Shadow Harmony scales with Aftershock, 
Swing Jazz feeds Energy so she reaches the 60 energy she needs to self-cast.4: CRIT Rate / CRIT DMG · 5: Fire DMG / ATK% · 6: Energy Regen (hit the ER 1.6+ breakpoint) or ATK%

Worth pulling if you own 
Soldier 0 - Anby or any Aftershock carry, since she buffs and adds her own damage while taking almost no field time. Her weakness is that she's team-picky: away from Aftershock comps her value drops sharply—she's not an all-purpose support like Astra.
Special mechanic: the ATK buff from her Core (Taming Wind and Fire → Zeroed In) SCALES with Energy Regen. She has 1.56 base ER at Lv60 and needs up to 3.66 ER to fully maximize the Zeroed In ATK bonus (per game8 + mobalytics). Since Energy Regen can't come from disc substats, you must target ER as the Disc-6 mainstat (backed by an ER-friendly W-engine/bangboo). Her kit already grants +12.5% Crit Rate and +42.5% Aftershock DMG built-in, so once ER is met, pour into ATK% and Crit (Rate/DMG) for personal damage. Substat priority: ATK% > Crit Rate/DMG > flat ATK (Energy Regen goes on the slot-6 main, not subs). Mainstats: 4 Crit Rate/DMG · 5 Fire DMG or ATK% · 6 Energy Regen.
1) BUILD RESOURCES: use her Special Attack (Corrosive Flash) on field to bank at least 60 Bottled Heat. 2) BURST: swap Orphie & Magus in for EX Special (Heat Charge) then Ultimate (Dance With Fire) to apply Zeroed In to the team and unleash Aftershock. 3) OFF-FIELD: quick-swap to the Aftershock carry (Soldier 0 - Anby / Seed) as main damage — Orphie sits in the backline auto-firing Fire Aftershock lasers that ride her ATK buff + DEF ignore. 4) LOOP: when Ult/EX are up, cycle Orphie back in to refresh Zeroed In then swap out immediately, keeping her field time minimal so the main carry stays on screen.
The best-value cinema for F2P/low-spenders: her EX Special attacks (Corrosive Flash / Crimson Vortex / Heat Charge / Fiery Eruption) ignore 15% Fire RES, AND every ally with the Zeroed In effect deals +20% DMG. This is a genuine team buff (not just her own damage), so if you happen to pull a dupe this is the ideal first stopping point (per sportskeeda + game8).
Triggering Aftershock restores 65 Decibels, and after she uses her Ultimate her ATK increases by 20% for up to 45s. Both speeds up the team's Ult economy and self-buffs her personal damage — a worthwhile second stop for fans, but not a whale-forcing node (per game8 + gurugamer).
Adds 2 levels to Basic / Dodge / Assist / Special / Chain. A small flat bump with no gameplay change — low value, just a stepping stone to M4.
Zeroed In duration increases to 16s, and Heat Charge (EX Special) + Ultimate deal +40% DMG. A meaningful personal damage jump plus longer Zeroed In uptime (easier to keep up), but it leans toward personal damage — only grab it if you truly run her as a sub-carry.
Adds 2 skill levels again. Still just flat numbers, a bridge to M6 — low value.
When you have enough energy, press EX Special after the fireblade of High-pressure Flamethrower to instantly follow up with Crimson Vortex and recover 10 bottles of Heat. An extra Aftershock window plus self-refill that smooths the loop — strong but whale/dedicated-main only; most stop at M1-M2.
- An Attacker that plays like a Support: sits off-field auto-firing Fire Aftershock, taking almost no field time so the main carry stays on screen.
- Genuine team buffer: applies Zeroed In to the whole team (ATK) and grants Aftershock DEF ignore — a real power spike for any Aftershock carry.
- Free personal damage: many of her hits (Basic/EX/Chain/Ult) are tagged Aftershock, and the kit grants +12.5% Crit Rate and +42.5% Aftershock DMG built-in, so she buffs while adding real damage.
- Friendly Mindscape ceiling: M0 is already strong, only M1 (Fire RES ignore + team +20% DMG) and M2 matter, so you don't need to whale to use her well.
- Very team-restrictive: her value is tied to Aftershock carries (Soldier 0 - Anby / Seed); off the Aftershock archetype she drops off hard, and she is NOT a universal support like Astra.
- Energy-Regen-hungry but ER can't come from substats: you must sacrifice the slot-6 mainstat to chase ~3.66 ER, which locks the build and cuts room for ATK/Crit.
- Wants her signature Bellicose Blaze to reach full potential; off-signature engines work but leave some damage/buff on the table.
Excellent in single-target Shiyu Defense: an Aftershock burst team (Orphie + Soldier 0 - Anby + Trigger) dumps heavy damage in the stun window, with Orphie feeding Zeroed In and DEF ignore to the team. Endgame reference: ~150s per side clears indicate sufficient power (per game8).
Also strong in Deadly Assault: sustains continuous Aftershock on multiple high-HP foes, and runs well with the Orphie + Seed pairing (plus Trigger as stunner). Reference: 20,000+ scores per stage indicate sufficient power (per game8).
