Amber Skill Guide & How To Use Amber

Recommended Rotation For Amber

	Recommended Rotation
1	Use Elemental Skill as an opener, as well as to get charge for ult
2	While enemies are distracted, either spam Normal Attacks or Charged Attacks
3	Bring out Baron Bunny again, and unleash Elemental Burst on enemies around it to guarantee hits
4	Repeat from step 1

Uses Of Amber's Elemental Skill

Distract & Taunt The Enemies

Baron Bunny will take the aggro of enemies and distract them from attacking. You can either use it defensively to move away from enemies or offensively by gathering them in a single place to attack them.

Use To Gather Energy For Burst

It is important to use Baron Bunny as an opener since it can only produce energy once it explodes. Placing it early in battle makes energy gain faster.

Uses Of Amber's Elemental Burst

Set Off High Damage Pyro Reactions

Amber's Burst has the highest damage amplifier for a skill in the game. It is a great finisher to either multiple or solo enemies since it can activate reactions for high damage.

Amber Wish & Constellation Guide

Should You Get Or Wish For Amber?

Amber Is A Free Character

Amber can be obtained while finishing the tutorial of the game. Her constellations, however, can be obtained via Normal Banner. It is not recommended to pull for constellations using Primogems but instead use the Free Blue Fates that can be obtained through Battle Pass and Adventure Rank.

Best Constellation For Amber

Rating	Constellation Effect
★★・・・	C1: One Arrow To Rule Them All Fires 2 arrows per Aimed Shot. The second arrow deals 20% of the first arrow's DMG.
★★★・・	C2: Bunny Triggered Baron Bunny, new and improved! Hitting Baron Bunny's foot with a fully charged Aimed Shot manually detonates it. Explosion via manual detonation deals 200% additional DMG.
★★★・・	C3: It Burns Increases the Level of Fiery Rain by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.
★★★★・	C4: It's Not Just Any Doll... Decreases Explosive Puppet's CD by 20%. Adds 1 additional charge.
★★・・・	C5: It's Baron Bunny! Increases the Level of Explosive Puppet by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.
★★★★★	C6: Wildfire Fiery Rain increases all party members' Movement SPD by 15% and ATK by 15% for 10s.

Aim For C6 If Possible

Amber is unfortunately held back with how hard it is to get her Constellations. However, if you want to really make use of Amber, you should aim to get her to C6. She will be able to support her party, and together with the C2 and C5 that boosts her skill, she will finally be able to have a solid role.
