Finding:
Reducing Barbara E animation for optimizing the "first heal"
Evidence:
- Just Switch: https://youtu.be/8d4SAxy2yrM
- Just Switch and Beyond: https://youtu.be/yBNpbQNPVgg
Significance
A mechanic which is super useful to abuse the switch character cooldowns while using character's E between delays. So far I found only Barbara being able to do it consistently
Steps to Reproduce
- Switch to Barbara
- Press the button to swap to another character and immediately spam E

Finding:
Barbara has a small time window during her initial Elemental Skill cast that allows her to dash and cancel the Elemental Skill, while avoiding the cooldown and triggering 4-Piece set bonuses from artifacts.
Evidence:
YouTube Video
4-Piece Shimenawa's Reminiscence:
- Unbuffed: 93 DMG
- Buffed: 140 DMG
4-Piece Heart of Depth:
- Unbuffed: 98 DMG
- Buffed: 109 DMG
Significance:
Potential improvement for Main DPS Barbara as you can now avoid her long Elemental Skill cooldown.

Finding:
If a character dies at the same time the player switches characters, the death animation for the dead character will not activate, and neither will the revive from Barbara C6.
Evidence:
YouTube
The death animation and revive activates for Qiqi, but not for Aloy.
Significance:
Barbara C6 is potentially worse as a safety net against death since it can be canceled by switching, which is common in regular play.
