Belorta: Pumpkin Witch Build Guide – Skills, Cube, Gear & Best Teams

VioletViolet

The recommended Belorta: Pumpkin Witch build for most players is 7/4/7 skills, the Resilience Cube, and a Rocket Launcher Collection Item. Avoid spending heavily on Overload rerolls unless she is supporting one of your main raid teams.

Belorta is a specialized Water-code Burst II Supporter who strengthens the ally positioned directly to her right. Her value comes from targeted ATK and Sustained Damage buffs rather than personal damage. Place her in slots 1–4, position your main Sustained Damage dealer immediately to her right, and bring another Burst II unit to cover her 40-second cooldown.

🎃.pngThe official October 8 update introduced Belorta: Pumpkin Witch as an SSR Water-code Supporter equipped with the Candy Shot Rocket Launcher. Her Special Recruit runs from October 8 to October 28, 2026. She is scheduled to enter several permanent recruitment pools after the banner ends.

属性.pngBelorta is not a universal buffer. Most of her offensive effects apply to only one teammate—the unit immediately to her right.

This restriction makes formation order part of her build. If Belorta occupies slot 5, there is no character to her right, so the targeted portion of her kit loses its value. She should normally occupy slots 1–4, with the team’s primary Sustained Damage dealer in the following slot.

Her 40-second Burst cooldown also means she cannot independently maintain a standard Burst rotation. A second Burst II character is generally required unless Belorta is being used without activating her Burst.

How Belorta’s Right-Side Buff Mechanic Works

Assume the squad is displayed from slot 1 to slot 5:

Slot 1Slot 2Slot 3Slot 4Slot 5
Burst IBelortaMain DPSSecond Burst IIFlexible DPS

In this example, Belorta’s targeted buffs go to the character in slot 3.

The game does not automatically redirect those effects to the strongest attacker. They are determined by formation position. A powerful team can therefore perform poorly if the intended carry is two slots away from Belorta.

Before entering a boss battle:

  1. Place Belorta somewhere between slots 1 and 4.
  2. Put the intended Sustained Damage dealer directly to her right.
  3. Check that another Burst II unit can cover the alternate rotation.
  4. Confirm that the selected DPS benefits from Sustained Damage instead of only ordinary damage bonuses.

Belorta: Pumpkin Witch Skill Breakdown

The following percentages are based on Level 10 skills. Lower skill levels provide reduced values.

Skill 1 – Playful Little Witch

When the squad enters Full Burst, Belorta gains two temporary effects:

Skill 1.png

The important detail is that Skill 1 activates when the team enters Full Burst. Belorta does not necessarily need to use her own Burst Skill to trigger this part of her kit. This allows her to function as an off-Burst buffer in teams that already have another Burst II rotation.

Skill 2 – Trick or Treat!

Belorta’s Full Charge attacks activate two different effects:

Skill 2.png

This skill rewards deliberate Full Charge attacks. Rapid, uncharged Rocket Launcher shots can help generate Burst energy, but they do not maintain her Sustained Damage buff.

During an important damage window, prioritize Full Charge hits so the carry receives the Skill 2 bonus.

Burst Skill – Happy Halloween!

Belorta’s Burst applies the following effects to the ally directly to her right:

Burst Skill.png

These effects can overlap with the buffs from Skills 1 and 2, creating a strong single-target support window. The tradeoff is the Burst’s 40-second cooldown, which prevents Belorta from serving as the team’s only Burst II unit in a normal rotation.

Belorta: Pumpkin Witch Skill Priority

Current build recommendations differ because Belorta can be used either as an active Burst support or as an off-Burst buffer. A single skill target does not suit every formation. Post-release guides generally recommend either an efficient 7/4/7 stopping point or a more expensive 7/7/10 setup for dedicated teams.

