Notes
Normal attacks without Lightning Storm (A4 passive) active lose about 30% damage output.
C0-C3 Beidou's should use N4 cancels or N5 dash cancels.
Beidou's normal attack string concludes with a kick to the sword with her foot. Whether her model makes contact with the claymore depends on the model size of the claymore. We can conclude that it is intended to be a kick to the claymore because a sound will play no matter what model size the claymore.
Charged Attack
Beidou consumes 40 stamina a second to perform continuous slashes.
At the end of the 5 seconds, perform a more powerful slash.

Recalling her slaying of the great beast Haishan, Beidou calls upon that monstrous strength and the lightning to create a Thunderbeast's Targe around herself, dealing Electro DMG to nearby opponents.
Thunderbeast's Targe
• When Normal and Charged Attacks hit, they create a lightning discharge that can jump between opponents, dealing Electro DMG.
• Increases active character’s resistance to interruption and decreases DMG taken.
A maximum of 1 lightning discharge can be triggered per second.

Notes
Beidou's lightning discharges have 3 damage instances with 2 targets or more.
Stormbreaker's additional arc lightning can jump back to the initial target.
The counter for the cooldown does not start on when Beidou's lightning discharge hits, but when the normal attack hits. Hence, the discharge CD can be randomly and inconsistently affected by ping spikes and is not consistently 1 second. - Vault Entry​
Lightning discharge can bounce off Mitachurl Shields but will deal no damage.
Snapshot on cast.
However, if you swap to Beidou and cast her Burst too quick (Left Alt + Switch Character), her Lightning DMG might fail to snapshot certain buffs.

Notes
Stunning Revenge DMG has 3 hit / 2.5s ICD and shares ICD on Normal Attack, Charged Attack and with Stormbreaker's lightning discharges.
Use N2 cancels to maximize Electro DMG.
C4 can be activated by certain teammate's hit, e.g., Kujou Sara's Tengou Juurai.
C4 is activated on hit, regardless taking damage or not. So it can be activated through shields, either her own or allies'.
Crimson Tidewalker
Increases the Level of Stormbreaker by 3.
Maximum upgrade level is 15.
Bane of Evil
During the duration of Stormbreaker, the Electro RES of surrounding opponents is decreased by 15%.
Notes
The range of this effect is extremely short at just over 1 abyss tile of range.
The initial cast of Beidou's Burst doesn't benefit from her C6.
