How to play Zhezhi
A Glacio sub-DPS and Support whose damage arrives while someone else is on the field. Basic Attacks and Intro Skill build Afflatus to 90, and every 30 points summons a Phantasmic Imprint, up to 3.
Spending those through her enhanced Resonance Skill sends out Ivory Heralds that keep hitting off-field as Coordinated Attacks. Her Outro Skill hands the next character Glacio DMG and Resonance Skill DMG, which is what makes her the standard second slot behind a Glacio carry rather than a damage seat of her own.
