Ever since the release of Natlan inGenshin Impact, players have come across multiple characters who have played a crucial role in preventing the impending disaster surrounding the fire nation. A few of those characters have also been released as playable units and have made a significant impact on the overall meta of the game.
Chasca, the Anemo Bow user, was added in version 5.2 as part of the playable characters from Natlan. Here’s a detailed build guide for the unit if you decide to pull for her and are looking to deal the highest possible damage.
Best Chasca Builds
Chasca is an amazing unit that can deal a lot of damage. However,there are a few aspects of her kit that need to be discussed before jumping into the builds:
The position of Chasca in the team will depend on how you use her. If she’s the main DPS, Chasca will take position 1, but if you use her as a driver, you can include a different damage dealer. Once you have decided on the playstyle, here are the builds you can follow to meet the requirements:
Weapons
Astral Vulture’s Crimson Plumage, Aqua Simulacra, Chain Breaker
While there are multiple ways to use Chasca, building her as a main DPS will be the most valuable. The mostimportant part of her kit is the Elemental Skill where you can easily trigger all kinds of Reactionswithout the need to swap units. Additionally,building her as a DPS increases the damage of her Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst, which increases her viability significantly.
Obsidian Codex is the best artifactfor her as alongside themassive Nightsoul Bonus, the 40 percent Crit Rate from the four-piece setwill make it easy to build her. Additionally, if you go for Chasca’s 5-star signature weapon, Astral Vulture’s Crimson Plumage, you’ll receive a lot of Crit DMG, significantly increasing Chasca’s damage output.
If you have Yelan’s 5-star signature weapon, the Aqua Simulacra, that is a good choice, as you receive a lot of Crit DMG and raw ATK power. Finally, you can also use the Chain Breaker 4-star craftable Bow from Natlan, as it provides massive ATK boosts, which is the second-best choice after Crit stats. Additionally, this weapon also provides Elemental Mastery from its passive, which provides a significant boost in damage.
Elegy of the End, Chain Breaker
While Chasca primarily functions as a DPS,you may use her Elemental Skill to Swirl elements. This can reduce the enemy’s resistance and thereby increase the damage for the other units in the team.
TheViridescent Venerer Artifact set is the best for this as it reduces the enemy’s resistance by 40 percentand provides a 60 percent boost to Swirl DMG. You’ll need to go for Elemental Mastery main stat on the Goblet, Sands, and Circlet, along with Crit and ATK on the substats.
Elegy of the End will be the best weapon in this case since Chasca gains a lot of Elemental Mastery and Energy Recharge,which synergizes well with this particular build. Chain Breaker also works quite well with this build since you receive a lot of Elemental Mastery alongside the ATK stats from the weapon’s passive.
While the situational build is fine, it’s recommended you go for the main DPS build, as otherwise, you’ll miss out on a lot of Chasca’s potential as a unit.
Chasca Artifact Priority
Theartifact stats for Chasca will depend on how you want to build her, either as a main DPS or an Anemo Driver. Here’s a rundown of what you should focus on when farming for the artifacts:
Crit Rate > Crit DMG > Energy Recharge
Chasca Talent Overview and Priority
Chasca is a pretty simple unit, butthere are a few aspects of her kit that you should know for optimal usage. Here’s everything you need to know about her gameplay:
Chasca can only load Pyro, Electro, Hydro, and Cryo in her bullets. She doesn’t have any affinity for Dendro or Geo.
When it comes to priority, you should level up in the following order:Elemental Skill > Elemental Burst > Normal Attack. The charged bullets from the Elemental Skill deal the most damage, so that should be your focus. Elemental Burst will be needed when fighting difficult enemies, though the Normal Attack isn’t necessary, and you can skip it or leave it at level 6.
