Chaos - How To Play & Rotations
Basic Combat Strategy
- Attack enemies to build up Crime
- Apply Warrant to enemies with your skill
- Hold the Basic Attack once Crime is built up
Attack Enemies to Build Up Crime
Gain "Crime" through Chaos's Basic Attacks and Redirect Skill to fill the scythe gauge above her HP. Using her Ultimate makes Crime build up over time, letting you fill the gauge faster.
Apply Warrant to Enemies with Your Skill
Using Chaos's Redirect Skill or Ultimate applies "Warrant" to enemies. Enemies marked with Warrant take increased damage from Chaos, so play in a way that keeps it from expiring.
Hold the Basic Attack Once Crime Is Built Up
Once Crime is built up and the scythe gauge is MAX, hold the Basic Attack to unleash a powerful Enhanced Basic Attack. Using it while Warrant is active lets you deal even higher damage.
Chaos Best Team Composition
Remora & Stain Team
| Attacker | Esper Cycle | Buff/Stain | Remora Boost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chaos | Esper Zero | Haniel | Hathor |
Chaos's recommended team leverages Remora and Stain. To make the most of the Remora boost from Chaos and Hathor, trigger Remora with the Main Character while raising Chaos's damage with Haniel's buffs and Stain.
Basic Playstyle
| No. | Playstyle |
|---|---|
| Generally attack with Chaos, then switch to Haniel once Cycle Intensity is built up | |

Charge Team
| Attacker | Esper Cycle | Support | Blossom Boost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chaos | Esper Zero | Xun | Jiuyuan |
A team that uses the Charge effect to charge Ultimate Energy and cycle Chaos's Ultimate. For the Anima slot, adopting Jiuyuan to increase the number of Blossom shares boosts energy-charging efficiency.
Basic Playstyle
| No. | Playstyle |
|---|---|
| After using Xun's skill, record in the order of Main Character's skill → switch to Jiuyuan → Chaos's skill | |
| Keep attacking with Chaos, and use Xun's Ultimate once Xun's Ultimate Energy is built up | |
| Blossom triggers from Xun's record skill | |
