Chasca Constellation Changes

The extra damage instance of Chasca's C2 and C4 are now considered Charged Attack damage, and they also now have elemental application (with no ICD).

HSR got their own chef, no need for me to hurry.
But really - nobody from the team has any interest in making PS for HSR, despite many people asking for it. In the near future we don't have any plans for HSR or any other games.

Follow up to that video. Found an issue that affected Clorinde. After fixing that issue gameplay finally has same 120k DPS against 2 targets like in sheet. This video has 2x 2.4M enemies, artifacts aren't changed.
The reason why we usually wait few weeks before doing such videos is to find all the issues in sheets and PS itself.

Chasca C6 Combo

If you just hold you get 4 CA6 + 2 C6 + CA4
Thanks to comments online I looked into one possible combo:

CA6 + C6 + CA4 + ...
This way you should be able to get 3 CA6 + 3 C6 + 2 CA4.

I think it might be possible. I myself couldn't get the last C6 to load in time. But if I sacrifice 1 bullet from one of CA4 - I can get that 3rd C6.
So we end up with this combo:

CA6 + C6 + CA4 + CA6 + C6 + CA3 + CA6 + C6
This way you get 3 CA6 + 3 C6 + CA4 + CA3.

Why? C6 bullets have additional 120 CDMG applied on them.
It's a bit hard to imagine any content that would require C6 Chasca to be on field for whole duration.

EDIT: after beta update and more testing it seems like more than 3 C6 procs is not possible

Preload

MiHoYo did A/B testing before on preload. Since 4.5 they did quite a lot of work trying to make it faster to download
This new test is 1/3 the size of the current preload.

For context sizes:
Full client - 69GB
New/changed files - 17GB
Pre-4.5 method - 7GB+
Usual method - 3.8GB
Test - 1.2GB

MiHoYo, mess with settings for a bit, you can get it below 800MB.

Mavuika Bugs

Obsidian Codex drops out during the rotation and comes back for the last hit. 140% CR gaming?

Mavuika Bugs

If you plan on using her with Chasca - assume around 0 E hits. Mavuika's hitboxes are perfectly fine.

Don't think this was posted, so here.

Chasca Changes

MiHoYo changed Chasca on release quite a lot.

First thing that was changed is bullet order. Now if you have 2 elements - 4th bullet is always anemo, 1 elements - 4th and 5th bullets are anemo. This isn't how it behaved in beta at all.

And then her targeting. For high ping players she went from "no issues at all" in beta to unusable in a lot of cases. If you have high ping and face against more than a single wave - you are losing out.

At high ping enemies take longer to spawn and Chasca needs enemies to charge bullets. You can stay on field even for 2 seconds with nothing to target just wasting time.

Sometimes that targeting picks up dead enemies (hello Yoimiya from 2.0) and your shots will be allocated to them. In some cases it means just wasted shots, while in others she won't fire automatically.

And now she also has wallhacks. You can target enemies through objects. For example - Narwhal.

Mavuika

Nightsoul points consumed by her skill also count towards the stacks required for her burst.

Image depicts amount of stacks team with only Mavuika and Xilonen will have (~180).

Also think it's best to mention that C6 has no Pyro application! Damage is Pyro, but it doesn't apply anything.

Mavuika Fix

Mavuika's vertical range has been fixed. She now works with characters like Chasca.
