Analysis
Zankou's rotation revolves around using her enhanced Shift Skill at the highlighted timing to alternate forms. Reality emphasizes direct damage, while Illusion applies and spreads damage-over-time effects. Completing the enhanced Illusion Shift unlocks a two-part Ultimate. She can lead a team as an on-field DPS or support a Lacrimosa DoT composition as a secondary damage dealer.
