Chime — Stats, Skills, Best Teams

Q: Should you pull?

DEPENDS. Chime is a specialized buffer stacking 3 layers onto a single carry: +46.46% baseline ATK, +46.22% Normal Attack Multiplier on Full Burst, and +92.44% Burst damage. Her short 20s Burst cooldown keeps reapplying the buffs. Worth pulling if your roster has a clear carry you want to maximize; pick a different Supporter if you don't have a fixed main carry or need team-wide buffs instead.

Q: Skill Investment Priority

Skill investment roadmap: 1/1/4 → 4/7/7 → 7/10/10 → 10/10/10. Why: Burst For the King grants her biggest damage buff (+92.44%) to "the king," so it comes first; Skill 2's Normal Attack Multiplier buff on Full Burst comes second; Skill 1 is only a steady baseline ATK buff, so it comes last.

Review & Analysis

Chime (Squad White Knight) is a Supporter who buffs a single designated "the king" ally, with defensive stats (HP 647453 · ATK 21307 · DEF 3999) and a short 20-second Burst cooldown. Her Burst, For the King, resets the team to Burst Stage 2, grants +20% Max Ammo for the whole team, and adds +92.44% Attack Damage for "the king" for 10s. Skill 1, Chief Aide, grants "the king" +46.46% of Chime's ATK continuously from the start of battle, forming a stable buff base throughout the fight. Skill 2, The King's Secretary, on entering Full Burst adds +46.22% Normal Attack Damage Multiplier for "the king" for 10s. Functions like a dedicated single-target buffer — needs the right carry set as "the king" to be effective.
