Pros & Cons
Pros
Excellent AoE damage in a large radius making her one of the top AoE DPS.
Easy to understand and play with a little bit of practice.
Still capable of dealing great damage even without access to her Ultimate - unlike other characters.
Gains Interruption resistance throughout the majority of her combo.
Spin to Win.
Cons
Less mobile than other characters during her rotation due to her kit requiring her to channel abilities or be Airborne most of the time.
May have less efficient rotations against highly mobile enemies due to her channeled abilities missing some of their duration due to enemy movement.
Missing a portion of (or entire) abilities interrupts her vital Concerto Energy generation, meaning you'll need to add in other abilities to compensate.
Trust me, you can't fix her.
Review
Camellya is a 5-star Havoc Sword wielder who specializes in dealing overwhelming Basic Attack-focused AoE damage. She fulfills a similar role to Jiyan in teams - a Hyper Carry with high field time requirements and an AoE wrecking ball. However what she differs in, is that she is far less reliant on her Ultimate, and as a Basic Attack user, she works best with different teammates. Furthermore, she possesses the ability to generate an unparalleled amount of Concerto Energy and then use it to activate Special Abilities to empower her kit dramatically. She is also currently the only character in-game who is able to consume Concerto outside of Outro and Intro Skill and doing so is part of her strongest rotations. With that said let's learn how to generate and spend that Concerto for maximum damage!
Camellya is a character that's all about specialized Airborne states and the enhanced abilities and buffs they come up with. As such, gaining access to (and executing optimal combos within them) is her main goal. She has access to two specialized states - the weaker “Blossom Mode” and the more powerful “Budding Mode”. Entering either state launches Camellya Airborne and keeps her there until she exits herself with an appropriate ability. Both of these modes restrict her movement to Dashes and Dash-based attacks only. “Blossom Mode” lasts indefinitely or until canceled, whereas the “Budding Mode” only remains active for a short while. “Blossom mode” and the enhanced abilities it offers are easily accessible at almost all times during combat and is superior in almost every way to her standard Ground-based mode of play. “Budding Mode” in contrast offers a similar array of enhanced attacks but is much harder to enter - requiring Concerto Energy to do so - but in return, it grants her incredibly potent buffs while active. Based on this her basic play pattern is as follows:
Enter “Blossom Mode”.
Execute Enhanced Abilities until enough Concerto Energy is generated.
Enter “Budding Mode”.
Execute Buffed Enhanced Abilities until forced to exit.
Now, with the basics covered let's break down each of her abilities to get into specifics.
Her Resonance skill “Crimson Blossom” has a 4-second cooldown, deals damage, and causes her to become Airborne, immediately entering “Blossom Mode”. While in “Blossom Mode” or “Budding Mode” each of the following abilities is enhanced:
As we’ve learned already, each enhanced ability is much stronger than the original. Her enhanced Basic Attack - Vining Waltz is the bread and butter of her combo. It causes her to dash toward targets while performing Spinning Whipping attacks that target all enemies in a wide arc around her. Using all 4 parts of this attack is optimal, but after the 3rd attack, she has the option to press and hold the Basic Attack to begin spinning in place performing Blazing Waltz instead, which deals tremendous damage to all targets in range over its duration. Blazing Waltz is almost always a worthwhile addition to every Basic Attack combo making the heart of her rotation.
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 1
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 2
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 3
Skill: Blazing Waltz (Full Channel)
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 4
Her enhanced Resonance Skill - Floral Ravage shares the same 4-second cooldown as Crimson Blossom, deals damage, and causes her to immediately exit “Blossom Mode” and become Ground-based once again. Floral Ravage is best used as a finisher and should be only used when you’re prepared to wait-out the cooldown to get Airborne and access “Blossom Mode” again via Crimson Blossom or are about to switch Camellya off the field.
Her enhanced Dodge Counter isn’t important to her core rotation but can be used when Dodging is necessary and is useful for Concerto Energy generation if you find yourself in need of (which as we’ll find out when we get to her Forte explanation, that it can be quite an important tool to have in your arsenal)
Similar to her Dodge Counter her enhanced “Jump” is also situationally useful for Concerto Energy generation, but moves her position much higher into the air making targeting more challenging - often needing to execute her Mid-Air Attack to reposition.
Her Forte Gauge is next and it does a lot. The main component of her Forte is a resource called “Crimson Pistils” which can be tracked on the Forte Gauge itself. Camellya can hold up to 100 “Crimson Pistils” at a time and can recover 100 of them via either her Intro Skill or her Special Forte Ability - Ephemeral. When Camellya has “Crimson Pistils” and uses any of the following abilities she consumes them for bonuses:
Any Ground-based Normal Attack (Basic, Heavy, Mid-Air, Dodge Counter)
Basic Attack: Vining Waltz
Basic Attack: Blazing Waltz
Jump: Vining Ronde
Dodge Counter: Atonement
Skill: Crimson Blossom
Skill: Floral Ravage
Each ability consumes a varying amount of “Crimson Pistils” but when any attack does so, its Energy Regen Multiplier increases by 150% for that attack. Additionally, for every 10 “Crimson Pistils” consumed Camellya gains 4 Concerto Energy plus another resource called “Crimson Buds” which can be stacked up to 10 times and which we’ll use in a bit (100 “Crimson Pistils” = 10 “Crimson Buds” stacks).
