Ciaccona is a 5★ Aero Support who wields pistols to apply Aero Erosion while boosting team damage. Her crowd control and off-field presence make her perfect for quickswap teams.
Core Mechanics:
- Applying Aero Erosion: Ciaccona's fourth Basic Attack, Resonance Skill, and Resonance Liberation can each apply stacks of Aero Erosion to enemies.
- Amplifying Aero Erosion Damage: Ciaccona's Outro Skill increases the Aero Erosion damage enemies take by 100%.
- Gathering Enemies: Ciaccona's Forte Circuit can pull enemies together, making it easier for allies to hit multiple targets.

3. Resonance Liberation: Trio of a Songstress' Cadenza
- Ciaccona's core skill deals AoE Aero DMG while applying both Aero Erosion and Spectro Frazzle on hit. Tapping the skill generates a Symphonic Poem: Tonic to restore energy.

Ciaccona Top Team Comps
1. Aero Burst (AoE Focus)
- Ciaccona + Jiyan + Jianxin
- Jiyan (Main DPS) leverages Aero Erosion for explosive AOE.

2. Wind/Electro Quickswap
- Ciaccona + Calcharo + Taoqi
- Calcharo delivers Electro DMG bursts, while Ciaccona supplements with Aero debuffs. Taoqi provides dodge counters and survival support.

3. Spectro Frazzle Single-Target
- Zani acts as Main DPS, synergizing with Ciaccona's Glimmer effects, while Verina provides sustained healing - perfect for single-target Boss battles.

Should You Pull?
Ciaccona stands as the premier Aero support in the wuwa 2.3 version, particularly excelling in teams requiring crowd control, damage amplification, or quick-swap mechanics. Players who already possess Aero or Electro main DPS characters like Jiyan or Calcharo should strongly consider pulling for her. For optimal performance, prioritize leveling her Resonance Liberation and Resonance Skills while equipping the 5-piece Sierra Gale artifact set to maximize her combat effectiveness.
