How to play Cantarella
A Havoc sub-DPS, healer and Support on Basic Attack DMG, with an unusually wide off-field Coordinated Attack. Flickering Reverie applies Hazy Dream, an AoE slow lasting up to 6.5s.
Her enhanced Resonance Skill, ultimate Resonance Skill and Resonance Liberation all count as Echo Skills, which changes which buffs work on her. The loop builds passive in the normal state, then holds Basic Attack in the enhanced state for Perception Drain. Her Outro Skill adds Havoc DMG and Resonance Skill DMG.
