  • Use Obsidian Codex (4) for the highest damage output
  • Alternate between EN1P and CPCP for optimal elemental application

Varesa is an Electro DPS who focuses on dealing damage through Plunge combos.
Regarding Weapon Choices: Weapon rankings assume Varesa is in a team with Iansan.

  • Crane's Echoing Call: In teams where Energy Recharge requirements are higher, this weapon will perform closer to Cashflow Supervision.
  • Tome of the Eternal Flow, Cashflow Supervision: Assumed passive is not activated
  • The Widsith: At R5 this weapon performs on average slightly better than Tulaytullah's Remembrance.
  • Flowing Purity: This weapon assumed dynamic stacking
Detailed weapon calculations can be found here
Regarding Artifact Sets:
  • Obsidian Codex: It is entirely possible to become oversaturated on Crit Rate due to how much she gets via weapons and ascension. As such, if you find yourself overcapping frequently, consider farming Long Night's Oath.
  • Marechaussee Hunter: Only to be used when paired with Furina. Performs worse than Long Night's Oath.

Guardian Vent!
In truth, the original name Varesa gave this move was the "Invincible Dynamic Heroic Justice Super Mega Ultimate Thundercrash Sky-Splitting Supersonic Boom Kick." Alas, this name proved too long, and she was too embarrassed to shout it in front of everyone, even with her mask on. As such, she changed it to its present title instead.

Nightsoul Transmission can be triggered once every 10s by your own party.
While in an area with Phlogiston Mechanics within Natlan, Varesa will not take fall DMG when using terrain differences to make leaps.

Varesa's outfit. In her eyes, sugar is a sweet, sublime gift from the heavens. Cakes of sparkly pink and emerald green, yummy fruit tea, mountains of candy... These things are the source of all happiness in the world! Unfortunately, her coach vehemently begs to differ.
