Frequently Asked Questions:
Should I use a Critical Rate or Critical Damage 4 cost? If you have her Signature use a Critical Rate echo, if using Static Mist use a Critical Damage echo. If you have her Signature, use 1 Attack% 3 cost and 1 Glacio 3 cost with Attack % 1 costs. If using Static Mist, 3 costs go 2x Glacio and 1 costs go Attack%.
How many copies should I pull for? S1 is a great damage boost if you don't want to spend much. If you do, then S3 is a solid stopping point, giving her the largest overall boost in damage comparatively aside from S6 obviously.
How do I play Carlotta? (Basic Rotation): Start on Carlotta, Skill 1 + Skill 2 > Swap to Shorekeeper (or your healer) and activate buffs/outro > Swap to Zhezhi (or your sub dps) and activate buffs/outro > Swap back to Carlotta and assuming forte is full, use forte into full liberation > Repeat.
Should I Pull Her Signature or Zhezhi? If you have Static Mist, Zhezhi becomes a great addition for both Carlotta and your account. If you don't have Static Mist, pull her Signature first as a 4-cost weapon is a huge damage decrease that Zhezhi will not compensate for.
How much better is her Signature Weapon? Roughly 17% better than Static Mist. For maximum returns, you should pull Carlotta S0 > Zhezhi if you have Static Mist > Signature
