Encore Resonance Chain

Suggested Resonance Chain

Sequence 4

As a permanent 5-star character, Encore’s Resonance Chain improvements are modest. The highest increases are in Sequence 6 and Sequence 4, which only provide a 7% and 8% damage boost, respectively.

*The % increase is relative to the previous Resonance Chain. Sequence 2 is related to energy restoration and is excluded from the damage increase calculation.

Encore Echo Skill Priority

Inferno Rider can increase Encore’s Fusion Damage and Basic Attack Damage, which is like designed for Encore.

Havoc Dreadmane’s skill form and damage are superior to Violet-Feathered Heron.

Although Violet-Feathered Heron’s Counterattack multiplier is decent and it can restore 5 Concerto points, it seems appealing at first glance. However, its practical use is limited as it often leads to standing idle. Compared to Extreme Evasion, which restores 10 Concerto points, it falls short by half. For beginners, it is more recommended to use Dark Mane Wolf to quickly defeat enemies or find openings to deal damage, rather than attempting to use Violet-Feathered Heron’s Counterattack.
