How do I know when to use blendshapes over not using them?
I know people use them for mouth shapes but what about body movements, clothing physics, etc. I've only seen people do examples for VBriger but I can't find alternative tutorials. How does it affect physics as well?
Does anyone have links to good and explanatory tutorials for blendshapes?

generally, use them when you have a good reason to have more than 2 params per object, vbridger mouths or long hair physics are good examples
it doesn't affect physics in any other way than a normal parameter would, just lets you rig things on one object instead of stacking deformers

Okay that makes a bit more sense. I'm very anxious on using them because I have no clue how they actually work. And how other things are going to affect them or vice-versa

Currently they cant be used with object that have skinning, but that may be fixed in the future.
(well, more like it breaks things right now. There's not really an error popup)

honestly the best way to figure out how it works is just playing around with them
just as iso said, don't mix them with skinning or it will literally break your project 😅

Thank y'all blendshapes have been really difficult for me because there isn't much about them. But I'm a little less anxious now!