Investment levelSkill 1 / Skill 2 / BurstBest use
Early build2004/4/4Testing her teams without committing many manuals
Efficient build2007/4/7General boss and raid support
High investment2007/7/10Dedicated Sustained Damage team
Off-Burst setupPrioritize Skill 1, then Skill 2Another Burst II is used every rotation

For most players, 7/4/7 is the sensible target. It improves her main ATK buffs while limiting investment in Skill 2.

Raise her toward 7/7/10 only when she consistently supports one of your strongest raid carries. Skill 2 becomes more valuable when Belorta regularly lands Full Charge attacks and the supported DPS gains significant value from Sustained Damage.

Best Harmony Cube for Belorta: Pumpkin Witch

Resilience Cube

The Resilience Cube is the safest general recommendation. Belorta’s Rocket Launcher has a two-second reload, so additional reload speed reduces downtime and makes it easier to maintain Full Charge attacks for Skill 2.

It also helps when using quick shots to generate Burst energy between important damage windows.

Alternative Cube Options

Belorta is a support character, so Cube levels should normally go to your main damage dealers first. An alternative Cube may work for a specific boss, but it rarely changes her main job: buffing the character immediately to her right.

Best Overload Gear and Collection Item

Budget Build

Belorta performs her main function without perfect Overload equipment. For an efficient build:

  • Equip upgraded manufacturer gear when available.
  • Avoid repeatedly rerolling effects.
  • Use a Rocket Launcher Collection Item.
  • Consider a purple/SR Rocket Launcher Doll around Level 5 as an initial stopping point.
  • Invest Custom Modules in your primary DPS before optimizing Belorta.

Best Belorta: Pumpkin Witch Teams

Belorta performs best with characters whose damage is classified as Sustained Damage. The following are example post-release compositions rather than mandatory teams.

Water Sustained Damage Team

PositionCharacter
1Liter
2Belorta: Pumpkin Witch
3Mihara: Bonding Chain
4Flora
5Raven

Mihara stands directly to Belorta’s right and receives her targeted buffs.

One possible rotation is:

  • First Full Burst: Liter → Belorta → Mihara
  • Second Full Burst: Liter → Flora → Raven
  • Flora covers the alternate Burst II window while Belorta’s Burst is unavailable.

Bready Carry Team

PositionCharacter
1Liter
2Belorta: Pumpkin Witch
3Bready
4Flora
5Mihara: Bonding Chain

This formation places Bready directly to Belorta’s right. Belorta concentrates her ATK and Sustained Damage bonuses on Bready, while Flora helps maintain the Burst rotation.

Other potential partners include Diesel: Winter Sweets and Sakura: Bloom in Summer. The exact lineup should still be adjusted for the boss element, survivability requirements and available Burst cooldown reduction.

Positioning and Rotation Tips

Belorta Pumpkin Witch.webp

  • Never place Belorta in slot 5.
  • Put the intended carry in the next slot to her right.
  • Bring a second Burst II character for a regular 20-second rotation.
  • Use Full Charge attacks when maintaining Skill 2 matters.
  • Do not confuse quick-shot Burst generation with Full Charge skill activation.
  • Time Belorta’s Burst around the carry’s strongest damage window.
  • Use an off-Burst setup when Skill 1 and Skill 2 provide enough value without activating Happy Halloween.
  • Check the formation again after changing a team preset.
  • Belorta is strongest in single-target boss content, where her concentrated buffs remain on one carry for a controlled damage window. She is less convenient in general campaign teams that need healing, defensive support or team-wide buffs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Harmony Cube is best for Belorta?

The Resilience Cube is the best general option because it reduces reload downtime. Bastion can help with ammunition uptime, while Destruction is situational against multi-part bosses.


What Overload stats does Belorta need?

ATK is the priority for a high-investment build. Max Ammo and Charge Speed are secondary options. Budget players should avoid expensive rerolls and invest in their main DPS first.


Does Belorta need another Burst II character?

Usually, yes. Her Burst has a 40-second cooldown, so another Burst II unit is needed to maintain a normal rotation. She can also operate as an off-Burst buffer in certain teams.
