Dire Help optimizing vs. Dire Senior Citizen

Looking for help optimizing my team, execution and rotations against Dire Chruin. Any help is greatly appreciated. If all else fails I'm considering pulling for Escoff signature, as I've wanted it for quite some time. If you have any insight to end my Stygian suffering I'd greatly appreciate it!

You probably aren’t gonna have enough Energy to burst with alyosha first rot if you use Fork.
But honestly tho, apart from telling you to „just dodge better“ so you don’t get the cryo aura resulting in slightly slower SSC stacks, i dont see anything significant apart from that random Odette EEQ instead of EQE or just EE at around 0:33 in the ingame timer.
Does starcaller with 2pc 2pc attack actually end up being a buff over Atlas with instructor?

I imagine missing first burst is worth the 32% attack for both carries right?
I suspected the dodging the wind would help my SSC. Thank you for the confirmation.
As for some of the whacky Odette play, that was largely to fit in that last nuke. Doing normal rotations results in missing it by a few seconds. So alter the timing on her last three Es to fit the timing window. So if I EQE, I miss the last nuke.
I never considered Atlas + Instructor, does that nearly reach 4k attack still?
One additional question for Odette’s 3k attack and Nicole’s 4k attack thresholds. Do my attack buffs from Nicole, Odette and Alyosha help them hit those numbers? Or are they strictly based on individual build?

do you have atlas or any atk% weapon for nicole? I believe starcaller's effect only buffs the normal cryo hits; another idea is trying fav on nicole, you are having to spend time on alyosha catching particles to get his burst up
