Tips and Tricks
The Main-DPS should stay on the field most of the time, whilst the Sub-DPS fuels them with Buffs or have strong Intro and Outro Skills to be used on a quick rotations swap. And lastly the Support/Healer should be able to Heal or provide team wide Buffs or Shields.
*Note: All of this can also be achieved with the correct Echo Sonata Set. There are also Special Echoes who improve the DMG for the Main-DPS, and the Buffs and Heals for the Sub-DPS’s and Supports/Healers.
Click the button below for the full Echo Tier List and see which Echo and Echo Sonata sets are the best for every class:
Early Game Teams
Starting with the early game. This one is an easy one. At the beginning just use the Free Characters.
Some of the free Characters provided by the game are: Main Character—Spectre and Havoc (unlocks after completing main quest), Chixia, Yanyang and Baizhi.
The best team to use here is: Rover (Spectre/Havoc) or Chixia as the Main-DPS, Yangyang as the Sub-Dps and Baizhi as the Healer.
