Chongyue is a good consistent DPS unit, but one that ultimately plays more similar to a laneholder rather than one of the high ceiling DPS units. This means he's a very solid investment choice, particularly in story-oriented content, but is a few steps off of the high-bar Physical Guards need to reach. His primary skill is his S3. When fully ramped up, he's tough to beat in sustained DPS and his unique and large range will make you look at stages in a whole new way. It has extremely strong Mastery gains that are basically essential to using him. In this guide, S-tier skills rarely get "extra credit" for value, but Chongyue's S3 is one of the exceptions. The upgrades from SL7 to M3 grant a triple threat of oversized value. First, his damage per activation bumps an above average ~25%. Second, his all critical ramp-up reduces by ~20%. Third, once he is fully ramped up, he activates those already harder punches ~20% more frequently! Keep in mind that his drawbacks (wind-up, scaling vs DEF, lack of sustain) tend to be exacerbated in high-end gameplay. Chongyue will blow away most Story content, but Advanced and Roguelike players will still find him to be a relative luxury, despite the
