However some characters cannot be used in certain difficulties.

Effective | - Resonator Level - Resonance Chain of character - Weapons |
Not Effective | - Echo's Skills and Status |
Your character's abilities will have some restrictions. But the equipment, Resonance Chain and Level will not change, so as long as they are above the recommended level, it is better to use your own character instead of the trial characters. Note that if you use Jiyan as a trial character he will have no Resonance Chains unlocked.
