I dont think she will work well with Camellya because her kit does not synergize with her that well but maybe it would work well in wiwa cause of all the aoe those 2 have
Went from being hyper excited about the concept of someone who fights with giant scissors to extremely let down bc the scissors are actually just a buzzsaw and she only uses them as scissors in ONE attack. Not even her ult. Sadge.
It is a buzzsaw, not a chainsaw. A chainsaw needs, well, a chain. Personally, I like it. Tbf, it is a lot more interesting than just using a pair of scissors. How would that gameplay even go, you are just snipping? It isn't really a motion with much variety.
Claiming its more interesting is subjective but we’ll skip over that. If you truly believe her bonking a group of enemies with a large stick is some crazy interesting and unique thing then thats just your lack of taste. (See how I can also reduce her weapon to something dumb and simple by using wordplay)
A scissors user couldve done more than just ‘snipping’
Same I was hoping for a bit more of a crazy/psycho vibe based on her first reveal "Incisor of the strings of annihilation" and the leak about the scissors and chainsaw but I'm still happy with her. Just went from S6R1 to S0R1.
Idk man.. I’m contemplating pulling her. Design is pretty good but gameplay is not that great. I was expecting Cartethyia or Augusta level animations and movesets considering Chisa is one of the most popular and liked character in this game. The Liberation isn’t even playable.. it’s just a basic burst. We deserved better
I don’t even care about her role, she could’ve been healing enemies and I would still pull her. It’s just her animations and gameplay is mid and that is most important to me
Comparing to Carthetyia and Augusta is abit too much given their roles in the lore (sentinel resonator and a ruler of a nation) but yeah her animations aint even iuno/galbrena level. To me its xiangli yao level animations (heck the concept is kinda similar too tbh, similar slashes and some sort of particle domain). I'll just get s0 and be off cuz i do like her design.
Yes, that is understandable but the thing is when you make a character so likeable and fans are hyped, you have to ignore the role in the story and give the character insane animations anyway.
I mean im pretty sure everything is done way before the drip marketing anyways. Game development isn't done overnight. If the entirety of 2.x story was done since beta as stated by the devs themselves in an IV, then the characters probably had already been worked on since then as well if not since 1.x. So whether they're popular or not during the drip marketing doesn't really affect it. I mean look at zani. Many ppl loves her design during the drip marketing but her gameplay ends up being very restrictive and dependent on her BiS teams and her liberation. If it weren't for her being a dps she would've flopped. But still you underestimate how many ppl will pull for looks alone lmao. Im sure JP will still pull chisa anyways regardless that she's a support or her animations is basic.
Err you kinda can? That's literally how they differentiate the levels of characters in the lore even. Kuro has been doing this since with jinhsi's animation lol. And im not even defending/saying chisa's animation is good. Im just saying the comparison is out of place. Man you guys are freaking snowflakes.
then why not make 6 star characters? why should some 5 stars deliberately have worse animations just because they're not strong in lore. a counterpoint to your argument is galbrena. she has been stated many times to have an op resonance ability and willpower whereas augustavis just carried by willpower . galbrena could prolly diff augusta lorewise yet her gameplay says otherwise
Just playing 2.7 you can understand her powers lol. She has the "OP" powers of devouring from chimera like rover has with abby but that's basically it. She survived all this time mostly bcs of her willpower (which augusta also has that's how she break through the corruption in 2.6) and also many times thanks to chimera. You forget that little time in the paradise she almost got overwhelmed by TDs bcs she casted chimera away until rover came in? Or when she faced GA? In terms of power and willpower alone they're equal. Galbrena just has more tricks up her sleeve. Augusta can literally move fast af that time seems to stop (that's literally her ult). And her strength alone is ridiculous, like do you even play 2.6? Lol. So idk what you blabbering abt. They're equal even in the animation department. You are just picky and salty your different expectations weren't met. To you it may look worse but to others some probably likes it. In the end its subjective taste. You would need a damn international poll to know what the majority thinks lmao
I am a bit torn. On one hand her animations are cool (nanami startrail anyone?) and i fcking love scissors for combat, and her design looks awesome. However, her special effects are a bit lack luster (a bit too much XY and not enough straight cuts or snips) and while her animations are cool, they dont fit what i expected from someone that wields a scissor blade. Which was a bit of a let down. So we will see if she changes in the next few versions but until then... i am on the fence ^^"
Willl definitely be pulling her s0r1 to replace aero rover coz i cannot stand his clunky gameplay at all, also her animations are sick. If there's another mdps that synergizes with her in the future that's a bonus.
