Rotation Tips

  1. Start with support/healer: Cast Resonance Skill to apply buffs, build Concerto Energy.
  2. Swap to sub-DPS: Apply elemental reactions and generate Concerto.
  3. Swap to Chisa (Intro): Apply Havoc Frazzle and gain initial buffs.
  4. Build resources: Use Normal Attacks and Skills to build energy/buffs.
  5. Cast Liberation: Unleash burst damage at optimal timing.
  6. Maintain DPS: Continue attacking during buff windows.
  7. Swap out: Trigger Outro skill, switch to support to restart cycle.

Tip: Always time your Liberation with full buffs for maximum damage output. Maintain Havoc Frazzle on enemies for consistent damage.

7. Frequently Asked Questions

Is Chisa worth building without her signature weapon?
Yes. Chisa performs well with F2P alternatives. Guardian Gauntlets is the best free-to-play option. Her damage primarily comes from her kit and havoc fury mechanic, not just the weapon.
What is the minimum Resonance Chain needed?
S0 is completely viable for all content. S2 provides the best value for most players. S3 and S5 offer significant damage spikes. S6 is luxury but provides the highest DPS ceiling.
What substats should I prioritize?
Priority: CRIT Rate > CRIT DMG > ATK%. Focus on Crit Rate to reach 60-70% first, then Crit DMG, then ATK%.
What team composition is best for F2P players?
Triple Havoc damage.
Should I pull for Chisa?
If you need a strong sub-dps for your havoc team, Chisa is worth pulling. She is a solid S-tier character that performs well at S0 and scales nicely with investment.
