Chasca is a main-DPS Anemo character released during the Natlan Archon Quest in Genshin Impact. Her Elemental Skill is the core of her kit, firing elemental bullets that deal damage based on whichever elements your party members bring. That unique mechanic makes her team-building more deliberate than most DPS characters, and it rewards players who stack multiple different elements around her. She also doubles as one of the best mobility options in the game, thanks to her aerial movement during the Skill animation.
What are the best artifact sets for Chasca?
Obsidian Codex is the clear top choice, and it was designed with Natlan characters like Chasca in mind. The 2-piece bonus grants 15% increased damage while the equipped character is in Nightsoul's Blessing on the field. The 4-piece effect then pushes it further: every time she consumes 1 Nightsoul point, her CRIT Rate jumps by 40% for 6 seconds, with a 1-second internal cooldown. That CRIT Rate window lines up well with her Skill rotations, so you will consistently hit those critical thresholds without needing to stack as much CRIT Rate on your substats.
If you do not have a well-rolled Obsidian Codex set yet, Marechaussee Hunter is a workable alternative. Its 2-piece gives 15% Normal and Charged Attack DMG, and the 4-piece stacks CRIT Rate by 12% per stack (up to 3 stacks) whenever your HP changes. Chasca does not naturally fluctuate HP, so you will need a character like Furina on the team to trigger those stacks consistently.

What stats should you prioritize on Chasca's artifacts?
Chasca's main stats are straightforward:
- Sands: ATK%
- Goblet: ATK%
- Circlet: CRIT DMG or CRIT Rate (depending on your weapon and substat balance)
For substats, target in this order:
- CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG
- ATK%
- Elemental Mastery
The reason ATK% appears on both Sands and Goblet rather than an Anemo DMG Goblet is that Chasca's Skill bullets deal damage based on the corresponding element of your party members, not purely Anemo. ATK% scaling applies more broadly across those hits.
info
Since Obsidian Codex already gives you a large CRIT Rate bonus during Skill use, you can afford to lean more heavily into CRIT DMG on your Circlet and substats without losing consistency.

What are the best weapons for Chasca?
5-star weapon options
Astral Vulture's Crimson Plumage is Chasca's signature bow and the best weapon for her by a clear margin. At Refinement 1 and level 90, it carries a 66.2% CRIT DMG secondary stat. Its passive increases ATK by 24% for 12 seconds after triggering a Swirl reaction. On top of that, when at least 2 party members are of a different element than Chasca, her Charged Attack DMG increases by 48% and Elemental Burst DMG increases by 24%. Given that her best teams naturally run multiple off-element characters, both conditions are trivial to meet.
If you do not have the signature, Aqua Simulacra works as a placeholder. It has the highest CRIT DMG secondary stat in the game at 88.2% (at level 90, Refinement 1), and its passive grants a flat 20% DMG increase when enemies are nearby. The HP bonus from the passive is wasted on Chasca, but the raw CRIT DMG and the damage increase still make it a strong option. As noted by community testing documented across multiple Genshin Impact build resources, most high CRIT DMG bows perform similarly on Chasca outside of her signature, so use whatever you have.
F2P and 4-star weapon options
All three weapon effects listed above are at Refinement 5 and level 90, which is achievable since 4-star bows are far easier to obtain in multiples. Chain Breaker is particularly interesting because Chasca's best teams already include characters from Natlan or different elements by design, so its passive activates without any extra effort.
warning
Do not run Hamayumi if you plan to use Chasca's Burst frequently. The weapon's bonus doubles only at full Energy, so spending your Burst resets the passive and costs you the damage window.
What are the best teams for Chasca?
Chasca's Elemental Skill fires bullets that match the elements of your party members. The more non-Anemo elements you bring, the more varied and powerful those bullets become. This means her team-building is less about finding a support and more about covering the right elements.
Premium team compositions
The Furina + Bennett core appears in two of the three premium compositions for good reason. Furina provides HP fluctuation that activates Marechaussee Hunter stacks if you use that artifact set, and her Burst multiplies team damage significantly. Bennett covers healing and provides a strong ATK buff through his Burst. Mavuika brings Pyro application and the Natlan team synergy that boosts Nightsoul-related mechanics. Xilonen provides Shred and Geo Resonance utility in the third composition.
Budget and 4-star team compositions
The budget teams cover Hydro, Pyro, Cryo, and Electro elements across the party, giving Chasca's Skill bullets multiple element types to fire. Fischl is an excellent pick here because she provides off-field Electro application without needing to be on the field, letting Chasca stay active. Xingqiu does the same for Hydro.
Chasca Constellation overview
Chasca functions well at C0, and her Constellations are not required to make her work in most content. That said, higher Constellations do increase her ceiling. Based on available information from the sources, specific Constellation effects are not fully detailed here, but the general consensus across Genshin Impact build communities is that C0 Chasca with her signature weapon already clears most endgame content without issue.
info
If you are pulling on Chasca's banner, stopping at C0 and saving for her signature weapon will generally give you more damage than pulling for Constellations without the weapon.
