How to Play Astra Yao

1. Enter the Idyllic Cadenza State
2. Ultimate Restores Team's HP
3. Additional Ability Extends Her Buffs

Enter the Idyllic Cadenza State

Astra Yao's bread and butter while on-field is her Idyllic Cadenza State which can be triggered by either pressing or holding the Special Attack button. While in this state, Astra Yao can increase the entire teams ATK!

If a team switches on-field while Astra Yao is in this state via a Quick Assist or Chain Attack , she will continue to be on the field and becomes invulnerable.

Ultimate Restores Team's HP

Using Astra Yao's Ultimate can heal the entire team and she will enter the Idyllic Cadenza State at the same time. The next two Quick Assists can also become Chain Attacks.

Additional Ability Extends Her Buffs

Astra Yao's additional ability enables her to generate Energy, Tremolo, and Tone Clusters when you trigger a Precise Assist. Tremolo and Tone Clusters are the ones used by Astra to enter the Idyllic Cadenza State and provide ATK buffs.
