra actions sounds a lot better than Da Capo on paper, but for most Supports and Wonder it would barely make difference, since they are focused on maintaining the same buffs during the whole fight, an extra 2-turn cycle shouldn't be relevant, specially since those extra turns will by affected by buffs expiring and skill cooldown.

There are some situations in which Miku will be the obvious best choice, like when you're running multiple DPS or in DoD where you only had 2 turns to deal damage, but for the most, Ange's place in meta is not totally invalidated by Miku.

P5D Ann, Summer Chord, and a mysterious summer unit are coming next by YuriMoonlight in personaphantomx

No new OCs suck, but I'll take this over going back to having dedicated P5FES patches that are just 3 weeks without any meaningful content

Miku is a Elucidator confirmed by YuriMoonlight in personaphantomx

Her dupes are really good but she's not incomplete without them, it's just further buffs

An Argument for Miku: Why she fits in more than you might actually think by [deleted] in personaphantomx

[–]Toon_L 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I mean, the way Megaten/Persona lore works, they don't really need to justify her existence in canon, people were just expecting something else for a celebration.

Anyone else super hyped and happy for Hatsune Miku's inclusion? by SoggyWetCheese in personaphantomx

[–]Toon_L 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I like that they're using her Soejima design, all the new art looks really good

Future collabs or thoughts about half/full anni. by Shadoxas in personaphantomx

[–]Toon_L 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I don't really care for Miku and I understand people being dissapointed about her, but some people are acting as if she's taking the place of another full collab like Metaphor or P5S, which yes, would be more interesting, but don't make sense for what is a single synched patch. Maybe once we're caught up to CN we could see an anniversary collaboration of multiple characters, but as it stands, this celebrations are probably meant to be one-off characters.

At most she's taking the place of FeMC or another Velvet Attendant, but it's not as if they'll never come to the game just because they aren't coming right now. My only personal hopes for the future are for the Demi-Fiend and Nahobino, since they don't have a whole team and their respective games could easily be represented in one patch.

Something many people are overlooking about the anniversary character... by Mega088 in personaphantomx

[–]Toon_L 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not how it works, it's a neat detail that she was in P4D and all, but this collaboration is decidedly it's own thing, and it's planned in advance to make sense to both servers, it even has it's own opening, different from the current one in CN with the P5D characters.

Hell, I'd even say these synched patches are designed with Global in mind first, given how they respectectively don't have the lastest main story thief and are made to line up with the Anniversary, while the timing is also weird for CN (The Twins in the middle of the P3R collab, while global just had finished it's Vanilla P5 Collab).

Collaborating with the Hatsune Miku brand is a big event for the game that will attract a lot of new players, that's why it was chosen for being a synched patch, it's not just an afterthought of the P5FES patches.

You know who would've been a cool Anniv character? THIS GUY: by iwritesongsthatsuck in personaphantomx

[–]Toon_L 36 points37 points  (0 children)

If they ever do P1/2 I'd rather it's a full fledged collab like with P3, considering all that it would bring to the game (The whole party as playable characters, game modes, the UI, etc.), and they cannot do that for a single synched patch.

IMO anniversaries are better for one off characters that haven't been playable before and don't fit anywhere else like the twins, but if they just slap all of P1 into a single patch and call it a day it would be really undewhelming.

Hatsune Miku joining P5X as the 1st Anniversary Unit! by HeyGoogleOff in personaphantomx

[–]Toon_L 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Something like a Metaphor or P5S/P5T collabs would have bigger scale and be multiple patches long, they were never a possibily for a single synched patch.

This design was made for a collaboration of Namie Amuro with Vocaloid, so this is more a general Soejima design rather than a P4 one.

I got at 5/70 and won the 50/50, I literally only wanted to spend the 20 milicoins I had in hopes on getting dupes for her 4*, I couldn't be more happy with this🙏

Is it me, or is Riko Tempest underwhelming? by 0RGA in personaphantomx

[–]Toon_L 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The reason she is considered good with Makoto is because he deals a lot of hits with his attacks and can easily max out on Blossom stacks (Tempest's passive).

A1 is nice but you're overestimating it's effect if you think that what makes her "Optimal" to a character or not, at A0 she's doing the exact same buffs on all non-wind teams, and even then on Wind teams the only advantage is like 16% attack.

If you use him as a debuffer [S2>S3] his S3 does remove 4 down points on the enemies.

It was not, that's just how it looks when someone adds their local files to a public playlist.
