CRIT RateCRIT DMG

Build entirely around ATK-scaled Stellar-Swirl DMG using ATK%/ATK%/CRIT. Stat goals: 2,000-3,000 ATK, ~100-135% Energy Recharge, 50-60% CRIT Rate, and 180%+ CRIT DMG with 120-180 Elemental Mastery. Energy Recharge only until the threshold, or skip the Burst every other rotation.

Damage scales with ATK, so ATK% main stats beat Anemo DMG% on the goblet. Her Burst is part of her combos, so keep Energy Recharge around 120%. She only fits Stellar-Swirl teams and rates SS as a Main DPS, but a large share of her output comes from dedicated supports like Odette and C6 Faruzan.

Vesna Skills

Passive Talents

Rite of Spring's Procession

Rite of Spring's Procession

Ascension Phase 1
After Vesna uses the special Elemental Skill Windborne Sword or the Elemental Burst For the Tsaritsa!, she also gains 1 stack of Disciplinary Action which lasts 20s. Max 6 stacks, and the duration of each stack is independent of the others'.
When she has Disciplinary Action stacks active, the Spirit Blades summoned by Vesna will deal DMG equal to (100% + 10% × Disciplinary Action stack count) of the original DMG instead. All active stacks of Disciplinary Action are cleared when Vesna uses the Elemental Skill The Art of Victory or when she leaves the field.
Truth Prevails

Truth Prevails

Ascension Phase 4
Radiance: Stellar Swirl: Vesna will gain the corresponding effect based on the Elemental Type of her party members:
· For every Cryo or Anemo character in her current party, Vesna's ATK increases by 6%; and
· For every character of all other Elemental Types in her current party, Vesna's Elemental Mastery increases by 25 instead.
Stellar Jubilee: Splendid Prelude

Stellar Jubilee: Splendid Prelude

Passive
When party members trigger Cryo Swirl, it will be changed to a Stellar Swirl reaction, and party members' Base DMG for the Stellar Swirl will be increased based on Vesna's ATK. Every 100 ATK she has increases the Base Stellar Swirl DMG by 0.7%. The maximum DMG increase that can be gained this way is 14%.
After a party member triggers a Stellar Swirl reaction nearby, Vesna enters the Radiance: Stellar Swirl state for 8s.
The Grand Circuit

The Grand Circuit

Passive
Holding on Sprint or Jump when Vesna is not in combat will cause her to enter the Coursing state.

Coursing
Continuously consumes Stamina to hover in mid-air. Sprinting or tapping Jump to go higher expends additional Stamina. Including the hold on Jump that triggers Coursing, Vesna can go higher up to 3 times in each instance of the Coursing state.

Additionally, in Snezhnaya (excluding Nod-Krai), when Vesna is switched onto the field while the currently active party member is in mid-air and not in combat, she will immediately enter the Coursing state and regenerate 50 Stamina. This effect can trigger once every 10s, and does not take effect in Domains, Trounce Domains, or the Spiral Abyss.