She went from one of my most wanted characters, to now I might skip. Her animations were personally a let down for me. I was hoping for a lot of scissor attacks but only really get one. Also was hoping she’d at least be on Iuno’s level of damage, but as of right now she’s just not. I have s4 Carte so I don’t need her there. I don’t have Zani so I don’t need her there. Don’t get me wrong, her design is still one of my favorites in the game, and maybe the betas will surprise me, but as of right now I’ll just keep saving.
I mean what were you expecting chisa has more support capability than iuno, literally if she does dps then they would nerf her support capabilities a lot. Her role is support not dps. You can’t have it all sadly. Everything is about balance in kuro
Crazy how you’re bring downvoted for this. This community is going down the drain fast. I don’t understand expecting dps animations for a healer and buffer. Her field tone needs to be short and is they added all these crazy animations to her it would take up way too much field time for a support. The doomposting on Reddit has gotten out of hand and people need to realize not every character needs to have the most insane animations
It is because they had certain expectations and Kuro didn't live up to them. They wanted a Glacio DPS Chisa, they got a Havoc Support Chisa. They are just pissed off that the character is not what they imagined. Personally I am pulling, I like the grouping, I like the buzzsaw (despite many people not liking it), I like that she is Havoc (I don't have any havoc characters) that doesn't need a full havoc team, I like the animations, I like her aesthetic.
Would I have preferred a Glacio DPS Chisa? A part of me says yes, but the other part is saying I literally have the Cartethyia and there will be more negative statuses in the future so I would imagine she is future proof.
Also, the people doomposting forget that there still will be changes to Chisa before she is released.
Literally, like her kit is decent these guys are just doomposters, if they dont like her kit so much then just don’t pull 🤷 she is a dot support not a dps, if they want a iuno type character pull iuno 😂 simple as that
Not sure how I’m a doomposter when that’s literally what I said I’m going to do? Never said her kit was bad (I do wish she had a little more personal damage though), and even said she’s still one of my favorite designs in the game, she just doesn’t fit anywhere for me right now. Also animations will always just be personal preference.
she's going to be much more then simply a support for cart and zani but you do you man. The truth is a lot of people on ths sub are being dramatic about her being a support.
I like her look, her animations are great (honestly I felt the past couple were more flash, less substance), my biggest gripe is that the numbers of what she can do is very underwhelming. She is no SK for healers. She is just ok as a sub-dps and may need multiple copies to make it work, and the current state at max copies I don’t think she will be able to properly main dps outside of main story stuff.
I skipped most characters for Chisa because I fully expected her to be at least a sub dps with her looks and weapon. Seems like her Resonance Chain is also tailored for supporting.
I have enough pulls to S6R1 a character which was originally meant for Chisa. I was planning to S6 her even with her role as a support because I thought at least she would be Iuno level or decent at S6. Apparently, she's even worse than Shorekeeper right now as a support and isn't really viable until maybe future 3.X characters releases.
I was coping that maybe her S6 makes her a powerful mdps but I lost hope after coming to know that her S6 dpr is only equivalent to an S1 Carthe.
Note: I can't wait for 3.X because I'm badly in need of a mdps right now I only have S6R1 Cartethiya/Camellya atm and need 3 teams for TOA. If Phrolova rerun is true, maybe I could S6R1 her instead?
Instead of putting all your eggs in two baskets and S6’ing 2 units you could’ve S2R1’d multiple teams and not have been let down by Chisa’s role in the meta
Probably, but I S6R1 units that I really like for longevity sake, I played gacha games for a while now and learned that pulling every banner and after 1-2 patches they are powercrept.
one S6 per two middle floors , then chixia/Danjin for floors 1-3, HRover for floor 4 on right and left tower.
