RECOMMENDED ROTATION
Chisa WuWa RotationResonance Liberation • Moment of Nihility: Deals Havoc DMG and restores the team's HP. Grants 40 Ring of Chainsaw points, activates Woven Myriad - Convergence (+120% to Chainsaw Mode multipliers) and All Ends Here (+20% Havoc DMG and healing, 12 seconds).
Echo: Activate the Echo to deal additional Havoc DMG.
Resonance Skill • Eye of Unraveling: Stagnates the target, deals Havoc DMG and inflicts Unseen Snare (30s): each attack from a team member on the target generates 1 stack of Havoc Bane. Generates Ring of Chainsaw points.
Basic Attack I & II → Rending Lunge → Death Snip → Thread Withdrawn: Full combo that generates Ring of Chainsaw points. Death Snip restores the team's HP and its damage counts as Resonance Liberation (boosted by Woven Myriad - Convergence). Thread Withdrawn opens a successful Dodge window right after being cast.
Resonance Skill • Serrated Loop: Available when Ring of Chainsaw is full (100 pts). Stagnates and pulls targets, refreshes Unseen Snare and activates Chainsaw Mode. Chain directly into Normal Attack to cast Sawring - Blitz Stage 2.
Forte • Sawring - Blitz (I → II → III): 3-hit combo in Chainsaw Mode whose damage counts as Resonance Liberation. Each hit consumes Ring of Chainsaw points and increases the multiplier of the next Sawring - Eradication. Thanks to Woven Myriad - Convergence, each point consumed adds an additional +120% to that multiplier.
Forte • Sawring - Eradication: The finisher. Deals massive Havoc DMG (peak damage of the rotation thanks to Woven Myriad - Convergence) and grants a 30-second shield to the entire team. Deactivates Chainsaw Mode and ends Woven Myriad - Convergence.
Outro • Unraveling - Law Zero: Swap out to grant the entire team the Resonant Thread of Closure buff (20s): increases the max stacks of Negative Status and Electro Rage that can be applied by +3, and grants the Thread of Bane buff (ignores 18% of the target's DEF) on each Negative Status application.
Tip : Chisa is extremely flexible: her passives (Unseen Snare, Inescapable Fate, Thread of Bane) work even off-field, making quickswaps very rewarding. When playing without swaps, her rotation is very fast if you chain the Basic Attack combo right after Serrated Loop: maintain continuous pressure to prevent Chainsaw Fever from dropping to zero.

BEST TEAM COMPOSITIONS
Chisa WuWa best teamsGlacio Negative Status Team
Hiyuki has certain passives that require applying Glacio and/or Havoc Negative Status effects, and Chisa provides a massive boost here.
Team Aemeath
In Fusion Negative Status mode, Chisa pairs very well with Aemeath thanks to all the buffs she provides.
Team Cartethyia
Cartethyia has certain passives that require applying 6 Aero Negative Status effects, and Chisa allows increasing the cap from 3 to 6 while providing massive buffs.
Team Zani
This team is not very relevant because Rover allows extending the rotation under Zani's ultimate and Document, dealing more damage. That is why the DPR is not calculated for this team.

Then swap to your main DPS.
