Miko's main weakness is that it is *not* a durable character. If you're ignoring Miko's damage for any reason, you're doing your group a disservice. Any time your healing isn't needed (generally because no one has taken enough damage to justify it keep in mind, some characters need to have their hp topped off to be as dangerous as possible, so you need to bear that in mind), you should be killing things. Now, just because healing is your first priority doesn't mean that you shouldn't try and do damage. It's only when you've done this that you should go out and throw kunai into the faces of your opponents. Your first priority should be keeping your team alive and healthy. If you elect to play Miko, *keep this in mind*. While it is not completely worthless as a combatant (in fact, a well played Miko can do a lot of damage), the primary value in having a Miko is that they can keep everyone near them topped off and healthy. In this guide, for simplicity's sake, I will be referring to Miko in the non-gendered singular, because avoiding confusion is more important than pedantic attention to lore based semantics. The lore isn't particularly consistent on the proper usage: sometimes Miko is referred to in the singular, Miko always refers to theirself in the plural, and oftentimes it's played for laughs that the speaker/writer isn't sure what terminology to use. However, Miko is also a single actor that doesn't separate (and doesn't have gender either, even if it has a somewhat feminine identity). Miko is a plural organism, meaning that the single entity that you see as Miko is actually comprised of numerous smaller entities, much like Legion from Mass Effect. A quick pre-text on plurality/singularity as it applies to Miko.
