Light Cone

Until the Flowers Bloom Again
Best choice

Until the Flowers Bloom Again provides 60% CRIT DMG, 20.8% Energy Regeneration Rate at 480 Max Energy and 15% enemy vulnerability.

When to use it : Trigger Scarlet: Elation or Execution before the Ultimate window to keep the two-turn enemy vulnerability active.

Relics

Best choice

Ever-Glorious Magical Girl grants CRIT DMG and up to 20% DEF ignore to the Elation damage that dominates Evanescia's profile.

When to use it : Keep generating Punchline through Elation teammates so the incremental Elation DEF ignore reaches ten stacks.

Planar Ornaments

Best choice

Punklorde Stage Zero gives Elation immediately and adds CRIT DMG at the 40% and 80% Elation milestones Evanescia naturally reaches.

When to use it : Reach 80% Elation through Evanescia's CRIT conversion and team buffs to activate the full 32% CRIT DMG tier.

Team lineup

Best choice

Yao Guang adds a free Aha Instant and RES PEN, the Elation Trailblazer duplicates Evanescia's Elation Skill, and Huohuo's Energy directly feeds Master Fox.

When to use it : Target Evanescia with the Trailblazer's Ultimate and avoid spending her Certified Bangers through unnecessary consecutive turns.

Accessible optionMushy Shroomy's Adventures S5 raises Evanescia's Elation and applies a stackable Elation vulnerability after Scarlet: Elation or Execution.

No additional condition documented in this guide.

It is a permanent Forgotten Hall shop cone that reaches S5 without a limited Warp or paid battle pass.

AlternativeToday's Good Luck is the strong CRIT and Elation alternative, but it requires the Battle Pass and can overcap CRIT Rate.

Trace priority

  2. Elation Skill
  3. Skill
  4. Ultimate
  5. Basic ATK

Evanescia turns every point of Energy gained into Certified Banger, converts 20% of CRIT DMG into Elation and launches Master Fox whenever the 240-Energy accumulator fills.

How to play it

  1. 1Use Skill to hit blast targets, generate ten Punchline and start feeding Energy plus Certified Banger into the 240-point Master Fox accumulator.
  2. 2Let Yao Guang and the Elation Trailblazer trigger extra Elation Skills and external Energy events; do not over-advance Evanescia until her independent Banger durations expire.
  3. 3Cast Ultimate once its 240-Energy gate is met and the team buffs are active; its Elation damage counts at least Max Energy, then Master Fox continues the AoE loop.

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

Prydwen and Icy Veins were read independently for evanescia equipment, stats, rotation and teams, then checked against released 4.4 local data. Every Energy gain adds the same Certified Banger amount and advances the separate 240-point Master Fox accumulator; the model therefore values Energy Regeneration Rate but does not double-count the reciprocal Energy/Banger wording. It caps CRIT Rate at 100% in combat after the built-in 30%, uses 220%+ CRIT DMG because 20% converts to Elation, and treats base SPD or 134 as alternatives rather than mandatory stacking. Official 4.2 notes and the immutable delta anchor the released state.

Independent E0 recommendations. Evanescia already gains 30% CRIT Rate in combat from her Trace; stop sheet investment when the effective total reaches 100%.
