Best Changli Build Guide 2026
Quick Navigation
1. Character Overview
Changli is a 5-Star Fusion Sword DPS/Sub-DPS and the senior counselor of Jinzhou. Her kit revolves around the Enflamement mechanic and True Sight state — she builds Enflamement stacks through attacks, then consumes them to unleash powerful Flaming Sacrifice heavy attacks. She is one of the most versatile characters in the game, capable of functioning as both a main DPS and a Fusion buffer for teammates.
Why Build Changli?
- High burst damage: Her Flaming Sacrifice deals massive Fusion DMG with proper Enflamement stacks
- Quick-swap playstyle: Excels in teams that rotate characters frequently
- Fusion buffer: Outro Skill amplifies Fusion DMG for the next character by 20%
- Flexible role: Can be built as main DPS, sub-DPS, or even support with Moonlit Clouds set
Role in Team
Primary on-field DPS or quick-swap sub-DPS. She builds Enflamement stacks, enters True Sight for enhanced attacks, then unleashes Flaming Sacrifice for burst damage. Her Outro Skill makes her an excellent partner for Fusion characters like Encore or Brant.

4. Team Compositions
Changli excels in quick-swap teams and dual DPS setups where her Outro Skill can buff Fusion teammates. She works best with characters who can maintain field presence while she builds Enflamement.
Best-in-Slot Team (Double DPS)
Brant provides Fusion sub-DPS and buffs. Changli and Brant rotate for Fusion damage bursts. Verina heals and provides universal buffs. This team maximizes Fusion resonance and quick-swap potential.
High Damage Alternative
Encore is a strong Fusion DPS who benefits from Changli's Outro buff. Shorekeeper provides healing, Crit buffs, and Rejuvenating Glow resonance. Strong damage output with excellent survivability.
F2P Friendly Team
Chixia functions as backup DPS and provides Fusion resonance. Baizhi heals and provides Crit Rate support. Budget but effective for all content without gacha investment.
Rotation Tips
- Start with Support skills (apply buffs/debuffs with Sub-DPS and Support)
- Switch to Changli using Intro Skill to enter True Sight immediately
- Perform Basic Attack combo (4 hits) to build Enflamement stacks
- Use Resonance Skill to trigger True Sight enhanced attacks
- Build to 4 Enflamement stacks (2-3 True Sight attacks)
- Cast Resonance Liberation for instant 4 stacks + 25% ATK buff
- Use Flaming Sacrifice (Heavy Attack) for massive burst damage
- With Outro Skill active, switch to next Fusion character
- Repeat when Concerto Energy is ready
5. Resonance Chain (Sequence Nodes)
Worth Pulling?
S2 is the sweet spot for most players (+25% Crit Rate is huge). S3 and S5 provide massive damage spikes. S4 makes her a team buffer. S6 is whale territory but transforms her into the highest Fusion DPS in the game.