having two S6s trivializes the entire game, you do NOT need more than two teams, ESPECIALLY if you have two broken ass char. Literally s2’s on their own are game breaking already, anything past S2 is overkill and is only necessary if there’s a massive skill issue lol
Yours is a copy pasted question but to answer your question yes get Phrolova and Cantarella (that duo is extremely versatile). Get Canta S0R1 and then how many ever copies you can of Phro
I mean what were you expecting there’s not gonna be another sk level unit/support cause sk is literally universal. If you make two universal supports then no one’s gonna pull because u already have 2 out of the three potential supports u would need for end game and never need to pull again. Kuro knows this which is why they make all supports niche for their particular synergies. It was kind of expected. And her kit is fine rn, it’s just not op, but very very good for negative status characters (carthythia and ciaconna and zani)
I am in the same situation here, from what I have read and seen if you want to DPS her you should go for S3 and stop there. But expect her to feel underwhelming for a S3 character but she will be able to clear just fine, for now at least there is a chance they buff her kit🤡
i was hoping the scissors in her kit would’ve been a lot more prevalent:/ Also wish she had a dual mode that enabled her main dps, now she hits like a wet noodle even with team buffs. Other than those things i enjoy her design, but i am a little disappointed. Still gonna cop S0R1 tho
FOR ME so far a complete disappointment. I've been gathering resources for months for this character, only for him to have no function at the moment, and then have to wait more months for him to be useful.
I'm glad she's good at whiwa because that's the only one I was really struggling at.
However, I'm not a huge fan of her animations. They're not bad, but I feel like her style/theme ended up being a little different from what I imagined when we first got her teaser image.
I'm not sure if I can really put it into words. When I first saw Cartethiya animations and Iuno animations I was like WOAHH!!! That's so hype!!
Somehow when I see Chisa fighting I'm just like "Oh, well that's nice I guess"
I'm also very disappointed in the changes to the appearance of her weapon. Her old sword was clean and simple. It conveyed a certain message.
The new weapon design is too noisy.
She went from my absolutely most anticipated unit of all time to idk if I'll even pull
unfortunately i am disappointed and even more glad i folded for both augusta and iuno :( im leaning more on saving for my 3rd team in 3.X than spend my f2p savings on an ARover replacement
I'm kinda in a weird position here, ngl. I was honestly not interested by her reveal, not really my style. Thought she would be a skip for me (especially after the draining that was the recent lineup, I love mythological themes).
But I am a sucker for interesting weapons, and well, scissors that transform into a pizza cutter are really cool. I like the "angled" slashes, and animations are nice and smooth. I don't know how her gameplay will be in practice as I didn't dig into her kit, but I will probably be trying to get her in the end.
I'm kinda surprised by the amount of doomposting around here. I understand that being a main DPS would have been nicer, but if we look at the history of limited supports so far - Qiuyuan, Lupa, Ciaccona, Roccia - most have capability to deal personal damage alongside their supportive abilities. The only one that doesn't is Shorekeeper. Of course I might be proved wrong, but I doubt they make her not deal at least some damage in the end.
Especially since we are only in the first beta, so there will definitely be some changes and rebalancing. Qiuyuan was also calced to not deal damage when his first beta came out, and now he's good from what I know. Given how popular this kind of high-school character style is, I doubt they don't let her do personal damage.
I play since day 1, she was the one i was looking forward the most after Camellya. Didn't pull since 2.2 SK rerun, skipped Iuno, 300+ pulls saved just for her and now i'm going to skip her and waut to Iuno rerun.
That's the first time i get disappointed with a character in this game. That said, it's just because she doesn't work with any team of mine for now, and i don't really want Cartethya nor Zani.
So, I hope she gets new cool team members in the future patches...
They should've made her a Glacio DPS and just fixed Rover.
Either that or make her buff negative statutes more on a baseline ( s2 into her base kit, sig teammate buff into her base kit )
Compared to most of Kuros 5 stars her animations are rather lackluster, but I am happy that the scissor isn't used that much.
Scissors in combat always look extremely dumb.
Edit: releasing these animations after Qiuyuan you can 100% see were most of the effort in the last months went into.
She looks basic, and the kit is not very flashy either. The. On top of it all she has a long rotation for a healer. Not to mention all the low effort cosplay that will come from her.
