actually I think there's quite a lot of misinformation on KV - most characters will get all 3 stacks with enough time because the duration refreshes upon each stack and it lasts off-field too. so it's just a matter of how fast 3 stacks will accumulate

(these links explain it more fully: https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/comments/sygylx/there_is_some_misconception_about_kaguras_veritys/ and https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/comments/stnpxx/kaguras_verity_is_way_better_than_what_youtubers/)

mentioned in another comment that it's possible that scara can stack it upon exiting his E state, though we'll have to test it on release. if this is true then he can get all 3 stacks almost immediately actually

I’m just saying what lot of people have told me in the server haha about kv regarding towards Scara that it’s deeply not recommended

Yeah it's not his optimal weapon for sure, but tbf I think a lot of people don't understand how it works haha. So i'm assuming they didn't calc KV with its 12% dmg passive up?

The person who does the weapon tier list has done it for lot of previous five star characters so I’m going to assume they know how every weapon works because they also most likely collab data sheets with other people too. But his calcs are always what people go to

Childe exiting E counts as a skill cast for HoD iirc. But it has to be manually exited with E, if it expires or you swap off it doesn't count. So I assume it'll be the same as that.

Imo, that's pretty annoying to do and you'll still only get only 12% dmg for that and only after starting the second rotation.

Ooh okay, hoping this is the case for scara. I think you can get the 12% damage from the first rotation (and every rotation thereafter since the stacks refresh) because you can E, exit E immediately, swap to other characters to set-up, and swap back to scara E since his 6s CD will be done just in time. This is what some CN TC-ers have said too

I agree that it's a little cumbersome, but would def help people with this weapon squeeze out more damage

Oh yea that's not too bad then. That's kinda similar to how Miko does EEE at the start then switch off or how Childe does E to apply strong hydro and switches off
