A disappointing ability in Chasca’s gameplay kit forGenshin Impact5.2 has leaked, indicating that one of her key features may not work as originally speculated. Chasca is confirmed to be one of the new playable characters arriving in HoYoverse’s action RPG with the next major update alongside Ororon. Her dedicated banner will likely run alongside several older rerun characters, as hinted at by theleakedGenshin Impact5.2 character banners, which include a long-expected rerun of Albedo. Chasca is an Anemo character, rumored to have a 5-star rarity.

Players have already met Chasca as an NPC in the main Archon Quests back in Version 5.0, the first of the Natlan patches. She plays an important role in the campaign, but in Version 5.2, players will be able to pull for her in the gacha banners and, if successful, use her in combat and exploration across the available Teyvat map. SeveralChasca leaks inGenshin Impacthave already detailed a portion of her gameplay kit, such as her ability to fly and attack enemies mid-flight. Now, a new leak about Chasca has emerged, but it is rather concerning.

Chasca’s Leaked Flight In Genshin Impact 5.2 May Be More Limited Than Expected

Rumors Say The New Character Cannot Move Over Water

The flight Chasca uses is rumored to be a hovering stance, somewhat similar to that of Neuvillette or Arlecchino. A new piece of information provided by the leaker known as Watson Leaks mentions thatChasca’s hover will not function above bodies of water. The leak was shared in a post tagged as “Reliable” onReddit. While Neuvillette and Arlecchino can effectively traverse over water while in their special hovering states, it seems like Chasca’s flight mechanic may be more limited and will not allow players to explore all instances ofGenshin Impact.

Chasca’s flight has been compared to the flight in Wanderer’s kit, but the comparison drawn with Neuvillette and Arlecchino seems to indicate it may be simpler than the already established 5-star Anemo character.

Chasca’s Leaked Flight Limitations In Genshin Impact Seem Like A Waste

The Character Is Designed To Have Increased Mobility

With the initial leaks about Chasca, there was some expectation that her flight would be an improved version of that presented by Wanderer – in fact, the current leaks even state that she can gain height during her flight, much like the Hat Guy. However,if she cannot traverse over water, her exploration mechanics may be severely limitedin comparison to the expectations that were created based on prior leaks. Not being able to fly over water seems like an outdated nerf to a character designed to have improved mobility inGenshin Impact.

I’m Convinced Genshin Impact’s New Natlan Map Leak Is Hiding Its Most Important Area

New areas in Natlan’s map in Genshin Impact have been leaked and one of them may be hiding the most important lore-related zone so far.

As always, these leaks should be considered with caution. The information provided may be incorrect, incomplete, or simply subject to changes. The character will likely undergo changes as the beta tests progress, so there is a chance she may actually fly over water once she is officially released. Despite the disappointing ability leak, the other rumors show that she may be a worthwhile DPS character inGenshin Impactthanks to how consistently and constantly she can attack opponents.
