https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPHskykRAAQ i tried to check if it's the same with keqing using overload and to see if it takes away any GU from the shield. It seemed like the overload didn't happen at the location of the swap πŸ€”
we'll do proper write up format once i figure out if its kazuha exclusive i guess? πŸ€” and not even sure i did the above super correct. keqing TP is so dizzying

dori and keqing, keqing only works if you preplace her teleport because the animation where she places it has her taking out the sword

This ticket has been renamed to weapon infusion reaction location by @lesterberne

on a similar note to keqing EE resetting the reaction location, a kazuha plunge also would, so this is limited to unplunged E's or the initial E(p) as well as Q so long as you haven't used a plunge attack or normal attack

f99shiThu, November 14, 2024 at 05:26 PM
okay i was right
the Q updates the location
so it does have to do with the animation pulling out the sword
wait
hmmm
you switched after moving with chongyun
and didnt move on kazuha

i need 1 more video from you guys :PrayKeqing:
i want to write this "Weapon Infusion reactions occur at the location where the last weapon was unsheathed (even if that weapon is not the current active character's weapon)"

so i want an extra video where we do:
Chongyun E > swap to a random character without doing anything > move to another location > swap to Dori or whoever > move to another location > use infusion ability
This should lead the reaction to happen at the location of the first swap because only Chongyun took out his sword πŸ€”
(doing it with keqing is too dank so im not recording one)

I'm guessing it must be hard coded that it happens at the location of the latest swap if the weapon isn't showing
rather than the previous weapon shown since it also isn't the one that's infused
it's funny that we're theorycrafting what was probably an afterthought single liner :SOBS: if (weapon not out yet) then location of last swap :kekw:

its hardcoded but it feels like a bug or like a lazy fail safe no? :KEKpat:
imagina they fix it next update and all this for nothing :eulamains:

weebThu, November 14, 2024 at 09:28 PM
they could have chosen to do it at the character's location too, but maybe they thought that's reserved for self auras :SHRUGE: it's lots of fun playing around with it it but it really is not something that will alter your gameplay too much, since the only teams where it mattrers are bennett "free" swirl teams that are confined to a small circle anyway so the swirl radius won't screw you and you also won't have moved very far/wouldn't want to
you're gonna love this I found something else :omegalul:

Finding: Weapon Infusion reactions occur at the location of the last character swap, if the active character's weapon is sheathed prior to its infusion.

Evidence:
- Kazuha C6:
- credit: @/weeb - https://youtu.be/u1Isj7JefS4 (using E to get the infusion)
- credit: @/weeb - https://youtu.be/n-WNToQuvh4 (using Q to get the infusion -> weapon unsheathed during Q animation, before infusion)
- credit: @/weeb - https://youtu.be/c91aQGjUEoM (swapping twice to determine if the location is the last swap)
- Dori C6:
- credit: @/f99shi - https://youtu.be/r35N7Qm3aAg
- Keqing:
- credit: @/f99shi - https://youtu.be/XrZGepCcj4w (using E before the setup, and another E after the setup)
- credit: @/f99shi - https://youtu.be/Pj2TOqCV2x8 (using EE after the setup -> weapon unsheathed at initial E cast, before infusion)
- credit: @/Lesterberne - https://youtu.be/VRm5GLQuhU0 (using E before the setup, then N1 and another E after the setup)
- Lynette C6:
- credit: @/sanest emu fan - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cgaSu2-GwU
- credit: @/nekorul - https://youtu.be/DTmg5Cgk9d8

Kazuha's Q and Keqing's initial E cast unsheathe their swords before an infusion can occur. In such scenarios, the reaction behaves as expected by triggering at that weapon's location. Similarly, doing a Normal Attack counts as unsheathing your sword.
In scenarios where the active character's weapon is sheathed before an infusion, the reaction occurs at the location of the last swap.

Significance: When doing Kazuha/Lynette C6 Weapon Swirl setups, be careful of the location.
@weeb can u pin the above?
It's not done but i just wanted to put it out there for people to let me know if we change stuff before we close and submit

lesterberneThu, November 14, 2024 at 09:47 PM
wonder if i should add this tho :HuTaoWorry: if you're in EU i can COOP with you + someone else and we can try to see how long it goes.

Player 1: Kazuha + Swapping character
Player 2: Chongyun
Player 3: Observer

Player 3 and Player 1 are in a far away location. Player 1 is using the swapping character. They swap to Kazuha and TP to Player 2's location. Player 2 cast Chongyun E. Player 1 cast Kazuha E. Player 3 reports if they see the thingy :HuTaoWorry:
