Creator Server footage showed near-360° tracking.
That functionality was reportedly reduced before release, with some corrections appearing only in creators’ comments.
Now, live-version players report inconsistent lock-ons and Charged Attacks firing into empty space.
Mitya’s targeting controversy isn’t just about a nerf.
From impressive pre-release showcases to last-minute changes, inconsistent targeting after launch, and another concerning official notice. No transparency and player trust.

@GenshinUniverse From impressive pre-release showcases to last-minute changes, inconsistent targeting after launch, and another concerning official notice. No transparency and player trust.
From impressive pre-release showcases to last-minute changes, inconsistent targeting after launch, and another concerning official notice — this raises serious questions about transparency and player trust.
Mitya is bugged and it'll be fixed in 7.3.
• When the character performs a special Charged Attack, there is a chance that it will fail to deal DMG to enemies that only move in the vertical direction.
• In Trounce Domains, after an enemy enters a new combat phase, there is a chance that Gradient Beacons carried by the character will fail to transform the nearby area into a Polestar Field.
• At certain camera angles, there is a chance that the "Detection Core: Steady State" created by Mitya's Elemental Skill will fail to clear some destructible rocks.
• The character's appearance will display incorrectly in certain scenes.
• Additionally, while the character performs special Charged Attacks consecutively, there is a chance that the attacks will hit enemies behind the character when adjusting the attacking direction automatically.

We want:
• Reliable targeting, not attacks into empty space
• Clear explanations of targeting mechanics
• No further harmful changes without proper evaluation
• Appropriate remedies for confirmed defects
Players deserve transparency, not a choice between bugs and nerfs.
Remember Neuvillette?
HoYoverse restricted his Charged Attack rotation as a bug fix in 2024.
After player backlash, the change was REVERTED and eligible players received 1,600 Primogems.
A “bug fix” shouldn’t automatically justify reducing released functionality.
HoYoverse’s Nov. 12 notice still doesn’t directly address these targeting failures.
Instead, it flags Mitya occasionally hitting enemies behind him.
And “deals damage in front” does NOT automatically mean “can only acquire targets within 180°.”
