Best Echo Sets for Augusta
Best overall: Crown of Valor's ATK and Crit DMG bonuses synergize with Augusta's shield uptime, while Void Thunder provides Electro DMG. Use The False Sovereign as the main Echo.
Second best: Crown of Valor remains primary for ATK and Crit DMG; Lingering Tunes is a viable supplementary ATK buff option.
Early-game option: accessible in Huanglong and gives high Electro DMG Bonus. Works reasonably well with Tempest Mephis as an early choice.
Augusta's Best Primary Echo
The False Sovereign
Best main Echo for Augusta. Provides Electro and Heavy Attack DMG Bonus passively while equipped and deals high Electro DMG when its Echo Skill is cast. Recommended main Echo for Crown of Valor compositions.
Tempest Mephis
Alternative main Echo. Grants Electro DMG and Heavy Attack DMG after its Claw attack hits, but requires time to ramp and its Echo Skill can cause small DPS loss compared to The False Sovereign.
