Overall Concept
The concept behind this mono team is to eliminate any reactions beside Blossom. Every character triggers Blossom and nothing else, while maximizing the Blossom damage, Bud count, and number of hits. On top of making Blossom Buds keep firing during Hotori's time stop.
A huge part of the synergy comes passively, by having these characters deployed, which make the team very strong without being complex. The other part comes from a simple rotation that maximizes the Esper Meter refilling.
It's a simple team that doesn't rely on
Zero to function.
Nanally as Main DPS
In a team with three support characters who use skill and Ultimate then switch, the main DPS takes all the field time. This allow
Nanally to build her Esper meter, and be the main source of triggering Hexed every rotation.
Linko's Synced Strike
Upon using skill,
Linko should choose
Nanally to perform Synced Strike with, to yield highest DPS gain. Choosing Anima will apply Anima resistance reduction to the enemy, increasing all damage.
Other Synced Strikes come naturally when characters uses their skill. so make sure to use
Nanally skill on cooldown.
Scaling Hexed Damage
Unlike most reactions, Hexed works in a unique way. The reaction start recording Anima and Incantation damage dealt for next 12 seconds after the reaction. Then finally deal a burst damage equal to 20% of damage dealt as follow-up damage.
Hexed damage scales with the
Cycle Intensity (CI) stat of each character dealing Anima or Incantation damage during the record time. In other words, if
Nanally deal most of the damage, then her own CI matters more than anyone else. Which is a setback, as
Nanally has no room to build
Cycle Intensity and want to go for ATK, Crit, DMG (ADC) full build
However, it's only a minor setback, because
Linko buffs both Hexed and follow-up damage. and reduce enemy resistance which double dip by increasing initial damage then increasing Hexed damage.
And of course the Hexed damage is maximized by focusing all of the team's high DPS in the window after Hexed is triggered.
