▍HSR 4.6 Memory of Chaos Buffs

Memory Turbulence – Survival of the Fittest

When an ally target uses their Ultimate, they gain 5 Punchlines.

At the start of each Cycle, Aha immediately gains 1 extra turn with a fixed 20 Punchlines. This turn does not consume Punchlines.

The free Aha turn every cycle and the constant Punchline generation make high-Ultimate teams and Elation compositions the strongest options this rotation.

▍Enemy Lineup and Weaknesses

First Half

Main Boss: Borisin Warhead: Hoolay

Common Adds: Rocking Rebel, Decaying Shadow

Weaknesses: Fire, Physical, Wind

Hoolay summons minions and stacks Bloodlust. High-frequency attacks and reliable Toughness break help control his Moon Rage state.

Second Half

Main Boss: Blood of the Fallen God: Yabuli

Common Adds: Moonlit Pegasus, Noontide Gryphon

Weaknesses: Quantum, Ice, Imaginary

Yabuli favors strong single-target burst. Clear the supporting waves quickly so you can focus the boss.