The other function of Camellya’s Forte is granting her access to the alternative enhanced Resonance Skill - Ephemeral we mentioned earlier. Ephemeral deals massive Havoc damage with a huge 25-second cooldown and a whopping 100 Concerto Energy activation requirement. Upon acquiring 100 Concerto Energy - and as long as it’s not on cooldown - her Resonance Skill will be converted to Ephemeral automatically. Using it consumes 70 Concerto Energy leaving you with 30 left, recovers all 100 “Crimson Pistils” and causes her to enter “Budding Mode”.
“Budding Mode” is the second of her specialized states that lasts until she is switched off the field or all the “Crimson Pistils” generated via Ephemeral are consumed. While within “Budding Mode” every attack capable of consuming “Crimson Pistils” listed earlier is massively enhanced gaining a 50% increase to their Base Damage Multiplier (96.33% x 1.5 = 144.5%). Furthermore, Camellya increases this bonus a further 5% for every “Crimson Bud” she possesses when using Ephemeral - for 10 stacks max (10 stacks = 50% additional bonus); for a potential total “Budding Mode” bonus of 100% Additional Damage Multipliers. As a trade-off, during “Budding mode” instead of gaining the usual Energy Regen bonus from consuming “Crimson Pistils”, Camellya has her Energy Regen Multiplier bonus on “Crimson Pistils” consuming abilities set to 0% and cannot generate “Crimson Buds”. However, she still gains Concerto Energy for every 10 “Crimson Pistils” consumed. Thus, her Forte and “Budding Mode” by extension are both the fuel and payoff for her kit, and playing around them is essential.
Her Intro not only is essential for generating “Crimson Pistils” but also generates an above-average 20 Concerto Energy on use, making it all the more important when pursuing quick access to Ephemeral and “Budding Mode”. Aim to have her Intro available before switching to her whenever possible.
Her Resonance Liberation or Ultimate is simply a large Havoc damage nuke that generates a sizable amount of Concerto Energy as fuel for her rotation while sharing a 25-second cooldown with Ephemeral, making aligning the two ideal. As her Ultimate does not benefit from “Budding Mode’s” damage multipliers, it makes it a good option to use beforehand to quickly build Concerto Energy to reach Ephemeral faster.
Her Outro simply deals a large amount of Havoc damage with an additional large hit granted if she used Ephemeral before activating it - something she already very much intended on doing. As for her Normal Attacks - they aren't that useful in her mostly Airborne kit, rotation, or game plan making them situational additions only used in specific scenarios when aiming to achieve certain goals.
Lastly, rounding out her kit - her Inherent Skills grants her some handy bonuses. Her first Inherent Skill - Epiphyte offers her a passive 15% Havoc damage bonus and causes her Ground-based Basic Attacks plus Airborne Vining Waltz and Blazing Waltz to gain increased Interruption resistance. Damage% bonuses are always welcome but the Interruption resistance is a huge boon for Camellya as she spends most of her time performing a combination of Vining Waltz and Blazing Waltz, meaning she retains this resistance for most of her total field time. Her second Inherent Skill - Seedbed at the time of our testing was much harder to use, it converts her Heavy Attack to Basic Attack damage and causes it to grant 15% Havoc damage on use (The English translation that appears does not match its in-game effect). This bonus is great, but using this ability makes her playstyle more challenging and a little awkward requiring her to mix Aerial and Ground-based attacks - the worth of this skill is currently up in the air (we’re waiting for an updated translation or ability effect).
Bringing it all together, Camellya’s full game plan is focused on building Concerto Energy and “Crimson Buds” to access and empower Ephemeral for a massive burst damage window, switch out, and bide time while waiting for her 25-second cooldowns to become available. To achieve an optimal rotation Camellya must generate 100 Concerto Energy quickly through any means necessary to access Ephemeral, execute an optimal burst rotation while rebuilding her Concerto Energy to 100, follow that up with her Outro, and then switch out. Here is what a combination of all her abilities can look like in order to first build 100 Concerto Energy quickly then rebuild the additional 70 required for the Outro.
Intro
Skill: Crimson Blossom (Enters “Blossom State”)
Ultimate (For Concerto Generation)
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 1
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 2
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 3
Skill: Blazing Waltz (Full Channel)
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 4
Forte: Skill: Ephemeral (Enters “Budding State”)
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 1
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 2
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 3
Skill: Blazing Waltz (Full Channel)
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 4
Skill: Floral Ravage
Outro
This combo generates exactly 170 Concerto Energy and 8 “Crimson Buds” before Ephemeral (90% Additional Damage Multiplier) making it a strong option for those looking for a clean-cut rotation without too many additions. One thing to be on the lookout for though, is if you miss an ability or part of a Blazing Waltz Charge you’ll be short on Concerto Energy required and will need to weave in other attacks as a substitute.
In conclusion, Camellya is a Resonator that is relatively easy to get your head around as she possesses excellent AoE damage potential and isn’t too reliant on her Ultimate outside of the Concerto Energy it provides. Her long rotation and cooldowns put her firmly in the Hypercarry category, but unlike others, she still has passable AoE damage without her cooldowns (Ultimate and “Budding Mode”) just relying on “Blossom mode”. Being constantly Airborne, with movement limited to Attack based Dashes and Dodges might not be everyone's cup of tea and/or hard to get used to but if you can she certainly packs a punch as one of the top DPS in the game at the time of her release.

