So I recently watched https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLLofrwRlBg by Vaati and at around 4:30 min into the video, you can see him chaincasting.

I tried chaincasting "Catch Flame" into "Magma Breath" / "Theodorix Magma" which seems to got patched some time ago. Though to my surprise you can still chaincast them by using "Catch Flame" midair, followed by either Magma Breath when landing.
This however seems bugged, because the animation for the Magma Breath is another animation entirely when doing it that way. Though casting "Bestial Sling" midair followed by either Magma Breath after landing works properly and has the expected animation.

I only tested chaincasting with "Magma Breath" and "Theodorix Magma" as the second part of the combo so I don't know if there are any other bugged combinations with whatever spell or incantation.
Just wanted to point that out and hopefully get it fixed :)

some spells have bugged animations if used right after some others, yeah, even without jumping. I remember seeing placidusax's ruin used right after another spell making the user not float and with the lower part of the body not moving at all while the upper one did.

*wheeze*

Some sorceries of the same type can be chaincasted, such as glinttsone pebble with the icecrag.

There are some approved forms of chaincasting, and some that people hate. You can chaincast triple rings into single ring easily, however the really good one is to jump into a catch clame, and then cast honed bolt upon landing. This will skip the animation and instantly shock people with the lightning bolt. You can also set this up in the first spell slot, and cycle through it with chain lightning. that also can chain out of a catch flame, honed bolt, or you can chain all of them together. It still works on the current patch.

Now, obviously people are going to hate you for using this tactic, but it is highly viable in pvp with the right build. Good luck!

p.s. you have to cast one regular honed bolt before it will work, sorry i didn't mention that

The animation for the chaincasted "Honed Bolt" after mid air "Catch Flame" shown in your clip is the exact same animation I got with "Theodorix Magma". It sure is super effective given how fast it casts but I won't use it because it doesn't seem right nor intended... Gotta be a real Dungeater to abuse such tactis combined with the pointdown as shown at the end of that clip

FROM tries to fix one bug challenge (impossible)
