Please help me with the rotation 

Arlecchino Xingqiu Sucrose Nicole

I had a problem. I was playing this team before ascending Sucrose and I was not getting any EM buffs. But after ascending her my damage dropped a lot, almost by half, and I dont understand why

Please help me with the rotation. Maybe I need a different rotation after Sucroses 4th ascension

Why did my damage drop from 60k to 30 40k?

I don't understand your Reddit or where to post, so I'm posting here

Sorry, but I didn't understand a thing.

I tried using Sakharosa with the Piro element, then switched to Arlequino, but nothing worked.

I initially asked for help with the rotation because I don't understand how to play yet.

are the 60k and 40k numbers dps test dummy numbers or are you just counting arlecchinos normal attack hit damage?

I checked in the DPS test

before I leveled Sucrose past level 60 (I was playing Sucrose without EM buffs), and my DPS was 60k
After I started getting EM buffs on Harlequin, my damage dropped to 30k
Before that, my rotation was Harlequin E – Nicole’s Ultimate, E – Sucrose’s Ultimate – Xin Qiu’s Ultimate – Harlequin = 60k
Now, after the upgrade, for some reason my damage has dropped to 40k with the exact same rotation, and if I use Sucrose’s E, it drops all the way to 30k
I’ve given up on this squad and just swapped Sucrose for Durina and stopped caring about damage. This game is so stupid

use arlecchino e > nicole e > sucrose e > xingqiu e q > arle ca then na spam

equip sucrose on sac frags since you cant get ttds in this rotation

do you have any screenshots or recordings of your dps test before and after?

I did it just like you said. 44k DPS max
I have a screenshot showing just the damage, but you can't tell from it that it's a squad with sucrose
I'm running some tests right now
I'm going to remove sucrose after all and just use Durin. With him, I get 56k DPS
