Overview

An S-rank Lakshana Main DPS from the second half of 1.1 (the "Forsaken Path" banner) and a member of ETD-6. His on-field Basic Attacks build "Crime," his Skill applies "Warrant" for bonus damage, and at full Crime he holds Basic Attack to unleash "Final Verdict" for a big payoff. In the open world his mist hounds double as teleport anchors.

Analysis

Chaos is the limited Lakshana Main DPS from the second half of 1.1 (4Gamers rates him "strongest T0 raw damage"), with a simple, self-contained rotation. Stack Crime on field, keep Warrant on your targets (15s, +20% damage, raised to 30% by his passive Prime Target), then hold Basic Attack for the Final Verdict payoff. His Ultimate "Retribution" enters Dread Echo to refill Crime quickly. His passive Justice in Time deals heavy damage when Remora ends, so he gains the most next to Hathor.

Skills

Skill names follow English wiki naming; in-game names are authoritative.

Basic Attack

Pursuit

Tap Basic Attack for up to 5 chained hits, dealing Lakshana DMG and steadily building "Crime."

Charged Basic

Final Verdict

Hold Basic Attack. Below the Crime cap only the first hit lands; at full Crime he consumes all of it and adds a second hit for heavy Settlement DMG. His main burst.

Aerial Basic

Overturn

Tap Basic Attack while airborne to plunge, dealing Lakshana AoE DMG on impact. Damage scales with fall height (up to 1x).

Shift Skill

Doubtmark

His hound strikes and applies "Warrant" to up to 2 enemies for 15s. Chaos deals 20% more damage to Warrant targets, and the skill builds a large amount of Crime.

EX-Rail Ultimate

Retribution

Summons the hound to suppress nearby enemies, applies Warrant to everyone in range and enters "Dread Echo," during which Crime rises quickly. The core of his burst loop.

Assist Skill

Onslaught

Swap-in attack that deals one instance of Lakshana DMG.

Passive

Justice in Time

When a target's Remora state ends, deals Lakshana DMG equal to 800% ATK. Every second of Remora beyond the 5s baseline adds +45% damage, up to +300%, which is why Hathor (who extends Remora) is his best partner.

Passive

Prime Target

Raises the Warrant damage bonus from 20% to 30%.

Awakenings (M1–M6)

Awakening effects cross-checked with English databases; the in-game text is authoritative.

M1

Piercing Insight: When attacking an enemy marked with Warrant, gain an extra 30% Crime.

M2

Charge / Sin: When attacking an enemy marked with Warrant, ignore 20% of the target's DEF.

M3

Emberflare: After casting Retribution, CRIT DMG +30% for 20s (refreshes on retrigger).

M4

Drowning Tide: When a Warrant target is defeated, Warrant transfers to a nearby unmarked enemy and its duration is recalculated.

M5

Voidgaze: When only one Warrant target remains on the field, Chaos deals 20% more damage to it.

M6

False Origin: After casting Retribution, Crime is instantly restored to its cap.

Signature Arc

What's Desired

Base ATK 570 Sub-stat CRIT Rate 24%

Lakshana DMG +25%; after casting a Redirect Skill or Ultimate, CRIT DMG +40% for 20s (refreshes on retrigger). Featured on the "Pursuit Special" Arc banner that ran alongside his character banner; his best-in-slot Arc. (Some databases list the Lakshana bonus as 20%; the in-game text is authoritative.)

Build Tips

Built as a Main DPS (raw damage carry; 4Gamers calls him the "strongest T0"). Stay on field to stack Crime, apply Warrant with Doubtmark, and hold Basic Attack for Final Verdict at full Crime. His Ultimate "Retribution" enters "Dread Echo" to refill Crime quickly. Best partner: Hathor (Remora). Signature Arc: "What's Desired"; recommended Gear set: "Street Boxer." Awakening priority: A1, A5, A6.
