Release4.7

Aeon ★ Aha is the first playable Aeon: a Quantum Elation support whose Ultimate grants Faces of Elation and ascends the Path of Elation, so that every Elation ally activates an exclusive Innate Trace. Running on Wishpower instead of Energy, Aha also gives the whole team CRIT DMG, makes one ally the Emanator of Elation, leads every Aha Instant and closes it with True DMG, while their Aeonic Authority applies Elation Debt that eats into enemy Max HP. The capstone of Elation teams, but much weaker outside them.

Relics

Dreamlit Actor ×4

Set effects
2pIncreases SPD by 6%.
4pWhen the wearer uses their Skill or Ultimate on one other ally target, increases the ability target's Elation by 16%, lasting for 3 turn(s). If the wearer has 10 or more points of Certified Banger, additionally increases all ally targets' CRIT DMG by 12%, lasting for 3 turn(s).
Diviner of Distant Reach ×4

Set effects
2pIncreases SPD by 6%.
4pBefore entering combat, if the wearer's SPD is greater than or equal to 120/160, increases the wearer's CRIT Rate by 10%/18%. When the wearer uses Elation Skill for the first time in each battle, increases all allies' Elation by 10%. This effect cannot stack.

The Talent comes first: its level raises the team-wide CRIT DMG buff (up to 40% at Lv. 10). Major Traces: A Prank on Aeons (A2) unlocks first and makes the Skill Skill Point-neutral; then A Box of Everything (A6) and A Carnival in Whimsy (A4).

Teams

Recommended teams

Mono-Elation (Silver Wolf LV.999)

Four Elation characters: Silver Wolf LV.999 is the Emanator, and every teammate activates an Innate Trace during Faces of Elation. Sparxie can take Silver Wolf LV.999's place as the carry.

Mono-Elation (Evanescia)

The same core around Evanescia. For a cheaper version, the free Trailblazer (Elation) can fill the damage slot.

Aventurine • Waveflair

A lighter Elation core: Aventurine • Waveflair brings shields and his own Elation damage, Ashveil fills the damage slot, and Hyacine's healing feeds Aha's A4. Fewer Innate Traces are active than in a full Elation team.

Guide

How to play

How Aha works

  • Wishpower instead of Energy (Talent – Work Wonders with THEM). The Ultimate needs 8 Wishpower, which can overflow up to 10. Aha gains 1 Wishpower after each Basic ATK, Skill or Elation Skill, 1 at the start of the Emanator's turn, and 1 the first time the team's Punchline reaches 40 — which also gives all allies +40% CRIT DMG for 3 turns (Lv. 10). This can trigger again after each Aha Instant.
  • Skill (This Emanator Was Certified by Aha™). Makes another ally the Emanator of Elation for the whole battle (until Aha picks a new target): +20% Elation (Lv. 10) and 1 Wishpower for Aha at the start of each of their turns. Aha then launches a Follow-up ATK for 50% Quantum Elation DMG to all enemies. With the A2 (A Prank on Aeons), it adds 20% Elation DMG of the Emanator's Type and recovers 1 Skill Point.
  • Ultimate (Aha! Let There Be Laughter, 8 Wishpower). Advances the next Aha Instant by 20% and grants Faces of Elation for 3 of Aha's turns, then deals 200% Quantum Elation DMG to all enemies followed by 5 hits of 60% on random enemies. During Faces of Elation, the Path of Elation ascends: each Elation ally (Sparxie, Yao Guang, Silver Wolf LV.999, Evanescia, Pearl, Aventurine • Waveflair, Trailblazer) activates an exclusive Innate Trace, Punchline and Certified Banger take enhanced forms, and Aha gains CRIT Rate and DEF ignore.
  • Elation Skill (Yes Aha At Full Moon). Always used at the end of the Aha Instant: 60% Quantum Elation DMG to all enemies, plus True DMG equal to 20% of all the non-True DMG allies dealt during that Aha Instant, split evenly among enemies. With Aha in the team, Aha leads the Aha Instant: its base SPD becomes Aha's and it plays out faster.
  • Aeonic Authority (The True Story of Aha). Whenever Aha or a teammate deals DMG, the enemy receives Elation Debt equal to 25% of the HP it lost, up to 10% of its Max HP. That share of Max HP is claimed (current HP inside it is lost) and the Debt persists through phase transitions.
  • Traces. A4 (A Carnival in Whimsy): +1 Wishpower when a teammate heals or shields Aha, once per Ultimate. A6 (A Box of Everything): +120% / +150% Elation at 125 / 150 SPD, and a 30% action advance at the start of combat.
  • Technique (ABRACADABRA!). Creates a Special Dimension for 20 seconds in which enemies are inflicted with Optical Illusion and can't detect you; at the start of combat, an extra Aha Instant counts a fixed 20 Punchline without consuming any.

Rotation

  1. Use the Technique before every fight for a free Aha Instant at the start of combat.
  2. Use the Skill on your main Elation damage dealer to make them the Emanator. With the A2 it refunds its Skill Point, so you can use it every turn on the same ally (with the signature Light Cone, it also grants 10 Punchline at most once every other turn).
  3. Cast the Ultimate as soon as Aha has 8 Wishpower, ideally when your damage dealer is about to act: Faces of Elation only lasts 3 of Aha's turns.
  4. The Elation Skill is used automatically at the end of every Aha Instant.

Tips

  • SPD first: 125 is the minimum for the A6, 150 the goal. At 125 SPD the A6 alone already exceeds the 40% Elation needed by God's Moment of Joy's opening action advance.
  • Play Aha with three other Elation characters to activate as many Innate Traces as possible.
  • A healer or shielder in the team feeds the A4 with an extra Wishpower each Ultimate cycle.
  • ATK does not affect Elation DMG: on Aha, CRIT stats and SPD are what count.

Strengths

  • Unique buffs for every Elation character through the Path of Elation ascension
  • Team-wide +40% CRIT DMG from the Talent, plus 16% DEF ignore for all allies with the signature Light Cone
  • Elation Debt claims up to 10% of enemy Max HP, even through boss phase transitions
  • Adds True DMG at the end of every Aha Instant and speeds the Aha Instant up
  • Skill Point-neutral Skill and simple stats: SPD and CRIT

Weaknesses

  • Most of Aha's value disappears outside Elation teams
  • The Ultimate runs on Wishpower: it needs SPD, and a healer or shielder to make the most of the A4
  • Faces of Elation only lasts 3 of Aha's turns, so the Ultimate must be timed with the carry
