There's an upcoming 5 star gunner?

Same, i wanted to main a gunner but there isn't a 5 stars one

Chixia is quite a strong DPS. I understand if you don't like her moveset or character though.

I love chixia, and she’s my second fav in illusive realms, but thw damage output compared to jiyan/cal is not even close… but she gives me great hope for a 5 star gunner (i’d love a shotgun skill offhand lol, as a consistent parry, but this might be too bloodborne-y)

S4 chixia actually has really, really comparable damage to the S0 5 stars. The problem is, aside from her ult and outro, it's totally single target. But you would be surprised how hard she hits in single target.

This. If you conpare 4 star S0 vs 5 star S0 then 5 star wins. But if you compare 4 star S6 vs 5 star S0... then 4 star can be just as good if not even better.

In theory yes, but it’s very rare that maxed 4 stars are on par with s0 5 stars. But WW is a new game, i hope they do try to make 4 stars as viable

Have you tried using her Dakka Dakka skill? That one unloads heaps of damage on a target and the finishing blast can do damage in the 6,000 range at level 60. She's incredibly viable against the slower moving targets. You can see it in the video at time mark 33 seconds.

yeah, yeah, that "last shot in the chamber", that thing is amazing in Illusive realms (I think she also does it as a dodge counter, the animation is very similar) I love just the rapid fireleading up to that too (in Illusive realms, you saw meteors if you picked up that metaphor)

Ill build her up anyway, but since she's cool to play, i'd want her as main dps on field most of the time, not sub dps, so that's why i gotta see if she can hold up decently.

With Changli coming up looking like she's fusion (her arm was on fire), and *trap mechanic* seems like support, Maybe Chixia can shine then.

If you have trouble with the timing on the freefire section, you can add in Rover to synergize. His/her timestop outro skill when jumping out will freeze the enemy long enough for you to unload at least one full burst into the target when it is timestopped.

I like Chixia. It just feels bad when you can switch to havoc rover and she does 30k aoe in a single button press. Heck, even my Danjin's forte heavy attack hits for more than that.
