The Polar Star is an amazing tool for Main and Sub-DPS characters. Even at only 2-3 buff stacks, the weapon will give a substantial DMG increase to any character who relies on their Elemental Skill or Burst for DMG.
The Polar Star is a decent alternative for Yoimiya if she doesn't have her best weapon or the Rust. Her Elemental Skill can't give her a stack and she doesn't really use charged attacks, but it's still a good weapon that increases her CRIT Rate by a lot.
Yelan can take full advantage of the buffs the Polar Star can provide, especially as the Main DPS. Though the ATK% buff doesn't affect her Elemental Skill or Burst, it can still affect her Normal Attack DMG!

So, what's the best tactic to get all stacks active? I'm still figuring out if I have use for it before I try getting Zhongli's spear next patch. Unfortunally I can't imagine any fitting archer for it as I barely use all 4 types of dmg sources for any of my archers. I don't have Tartaglia btw and don't plan getting him.
