Overview
Esther really benefits from having
Jiwon in the team. Infinite dashes significantly speed up her rotation and add a meaningful damage boost.
Enhanced Basic Attack (EBA) Timing
When performing Enhanced Basic Attacks, after executing EBA3, wait for the final slash before dashing to skip the recovery animation. The last slash deals the most damage — dashing too early will cause you to miss it.
Watch the video guide at the bottom to see this timing in practice.
A0 Rotation
Starting sequence (Sub-DPS → Jiwon):
- Sub-DPS start → switch to
Jiwon -
Jiwon : BA1 → Skill → dash cancel → BA → swap to
Esther
- (If Jiwon is A1+, skip the BAs and dash — just use Skill)
-
Esther : Skill → dash cancel → (EBA ×3 → dash cancel) ×4 → swap to Sub-DPS
Sub-DPS has approximately 5–6 seconds to act before the rotation is ready to repeat. With some CDR investment and a yellow counter proc, you can cycle back even earlier.
A1+ Rotation
At A1,
Esther gains the option to perform 2 sets of EBA ×3 before using Skill, adding extra damage before the main combo window.
Starting sequence (Sub-DPS → Jiwon):
- Sub-DPS start → switch to
Jiwon -
Jiwon : BA1 → Skill → dash cancel → BA → swap to
Esther
- (If Jiwon is A1+, skip the BAs and dash — just use Skill)
-
Esther : (EBA ×3 → dash cancel) ×2 → Skill → dash cancel → (EBA ×3 → dash cancel) ×4 → swap to Sub-DPS
Sub-DPS has approximately 3 seconds to act before the rotation repeats.
Note: The 2 extra EBA sets at the start do not benefit from Esther's signature weapon, so they deal less damage. These can be skipped if you prefer a faster burst window.
Ultimate Timing
When
Esther has her Ultimate ready, activate it after the smoke expires.
