Encore
Wooly-Counting Game
Situational—Encore is a Fusion Cosmos Rave on-fielder. Skill “Flaming Woolies” deals a focused attribute damage hit as the named setup tool. Best with Sanhua / Verina / Taoqi. Cosmos Rave replaces basics—needs uninterrupted field time and Basic Attack–friendly supports. Skip when premium Fusion carries already fill both ToA sides.
Encore is a 5★ Fusion Main DPS who fights with a Rectifier. Liberation “Cosmos Rave” enters Cosmos Rave and replaces basics with enhanced havoc swings. Forte “Black & White Woolies” enters Cosmos Rave and replaces basics with enhanced havoc swings.

Strengths
- Liberation “Cosmos Rave” enters Cosmos Rave and replaces basics with enhanced havoc swings — that window is where Encore’s clear speed actually shows up.
- Forte “Black & White Woolies” enters Cosmos Rave and replaces basics with enhanced havoc swings, so resource banking is mandatory, not optional filler.
- Aerial / plunge routes give flexible dodge and reposition options mid-combo.
- Dodge Counter recoveries let you rejoin the combo after a mistimed i-frame.
Weaknesses
- Field-time hungry once Liberation “Cosmos Rave” 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.

Echoes
Team Compositions
Premium Encore shell: Lupa brings Basic Attack amp; Mornye brings All-DMG amp. Rotation: open Lupa / Mornye for Concerto → Intro Encore → Liberation / Forte dump. If using Brant, put him in the second slot buffed by Lupa and have him buff Encore.
Encore is the on-fielder — bank Concerto on Lupa / Mornye, Intro in, then dump Liberation / Forte inside their amp windows.
Lupa Outros Basic Attack Amplification — hand off into Encore’s basic / Forte window immediately.
Mornye grants team-wide All-DMG Amplification — a generalist amp seat that stacks cleanly into Encore’s Liberation.