Outstanding Sword choice, offering significantly higher base damage due to its 5★ rarity, as well as a stackable ATK% buff almost every character can effortlessly get 1 stack of (but with 2 also being easily achievable by most when played correctly). Additionally has a good amount of Energy Regen, which on most characters will allow one sub-stat of Energy Regen to be allocated elsewhere to increase damage even further.

An amazing, completely free 4* option for characters who have extended field times, providing a rare CRIT Rate boost and loads of ATK. However, due to the nature of its buffs stacking up over time, this sword will deminish a lot in power if the wielder swaps out in less than 10 seconds.

Sword option for Heavy and Basic ATK users with an easy to trigger passive - with the only downside being its 10 second time limit. For characters that use their Skill multiple times per rotation, this downside is a non-issue but for Main DPS characters who take up a lot of field time and don't use their skill often this sword can lose value.

Stats at Level 90: ATK: 412 | ATK: 30.3%

Stats at Level 90: ATK: 412 | ATK: 30.3%

Rotation
Gameplay
Crimson Pistils and Concerto Energy are essential to Camellya's rotation and without them she cannot function. Camellya's Intro is one of her only accessible sources of Crimson Pistils and grants a big amount of Concerto - it is essential to ensure it is always available before swapping to her so that she can start generating resources & Concerto Energy properly. It is not recommended to swap into her beforehand aside from very minor optimizations which we will discuss right below.
Echo Timing: Camellya has 3 different main Echo options. In the instance that she is using Dreamless, simply using it at the end of her rotation and swap-cancelling it is the best course of action. It is also possible to use it pre-rotation if the player is comfortable doing so. In the case of Crownless, it’s possible to dash-cancel it while still getting its buffs, which are best to obtain before casting her Forte Ephemeral skill, bonus points if it’s possible to catch her Ultimate within that time frame as well.
Lastly, for her best Echo Nightmare Crownless, it’s possible to use its numerous skill casts prior to executing her rotation as well as after each Vining Waltz part 4 and Basic Attack part 4 (in other words, at the end of each of her spins). No need to worry about buff uptime in the case of this Echo, since they are permanent when equipped in the main slot.
Standard Rotation
This is the easiest and one of the most efficient approaches Camellya has for completing a rotation. This rotation is always the best to execute in Whimpering Wastes or any other AoE situations and is also on par (or close to it) with her White Hair rotation in single-target scenarios in Tower of Adversity for example. The main focus is consuming Crimson Pistils in order to generate Crimson Buds as quickly as possible to then cast her Forte Skill Ephemeral and consume all of her second Crimson Pistil gauge as quickly as possible, ensuring a smooth rotation through your full team, as follows:
Intro
Skill: Crimson Blossom
Ultimate
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 1
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 2
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 3
Skill: Blazing Waltz (Full Channel)
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 4
Forte: Skill: Ephemeral
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 1
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 2
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 3
Skill: Blazing Waltz (Full Channel)
Skill: Basic Attack: Vining Waltz 4
Skill: Floral Ravage
Outro
Double Intro Rotation
This rotation is a bit more specialized, as it focuses on building Camellya’s Ephemeral skill by consuming Crimson Pistils before introing into her via your secondary buffer (such as your Sanhua or Roccia) and using it as soon as those buffs are applied. Doing this requires you to feed Camellya with both your Support (3rd teammate) and your secondary buffer (2nd teammate)’s Outro skills. What this allows you to do is use her spin skills a couple of times after having used the Ephemeral skill, which will lead to higher damage per rotation at the cost of a lot of field time.
