Ciaccona
Yes for Aero Erosion support—Ciaccona amplifies Erosion teams. Liberation “Singer's Triple Cadenza” dumps a large Liberation multiplier into the current wave. Best with Cartethyia / Jiyan / Shorekeeper. Aero Erosion amp is wasted if the team never applies or detonates Erosion. Skip when you are not building Aero Erosion cores.

Strengths
- Liberation “Singer's Triple Cadenza” dumps a large Liberation multiplier into the current wave — team value spikes when this window is online every rotation.
- Forte “Symphony of Wind and Verse” routes damage through mid-air / plunging attack chains, so resource banking is mandatory, not optional filler.
- Outro “Windcalling Tune” amplifies the incoming Resonator’s damage on Outro handoff — swap timing is part of the damage plan, not just Concerto filling.
- Aerial / plunge routes give flexible dodge and reposition options mid-combo.
Weaknesses
- Value collapses if you cannot use the Amplification niche on Outro “Windcalling Tune”.
- ER / Concerto investment competes with DPS Echo farming until Liberation is reliable.

Team Compositions
Sigrika core with Ciaccona: Qiuyuan is the Dual-DPS / quickswap partner. Ciaccona opens Stellarealm / heals, then Sigrika takes the buffed damage window.
Sigrika is the on-fielder this shell is built around — Ciaccona keeps them alive and buffed through Liberation.
Qiuyuan shares field time with Sigrika — trade Intro / Outro so both Liberation windows get amp coverage.
Ciaccona enables this shell — keep Outro / setup online every rotation for Sigrika + Qiuyuan.

If Ciaccona's Basic Attack Stage 4 or Solo Concert ends early (proactively or being interrupted), an Ensemble Sylph is generated. Solo Concert When Ciaccona or Ensemble Sylph performs Solo Concert, they give 24% Aero DMG Bonus to all nearby Resonators in the team. This effect is not stackable. Ensemble Sylph Up to 2 Ensemble Sylphs may exist simultaneously. If Ciaccona's Basic Attack Stage 4 is interrupted, the Ensemble Sylphs generated will finish the attack for Ciaccona and enter Solo Concert. If Ciaccona's Solo Concert is interrupted, the Ensemble Sylphs generated will continue the Solo Concert for Ciaccona. Aside from the two situations mentioned above, Ensemble Sylphs generated by Resonance Skill will finish Ciaccona's current attack without entering Solo Concert.

During Recital: - Switching to another Resonator doesn't end Recital, but automatically generates a Symphonic Poem: Tonic matching the color of the last generated Tonic before switching.
