How Strong is Chixia?
| Strengths |
|---|
| • Really easy and straightforward to use • Deals a good amount of Fusion DMG • Combos are not hard to understand • Ult is great against hordes of enemies • Very mobile |
| Weaknesses |
| • Cannot maximize her Resonance Liberation against bosses • Need constant repositioning and precise evasion to survive • Cannot use Forte Skill if she doesn't have Resonance Skill charges |
Chixia's a free 4-Star DPS who's good for new players since she can just sit back and shoot enemies from afar. However, she needs precise movement and resource management to maximize her DPS potential.
Also, she's best suited for single-target damage since she only has her Resonance Liberation for AoE damage.

Chixia is a hypercarry Fusion Resonator that aims to deal as much damage as possible. Focus on increasing her Fusion DMG and CRIT stats so she can deal as much damage as possible. If you have her on S1, you can invest more on her Crit DMG as her Resonance Skill will surely deal critical hits at S1.
Chixia's Best Echo Sets
Best Main Echo
| Main Echo | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Inferno Rider
| ・A Fusion echo that not only deals huge damage, but also increases the Fusion DMG of the holder after the attack chain. ・Make sure to finish the full attack animation to get the buff. |
Echo Tier List
Chixia Best Sonata Effects
| Echo Set | Rating |
|---|---|
| Molten Rift (5-pc) | ★★★ - BestStraight up increases Chixia's Basic Attack and Fusion DMG, Molten Rift is by far the best set for Chixia. Recommended Main Echo: Inferno Rider |
| Molten Rift (2-pc) Moonlit Clouds (2-pc) | ★★☆ - 2nd BestThis set increases the frequency of using Chixia's Resonance Liberation. Though not central to Chixia's playstyle, this is extremely useful when dealing with hoards of enemies or taking down bosses. Recommended Main Echo: Inferno Rider |
| Molten Rift (2-pc) Lingering Tunes (2-pc) | ★☆☆ - 3rd BestThird best option for Chixia as it increases both Fusion DMG and ATK. Only use this if you don't have enough Echoes to fill in the better Sonata sets. Recommended Main Echo: Inferno Rider |

List of All Weapons
Chixia's Best Weapon Explained
Static Mist is the only 5-star Pistol weapon available in the game. Though Chixia cannot utilize its Weapon Skill fully, the increase in Energy Regen and Crit Rate will make sure that all her attacks can crit. In any case, Thunderbolt is still a good alternative and Static Mist is not a must have.
Chixia's Best Teams
F2P Chixia Main DPS Team
| Main DPS | Sub-DPS | Support |
|---|---|---|
| Chixia | Rover (Spectro) | Baizhi |
This team composition revolves around Chixia dealing as much damage as possible while the enemy is under the Rover's Time Stop outro skill. This maximizes Chixia's free hit chance, especially with her Resonance Skill (Hold).
The healer slot is filled by Baizhi, but you can use a premium support like Verina if you have her.
Just remember that Chixia cannot use her Forte Circuit if she doesn't have a Resonance Skill charge, so make sure that you always have one charge ready when you're close to 60 Thermobaric Bullets.
General Rotation
| 1 | Rover starts the battle and charges the Concerto Energy until the other character's Resonator icons glow up. |
|---|---|
| 2 | When Chixia's is fully charged, switch with Chixia. The Time Stop outro skill of the Rover should trigger, slowing down time for 3s. |
| 3 | Use Chixia's Resonance Skill (Hold) to deal damage. It will be really easy to hit the targets considering they are in stasis. If available, use her Ultimate to finish off enemies not felled by the Resonance Skill. Also, use the equipped echo when it is off cooldown. |
| 4 | Switch with Rover again once the Concerto Energy has fully charged. If you need healing, switch with your healer and use their healing skill for a quick heal. |
| 5 | Repeat the steps until the enemy is felled. |
How to Play Chixia
| Chixia Gameplay Guide |
|---|
|
|
Attack Enemies at Range
Chixia is a Pistol user who excels at attacking at range. This is great for new players who don't play action games since she can attack safely at range, making it easier to dodge attacks.
Attacks Have a Maximum Range
It should be noted that you shouldn't be attacking from too far away since attacks have a maximum range. If you try to attack from too far, your shots will miss.
Fill Up the Forte Circuit Meter
| Combo |
|---|
| Basic Attack 4 → (Tap) Res. Skill |
The bulk of Chixia's damage comes from her Forte Circuit, so you'll want to fill up its meter as often as possible. To do this, use a combination of her Basic Attacks and Resonance Skill to quickly max it out.
Unleash DAKA DAKA! When Bar's Full
Once the bar above her HP is full, hold down Resonance Skill to unleash 'DAKA DAKA!'. This will unleash a barrage of bullets that deal a steady amount of damage against the enemy.
Tap Basic Attack After Using 30 Bullets
After using up 30 bullets, denoted by the line on the bar, click Basic Attack to unleash a powerful shot called 'Boom Boom' and deal massive damage to the target.
Use Ultimate When Surrounded
Chixia's Resonance Liberation is her only reliable source of AoE damage, so you'll want to save it for when she's surrounded by multiple enemies to quickly take them out.
Chixia's Recommended Combos
Switch-In Intro Skill Combo
| Combo |
|---|
| Intro Skill → BA 1 → BA 2 → BA 3 → BA 4 → Res. Skill → BA (Until Forte Circuit's Full) |
When you switch to Chixia, your goal is to max out her Forte Circuit as soon as possible. Her Intro Skill also gives Thermobaric Bullets, so you'll only realistically need 1 Resonance Skill and 2 Basic Attack Combos to fill up her Circuit.
Forte Circuit Build Up
| Combo |
|---|
| Basic Attack 4 → (Tap) Res. Skill → Repeat if Needed |
As mentioned earlier, this will be your basic combo to generate Thermobaric Bullets and build up Chixia's Forte Circuit. Just remember that you need a Resonance Skill charge to activate DAKA DAKA!, so don't always spam it.
Standard Damage Combo
| Combo |
|---|
| Inferno Rider → DAKA DAKA! (Until 30 Bullets) → Boom Boom → BA1-4 → DAKA DAKA! (Until 30 Bullets) → Boom Boom → BA1-4 |
This combo will be Chixia's standard damage rotation. Start by using the Inferno Rider Echo to get the Fusion DMG Boost and use DAKA DAKA! until you can unleash Boom Boom. Follow it up with Basic Attacks to build up her Forte Circuit, and repeat [DAKA DAKA → Boom Boom → Basic Attacks] to end the combo.
Remember to execute this combo quickly since Inferno Rider's 15s Fusion DMG Boost might run out and the last part of the combo might not get the damage buff. Also, you'll need Inferno Rider's final attack to go off for the Fusion Buff to apply.

