I want to clarify that it's not about if C1 or C2 is needed to make her good. I think she's quite strong at C0. The issue I have is that, to me, C1 can *feel* like a solid constellation at first. It's not until you really look into her kit and/or C2 to understand that you're still not getting that team flexibility while maxing the passive until C2, but it's easily mistaken that C1 does this itself (which it should imo). At C1 you can decide between guaranteed conversion OR 65% damage buff if you want to take same element units.

Many recent C1s are lackluster, with C2 being the good one. I also have an issue with that, but it's even worse in this case, because it's not as obvious. If you decide to get C1 before looking more deeply into her (like I almost did) that feels like a slap in the face... Sure, you can blame me/others for not diving deeper in the first place, but many just check C1 to see if they want it or not before continuing on their summons.

Chasca is a lot of fun and feels pretty strong at C0 and I don't mind the team restrictions much since I already have a lot of built characters, so more than enough options... but I didn't realize this problem with her C1, so thank you for pointing it out. I wasn't gonna roll for C1 anway, but it's still good to know.

[Scared]

Honestly don’t know why we’re so surprised by the limited team comps, I’m a kinich/emilie main brother.

[nulleins]

something that bothers me too with newer characters is they usually have really nice signature weapon designs, but their animations don't even show the weapon?? as someone who sometimes just pulls for the ultimate drip i at least want to flex my weapons in co-op 😂 but ig less incentive to unnecessarily spend more pulls which is always good

[vsss]

6:48 this weapon is a Chasca weapon. She goes into ''aiming mode'' on her E hold

[nurventilatoren]

I got her once and her Signature Weapon and I love her gameplay so much that I've already forgotten what a kilometer is.

[Weeb]

I agree that the c1 feels unfinished, but i personally dont care as i got her just to fly around.

[Meese]

Oh shit i didnt even realize that's how her cons work. That is.... horrible lol. This feels like the most aggressive they've ever gotten with early cons.

[t-t]

qucusaurs have the same problem they fly, ascend so slow and weirdly but consume phlogiston so fast i hate them, i like iktomosaurs the most out of all saurians

[DegenWeeb]

I have no problem with restrictive teams or a character's c1 being a qol fix, but half-assing a c1 or locking qol behind c2+ is kind of pushing it when it comes to limited time characters. It only hurts the casual/low spenders(who don't money to throw away), which makes up the larger portion of your playerbase. This obviously has no effect on the whales since they're usually just gonna pull for constellation regardless.

And before I get the "she's still really good at c0" argument, that's not the point. The point is that Hoyo is starting to get more predatory with how they're designing/implementing character constellations. It feels like they're testing how much they can get away with when it involves qol constellations.

She blessed me with c1 in like 5 pity. An extra conversion and even better movement, i love her

[bongobiggoose]

I accidentally got Chasca when I was pulling for Sucrose because I didn't have her, but I accidentally got her early. After that I thought I should get Ororon, but I got C1 Chasca early AGAIN. I made the thing people didn't want in videos come true

[szentekkel]

"I went straight to the quest objective shining in front of me, oh no quest started"

9:20 - Moga chanelling their inner Venti like: Wouldn't gliding be faster?

[ItsMe-qmfm]

I’m not understanding the disappointment with limited elements that work well with her. She’s an anemo DPS that does swirl damage. You can’t swirl geo, dendro, and anemo. Wanderer’s buff works the same way and Xiolen (spelling?) elemental buffs only work with elements that geo has the crystallize reaction with so she doesn’t give an anemo or dendro buff.

[mikoman]

i think what moga is saying is that she IS a good unit, but the fact that her c1 and c2 is needed for her kit to feel cohesive feels extra slimey from hoyoverse. they could have easily tacked c2 onto c1, but they want more money so they didnt do that.

[maninanikittycat]

My issue with Chasca is her half and half pants

[ulrikruby]

While not getting the damage buff is annoying, it’s not like you are locked in rainbow teams. Adding someone like Xianling can result in a team with better AOE but worse single target, so it’s still very useable if you want. This is the same scenario as C0 Neauvilette being used with Furina, or Lyney being used with Furina & Xilonen/Kazuha. Sometimes units can add more that a passive stack.
The only unit who is truly restricted by their passive would be Nilou, since without her passive there are just other better options for bloom teams.

[DayDay]

i have her c2r1 and i can absolutely agree. C1 is a nice constellation to have cause of the 2nd bullet conversion and added 33% but C2 makes her numbingly strong and running her with xilonen, benny, and furina makes me feel like im running a Anemo Neuve. I just hate that to get her there took me 400 pulls

[Necro-xyej]

pretty easy explanation: they wanna sell C1 & C2 :)

shit's annoying

also i can't be the only one that thinks it's weird that they are clearly putting issues on characters just to sell constellations right? i think if it was a intended flaw in the character i think these problems wouldn't be getting fixed at C1 or C2, the more theoretically accessible ones, and therefore, the ones that are more likely to get people that don't normally spend in gacha to fork over money

sure, you can still play the characters that have this with C0 and most of them would do fine, but it still feels weird
