Buff Refraction + Accompaniment or
Refraction + Reverberance or

As this stage's recommended attribute is Spectro, it is best to always have the Refraction buff active and pair it with a secondary buff that fits your team composition. For this, the best option would be the Accompaniment buff that significantly enhances the ATK of your entire team through the use of Resonance Skills which becomes maximized with Jinhsi in the team.

Jinhsi will act as the Main DPS of the team, her Resonance Skill variation generating stacks with the Accompaniment buff.

Yinlin will provide support as a Sub-DPS through coordinated attacks, stacking Jinhsi's Incandescence in the process, while Verina's role is similar to Yinlin's with her coordinated attacks, though her maximum output would be delegated to healing and providing All-type DMG buff for the team.
