Chevreuse is a brand new 4-star unit in Genshin Impact. Here is a detailed guide for the unit featuring her abilities, constellations, weapons, artifacts, and other details.

Chevreuse is a pretty interesting unit in Genshin Impact. She is someone who is focused on the Overloaded reaction and provides buffs surrounding the same.

However, the buffs she provides are quite significant in the game. She can replace some of the top supports such as Kazuha, and Bennett, as long as your primary focus is to build Overloaded teams. In short, if you have a team comprised of Electro and Pyro units, Chevreuse will be a valuable member within that.

Hence, if you are willing to pull for Chevreuse in Genshin Impact, we have got you covered. Here is all you need to know with regard to a detailed guide for the brand-new Pyro unit.

Chevreuse abilities in Genshin Impact

Normal Attack – Line Bayonet Thrust EX

Performs up to 4 consecutive spear strikes.

Charged Attack

Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to lunge forward, dealing damage to opponents along the way.

Plunging Attack

Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.

Elemental Skill – Short-Range Rapid Interdiction Fire

Chevreuse quickly shoulders her musket and fires at her opponent(s), dealing AoE Pyro DMG. For a short duration after Chevreuse fires a shot, she will continuously restore HP to the active character on the field. The amount healed in based on her max HP.
Hold to fire in a different fashion.

Hold
Enter Aiming Mode, locking a target in her sights to fire a precise interdiction shot. If Chevreuse has an Overcharged Ball, then she will fire the Overcharged Ball instead, dealing greater Pyro DMG in a larger area.

Chevreuse gains 1 Overcharged Ball every time a nearby party member triggers an Overloaded reaction, and can have up to 1 Overcharged Ball at a time.

Arkhe: Ousia
Periodically, after Chevreuse’s Short-Range Rapid Interdiction Fire hits, a Surging Blade will be called forth that deals Ousia-aligned Pyro DMG.

Elemental Burst – Ring of Bursting Grenades

Chevreuse fires an explosive grenade at opponents with her musket, dealing AoE Pyro DMG. After the projectile hits, it will split into many secondary explosive shells.
The secondary explosive shells will burst after a short interval, dealing Pyro DMG to nearby opponents.

Passives

  • Vanguard’s Coordinated Tactics: When the Elemental Type of all party members is Pyro or Electro and there is at least one Pyro and one Electro Elemental Type each in the party:
    Chevreuse grants “Coordinated Tactics” to nearby party members: After a character triggers the Overloaded reaction, the Pyro and Electro RES of the opponent(s) affected by this Overloaded reaction will be decreased by 40% for 6s. The “Coordinated Tactics” effect will be removed when the Elemental Types of the characters in the party do not meet the basic requirements for the Passive Talent.
  • Vertical Force Coordination: After Chevreuse fires an Overcharged Ball using Short-Range Rapid Interdiction Fire, nearby Pyro and Electro characters in the party gain 1% increased ATK for every 1000 Max HP Chevreuse has for 30s. ATK can be increased by up to 40% in this way.
  • Double Time March: Decreases sprinting Stamina consumption for your own party members by 20%. Not stackable with Passive Talents that provide the exact same effects.

Likewise, Chevreuse’s Constellations have also leaked ahead of her release date.

  • Level One – Stable Front Line’s Resolve: When active characters with the “Coordinated Tactics” status (not including Chevreuse herself) trigger the Overloaded reaction on opponents, they will recover 6 Energy. This effect can be triggered once every 10s.
    You must first unlock the Passive Talent “Vanguard’s Coordinated Tactics.”
  • Level Two – Sniper Induced Explosion: After Holding Short-Range Rapid Interdiction Fire and hitting a target, trigger 2 chain explosions at the location where said target was hit. Each explosion deals Pyro DMG equal to 120% of Chevreuse’s ATK. This effect can be triggered up to once every 10s, and DMG dealt by this skill is considered Elemental Skill DMG.
  • Level Three – Practiced Field Stripping Technique: Increases the Level of Short-Range Rapid Interdiction Fire by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.
  • Level Four – The Secret to Rapid-Fire Multishots: After using Ring of Bursting Grenades, the CD for Chevreuse using Hold Short-Range Rapid Interdiction Fire is decreased by 100%. This effect is removed after Short-Range Rapid Interdiction Fire has been fired twice using Hold or after 6s.
  • Level Five – Enhanced Incendiary Firepower: Increases the Level of Ring of Bursting Grenades by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.
  • Level Six – In Pursuit of Ending Evil: After 12s of the healing effect from Short-Range Rapid Interdiction Fire, all nearby party members recover HP equivalent to 10% of Chevreuse’s Max HP.
    After a party member is healed by Short-Range Rapid Interdiction Fire, they gain a 20% Pyro DMG Bonus and Electro DMG Bonus for 8s. Max 3 stacks. Each stack’s duration is counted independently.

Best Chevreuse artifacts in Genshin Impact

Chevreuse is a support character, which means you can easily go for Noblesse Oblige. The set bonus for this artifact set has been discussed in the following section:

  • 2-piece bonus: Elemental Burst DMG +20%
  • 4-piece bonus: Using an Elemental Burst increases all party members’ ATK by 20% for 12s. This effect cannot stack.

Best Chevreuse weapons in Genshin Impact

Favonius Lance can function pretty well for Chevreuse in the game

Chevreuse being a support unit can benefit from a wide range of weapons. However, the best one you can go for is Favonius Lance. This weapon will not only increase Chevreuse’s energy recharge but will also ensure that the rest of the party can get their Ultimate abilities back on time.

Additionally, you can go for something like Rightful Reward or the three-star polearm Black Tassle. If you are planning on building a sub-DPS Chevreuse, you can go for something like Staff of Homa or Staff of Scarlet Sands.

However, both of these are 5-star weapons and sub-DPS Chevreuse is not as recommended.

Best Chevreuse teams in Genshin Impact

Chevreuse primarily functions in teams that can trigger the Overloaded reaction. The best team for Chevreuse in the game is Raiden National. In this team, you can replace Xingqiu with Chevreuse which will significantly enhance the overall damage output of the entire team.

You can also replace Kazuha by Chevreuse in the Raiden hypercarry team as the buffs from her passive are the same. This means, that unless you require Kazuha’s grouping ability, Chevreuse can be a very good replacement.

You can also run a team comprised of Yoimiya, Chevreuse, Raiden Shogun, and Zhongli. This team will also benefit from the buffs that are triggered through the Overloaded reaction. In short, Chevreuse can work in almost any team that is made of Electro and Pyro units.
