In the 5.5 version update of “Genshin Impact”, Varesa officially debuted as a thunder attribute instrument character and quickly attracted the attention of players. She dealt high burst damage through falling attacks and elemental bursts, becoming one of the core output characters in the lightning lineup. In order to maximize her potential in battle, a reasonable development route is particularly important. From the priority of skill talents to the choice of weapons, to the matching of relics, every link requires careful design by players. In this article, we will analyze Varesa’s development strategy in detail to help you create a powerful Varesa.
Varesa Character Analysis: The Power and Burst of the Goddess of Thunder
Varesa is a 5-star thunder attribute instrument character, and her skill mechanism is significantly different from other characters. Her fighting style relies on the damage output of falling attacks, especially after entering the “Fiery Passion” state, her output ability is greatly improved. Varesa’s skills can enhance her damage output by accumulating Night Soul Points, especially after she releases an Elemental Burst, which can quickly restore Night Soul Points and enter a burst state.
Varesa’s skill analysis:
Normal Attack: Wrestling
Varesa’s normal attack skills include a series of fast attacks, among which the falling attack is her main output skill. After her falling attack is improved, she can deal higher damage in battle, especially in the “Fiery Passion” state, the damage of the falling attack will be further improved.
Elemental Combat Skill: Night Rainbow Leap
This skill can help Varesa accumulate Night Soul Points and increase mobility by releasing skills to prepare for the next attack. The accumulation of Night Soul Points allows Varesa to trigger the “Fiery Passion” state, thereby increasing her output.
Elemental Burst: Flash Fierce Descends
Varesa’s Elemental Burst is one of her core output skills. It can not only restore Night Soul Points, but also greatly increase her falling attack damage. After releasing the Elemental Burst, she enters the “Fiery Passion” state and deals a lot of damage in a short period of time.
Varesha’s talent priority: Improve her damage potential
Varesha’s talent priority needs to be adjusted according to her skill characteristics, especially her falling attacks and elemental burst skills. The following is the recommended priority of Varesha’s talents:
Elemental Burst: Flashfall (★★★★)
As Varesha’s main damage output skill, Elemental Burst is her core damage source. Improving this skill can increase her burst power and help her quickly recover Night Soul points, triggering the “Fiery Passion” state, and significantly increase the damage of falling attacks.
Normal Attack: Wrestling (★★★)
Varesha’s normal attack skills, especially falling attacks, can cause extremely high damage in the “Fiery Passion” state, so it is also very necessary to improve her normal attack skills. Although the damage of normal attacks is relatively basic, her falling attacks are the main output in the high-burst stage.
Elemental Combat Skill: Night Rainbow Leap (★)
As a supporting skill, Elemental Combat Skill helps Varesha recover Night Soul points and increase mobility. Although this skill helps her battle rhythm, it has a relatively low priority compared to other skills.
Best weapons for Varesa: weapons that increase the damage of falling attacks
Varesa’s output depends on her falling attacks and elemental bursts, so choosing weapons that can increase critical hit rate, critical hit damage, attack power, and falling attack damage is the key to improving her combat effectiveness. Here are a few weapons recommended for Varesa:
Colorful Mind (five-star exclusive weapon)
Colorful Mind not only provides critical hit damage, but also increases the critical hit damage of falling attacks through its weapon effect, which perfectly matches Varesa’s output mechanism. Its exclusive effect can further enhance her damage output, making Varesa’s falling attacks perform well during the burst period.
Sky Atlas (five-star weapon)
This weapon is suitable for increasing Varesa’s attack power and provides elemental damage bonus. During the burst, Varesa can use the bonus of this weapon to increase lightning damage, further enhancing her overall output.
Crane Echo (five-star weapon)
As a weapon that increases falling attacks, Crane Echo can also gain damage bonuses for characters in the team through falling attacks, improving Varesa’s overall output ability. Its auxiliary effect is very suitable for cooperative combat, especially in multiplayer games.
Sun Pearl (4-star weapon)
Sun Pearl is a very cost-effective choice. Its critical hit rate bonus and the increase in elemental combat skills and burst damage allow Varesa to output more efficiently in combat, especially in the short period of time after the normal attack hits.
Varesa’s best holy relic combination: holy relic selection that improves lightning damage and falling attacks
Varesa’s best holy relic combination should focus on improving her falling attacks and lightning damage. Here are two recommended holy relic sets:
Oath of the Long Night (Best Holy Relic Set)
Oath of the Long Night provides a drop attack damage increase, and the four-piece effect can further enhance the damage of falling attacks, heavy attacks, and elemental combat skills, making Varesa’s continuous output in combat very high. This set is almost a must-have choice for Varesa, especially for Varesa who is positioned as the main C.
Desert Pavilion Chronicle (Alternative Holy Relic Set)
If you fail to obtain the complete Oath of the Long Night set, Desert Pavilion Chronicle is also a good alternative. It provides elemental burst damage and normal attack damage, suitable for those who need to use elemental burst frequently.
Relic main attribute recommendation:
Sands of Time: Attack Power%
Cup of Void: Lightning Damage Bonus
Crown of Reason: Critical Hit Rate or Critical Damage
Sub-attribute recommendation:
Critical Hit Rate & Critical Damage > Attack Power% > Energy Recovery
These main and sub-attributes will help you improve Varesa’s overall output, especially the burst ability at critical moments.
Best team match for Varesa: Which characters cooperate best with her?
As the main C character, Varesa’s output ability needs to be supported by suitable auxiliary characters. Here are several recommended team matches:
Main C team
Bennett: Provides attack power bonus and treatment, which can greatly improve Varesa’s survivability and output ability.
Fischl: As a lightning damage increase character, Fischl can enhance Varesa’s lightning damage, making her output more threatening.
Sucrose: can provide elemental mastery bonus, further improving Varesa’s lightning damage and reaction damage.
Overload team
Pairing with fire-attribute characters such as Diluk and Xiangling can trigger overload reactions, further increasing Varesa’s damage output. Bennett can be used as a supporting character to help restore life and increase attack power.
International team
Pairing Varesa with damage-enhancing characters such as Sinonen can improve overall output and provide stronger support capabilities.
Summary: Varesa’s comprehensive development and best combination
As the main lightning C character in “Genshin Impact”, Varesa can cause extremely high damage in a short period of time through powerful falling attacks and elemental bursts. Her development route should focus on improving the ability to increase normal attacks, elemental bursts, and falling attack damage, while choosing the right weapons and relics to enable her to play the greatest role in the team.
