Of course this isn't applicable now, but if you want to build your Soukaku for the future, it isn't actually that hard to reach the needed atk for the 1000 atk buff. At core passive lv7 and consuming vortex she buffs 40% of her atk, which means to reach 1000, she need 2500 atk.
With her sig weapon, bashful demon, this can be done with one atk% main stat on your disk drives and a non-Hormone Punk 2 piece, as long as you have about 15% in substats which would be just having an atk% substat on each other piece (3% x 5). This gets her to roughly 2507 atk.

calcs:
lv60 + lv60 wep: 665 + 624 = 1289
wep adv stat + 1 main stat + 15% in substats: 25% + 30% + 15% = 70% > 1289 x 1.7 = 2191
slot 2 flat atk: 316 > 2191 + 316 = 2507 atk

Soukaku is basically just Sword's dance>Baton Pass.

10:15 the reason why the 4-piece effect doesn't transfer over is likely due to the way that ATK% buffs/increases work in ZZZ.
Unlike in Genshin and Star Rail, there are actually 2 types of ATK%, which is easiest explained as Out of Combat (OC) and In Combat (IC) ATK%.
OC ATK% are ATK increases that do not have an activation trigger. This includes any effects that simply read "Increases ATK by X%", or any ATK% from your Disk Drive main/substats or Wengine substats.
Alternatively, IC ATK% are ATK increases that *_DO have an activation trigger_* and are turned on/off in combat.

This is fairly important to recognise as OC and IC ATK% buffs are actually multiplicative with one another, so the diminishing returns on ATK% may not be as bad as they seem at face value under the right circumstances.

Interestingly, this also applies to Impact% and the Daze multiplier.

The way I'd assume Soukaku's ATK buff works is that it only considers OC ATK% when calculating her bonus ATK as a part of her skill, and not her Total ATK at the time of its usage. If this is the case, then it would only be beneficial to build her with effects that provide OC ATK% and not IC ATK%.

I watched every Guide they are very usefull am waiting for koleda Guide now

[dlvarcade]

In terms of optimal damage combo for her, I noticed that if you go Special>Basic, she immediately goes into hit 3 of Basic chain with the super high multiplier (600+). Get in to Frosted Banner then rotate special>basic and you’re doing a lot of personal damage.

I've been investing on Soukaku after noticing how strong Lucy can be. Believe it or not, she and Lycaon duo can take down the Ch.3 final boss in just 2 minutes or less.
She's capable of being the main carry, because her switch assist and ultimate are really strong. Her M6 simply allows her to deal a lot of damage in the damage window afterwards.
I'm looking to build Anby and Nicole next to prep for Zhu Yuan's release. Can't wait to get her. :)

[lunerblade]

4:30 you do know that their is a ridiculously easier method to get her stacks and it’s just tapping the skill. And depending on your enrgy levels not only can you use it repeatedly going from zero to max stacks fairly quickly but then you can transition into her vortex>fly the flag stage in the same action.

kinda off topic but considering that alot of people rn always say to use ult on dps since it deals massive damage to the enemy (which is the most logical way to use your ult) seeing how soukaku can kinda be a battery to your team and not just deal damage with her ult wouldn't it be better if they split the ult usage into 1k decibels each? and put a cooldown on it (since reaching 1k is easy enough if you can break shields and proc disorder) to prevent ult spamming at least so that the ultimate kit on characters other than dps unit can be usable

Thank you so much, you're really making life easier to beginners like me. I would appreciate a Lucy guide soon but everything does help!

[Dizzylycanthrophic]

Thanks for the guide, great content! Your explanation is very simple to understand. Keep it coming! Thank you!

[marcusbullock]

My most comfortable team to play is Corrin Lycoan and Soukkaku since they can all parry. So even if I mess up the rotation I can still parry attacks with all three.

[blumstein]

This video convinced me you know your stuff. Subscribed; looking forward to more in-depth analyses from you in the future.

[ninekung]

dam, you are the best guide i have ever seen. Easy to understand it help me a LOT

[meco]

lost my 50/50 to koleda, got her weapon, then pulled her i standard, not going to pull for ellen, but still watched for miyabi

[unlucky]

What's the proper rotation for Ellen, Lycaon, Soukaku?
Who should do the chain and chain break/freeze?
Does her chain spin trigger attack buff for the next chain character?

[nt]

I have tested it physically and found swing Jazz to be better in all situations where soukaku is played as a support. The 15 dmg buff is really big and overvalues the anomaly proficiency.

[carismo]

Soukaku might be the cutest, unexpected character I've pulled!

[kanekikun]

A very useful and beautiful video. I hope you add a cut to the video to make learning easier🖤🥀

[sabotagge]

Got her R5C5 (or the equivalent on this game) while getting Ellen and her W-engine, shes a litle monster.
