Linko

NatureVoice of the VoyagerETD-6 Member

Linko is an Anima Sub-DPS who deals damage through Synced Strikes while supporting from off-field. She builds and spends Modulation, chooses an ally to Sync with, and repeatedly triggers Follow-up attacks as teammates cycle skills. She provides strong off-field pressure with very little field time and adds bonuses to Hexed and Follow-up-focused teams.

Build Guide

Strengths

  • Excellent off-field Sub-DPS with Synced Strikes and Follow-up damage.
  • Needs very little field time, making her easy to slot into quickswap rotations.
  • Synergizes well with Hexed and Follow-up teams.
  • Can reduce enemy resistance to the chosen Sync partner's attribute.
  • High personal damage once CRIT stats are balanced.

Weaknesses

  • Relies on proper Modulation buildup and Sync partner selection.
  • Wants her Signature Arc for maximum Synced Strike damage.
  • Speedy Hedgehog support build sacrifices a notable amount of personal damage.
  • Needs CRIT Rate, CRIT DMG, and Anima DMG gear to reach her damage ceiling.
  • Must swap out after setup and trust the Main DPS to carry field time.

Best Teams

Linko Hexed Team

Linko slots best into Zankou's Hexed team, where she deals outstanding off-field damage without cutting into Zankou's field time. Their Anima and Incantation pairing gives easy Hexed access, and Hexed's replicated damage counts as Follow-up damage, benefiting Linko's Follow-up buffs and Synced Strikes.

Open with Sakiri's buffs and reaction setup before swapping Linko in.

Build Modulation with Linko's Basic Attacks, then use Full-Frequency Pulse and Sync with Zankou.

Use Linko's Oversync after buffs are active, chain Synced Strikes, then swap back to Zankou.

Use Iroi if you need healing; use Daffodill if you want more damage and Break.

Linko Follow-Up Team

Nanally is another excellent Main DPS to pair with Linko because much of her damage revolves around the Follow-up mechanic. This lets Nanally make direct use of Linko's buffs while Linko contributes Synced Strikes from off-field. Their shared Anima type also makes reaction setup convenient.

Keep Nanally on-field for most of the rotation while Linko contributes from off-field.

Sync Linko with Nanally so the Synced Strike reduces resistance to Nanally's damage type.

Use Zero's fast Cycle generation to trigger Blossom more often.

Swap Linko in when Full-Frequency Pulse or Oversync is ready, then return to Nanally.

Skill Priority

3

Full-Frequency Pulse (Redirect Skill)

Level last. It spends Modulation and calls in a Synced Strike, but most of its value comes from enabling Linko's other mechanics rather than its own damage multiplier.

4

Poltergeist CQC (Basic Attack)

Level next because it is her primary way to build Modulation before triggering stronger Synced Strikes. Its subskills also improve Xiaozhen's off-field attacks.

5

Spectral Cross (Support Skill)

Prioritize Linko's Support Skill first because every Synced Strike's damage multiplier scales directly with its level. It is the centerpiece of her kit and provides the biggest overall damage boost per rotation.

5

Oversync (Ultimate)

Second priority. Oversync creates Linko's main burst window with a Resonance Field, letting her chain Synced Strikes with up to three teammates before finishing with a powerful Anima burst.

How to Play

Linko is a low-field-time Sub-DPS. Build Modulation with Basic Attacks, use Full-Frequency Pulse to Sync with your Main DPS, then cast Oversync after team buffs are active to chain Synced Strikes. Swap out after her setup so the Main DPS can take the field.

Rotations

  1. 1Sakiri Skill / Ultimate → Daffodill Skill or Iroi Skill → Swap to Linko → Basic Attack until Modulation is near full → Full-Frequency Pulse → Select Zankou/Nanally for Synced Strike → Trigger Linko's Oversync → Activate Synced Strikes with available teammates → Finish Oversync Burst → Swap to Zankou/Nanally → Perform Zankou/Nanally's main damage rotation → Repeat

Tips

  • Build Modulation with Basic Attacks before casting Full-Frequency Pulse for maximum Synced Strike value.
  • Choose your Main DPS as the Sync partner so Linko reduces enemy resistance to their attribute.
  • Cast Oversync after your team's buffs are active so every Synced Strike benefits.
  • Linko does not need to stay on-field; let the Main DPS use field time after her setup.
  • Refresh teammates' supportive effects before swapping Linko back in.
