Messina is an optional recruitable party member in 7th Stand User.
Plot[]
Messina only appears if the player chooses to pursue the Dark Ending, Sacrifice Ending, or the Exchange Ending. During this you will be called to a Morgue by Alicia and Berlin, who request you to form a team of Ripple Users they "resurrected" from the dead. This, of course, includes Messina. After defeating Dio, Messina departs for the afterlife once more.
Base Stats[]
In addition to these base stats, Messina's Ripple also grants him a passive +2 boost in Power, Durability, Spirit and Speed. He also possesses an innate 30% critical hit rate.
| Lv | HP | SP | Power | Durability | Spirit | Speed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 30 | 50 | 25 | 30 | 22 | 19 |
| 50 | 572 | 733 | 185 | 135 | 273 | 226 |
Messina is, frankly, underwhelming. His stats are flatly inferior to Lisa Lisa's in every way, with the exception of his higher HP. His main attracting factor is his large array of Ripple abilities, but due to him being an AI-controlled party member, you can't make full use of them.
Moveset[]
Messina's normal attack is his Ripple, which is a physical attack with the "Light" attribute that has a 25% chance of inflicting the Ripple status on enemies.
