🎭 phrolova: Aerial Annihilation Main DPS

phrolova is a limited 5★ Annihilation main DPS and a Resonance Skill dealer who leverages Echo Skills.
Frequent Echo triggers are crucial, and pairing with Cantarella is ideal.
If you don’t have Cantarella, use another unit that boosts Resonance Skill damage, or run phrolova as a sub-DPS.

🎶 Score Complete! The Key to Firing the Ultimate

phrolova’s kit revolves around the Ultimate.
After using the Ultimate, you fight in midair by controlling Hecate, and Hecate’s damage is extremely high.
However, you can’t cast the Ultimate immediately—you must complete the “score” above the HP bar by collecting 6 notes.

• Red notes: gained from Normal Attacks
• Blue notes: gained from Skill
• Purple notes: gained from Variation Skill and Echo Skills

The color doesn’t matter—your goal is to reach 6 notes as fast as possible.
Once you have 6 notes, press and hold Heavy Attack to confirm the score, then you can cast the Ultimate.

🔄 Ultimate Usage & Note-Consumption Strategy

While phrolova is airborne after casting the Ultimate, pressing Normal Attack commands Hecate to attack.
Every third attack becomes an empowered hit depending on the notes you’ve stored.
Notes can be spent directly, but they also auto-consume:

• Swapping to another character automatically consumes 1 note.
• Using that character’s Echo Skill also consumes 1 note.

With Cantarella: phrolova can pop Ultimate and swap out immediately—Cantarella can trigger Echo four times on her own, cleanly consuming notes.
Without Cantarella: if you swap out right away, you’ll usually only spend four notes and leave two unused.
In that case, perform two Normal Attacks as phrolova to spend 2 notes, then swap.

🛡️ Survivability & Rotation Tips

When phrolova uses an Echo Skill, she gains stagger resistance and damage taken reduction—so it’s advantageous to open the rotation with an Echo.
During Ultimate, phrolova herself looks untouchable in the air, but Hecate is not invincible.
If Hecate takes damage, phrolova’s HP drops, too.
Dodge enemy patterns to protect Hecate or swap out quickly if things get dangerous.

Baseline rotation example:
Variation Skill to enter → 2x Normal Attacks (gain 2 notes) → Echo Skill x2 (gain 2 notes) → fill the rest with Normals → hold Heavy Attack to confirm score → cast Ultimate → swap to consume notes.

Q. How do you complete the “score” for phrolova’s Ultimate, and how are notes generated?

A. The “score complete” requirement and note generation work as follows:

• Requirement: Complete the score above phrolova’s HP bar to unlock the Ultimate.
• Collect 6 notes: Any combination of colors will do—just get 6 notes.
• How to get each note color:
  • Red: via Normal Attacks
  • Blue: via Skill
  • Purple: via Variation Skill or Echo Skills
• Confirming the score (to enable Ultimate): After reaching 6 notes, press and hold Heavy Attack to lock in the score. You can then cast the Ultimate.

Q. After casting the Ultimate, what’s the most efficient way to consume stored notes, and how does Cantarella change things?

A. You can spend notes manually or automatically:

• Manual spending in-air: While airborne, use Normal Attack to command Hecate; every third hit is an empowered strike that consumes notes.
• Auto-consumption: Notes are also consumed when you swap characters and when the next character uses Echo Skills—no manual inputs from phrolova needed.

With Cantarella: Because Cantarella can trigger Echo four times by herself, it’s optimal to swap out immediately after phrolova’s Ultimate—your notes will be consumed cleanly.
Without Cantarella: If you swap right away, you’ll often leave 2 notes. Do two Normal Attacks as phrolova first, then swap to spend everything efficiently.

Conclusion: With Cantarella, swap immediately post-Ult; without her, play two notes yourself before swapping.

Q. What should I watch for when using Echo Skills and the Ultimate, especially while controlling Hecate?

A.

• Echo Skill safety: On Echo use, phrolova gains stagger resistance and damage reduction—so front-load Echo casts in your rotation.
• Ultimate control (Hecate): phrolova may appear safe in the air, but Hecate can be hit.
  If Hecate is struck, phrolova takes damage.
  Learn enemy patterns to dodge and swap out fast if you’re at risk.

Q. What’s the ideal party for phrolova as a main DPS, and what if I don’t have Cantarella?

A. The best partner is Cantarella, thanks to her Echo-triggering synergy with a Resonance Skill–centric DPS like phrolova.
If you don’t have Cantarella:

• Bring a unit that boosts Resonance Skill damage to shore up phrolova’s output, or
• Run phrolova as a sub-DPS instead.

Q. What is phrolova’s basic combat cycle, and which skills should I use at each step?

A. A clean, repeatable flow looks like this:

1. Entry & note start: Enter with Variation Skill, then 2x Normal Attacks to get 2 notes.
2. Echo utilization: Use Echo Skill(s) to add 2 more notes (purple notes from Echo).
3. Fill remaining notes: Weave Normals to reach a total of 6 notes.
4. Score & Ultimate: Hold Heavy Attack to confirm the score, cast Ultimate, then swap to let notes auto-consume via swaps/Echo on your teammate.
