Combo Burst Explained

Combo Burst Mode Increases Character Speed and Vigor Restoration

1	Whenever your character hits an enemy or uses a skill, their Combo Burst meter gets charged up.
2	Once it's full, tap the Combo Burst button near the center of the screen. You will know that Combo Burst mode is on when the meter on the upper right-hand corner has begun winding backward.

Two Stages of Combo Burst

Combo Burst Stages

Combo Burst consists of two phases: Moment of Ascension and Moment of Opulence. These phases provide bonus movement speed, faster Vigor generation, and other benefits, with the second phase lasting longer than the first.

While there are two phases, you can choose to skip Phase 1 and keep building points to trigger Phase 2 directly. However, it's often more beneficial to activate Phase 1 first, as it helps you accumulate points for Phase 2 more quickly.

Combo Burst Phase 1: Moment of Ascension

Moment of Ascension is the first phase of the Combo Burst. In this mode, your frontline character will gain 20% movement speed and increased Vigor restoration.

1	Attack enemies to fill up the Combo meter. In Phase 1, your Combo gauge does not emit a glow.
2	Once full, the Combo meter will expand its petals and radiate a glow , indicating that it is ready to use.
3	Tap the Combo Burst button to activate its first phase, granting your entire team a 20% movement speed and rapid Vigor restoration. Be sure to land as many attacks as possible, as it will help accumulate the Combo points for Phase 2.

Combo Burst Phase 2: Moment of Opulence

Combo Burst Phase 2 is called Moment of Opulence. Aside from the usual bonus that Combo Burst provides, its second phase has longer duration.

Switching in characters for the first time during this phase allows them to automatically trigger their Combo skills. For example, Ninsar will automatically cast her second skill once you switch her in during this phase.

1	Once you activate Phase 1 or build up enough points for it, your attacks will start filling the Combo meter for Phase 2. The Combo meter now radiates a glow while accumulating points.
2	After accumulating enough Combo Points for Phase 2, the meter will glow more intensely, and the flower petals changes its appearance.
3	Tap the Combo Burst button to activate Phase 2. This time, the duration lasts longer, and switching backline characters to the frontline will automatically cast their combo skills. Keep in mind that backline characters can only do this once per activation of Phase 2.

How to Use Combo Burst

When to Use Combo Burst

When You Want to Use Skills Successively

Combo Burst Tutorial

Combo Burst mode allows for near-continuous usage of a character's skills, which is useful to maintain their skill rotation and deal damage consistently.

For example, in Combo Burst mode, Zero will be able to use her Falling Feather, Winged Radiant Blade, and Phantom Wing skills successively without having to gather Vigor to use each other skills. This allows for a nearly perfect skill rotation and maximum damage versus foes.

To Automatically Cast Combo Skills

Phase 1 allows your frontline character to automatically cast their Combo Skills. However, Phase 2 offers a stronger version that allows your backline characters to instantly cast their Combo Skills when switched to the frontlines. For example, you won't need to charge Ereshan's second skill to trigger her powerful passive ability if she's brought into battle during Phase 2.
