Best Tips & Tricks for Chixia

Chixia is a hypercarry Fusion resonator — focus on Fusion DMG and CRIT stats to maximize damage.
If Chixia's Forte Circuit is leveled high (and Resonance Skill at S1), you can invest more into Crit DMG since Resonance Skill hits will crit.
Max Forte Circuit first (primary DPS). Next priority: Resonance Liberation. Level Normal Attack and Resonance Skill after those; Intro Skill can be delayed.
Thermobaric Bullet mechanics: Chixia can hold up to 60 bullets. DAKA DAKA! consumes bullets continuously; firing Boom Boom at 30 bullets gives the big Resonance Skill hit.
Molten Rift (5-piece) is best Sonata for pure damage. If unavailable, mix Molten Rift 2pc with Moonlit Clouds or Lingering Tunes depending on whether you want more Ult uptime or ATK.
Preferred main echo is Nightmare: Inferno Rider if Rinascita isn't available — it passively boosts Fusion and Resonance Skill damage without needing Echo activations.

Best Teams for Chixia

Chixia Mono Fusion Team

Recommended Echo sets: Chixia & Any Fusion DPS — Molten Rift (5-pc); Lupa — Flaming Clawprint (5-pc). Mono Fusion works best with Lupa as premier Sub-DPS. Brant adds sustain if available.

Main DPS 2

Lupa

Sub-DPS

1. Start with Lupa and run her internal rotations until you can cast her Liberation to activate Pack Hunt and Glory's team-wide effects., 2. Cast Foebreaker, then Basic Attacks to generate Wolflame; convert them into Wolfaith and perform her enhanced Resonance Skill immediately afterwards., 3. Once her Concerto is filled, switch to the next Fusion Resonator. Switch to the Premium Fusion DPS first., 4. Have the Fusion DPS perform their optimal rotations to maximize Lupa's buffs. Build up their Concerto energy and switch to Chixia when available., 5. With Chixia on-field, execute her combos (DAKA! DAKA! and Basic Attacks). Use her Resonance Liberation when available to deal AoE damage., 6. When Chixia's Outro is available, switch back to Lupa so she performs her enhanced Intro Skill., 7. Repeat until enemies are defeated.

Chixia Premium Double DPS Team

Echo sets: Chixia & Changli — Molten Rift (5-pc); Shorekeeper — Rejuvenating Glow (5-pc). Changli synergy: charge her Forte quickly and swap in Chixia to capitalize on the buff. Multiple listed alternative supports/DPS can be used based on availability.

1. Shorekeeper opens, using rotations to summon butterflies and charge Concerto energy and her Resonance Liberation., 2. Use Shorekeeper's Resonance Liberation when available. Once Concerto is full, swap to Changli to use her Intro Skill and gain a Forte stack., 3. Execute Changli's combos to reach 4 Forte stacks and activate her enhanced Heavy Attack; use until her Resonance Liberation is ready., 4. After casting Changli's Resonance Liberation, use her enhanced Heavy Attack. When Concerto is full again, switch to Chixia to boost Fusion DMG and Resonance Liberation DMG., 5. Cycle through Chixia's rotations using Shorekeeper and Changli buffs; use Chixia's Resonance Liberation whenever available., 6. With full Concerto, switch back to Shorekeeper to detonate her Resonance Liberation field and repeat.

F2P Chixia Main DPS Team

Echo sets: Chixia — Molten Rift (5-pc); Rover — Moonlit Clouds (5-pc); Baizhi — Rejuvenating Glow (5-pc). This team leverages Rover's Time Stop Outro for safe, extended Chixia damage windows. Note: Chixia needs a Resonance Skill charge to use her Forte Circuit, so keep one charge ready when near 60 Thermobaric Bullets.

1. Rover starts and charges Concerto energy until other Resonator icons are ready., 2. When Chixia's Concerto is charged, swap to Chixia. Rover's Time Stop (Outro) should trigger, slowing enemies for ~3s., 3. Use Chixia's Resonance Skill (Hold) to deal damage within the stasis window; use Resonance Liberation and Echo skill when available to maximize damage., 4. Switch back to Rover once Concerto is full. If healing is needed, switch to your healer and use their heal., 5. Repeat until the enemy is defeated.
