The input order once the team is set up. N is a Normal Attack, C a Charged Attack, E the Elemental Skill, Q the Burst.

Easy Combos

On-field: E N5Q N5D N5D N2C N5 (Footage shown in this combo button)Hybrid: Q E N5C N5D N5D N2C N5

This is the recommended minimum baseline to use if playing Skirk. These combos still use cancels, but only on her N5, for which they are easily executed. The singular N2 used is followed by her Charged Attack to absorb Void Rifts, forgoing the need to cancel it.

223 and 225

223: N1 → N2 → Dash → N1 → N2 → Dash→ N1 → N2 → N3 → Walk225: N1 → N2 → Dash → N1 → N2 → Dash→ N1 → N2 → N3 → N4 → N5 → Dash

Since Skirk does not rely on precise reaction timings, her combos are optimized purely based on maximizing the total multiplier on her attacks delivered during her Seven-Phase Flash state. Also, as the input times on her combos can vary, players may find more success by repeating a basic set of attacks within the general framework of her combos.
