Augusta
Augusta
Yes for Electro attribute-amp carry—Augusta’s Liberation still pressures endgame. Liberation “Sunward Conquest” applies shield or damage reduction for the active Resonator. Best with Yinlin / Shorekeeper / Verina. All-Attribute Outro amp wants a real damage dealer after her—don’t outro into another pure buffer. Skip when Electro coverage is already solved on both sides.
Augusta is a 5★ Electro Main DPS who fights with a Broadblade. Liberation “Sunward Conquest” applies shield or damage reduction for the active Resonator. Forte “Call Me By the Sun” routes damage through mid-air / plunging attack chains.

Strengths
- Liberation “Sunward Conquest” applies shield or damage reduction for the active Resonator — that window is where Augusta’s clear speed actually shows up.
- Forte “Call Me By the Sun” routes damage through mid-air / plunging attack chains, so resource banking is mandatory, not optional filler.
- Outro “Battlesong of the Unyielding” dumps a large Liberation multiplier into the current wave — swap timing is part of the damage plan, not just Concerto filling.
- Aerial / plunge routes give flexible dodge and reposition options mid-combo.
Weaknesses
- Field-time hungry once Liberation “Sunward Conquest” is up — double-DPS swaps dilute the dump window.
- Wants dedicated supports and ER planning; dropped into a random squad, Liberation uptime falls off a cliff.
Forte Priority
“Sunward Conquest” — applies shield or damage reduction for the active Resonator. Level first.
“Call Me By the Sun” — routes damage through mid-air / plunging attack chains.
Primary generator / setup tool for Liberation and Forte.
Opens rotations and often refunds Concerto or setup buffs.
Team amp or handoff — important for supports, lower for selfish DPS.
Stat Priority
Build Concerto on supports → Intro Augusta → “Warrior's Blade” / “Call Me By the Sun” resource loop → “Sunward Conquest” dump → “Battlesong of the Unyielding” or swap as needed.
Refine timings once you learn Concerto breakpoints for your specific team.

Team Compositions
Premium Augusta shell: Iuno brings Heavy Attack amp; Shorekeeper locks Stellarealm CRIT Rate/DMG plus heal so Augusta can greed the full Liberation window. Rotation: open Iuno / Shorekeeper for Concerto → Intro Augusta → Liberation / Forte dump. Mornye is more niche in use, only consider her with Rebecca or Lynae on the team (for Hack and Tune Rupture synergies respectively).
Augusta is the on-fielder — bank Concerto on Iuno / Shorekeeper, Intro in, then dump Liberation / Forte inside their amp windows.
Iuno Outros Heavy Attack Amplification — swap into Augusta so Heavy / Liberation dumps ride the full amp.
Shorekeeper’s Stellarealm is the premium generalist seat — party CRIT Rate/DMG, heal, and DMG amp so Augusta can greed the full Liberation window.
