Elyms Kit and Skill Guide
The core of the Elyms kit is Connection Strength, which has three levels: Weak, Medium, and Strong.
Her attacks and skills gradually increase Connection Strength, improving her Ultimate damage and coordinated attacks.
|
Skill Type |
Main Effects |
|
Basic Attack |
Deals Cosmos DMG and unlocks enhanced Redirect Skills |
|
Redirect Skill |
Deals Cosmos DMG, increases Connection Strength, and enables Instant Cycle |
|
Support Skill |
Deals damage when entering combat and helps increase Connection Strength |
|
Ultimate |
Deals damage, increases team ATK and Follow-up Attack DMG, and enables off-field attacks |
|
Passive |
Strengthens Charge and Remora-related team interactions |
The most important Elyms skill is her Ultimate, which provides offensive buffs based partly on her Base ATK.
After activating her Ultimate, Elyms enters the On-the-Line state, allowing her to perform coordinated attacks while another character is on the field.
Her Redirect Skill also refills the Cycle gauge, enabling more frequent Esper Cycle interactions.

Elyms Gameplay and Rotation
Effective Elyms gameplay requires building Connection Strength before using her Ultimate.
A practical rotation follows these steps:
- Enter combat and complete her Basic Attack sequence to unlock an enhanced Redirect Skill.
- Use the enhanced skill to increase Connection Strength from Weak to Medium.
- Complete the next attack sequence and enhanced skill to reach Strong Connection.
- Activate Ultimate at Strong Connection for higher damage and team buffs.
- Use her regular Redirect Skill to refill the Cycle gauge, then switch to your main DPS.
Elyms continues dealing coordinated damage from off-field, allowing the main attacker to benefit from her support.
Avoid using Ultimate too early unless the situation requires immediate damage.
Best Elyms Arc
Elyms' best Arc is Echoes on Hold, her signature S-Class Solid Arc.
It improves her offensive performance and provides valuable team benefits, including DEF Ignore and Cosmos RES Ignore effects.
For alternative options, Day Off improves energy recovery and Ultimate availability, while The Rain That Shook the World focuses on Elyms' personal damage.
Blow up the Crowd is a useful support-oriented alternative because it benefits the active teammate.
Players without premium Arcs can also consider First Step to Success as an accessible early option.
Elyms Console: Cartridge / Modules
The Elyms console setup depends on whether you prioritize team support or personal damage.

Situational |
Speedy Hedgehog is particularly useful when Elyms serves primarily as a buffer. Its four-piece effect increases team ATK after Ultimate, but identical bonuses do not stack.
Lost Radiance is preferable when maximizing her coordinated attacks and Ultimate damage.
When choosing Elyms' Cartridges and Modules, prioritize the appropriate main stats before optimizing substats.
Remember that her team ATK buff scales with Base ATK. Additional ATK% from equipment improves her own damage but does not directly increase that base-ATK-based buff.
Elyms Awakenings and Resonance
Elyms awakenings and resonance improve both her support capabilities and combat efficiency.
|
Awakening |
Main Benefit |
|
A1 |
Additional team CRIT DMG after Ultimate |
|
A3 |
Generates extra Optical Illusion stacks |
|
A4 |
Increases team CRIT DMG while Elyms remains alive |
Resonance milestones become available after unlocking three and six Awakenings.
The three-Awakening milestone improves her skill rotation, while the six-Awakening milestone provides additional offensive benefits.
Players should verify the final global-server descriptions before investing in duplicate copies.
Best Elyms Team Compositions
A strong Elyms team should benefit from Cosmos damage buffs, Instant Cycle, or Follow-up Attack interactions.
|
Team Type |
Recommended Characters |
|
Shinku Charge Team |
Shinku, Elyms, Akane Rin, Iroi
|
|
Akane Rin Team |
Akane Rin, Elyms, Haniel, Iroi
|
|
Blossom Team |
Nanally, Elyms, Jiuyuan, Zero
|
Shinku Charge Team: Shinku benefits from Elyms' Cosmos damage buffs, while Akane Rin and Iroi support reaction-based damage and energy generation.
Akane Rin Team: Elyms provides additional buffs and cycle support, helping Akane Rin maintain offensive pressure.
Blossom Team: Elyms contributes Instant Cycle and Follow-up Attack support, although the team's effectiveness depends on its complete rotation.
Should You Pull Elyms?
Elyms is worth pulling if you already have Shinku or other characters who benefit from Cosmos-related buffs.
Her Instant Cycle mechanic, team-wide offensive support, and coordinated attacks make her a flexible addition to several compositions.
However, players lacking a strong main DPS may prefer to save resources for a dedicated damage dealer.
Her signature Arc enhances her support potential, but it is not mandatory for using her basic kit.
Final Thoughts
Elyms is a promising Cosmos support character whose greatest strengths are team buffs, Instant Cycle, and off-field damage.
Prioritize her Ultimate, choose Speedy Hedgehog for support or Lost Radiance for personal damage, and build teams that benefit from her reaction mechanics.