Chixia'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 | Chixia's Basic Attacks are mainly used to generate Thermobaric Bullets for her Forte Circuit. Even though it looks like she's auto-attacking a lot, the damage from her abilities doesn't scale off of her Basic Attack level. Upgrade this skill alongside her Resonance Skill since they're both lower prio compared to her Forte Circuit and Ultimate. |
| Resonance Skill | Similar to her Basic Attacks, Chixia's Resonance Skill is mainly used to generate Thermobaric Bullets for her Forte Circuit. Again, upgrade this alongside her Basic Attacks since they're both lower prio compared to her Forte Circuit and Ultimate. |
| Forte Circuit | This is Chixia's most important skill since this is where the bulk of her damage comes from. Even though the ability is activated with her Resonance Skill, the damage scales with her Forte Circuit levels. Just remember that this will only out-damage her Ult as long as you activate Boom Boom every 30 Thermobaric Bullets. |
| Resonance Liberation | Chixia's Ultimate will be your second upgrade priority since it's her only source of Burst and AoE outside of her Outro Skill. It's also her second-highest damage skill after her Forte Circuit. |
| Intro Skill | While the increased damage is nice, you won't be using Chixia's Intro Skill often since she'll be your active character more often than not. |

Chixia's Resonance Chain
Recommended Sequence Nodes
| Why We Recommend It | |
|---|---|
| S1 | ★★★★★ - Amazing Boom Boom is Chixia's main source of damage, so having it Auto-CRIT is incredible. This will let you focus on CRIT DMG%, Fusion DMG%, and ATK% on her equipment instead of CRIT Rate%. Do note that you may still want CRIT Rate% for her other skills, like her Ult. |
| S2 | ☆☆☆☆☆ - Unimportant vs Bosses ★★★☆☆ - Good vs Multiple Enemies This upgrade may look good on paper since it will make Chixia better at mobbing, but the reality is that she's best used a Single-Target DPS. If you don't kill off a single enemy with her Ult, then this Sequence Node does nothing. However, if you're using Chixia as a more general DPS instead of a Boss killer, this Sequence Node gets bumped up to good since you can use her Ult more often. |
| S3 | ★★★★☆ - Great Unlike Chixia's S2 upgrade, this Sequence Node actually benefits her Single-Target playstyle, especially against Bosses with large health bars. It's also great at killing off low HP enemies if you need it. |
| S4 | ★★★★★ - Amazing This upgrade is absolutely amazing since Chixia will max out her Thermobaric Bullets every time she Ults! This will significantly increase her damage output and help her shred through enemy HP bars. |
| S5 | ★★★☆☆ - Good Since this Sequence Node relies on you having her Inherent Skill II unlocked, this will do absolutely nothing if your Chixia is below Rank 4 and you can't unlock it. If you do have it unlocked, it's a decent upgrade to get since you'll get an extra 30% ATK Boost if you reach the max DAKA DAKA stacks. The main issue though is that you don't want to spam her Resonance Skill since you'll also need it to activate her Forte Circuit. |
| S6 | ★☆☆☆☆ - Bad Chixia's capstone Sequence Node is pretty bad since her main sources of damage don't count as Basic Attack DMG. While this is useful if she needs to build up Thermobaric Bullets, it really only benefits the rest of her team and not herself. |
All Sequence Node Effects
| S1 | No. 1 Hero Play FanResonance Skill Boom Boom hits will always be Critical Hits. |
|---|---|
| S2 | Leaping SparklesDuring Resonance Liberation Blazing Flames, for every 1 target defeated, Chixia recovers 5 Resonance Energy, up to 20 each time. |
| S3 | Eternal FlamesResonance Liberation Blazing Flames deals 40% more damage to targets whose HP is below 50%. |
| S4 | Hero's Ultimate MoveResonance Liberation Blazing Flames grants 60 Thermobaric Bullets and immediately resets the cooldown of Resonance Skill Whizzing Fight Spirit. |
| S5 | Triumphant ExplosionsWhen the Inherent Skill Numbingly Spicy! reaches max stacks, ATK is additionally increased by 30%. |
