Use frequent allied attacks to prepare his enhanced Elation Skill. His follow-up conversion requires him to be the team's only Elation character.
How to play it
- 1Enter combat with Technique to start with Fervor and Certified Banger.
- 2Use Skill each turn when possible to generate resources and reset the additional Fervor trigger allowance.
- 3Let allied attacks trigger the normal Elation Skill and prepare its enhanced form for Aha Instant.
- 4Use Ultimate to maintain his SPD bonus and build Fervor before the enhanced Elation Skill consumes it.
Sources and methodology
Editorial recommendations are written from released game data, then cross-checked against specialist calculations. They are not copied from a single tier list.
Review method
Cross-checked Prydwen, Icy Veins and StarGuide recommendations against released game data. Separate E0 from Eidolon triggers and distinguish the single-Elation follow-up conversion from mixed-Elation teams. No new relic set is required.

Independent E0 recommendations. ATK and Quantum DMG do not scale his Elation damage; prefer useful sphere substats. Do not import E1's extra triggers into the E0 rotation.
