Chacon is a sub-DPS who uses the Aero Erosion effect. Expected to be a key part of the upcoming Cartisia. Simple mechanics make it easy for beginners to use.

Use a special Heavy Attack by gathering the bottom gauge. The gauge is charged by hitting 4 normal attacks or activating Intro Skill. The special Heavy Attack consumes all gauge to deal damage, apply 1 stack of Aero Erosion, and activate the Momori function.

Normal Attack 4th hit applies 1 stack of Aero Erosion and grants the 'Melody's Intoxication' buff (increases ally Aero DMG bonus). You can continue attacking from the interrupted hit after dodging. Resonance Skill deals damage to enemies and applies 1 stack of Aero Erosion. After using the skill, normal attacks start from the 2nd hit.

Deals instant damage to enemies and starts singing. You can select Aero Erosion or Optics with QT (default is Aero Erosion if not selected). Effect remains even when switching to another character. Provides interruption resistance, 50% damage reduction, and creates a HP-based shield. Encore Skill boosts ally character's Aero Erosion effect by 100%.

C0: Intro-Normal, E-Normal-Special Heavy, Liberation then QT, Encore Exit (total 8 seconds). C3+: Intro-Normal, E Skill twice, Ult then Exit. The key is to continuously apply Aero Erosion.

Endless Echo Set recommended. Chacon's exclusive set or 4-cost Echo may be released in the future. Build Goals: 73%+ Crit Rate, 273%+ Crit DMG, 2000+ ATK, 130 Resonance Efficiency. 4-Cost: Crit DMG, 3-Cost: 2x Aero DMG Bonus or Aero DMG Bonus + ATK, 1-Cost: ATK. C1: Recommend ATK/ATK for 3-Cost. Prioritize Crit stats like a typical sub-DPS, then focus on ATK.

Even damage distribution, not focused on specific attacks. Skill Priority: Resonance Liberation > Normal Attack > Resonance Circuit > Others.

C1: Increases own ATK after normal attack (low-mid efficiency). C2: Damage increase (consider party synergy after Cartisia release, currently 5.8% efficiency). C3: Gain 1 additional gauge after 4th attack, increases Resonance Skill usage (cycle change). C4: Defense ignore effect on Special Heavy Attack and Resonance Liberation damage (16% efficiency increase, consider party synergy). C5: Liberation damage bonus increase, reduces ally damage taken during Chacon's song. C6: Deals Aero damage to nearby enemies in 'Melody's Intoxication' buff state (number of activations unknown, analysis planned for the future).

Signature weapon 'Aria of the Forest' is the most efficient. Other options include 'Undulating Mist', 'Death and Dance', etc. Not recommended to give 'Lustrous Chorus' due to Concerto Energy, rather recommend 'Reverberating Tides' or 'Variation'.

No particularly good team comps at launch. Expect synergy after Cartisia release. Not recommended to pair with Calcharo (damage increase and damage boost are different options).

Chacon is an Aero Erosion applicator and Aero damage booster. May be difficult to use initially, but expected to increase in value after Cartisia release.