Ultimately, while this combo is not worthwhile in terms of DPS, it’s only a minor loss and can lead to quicker finishes of boss HP if it’s not possible to kill it using the Standard Rotation as the last one you’ll execute in a fight. It’s also significantly more consistent since Camellya usually suffers from being interrupted when performing the Standard Rotation, whereas this rotation has a lot of room for error all throughout, making it friendlier for players who aren’t familiar with a given boss’s mechanics (again with a minor loss in DPS).

Outro
White Hair Rotation
Again this rotation is more specialized, this time towards single-target encounters. This combo has the highest DPS by a small margin when executed properly, as it allows Camellya to quickly exploit her Basic Attack multipliers, which is her attack string that’s able to chase enemies around and deal higher damage but lacks any amount of AoE. While it should be worth noting this combo is only worth executing if Camellya’s Basic Attack to the same level as her Resonance Skill due how close in damage this rotation is to the standard version, executing this rotation leads to slightly higher DPS and better enemy tracking, which will make it more consistent against more mobile bosses and is worth learning for that reason.

Danjin - The best Hybrid choices for Camellya, Lynae generally being the best as her generalist buffs are too many to count and make Camellya's damage skyrocket. Roccia is another one of her premium options, very comparable to Sanhua as they each provide great ATK and Basic Attack DMG Amplification buffs for her, Sanhua generally being the best F2P choice and better than Roccia if she doesn't have her Signature; Danjin is an additional option if Sanhua is already taken elsewhere as she also gives a solid general Havoc DMG Amplification buff on her Outro.
Verina - As the two best generalist Supports by heaps and bounds, it's no surprise Shorekeeper and Verina can slot in almost any team in the game as they provide high team-wide ATK% and 15% DMG Amplify. Shorekeeper additionally provides CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG, always making her the best choice for Camellya teams, but Verina is a close, more accessible second provided Shorekeeper isn't available.

Damage Output
Don't use the damage output calculations as an indication on who is worth pulling or investing as those are just simulations and in day-to-day gameplay there's a lot variables and also the skill of the player is important - if you can't consistently perform the character's rotation, their damage will suffer.
As usual, don't compare the numbers between characters - especially between Main DPS and Hybrids as they fulfill different roles in the team.
Additional information
The numbers below show the character's DPS (Damage Per Second) and DMG (total damage done). When selecting the rotations we prioritized achieving 100 Concerto as fast as possible and once that condition was fulfilled, we focused on maximizing the damage output. As or if new and more optimal rotations are found, we'll update the characters calculations as needed. Listed character calculations are done without buffs or any damage contribution from teammates (full solo). They only include what the character, their Weapon, Echo and gear are capable of during their ideal Burst or Concerto rotation when starting with their Intro and Resonance Liberation available.
Do note that DPS and DMG aren’t perfect metrics for a character’s individual value and should be taken with a grain of salt. Anything pertaining a character’s relevance in the meta is addressed in our Review and Tier List, which the numbers below shouldn’t be used for as an end-all-be-all to. Instead, DPS and DMG are good metrics for a character’s sequence value and comparison between an individual character’s different rotations. We recommend using those metrics for such purposes.