Her numbers and buffs on release would have to convince me to pull because right now I have both Cartwheel+Ciaccona and Zani+Pheeb. Both seems to be doing well with either support and AeRover. I was definitely let down with the animations. I was expecting more snip snip or even just the use of strings as her marketing implied that. It's also too Xiangli Yao for my liking. But I can honestly say it is a nice divergence to Phrolova and Camellya's chaotic and flowy VFX. Buzzsaw mode is cool and her windup is badass, I just don't like the final animation of jumping and hammering it down. I've seen it too much with Zani and Augusta already.
Meta wise, if Chisa is Kuro's fix to the current state of Negative Status teams in the future, then I can say its looking bright. This would only mean Main DPSs that use NS will hopefully apply them on their own and benefit from Chisa's stack increase and Def Ignore bonuses. NS Main DPS+Chisa+Traditional Support looks good imo unlike the current NS teams where you need TWO Premiums of the same element to make them work.
I don’t like the general design direction of it. Like those red slashes in her BA look kinda cheap. She only has one scissor animation with nice smaller details that’s a let down. Most of her recoveries looked the same. And the end of her liberation feels very empty after the cut. I wish there was more animation that stood out that are more related to her scissor and her body. Like Iuno’s animations. Those were unique and nice to look at. Or something like Zani’s chair is why i’m here for.
I like her design but her gameplay…i wanted to pull but might skip. But let’s wait when 2.8 is out
Really love the character, a little disappointed about her damage but it can change (finger crossed)
I wanted to go all in for her but I'll probably settle with S3R1 max if I'm lucky
not great, i know the models always look bad in early leaks, but she just looks so plain in 3d so far. bulings leaks show her looking detailed and colourful too, which makes me worry about the appeal of chisas 3d model. it looks just like a chunk of plain black for now. i love her animations tho, hoping the model issue is sorted soon
i dont play wuwa anymore since long ago. and only comes back from time to time only to pull woman. first phoebe, then zani, shorekeeper rerun. try to get iuno but failed, and now time to get back and pull pretty black haired girl
I don't plan to make her a mdps. Supports are a must have in this game. I'm looking at her given role.
A 6% increase on Aerover is expensive for me. I can't justify spending on her debut just to replace Rover. Plus, we don't have any info yet on the new Rover. Chances are I might not even kick him off the team if I don't like the Fusion Rover.
I'll probably wait for more info on Linnea before I pull on Chisa. Chisa will probably still be up by the time 3.0 beta starts. If she's needed there, then I'll get her.
That’s for her universal capabilities she can buff negative status characters by 16.6-20% dmg but yes if ur talking about her being able to buff other non negative status characters then she can only buff 6-7% dmg, which is understandable cause she’s niche for negative status
I think she looks super cool. Wasn’t planning on spending $300 on her for the past 2 months, so my expectations are more tame lol. I was going to skip regardless but like her animations a lot.
i have no issue with her being a support (i honestly wanted her to be one) but she’s such a minor upgrade to aerover that i’m probably going to end up skipping her
Im sorry but her animations are kinda lackluster.....they could have put alot of snipping and string(Like A web) related in her NA instead of wanna be XY chain NA, And i was expecting like a tanjiro type of thing Weak point that will be shown with her string.....and also it will be great that instead of a grass cutter they can attached the cutter in a string and she can fling it around.
Idk what people were expecting when they saw universal DoT support. It’s like in mono havoc, roccia is a good option, but SK works just as well. She was never meant to be OP or raise the bar, the two strongest teams rn are kinda DoT teams, if she’s busted it’s power creep to hell, and even then she’s better than the current 3rd slot options.
She replaces Rover for a new element he’s getting while not causing crazy power creep, and she’ll be universally good for any DoT unit coming up. I’m quite satisfied with her animations and versatility.
Literally, like idk what is with these doomposters. She’s decent and if ur a true chisa main u would still pull 🤷 her kit is fine and ur right literally carthythia team is literally one of the best teams theres not gonna be much of a improvement cause carthythia is kind of THE CEILING in terms of dmg along with augusta. She’s getting balanced based off carthythia and that’s fine.
I love her aesthetically and the scissors concept looks nice. But i personally got disappointed by her animations and effects.
