The Shinku rotation starts by building Defiant Spirit, preparing reaction support, returning to Shinku, casting Ultimate, staying on field during the transformed state, spending enhanced skill resources, and finishing the burst window cleanly.
Shinku rotation basics
| Step | Action | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Build Defiant Spirit | Prepares Shinku’s Ultimate access. |
| 2 | Use support sequence | Sets up reactions and buffs before Shinku’s main window. |
| 3 | Return to Shinku | Keeps her as the active DPS when the burst starts. |
| 4 | Cast Ultimate | Enters the transformed damage state. |
| 5 | Spend enhanced actions | Converts the window into damage. |
| 6 | Finish or reset | Avoids wasting the end of the Ultimate state. |
The Shinku rotation is about timing, not only button order. Swapping away at the wrong time can waste the state that the whole team was built to support.
Charge support sequence
Guide sources describe using team reactions before Shinku’s Ultimate window so the Shinku rotation has enough resource flow and damage support. The exact order can change by roster, but the principle is stable: build Shinku, prepare the team, then let Shinku spend the damage window.
Mistakes to avoid
- Starting Ultimate before your support sequence is ready.
- Leaving Shinku during the transformed state without a survival reason.
- Treating the Shinku rotation as fixed when your team lacks the same reaction pieces.
- Ignoring enemy movement and wasting enhanced actions on empty space.
Update note
The Shinku rotation will be refined as more Version 1.2 testing appears. Use this page as a practical baseline, then adjust for your support roster and content type.
