How Strong is Calcharo?
| Strengths | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| • Deals an insane amount of damage when played correctly. • Combo-oriented gameplay provides a lot of attack options. • Outro Skill provides off-field damage. | |||
| Weaknesses | |||
| • Quite difficult to use. • Loses a bunch of DMG if combos aren't timed properly. |
Calcharo is a great Electro DPS character that can dish out tons of damage when his combos are hit perfectly. His Outro Skill also deals a huge chunk of burst damage when he switches out, sometimes even enough to defeat a low-health enemy. Calcharo is quite difficult to use though as you have to execute his combos perfectly to maximize his damage potential. High risk, high reward.

Calcharo can also use the Lustrous Razor since it can help him increase his Resonance Liberation DMG. If you can't afford either weapon, any Broadblade that provides CRIT or ATK% will work on him.

Calcharo's Best Teams
Calcharo Premium Electro Team
| Main DPS | Sub-DPS | Support |
|---|---|---|
| Calcharo | Yinlin | Verina |
This team is the premier team when you are running Calcharo as a Main DPS.
Yinlin's Outro Skill provides Electro DMG and Liberation DMG Bonus, perfect for Calcharo to generally increase his damage while in Deathblade Gear state. What's more, Yinlin applies a Punishment Mark on enemies that when attacked will send out a coordinated attack for even more damage. Yinlin is indeed the perfect sub-DPS for Calcharo.
Verina is the top choice for a healer-support as she generally increases attacks and can deal coordinated attacks which can proc Yinlin's Punishment Marks.
General Rotation
| 1 | Verina starts the battle and charges the Concerto Energy until the other Resonator's icons glow up. When available, use her Resonance Liberation so you can apply Photosynthesis Marks on enemies. |
|---|---|
| 2 | Switch to Yinlin and charge up her Forte. Make sure to use her Resonance Skills and attacks to charge it up. Once charged, execute a heavy attack to apply a Mark. |
| 3 | Once the Mark is applied, charge up her Concerto Energy and use her Resonance Liberation. Yinlin's Resonance Liberation should hit multiple times that can call out the coordinated attacks. After the Liberation, switch out to Calcharo. |
| 4 | Once Calcharo is in the field, activate his Resonance Liberation immediately. This will maximize all the buffs from Yinline and the coordinated attack damage while the Punishment Mark is active. |
| 5 | If needed, switch back to Verina to reapply her buffs and heal characters. Repeat the steps until the enemy is defeated. |
Calcharo Basic Attack Team
| Main DPS | Sub-DPS | Support |
|---|---|---|
| Calcharo | Sanhua | Verina |
This team composition focuses on buffing Calcharo's overall damage in battle using Verina and Sanhua's buffs.
Verina will provide healing and ATK buffs to the entire party while Sanhua can increase Calcharo's Basic Attack DMG that his BA's during Resonance Liberation scale-off of.
| Character | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Mortefi | Sub-DPS ReplacementMortefi can increase Calcharo's Heavy Attack DMG and provide supplemental DMG with his own Resonance Liberation. |
| Baizhi | Support ReplacementBaizhi is a free-to-play option who can provide a ton of healing. |
General Rotation
| 1 | Verina starts the battle and charges the Concerto Energy until the other Resonator's icons glow up. |
|---|---|
| 2 | Once Sanhua is fully charged, switch to Sanhua. Verina's Outro Skill will increase Sanhua's ATK and provide the entire party with an All-Type DMG Deepen buff. |
| 3 | Activate Sanhua's Resonance Liberation and Skill to charge her Concerto Energy. Make sure to detonate the ice structures for maximum damage! |
| 4 | Switch to Calcharo after using Sanhua. Use Calcharo's Resonance Liberation to enter the Deathblade Gear state and deal a lot of DMG with his Resonance Skill and attack combos. |
| 5 | Repeat the steps until the enemy is felled. |
Calcharo's Free-to-Play Team
| Main DPS | Sub-DPS | Support |
|---|---|---|
| Calcharo | Yangyang | Baizhi |
This free-to-play team composition relies on Yangyang providing Resonance Energy for Calcharo so that he can use his Resonance Liberation sooner.
Your third slot can be Baizhi or any other healer if you have them.
General Rotation
| 1 | Yangyang starts the battle and charges the Concerto Energy until the other Resonator's icons glow up. She can use her Resonance Liberation to group up small enemies. |
|---|---|
| 2 | Once Calcharo is fully charged, you can switch to him so he can use his Intro Skill. Switching from Yangyang to Calcharo will restore the latter's Resonance Energy. |
| 3 | Use Calcharo's Resonance Liberation to enter Deathblade Gear and deal a lot of DMG with his kit. |
| 4 | Switch to Yangyang again once the Concerto Energy has fully charged up. If you need healing, switch to Baizhi and use their healing skill for a quick heal. |
| 5 | Repeat the steps until the enemy is felled. |

