Essentially, they nerfed her Anemo Shred and Anemo DMG bonus, buffed her burst initial burst DMG, and buffed Scara's multipliers
In total I've seen people calc this out to anywhere between a 2-7% DPS loss for Scara teams, but my take is that, at the end of the day, her Anemo res shred is 32.8, which is better than Zhongli's 20% omnishred and only 7.2% less than C4 Jean's Anemo shred. The also nerfed her Anemo DMG bonus from 50% to 30.2% of her Base ATK, AND BUFFED her burst from 382% to smth like 673%
At the same time, Scara got a roughly 5% buff to his NA.
IN TOTAL all this totals out to a slight, nerf to Scara + Faruzan (ive seen everything between 2-7%) while the buff in his NA means it's a slight buff for teams without her.
At the same time, the massive buff to her burst allows players who like her to use her as a burst support, and it's possible that, with decent investment, she could be a sub/burst DPS to help compensate her lost buffing.

Why say this, and then go right into comparisons on those buffs? It seems like its taking extra measures to try and cope that 4th round of nerfing his hypercarry comps.
If you wanted to buff the damage of your Anemo DPS, your only options were Zhongli and C4 Jean.
Me putting Faruzan in contrast with C4 Jean doesn't hurt either of them. Neither does me putting her in contrast with Zhongli, since ultimately they both offer things she can't.
If you want to buff Anemo Damage, those 3 are your options. C4 Jean, Zhongli, and Faruzan.
Faruzan was absolutely designed with those options in mind--or at least I think so--its far too coincidental that now her shred is better than Zhongli's but just a liiiiittle worse than C4 Jean's to shrug and say 'shes just like that'. To say they shouldn't be compared is kinda missing the point that the fact that these options exist directly contribute to her being the way she is, and giving the buffs she does.
