Hello, Appraisers!

 

A brand-new S-Class limited character has been leaked! Linko is an Anima-element Sub DPS built around a unique "Synchronized Strike" follow-up attack system, Resonance Overlay damage amplification, and multi-element RES reduction. Based on current leak info, her core value lies in amplifying team follow-up damage and enabling off-field attacks through her ghost companion, Xiaozhen.

 

This leak covers her full kit, Awakening priority, material placeholders, signature weapon, and practical team comps using currently released characters.

▍NTE Linko Kit


1. Basic Attack


pugong.gif


  • Ghost CQC: 5-hit combo. Each hit accumulates [Harmonic] points. [Harmonic] is consumed when casting Redirect Skill: Instant Full-Frequency Resonance to amplify the triggered [Synchronized Strike].

  • Ghost Big Slap!: Hold ATK during Ghost CQC to trigger. Linko slaps the target with both palms.


  • Ghost Entrance!: Airborne ATK. AoE on landing; damage scales with fall height, up to +100%.


  • Ghost Blitz!: While off-field, every 8 seconds Xiaozhen sneaks an attack on the target and applies the [Little Ghost, Hit Here!] mark.

  • Critical Riposte (Getting Hit Means Hitting Back!): Perfect Dodge counter using Ghost CQC. Dashes to the target, dealing 4 AoE Anima hits and accumulating [Harmonic] points.

 

2. Additional Mechanics

 

  • [Synchronized Strike]: A special assist attack that counts as Follow-up Attack damage. Element matches the character initiating it (Anima if initiated by Xiaozhen). Normally does not trigger Resonance reactions. Damage scales with Linko's stats and QTE skill level.

  • [Little Ghost, Hit Here!]: A mark applied to enemies. When the on-field character hits a marked target with a Redirect Skill, the mark is consumed to trigger Linko's [Synchronized Strike], accumulating [Harmonic] points and Resonance Value. Max 1 mark on field at a time. Lasts 10 seconds.


3. Redirect Skill: Instant Full-Frequency Resonance


jineng.gif


Unleashes ghost energy for up to 4 hits of Anima damage, then calls Xiaozhen or a teammate to launch a [Synchronized Strike]. A selection wheel appears — tap to choose a teammate or Xiaozhen.


The chosen [Synchronized Strike] gains a damage bonus and consumes accumulated [Harmonic] points for additional damage.


Time briefly pauses during selection. Xiaozhen is the default option; if a teammate is unable to act or not in the team, Xiaozhen replaces their slot. Each additional Xiaozhen on the wheel grants one extra damage bonus when selected.

 

4. Ultimate: Overload Resonance


dazhao.gif


Linko enters an overloaded state and expands a [Resonance Field], syncing with up to 3 teammates. Tap Redirect Skill to call teammates for [Synchronized Strike] AoE damage, up to 3 times.


When the overload ends (or when tapped again to end early), Linko releases an overload noise wave dealing multiple AoE Anima hits plus one Anima burst — the burst damage scales with the number of debuff types on the target.


5. Assist Skill: Ghost Left Straight!


Linko and Xiaozhen land a serious punch, dealing 1 AoE Anima hit. [Synchronized Strike] damage multipliers scale with this skill's level. Linko can trigger teammate [Synchronized Strike] via three methods: consuming a [Little Ghost, Hit Here!] mark, casting Instant Full-Frequency Resonance, or casting Overload Resonance.

 

6. Passive


  • Weakness Sense: While Linko is in the team, Resonance Overlay's additional follow-up damage is increased to 30%. Targets under Resonance Overlay take 10% increased Follow-up Attack damage.


  • Precision Tuning: When a [Synchronized Strike] triggers, reduces the target's elemental RES matching the initiating character's element for a duration. Multiple element RES reductions can coexist; same-element reductions do not stack and refresh on re-trigger.


7. Trait: Linko Type I Rocket Headbutt!

Outside combat, hold ATK to charge using Xiaozhen's ghost arm; release to launch Linko forward.

Linko's Weakness Sense raises Resonance Overlay follow-up damage to 30% and gives Overlay targets +10% Follow-up damage taken — directly amplifying Zankou's core damage layer.

 

▍Conclusion

 

Linko is a high-value Anima Sub DPS focused on [Synchronized Strike]. She provides off-field damage, multi-element RES reduction, and strong Follow-up Attack buffs. Her Ultimate creates a [Resonance Field] that converts team assists into [Synchronized Strike], making her an excellent partner for Zankou.
