  • Enhanced attacks triggered by ally Echo Skill casts
  • Scales primarily with Echo Skill DMG

Best Echo Sets

Team Compositions

Best Team: Echo Skill Havoc

Character Role Echo Set
Phrolova Main DPS Dream of the Lost 3pc + Havoc Eclipse 2pc
Cantarella Sub-DPS Midnight Veil 5pc
Qiuyuan Buffer Law of Harmony 3pc + Sierra Gale 2pc

How it works:

  1. Phrolova summons Hecate via Liberation
  2. Qiuyuan provides CRIT DMG + Echo Skill DMG buffs
  3. Cantarella casts multiple Echo Skills → triggers Hecate enhanced attacks
  4. Swap rotation maintains constant off-field damage

Rotation

1. Phrolova: Basic + Skill → Generate 6 Volatile Notes
2. Phrolova: Scarlet Coda → Resolving Chord state
3. Phrolova: Liberation → Summon Hecate
4. Swap to Qiuyuan → Buff with Outro + Liberation
5. Swap to Cantarella → Multiple Echo Skills trigger Hecate
6. Repeat cycle

Alternative: Havoc Core

Character Role Notes
Phrolova Main DPS Echo Skill focus
Rover (Havoc) Sub-DPS Havoc resonance
Danjin Sub-DPS Havoc support
Verina/Shorekeeper Sustain Healing

Skill Priority

Priority Skill Reason
1 Liberation Summons Hecate
2 Resonance Skill Volatile Note generation
3 Forte Circuit Enhanced attacks
4 Basic Attack Combo filler
5 Intro Skill Lower priority

Resonance Chain Analysis

Chain Value Effect
S0 ★★★★★ Full kit functional
S1 ★★★★ Hecate attack enhancement
S2 ★★★★ Echo Skill DMG increase
S4 ★★★ Energy efficiency
S6 ★★★★★ Major damage boost

Recommendation: S0 is complete. S1 and S2 are nice upgrades for Echo Skill teams.
