Multiple usages of Shenhe's E only refresh Icy Quill stacks and its version of A4 buff duration
Icy Quills are Dynamic - Video - CC#5588
Anemo Abilities with Cryo Absorbed Consume Quill Stacks - Video - CC#5588
Additionally, Cryo Swirls don't consume Quill Stacks
When you trigger Quill procs on a snapshot ability, it uses the snapshotted stats. - Video - tenten#1010
Shenhe press E does not have hitlag - Video - TWICE#9958
Shenhe tap E is capable of escaping Mirror Maiden's cage. Hold E however, is not - Video - Mcpie#8672
Icy quills are used up even if no damage is dealt to an enemy when they have a shield - Video - ꀍꏂꀤꌚꏂꈤꌃꏂꋪꁅ#4332
Icy quills increase the damage dealt to shields by around 15 to 20% (excluding cryo) - ꀍꏂꀤꌚꏂꈤꌃꏂꋪꁅ#4332
Using Shenhe's Hold E on an explosive barrel doesn't get her knocked back - Video - Sincronic#3171
It makes her immune to all staggers and knockbacks
Shenhe E has no ICD

Finding: Shenhe does not have ICD.
Quills Don't Work on Balloons
By: Sincronic#3171 Added: 2022-03-09 Discussion
Finding: Shenhe's quills don't work and aren't spent when attacking commission balloon with Cryo.
Evidence: YouTube video
Significance: Understanding of quill mechanics.
Burst Mechanics
Cooldown Starts on Q Press | Duration Timer Starts after the Animation - Video - CC#5588
Energy Consumption is on Q Press - Video - CC#5588
Burst does not have enough iframes for explosive barrel immunity - Video - Mcpie#8672
Ascension Mechanics
A1: Deific Embrace
A1 is dynamic and changes as the character enters and exits the Shenhe Q Field - Video - CC#5588

Constellation Mechanics
C1: Clarity of Heart
The charges refreshes Shenhe stacks based on the latest type of Elemental Skill cast (tap/hold). You do not gain more stacks than the latest cast type cap, nor do you gain more damage per quill. Energy generation does not have a cooldown, so you can double cast consecutively to gain energy faster. - Video - Sitri#9504
The cooldowns of each skill stack, and it keeps track of the order used. - Video / Video 2 - TWICE#9958
In the first video we have hold E > hold E. There is a 15s CD that starts with the first hE, then a full 15s after that for the next skill use. In the second video we have hE > press, which shows the 15s CD > 10s CD.
C2: Centered Spirit
The Cryo damage bonus from Shenhe's A1 and crit damage buff from her C2 linger a bit after her burst animation ends. - Video - TWICE#9958
C4: Insight
Shenhe C4 Mechanics
By: Zamo#6399 Added: 2022-02-21 Discussion
Finding: Shenhe E consumes a Quill, however the first E cast does not give the initial E a C4 stack and instead counts towards the next E; C4 stacks are gained after the damage has been dealt and not before.
Evidence:
Press E: YouTube video
Hold E: YouTube video
Significance: Better understanding of Shenhe's C4 mechanics.
Synergies/Interactions
Shenhe E applies A4 buff fast enough to buff Eula's Lightfall explosion via the "swap trick". - Video - TWICE#9958

Oscillation Tests on Prominent Body Regions of Shenhe's Model from Various Attacks
By: CC#5588 Added: 2022-01-04 Basic Mechanics Discussion
Finding: These slow-motioned clips show that Shenhe's Gluteal Region does not exhibit oscillation after doing any of her attacks, dissimilar to Eula. Meanwhile, the Pectusculum Region manifests this phenomenon with almost all of her attacks with the exception of her N5, although this could be an error on my part with my visual analysis and/or camera positioning. Timestamps can be found in the video description.
Evidence: Video
