Ciaccona supports Cartethyia alongside Chisa. Cartethyia's best specialist team is Ciaccona plus Chisa. Aero Rover is the accessible healing alternative; both Chisa and Aero Rover raise the Erosion stack limit, while Cartethyia's Sequence 2 reduces her dependence on a third-slot stack helper. Shorekeeper is the safer multi-wave comfort option.
