Best Tips & Tricks for Lucilla

Lucilla's Resonance Liberation has no Energy cost; it unlocks when she holds all 3 Photos. Focus on generating Photos via Trace instead of Energy Regen.

In Glacio Chafe mode, her Liberation and Oblivion count as Basic Attack DMG; stack Basic Attack DMG Bonus and use Glommoth to amplify the next character.

In Echo mode, her damage counts as Echo Skill DMG and her kit grants Echo Skill DMG buffs; use Impermanence Heron to amplify the incoming Resonator after Outro.

Use Perfect Focus (Spotlight/Commendable) to restore more Trace and Concerto Energy; this speeds up Photo generation and rotation.

Her Outro Skill changes by Resonance Mode: Glacio Chafe amplifies Glacio Chafe DMG by 60%; Echo grants 50% Echo Skill DMG Amplification to the incoming Resonator.

Best Teams for Lucilla

Lucilla Premier Glacio Chafe Team

Lucilla's best team is the Glacio Chafe composition alongside Hiyuki. While Hiyuki can apply Glacio Chafe on her own, Lucilla exemplifies the Negative Status with her amazing stack application and Glacio-related buffs that significantly boost the damage type. Additionally, Suisui is able to boost the effects of Glacio Chafe by increasing the max stack limit of Negative Statuses, while also providing a lot of general DMG buffs. Furthermore, Hiyuki has a unique consumption mechanic of the Glacio Chafe debuff, converting it into Glacio Bite to deal more damage against enemies.

Next, do a mid-air attack and plunge on the ground, followed by four basic attacks. Afterwards, cast Resonance Liberation and Echo Skill before switching out to Lucilla via Outro., 3.

Lastly, perform a Heavy Attack and follow it up with Hiyuki's Resonance Liberation. Then, switch back to Suisui via Outro., 10. Repeat until no enemies are left on the field.

Lucilla Echo Skill DMG Team

Team Resonance Mode: Echo. Lucilla is able to work in Echo Skill teams with her second Resonance Mode, and pairs well with Sigrika, one of the strongest Echo Skill DPS units in the game.

Aside from Sigrika, Lucilla also scales off Echo Skill DMG in this mode, providing team-wide buffs for the DMG type that she also benefits from. As for the third slot, Shorekeeper is the best support to have with her strong Crit. and All-DMG buffs, while also providing excellent sustain with Stellarealm.
