Midsummer (Alana)

Midsummer (Alana) [Limited Persona]

 Super Special Rare

 Offensive Persona

Overview

Midsummer (Alana) is a Limited SSR Persona available in Limited-Time Goddess Summon during Waterside Rhapsody, which she is not available for summon after the event ends.

An offensive class Persona. The very first persona to dish additional same-skill damage if a target is killed by either Special or Ultimate Attack. Taking such benefits into consideration. She is one of the strongest 1v1 Persona to face elite enemies or bosses, given that she manages to execute a single trash mob completely.

However, RNG is in play here, thus she can hit a random target instead of the priority target. – KyrieVK

Skills

The skills below are based on the 0★ form and at Level 1:

Basic Attack

The target takes damage equal to 110 + 100% of ATK.

Special – Clamshell Combo [Cooldown 2 turns.]

The target takes damage equal to 200 + 150% of ATK, if the target is killed then repeat this Skill.

Basically, if you kill an enemy unit, this skill will be able to attack the next target immediately with the same skill once, if you kill the next enemy, it will keep on repeating until you can’t kill any enemy anymore. – iBoom

Ultimate – Fever Dream [Cooldown 4 turns.]

The target takes damage equal to 250 + 250% of ATK, if the target is killed then repeat this Skill. 100% chance of replenishing HP equal to 20% of the damage dealt during this attack.

Matchups

Midsummer(Alana) is totally worth the shot and perhaps, she is on par with Timekeeper(Inase) if ranking by top DPS.
However, if she cannot kill off a single target, this would place her bottom of Harvest Moon(Misaki). Hence, Midsummer(Alana) is more of a gambling kind and expensive to fully utilize her skill mechanisms. So, giving her 3★ form is highly recommended to boost her damage. – KyrieVK

Let’s list the negatives first,

1. There is no way to control Midsummer once she starts her rampage.

2. Missing will hurt. Think Timekeeper missing, but worse.

3. Lack of party support of any description.

4. Very susceptible to the level modifier.

5. SSR Midsummer is a single-target version of Butterfly Dream. While she is incredibly powerful and can easily solo entire stages by herself, she cannot maintain the pressure when the level mod comes into effect.

In some regards, she is worse than Butterfly Dream since her rampage will come to a stop the moment she fails to kill an enemy unit. To put things into perspective, imagine using her for All Saint’s Eve Ex stage 3 Hard/Nightmare. Her utility would be luck based since you will need her to target Envoy/Kitsune consecutively as she won’t be able to defeat either of the bosses in a single hit. This severely reduces her overall utility and effectiveness, since she doesn’t really support the party and is only there to DPS.

I would personally prefer Butterfly because her damage straight-up hits all targets, as opposed to Midsummer’s single-target DPS. Let me make it clear – she’s an amazing unit with incredible base stats, scaling, and potential, but she’s unlikely to be nearly as powerful as she is made out to be. – Contribootyer