stacks to be able to unleash Heavy Attack: Death Messenger

Calcharo's Skill Priority
Skill Tree Priority
| Forte | Priority |
|---|---|
| Basic Attack | ★☆☆☆☆ |
| Resonance Skill | ★★★☆☆ |
| Forte Circuit | ★★★★★ |
| Resonance Liberation | ★★★★☆ |
| Intro Skill | ★☆☆☆☆ |
Forte Priority Explanations
| Forte | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Basic Attack | While his Basic Attacks are used often, you'd want to prioritize upgrading his Ult first and foremost. This is because the enhanced Basic Attacks in that mode are when his damage output is at its highest. Upgrade this after his higher priority skills are maxed out. |
| Resonance Skill | Calcharo's Resonance Skill is still an important part of his kit, but it doesn't deal as much damage when compared to his enhanced attacks during his Resonance Liberation. You'll still want to upgrade this third since you'll be weaving this in between attacks. |
| Forte Circuit | Even though Heavy Attack: Death Messenger is tied to his Resonance Liberation, it scales off Calcharo's Forte Circuit level instead of his Ult. Upgrade this alongside his Ultimate so that you can maximize his damage output. |
| Resonance Liberation | This is Calcharo's most important skill since it enhances his Basic Attacks and enables his Forte Skill to use Death Messenger instead of Mercy. Prioritize upgrading this first alongside his Forte Skill so that he can deal as much damage as possible. |
| Intro Skill | While his Intro Skill isn't bad, it's still the lowest priority upgrade since it's more important to upgrade his other skills. |

Calcharo's Resonance Chain
Recommended Sequence Nodes
| Why We Recommend It | |
|---|---|
| S1 | ★★☆☆☆ - Okay This is an okay Sequence Node to unlock since Calcharo's most important skill is his Ultimate. Even though there are other ways to get Resonance Energy, having an extra source of Resonance Energy Regen will allow Calcharo to use equipment that has more offensive stats instead of ones with Energy Regen%. |
| S2 | ★★☆☆☆ - Okay This is a pretty good upgrade to get since you'll want to weave in Resonance Skills in between attacks whenever you can. However, this loses value when he's in his Ult since you'd want to focus on spamming his Forte Circuit instead of using his Resonance Skill. |
| S3 | ★★★★☆ - Great Calcharo gets a generically great buff from this Sequence Node since he'll want to use his Resonance Liberation as much as possible anyway. If you don't plan on maxing out his Resonance Chain, aim for this at least since it's the best upgrade he'll get until S6. |
| S4 | ★☆☆☆☆ - Bad This Sequence Node is only good if you have an optimized team where you'll be able to swap back to Calcharo and get his full damage rotation off with the 30s timeframe. If you can't fit your rotation within that time, including Outro Skill buffs and all, don't bother pulling for this upgrade. |
| S5 | ★☆☆☆☆ - Bad While this is a nice buff to get, this is counterintuitive to Calcharo's playstyle since he isn't used in quick-swap teams that spam all of their skills to burst down enemies. However, it's still nice to have since it's a generic damage increase. |
| S6 | ★★★★★ - Amazing His capstone is by far the best one to unlock since it heavily increases his damage output, especially when paired with Jianxin who buffs Resonance Liberation DMG. The only downside is that you have to invest heavily into Calcharo to max out his Resonance Chain, and most other Sequence Nodes aren't worth unlocking. |
All Sequence Node Effects
| S1 | Covert NegotiationWhen the Resonance Skill Extermination Order hits a target, it additionally recovers 10 Resonance Energy, which can be triggered once every 20 seconds. |
|---|---|
| S2 | Zero-Sum GameAfter Calcharo casts Intro Skill Wanted Criminal or Intro Skill Necessary Means, his Resonance Skill DMG Bonus is increased by 30% for 15s. |
| S3 | Iron Fist DiplomacyDuring the Resonance Liberation Deathblade Gear state, Calcharo's Electro DMG Bonus is increased by 25%. |
| S4 | Dark AllianceAfter casting the Outro Skill Shadowy Raid, Electro DMG Bonus of all team members is increased by 20% for 30s. |
| S5 | Unconventional CompactIntro Skill Wanted Criminal and Intro Skill Necessary Means deal 50% more damage. |
| S6 | The UltimatumWhen casting Resonance Liberation Death Messenger, Calcharo will summon 2 Phantoms to perform coordinated attacks, each Phantom deals Electro DMG equal to 100% of Calcharo's ATK, which is considered Resonance Liberation DMG. |
