"Ch'en, back from holiday in Dossoles. I've got quite a few reports to write about the holiday, so I just stopped by to say hello, Doctor. Call me if you're going on a mission, the holiday is over and it's business as usual."
-------------
Lady Fumizuki. Reading your letter made me feel like I was talking to you again. Thank you for inviting me on this holiday to the city of Dossoles. To be honest, the city was a bit overwhelming for me, and at first I even thought it was a punishment for leaving Lungmen. But when I finished the holiday and looked back on it, I realised that it wasn't so bad after all. I have seen things here that have troubled me, but they have also made me think. I also reunited here with someone I didn't expect to and I must admit that without this opportunity I would have had a hard time crossing paths with her. It was not a great holiday for me, but it was unique enough that I think I will remember it for a long time. Finally, please give my best regards to Wei Yenwu. Chen Hui-chieh.

First Impressions
Note: These are first impressions and based on conjecture since we don’t know the exact details.
Ch'en alter will be the first 6 star of the Spreadshooter Archetype (we previously called this archetype Boomstick, e.g. Executor).
Her Skills are a mix of damage and crowd control. Her S1 is her consistent damage option, applying her Trait damage bonus to her entire range. S2's main feature appears to be the application of a movement speed and DEF reduction to enemies over an increased range, and the skill can be charged for increased duration. Her S3 tries to do it all, increasing her ATK, applying her trait bonus to her entire range, and reducing Movement Speed and DEF.
Her Talents appear to have fairly limited applicability.
The previous members of this Archetype have not been particularly strong or impactful Operators. Ch'en does have things in her kit that address some of the major weaknesses of the Archetype: limited attack and trait range. Will it be enough?
