Get ready for some exciting new content in Genshin Impact 5.2! A brand new character, Chasca, is about to be released, but there are some interesting new details to check out about this 5-star Anemo character!
Chasca's Disappointing Ability
New leaks from Watson Leaks, shared on Reddit and marked as "Reliable", suggest that Chasca might have a pretty significant limitation. While early leaks had many excited about her ability to fly and attack enemies while airborne (similar to Wanderer), this latest info might cause some concern.
Limited Flight Mechanics
It appears that Chasca's flight, described as a hover similar to Neuvillette or Arlecchino, won't work over water. This means that a key gameplay mechanic will have some really interesting limitations, preventing Chasca players from having full exploration capabilities across Teyvat. While Neuvillette and Arlecchino can easily hover over water, Chasca seemingly can't! This is considered to be somewhat of an outdated nerf (a reduction in a character's abilities). Considering that her mobility is supposed to be a strength!
Chasca's Leaked Flight Limitations in Genshin Impact
Many were hoping that Chasca's flying would be a significant upgrade compared to what's available. Some thought it would be like Wanderer's flight! It seems to be the case, some leaks even suggest that Chasca can improve in the air, becoming almost identical to Wanderer. However, these restrictions to flying may drastically cut down on Chasca's usefulness. Preventing full traversal, even with her superior Anemo abilities.
Potential for Change
It is important to keep in mind that all leaks need to be treated cautiously! The information could be incorrect, unfinished, or entirely subject to change before the official release of Genshin Impact 5.2. There's a really good chance that the Chasca flight limitation will be tweaked. It's worth noting that Natlan's map in the Genshin Impact world is being heavily developed! Meaning there might be plenty more hidden that haven't even come to light.
Chasca as a DPS Character
Despite concerns about her flight mechanics, Chasca may still end up being really great as a DPS (Damage Per Second) character. The current leaks seem to say that she can be a reliable and consistent attacker. This would likely please the more focused Genshin Impact fans.
Conclusion
It seems Chasca will be added into Genshin Impact 5.2 soon! Leaks for Chasca seem interesting for many Genshin Impact players, the flying mechanic seems a bit questionable!
Fans have to be prepared. This might mean that she doesn't deliver fully! However, HoYoverse may surprise the gaming community. It may mean it has great potential despite its flight limitation, adding her as a strong DPS character! Only time will tell and if anything else shows up. This certainly sets up a really exciting Genshin Impact 5.2 for its most passionate fans and we will need to wait to learn more as development and beta testing progresses, before final changes!