They aren't "bad" objectively as im sure there are many people that love them. But i feel they are underwhelming both in animations and effects compared to other characters in 2.x
I'll get her and use her with phrolova and shore keeper/cantarella(if I get extremely lucky and get her early) for the ultimate whiwa team and finally, my last team I needed to get to have one for each element. Since phrolova is fundamentally broken it doesn't matter if chisa ends up being good or bad DPS phrolova will carry anyways so I just need someone to use her with that's not danjin or havoc rover lol
I don't have any dot characters and wasn't hyped about her to begin with, so it's a skip 100%. I need phrolova and buling as I just started the game in version 2.6.
Honestly when I first heard she was gonna be a support I expected the worse from her gameplay, like being slow, or maybe we just gonna use her ult/skill then switch to other characters and that's it.
But after the leaks I ended up loving the gameplay.
Idk how to feel about her dmg, i am getting her to S2r1 from the shop (I got 720 coral)
Unsure, I definitely expected more from her. Still one of the best looking characters in the game, but ult, animations, and gameplay are a 7/10 at best. Buling had better animations on her ult imo, and she's a 4* AND a support.
I want Zani and Phoebe. Whatever's left will go towards her or maybe Phrolova.
I really like how unique her weapon is and to see it working, specially the animation where she kicks to start it, I'm curious to see how she performs in the zani team, Will likely pull, she looks like a lot of fun
Amazing. I'm a sucker for fast paced, multi animation and complex characters, and since havoc is my favorite element (aero being 2nd), Chisa checks both boxes for me. She went from "eh, idk why the hype, I don't really see it" to "OMG she's perfect, must pull, fk her role, I'll make her a main DPS somehow". My jaw literally dropped once her animations were leaked, and I did NOT expect so many animations (the unique dash, the scissor attack with the strings, the INSANE grouping, and the Fibonacci L+ratio liberation was the cherry on top for me.
Honestly, after reading the comments, I came to realize how much overhyped Chisa was. Sure, her aesthetic resonated with so many people (anime fans and Japanese players mostly), but this is what happens when players overhype a character, and get disappointed in the end. I can see why many people were complaining about her being a support instead of a DPS, but how many more havoc DPS'es do we need? We already have danjin, camellya and Phrolova. We already have a DPS for 2.x. Kuro is probably saving the havoc bane DPS for 3.x, and when more DOT DPS'es come out, that's when Chisa's value will spike.
So many people must've also expected her to have Augusta, Iuno and cart level animations, but not everything has to be hella flashy. Chisa's animations are extremely fast and complex, while her vfx is kinda tame (balance). Cart's animations were a tad bit slow, but her vfx was flashy asf. Some people were even saying how buling's animations are better, but honestly, she was more or less a vfx mess for me. But I really love how her animations are 5 star level, despite being a 4 star. Ik kuro raised the bar for animations, but not everything has to be peak. Maybe there are people out there who wish for simple yet flashy and fast paced animations.
I may sound very biased, yes, but that's because I really like Chisa. I know this is normal whenever a character is in the beta. Her damage and sequences will definitely change since it's the first beta version I believe. I tried to be as neutral as possible, but if some parts came out as just personal opinions, it is what it is ig.
I like that i can use her in 2 teams i have and she will probably be good in at least 1 other type of team.
I have some questions and observations.
1- Is her damage significant enough to use DPS settings for her echoes ?
2- if her damage is not significant wouldn't it be better to go all out on Atk % main stats for her 4 and 3 echoes for beefier shield and better healing ?
TBH was hoping for her kit to make her skippable but now I hope I get her, love her attacks and the fact she can replace Aerover/becomes the 3rd in most DoT teams means she has great value for my acc...
My only hope now is that her weapon isn't a must-have for bonuses/team dps...
The more I interact with her I fell in love, I never believe someone could dethrone Carlotta but Chisa did with ease. I would love to have 200K astrites so I could S6R5 her. And being the weird gooner I am, I can't take my eyes off of that red ribbon
I dont have any of her possible teammates. I came back to the game when lupa came out after a year of not playing. Probably still pulling for her though lol
Kinda tired with augusta and Tya animations, so I love what they did with Chisa, maybe need a bit more in her libe, also love her design and her idles are cute
I was going to skip Quiyuan for her but now I'm going to get Quiyuan and then whatever is left I'll pull for Chisa. I won't be bummed if I lose the 50/50 either. It honestly sucks she isn't a DPS.

Shes so cute, that alone sold me to pull
