Is Mio just bad?

[PowerElite]

Her damage and defense is trash-tier. Sure, she has that neat insta-kill ability but it's only sometimes, the damage is good but costs 3 SP, and most things I'm fighting die in 1-2 hits anyway. I just don't see a reason to have her instead of say, Iugo, who while has similar low defense can hit like a truck with his ability without using SP or MP.

No, we been testing her, Speed, Dex, and Luck is her stats to get up, the will evade like crazy and if her rune strike gets luck she will one shot (this includes bosses)

[Mio, Samurai-like] She is around or slightly above average, since there are many characters positioned below than that.

She is just not an "Over-Powered Character" that player usually expect, for beginning members in a RPG game.

basically [Mio, Samurai-like] is a 2nd tier choice, but
1) There are a lot of 3rd tier characters, so 2nd tier is not bad.
2) It may be slightly intentional in this game, to have LESS strong (HP + STR + DEF) female forward attackers / tanks in this game, for some realism. Not expected to take much damage (For a Samurai in daily cloth, without armor. The combo attack in this game also put she a bit to the Ninja side).

wait until you see francesca hp and def if you think mio is bad

im at lv 20 mark in the game and mio is so far the worst i have seen, while francesca is most likely my most op unit, best defence is a good offence

Yeah that's a character who shines really early, but her low HP and speed growth is pathetic. Yet I'm still using her into level 40 and I really shouldn't be. Her Hero Combo is great but I think it's time to ditch her. She's really dropping the ball in Hard boss fights now.

Well there's 120 characters. Not all of them can be world beaters.

Early on she does at least. Her damage, health, and defense suck, and she can't dodge to save her life so being in the front row because she has short range gets her killed a lot.

Hopefully later on when you have more control over that with runes she's better though.
