Rotation
Rotation
- Pre-rotation (no Discord): Basic P1–P3 to build Concerto
- Main: Intro → Timed Counter ×3 → Ultimate → Basic P1–P4 → Skill → Outro
- With Discord: skip most/all pre-rotation basics
Sequence priority
Sequences
- S1: Forte shields +40% (minor) | S2: Ult CRIT Rate/DMG +20%/+20% (minor) | S3: Shield duration 30s (QoL)
- S5: Forte DMG +50% + restores 20 Resonance Energy on hit (significant)
- S6: Basic/Heavy ATK DMG +40% while shield active
- *Overall: Poor sequence value — not worth investing heavily*
Notes
Notes
- Kit is fundamentally flawed for meta use. Forte Circuit requires getting hit (unreliable). Heavy Attack wait time (3s) is slow. One of the longest support rotations.
- Single niche: 38% Skill DMG Deepen Outro for Jinhsi/Carlotta. Still viable for clearing all content in those teams.
- Compared to Lumi (same Outro but 10s duration) and Zhezhi (premium 5★ with Coord Attacks).
- Bottom-tier but not unplayable — niche pick for big nuke teams only.
