Skill Priority

5

Forte Circuit

Rover's kit primarily revolves around their Forte Circuit, as Unbound Flow and their healing is included here. To maximize their healing and damage, prioritize this skill first.

4

Resonance Liberation

Their Resonance Liberation offers decent damage and healing that can be casted quickly and is easy to use. We suggest upgrading this after their Forte Circuit.

3

Resonance Skill

Their Resonance Skill provides a way to convert effects and apply Aero Erosion to enemies. It offers some damage but effects do not scale with skill, so upgrade after Forte Circuit and Liberation.

2

Normal Attack

Aero Rover's kit does not make much use of their basic attack combos as Cloudburst Dance scales off their Forte Circuit. Upgrade this after major skills.

1

Intro Skill

Rover's Intro Skill provides some damage and helps gain Windstrings, but other skills provide more to his potential, so prioritize this last.

Tips & Tricks

  • Maximize Windstrings to unleash powerful Resonance Skill Unbound Flow for high damage output.
  • Quick-swap technique combined with Cloudburst Dance enhances healing and allows fast rotation.
  • Bloodpact's Pledge is best-in-slot weapon due to synergy with Rover's kit and passive bonuses.
  • Consider alternative weapons like Blazing Brilliance and Emerald of Genesis for added Resonance Skill and ATK buffs.
  • Upgrade Forte Circuit first to maximize healing and damage potential, followed by Resonance Liberation for healing and damage.

Recommended Teams

Aero Erosion Team

Team Composition

Strategy

  • Start with Aero Rover and immediately use their Cloudburst, followed by two Basic Attacks in the air to generate 50 Windstrings and build up Resonance Energy.
  • Do this internal rotation twice up to 100 Windstrings, then cast Resonance Liberation afterward to fill their Forte gauge.

    Note: As Cartethyia provides Omega Storm with extra Windstring generation, this will allow Rover to successfully fill their Forte Circuit.
  • Once their Transformed Skill is available, cast Unbound Flow and immediately switch to Ciaccona to automatically trigger its Stage 2.

    Note: This will increase the max Aero Erosion stacks to 6.
  • When Ciaccona enters via her Intro Skill, she will immediately generate 1 Musical Essence and inflict 1 Erosion stack on enemies. Follow this up with 2 Basic Attacks to generate one more Musical Essence and let her do a Solo Concert.

    Solo Concert: Provides 24% Aero DMG Bonus to all team members.
  • Do Ciaccona's optimal rotations to build up her Forte and Resonance Energy. Once her Forte Circuit is full, cast a Heavy Attack to group enemies and deal damage.
  • Next, cast her Resonance Liberation and switch to Cartethyia when her Intro Skill is available. Make sure Ciaccona applies Aero Erosion in her Liberation.
  • As Cartethyia enters the field, do her optimal combos to summon and absorb all three Sword Shadows. Then, transform into Fleurdelys using her Liberation when available.
  • In the Manifest state, group and deal damage against enemies using her ideal internal rotations and build her Conviction stacks to 120.
  • Once 120 stacks are reached, you will be able to cast her second Resonance Liberation to deal massive damage against enemies.
  • Lastly, use her Outro Skill to amplify other team members' Aero DMG and switch to Rover (Aero). Repeat until all enemies are defeated.

Notes

If you need healing, you may switch to Rover and do fast healing with Cloudburst Dance.

Alternative Characters

Sanhua
Sanhua (Sub-DPS Replacement)

Sub-DPS Replacement

Moonlit Clouds
(5-pc)

* * *

Can replace Aalto in the sub-DPS role, providing Basic Attack DMG Amplification. The definitive free-to-play option since everyone gets a Sanhua for free.

Aalto
Aalto (Sub-DPS Replacement)

Sub-DPS Replacement

Moonlit Clouds
(5-pc)

* * *

Aalto provides Aero DMG amplification that benefits Cartethyia and Rover on the team. While Moonlit Clouds will not affect Cartethyia, Impermanence Heron still provides an increase to her damage dealt against enemies.

Jiyan Aero DPS Team

Team Composition

Strategy

  • Initiate with Ciaccona and generate Ensemble Sylphs while applying Erosion stacks on to enemies. When her Concerto is filled, switch to Aero Rover.
  • When Aero Rover enters via their Intro Skill, players can immediately cast Cloudburst Dance to generate 70 Windstrings.
  • Afterwards, cast Resonance Skill again and do Cloudburst Dance to generate 50 more Windstrings. Then, cast Resonance Liberation to deal damage and heal the party.
  • Upon reaching max Windstrings and full Concerto, cast Unbound Flow and immediately switch to Ciaccona to increase the Aero Erosion stack limit.
  • With Ciaccona on-field again, apply more Erosion stacks with her skills. Make sure to perform a Solo Concert while doing her combos to boost Aero DMG for the team.
  • Once her Forte bar is filled, cast a Heavy Attack to group enemies together and deal good damage. Then, cast her Resonance Liberation to deal off-field damage before switching to Jiyan.
  • Upon entering the field, have Jiyan cast Resonance Liberation. When in Qingloong Mode, maximize the Aero DMG buffs provided by both Ciaccona and Aero Rover and deal high AoE damage against enemies.
  • Repeat until all enemies are defeated.

Notes

Switch to Aero Rover when low as they can provide heals through Cloudburst Dance and Resonance Liberation.

Alternative Characters

Mortefi
Mortefi (Sub-DPS Replacement)

Sub-DPS Replacement

* * *

Still is the best Sub-DPS for Jiyan but for the sake of having Aero-Rover for the Aero Erosion build, Ciaccona will be the main sub-DPS.

Phoebe
Phoebe (Sub-DPS Replacement)

Sub-DPS Replacement

* * *

Phoebe is viable as a sub-DPS replacement for Ciaccona as she can quickly apply Spectro Frazzle stacks that can be converted to Aero Erosion by Rover.
