Chasca is an upcoming 5-star Anemo character from the region of war, Natlan. After the release of two 5-star DPS carries, Mualani and Kinich, and a top-tier support, Xilonen, HoYoverse is set to bless fans with another incredible Anemo DPS. While there is no shortage of Anemo DPS characters, with Wanderer and Xiao being fan favorites, Chasca brings exceptional flying and maneuvering skills, along with her ability to deal various types of elemental damage.
If you’re planning to pull for Chasca in Genshin Impact, you’ll also need to prepare an excellent weapon for her. Chasca is a bow-wielding Anemo character. Here are the best weapons for her:
Best 5-star Bows for Chasca
These are the best 5-star bows for Chasca in Genshin Impact:
1) Astral Vulture’s Crimson Plumage
The best weapon for Chasca is her signature bow, Astral Vulture’s Crimson Plumage. This 5-star bow is tailor-made for her, offering a massive 66.2% Crit DMG increase along with a high base attack of 608. Its passive effect buffs Chasca’s attack whenever she triggers a swirl reaction, which she will do frequently.
Additionally, it increases her charged attack and elemental burst damage when characters from different elements are in the party. However, this weapon is only available through limited-time events, alongside Chasca’s character banner.
2) The First Great Magic
Lyney’s signature weapon, The First Great Magic, is another great option for Chasca. Like her signature bow, it provides a base attack of 608 and 66.2% Crit DMG. Its passive effect boosts charged attack damage, which is Chasca’s main source of damage, and grants additional attack and movement speed buffs when you have teammates with different element types.
3) Skyward Harp
While Skyward Harp may not be the absolute best weapon for Chasca, many players will have access to it as a standard weapon. It offers the highest base attack in the game at 676 and comes with a 22.1% Crit Rate. Crit Rate isn’t essential for Chasca if you’re using the Obsidian Codex artifact set. However, combining the 40% Crit Rate from the 4-piece Obsidian Codex, 22.1% Crit Rate from the weapon, and Chasca’s 24.2% base Crit Rate at level 80 ascension gives you 86.3% Crit Rate to work with. You can then focus artifact sub-stats on Energy Recharge, ATK%, and Crit DMG, while ignoring Crit Rate.
Best 4-star Bows for Chasca
With the 5-star bows covered, here are the best 4-star bows for Chasca, which are more accessible for most players.
1) Flower-Wreathed Feathers
Flower-Wreathed Feathers is a 4-star bow available on the gacha weapon banner. Since it’s a gacha bow, there is no guaranteed way to obtain it. However, if you decide to pull on the weapon banner and fail to get Chasca’s signature bow, you might end up with this one. It has a base attack of 510 and an additional 41.3% ATK bonus. It also reduces gliding stamina consumption and increases charged attack damage when aiming, which suits Chasca’s playstyle.
2) Hamayumi
Hamayumi is the strongest free-to-play (F2P) weapon for Chasca. At weapon refinement rank 5, Hamayumi boosts normal attacks by 32% and charged attacks by 24%. If you haven’t had luck with the gacha system, Hamayumi could be your best choice for Chasca.
3) The Viridescent Hunt
Players who purchase the Battle Pass may have access to The Viridescent Hunt, a 4-star bow. It provides a base attack of 510 and a Crit Rate of 27.6%. While it may not be the ideal choice for Chasca if you’re using the Obsidian Codex artifact set, it can still be effective with other artifact sets. The bow’s passive effect creates a cyclone for crowd control, which can be helpful since Chasca’s charged attacks tend to scatter small groups of enemies.
4) Scion of the Blazing Sun
Scion of the Blazing Sun is another Battle Pass 4-star bow that can work well for Chasca. It has a base attack of 565 and a Crit Rate of 18.4%. Its passive effect debuffs enemies hit by charged attacks, causing them to take increased charged attack damage.
Chasca’s Weapon for Beginners
If you’re new to Genshin Impact and Chasca is one of your first 5-star characters, you might not have access to good 4-star or 5-star bows. Fortunately, there’s a 3-star bow that works well for any DPS bow character: Slingshot.
Slingshot is a 3-star bow with a high 31.2% Crit Rate but a lower base attack of 354. At refinement rank 5, this weapon increases damage by a whopping 60% when a normal or charged attack hits an enemy within 0.3 seconds of being fired. Since Chasca’s charged attacks explode as soon as they are fired, you’ll consistently benefit from this damage bonus.
