1. There might be a new set of hexerei artifact for suporting comes out in 6.6, together with Nicole. So i’m not worried about Varka’s damage at all.

2. c6 r1 varka (c6 durin/bennet/c2 venti) vs c6 r1 zibai (c6 columbina c6 illuga c6 gorou)

   440k dps vs 500k dps on average

   I am actually OK with this. Varka can slide into hydro/cryo/electro teams too don’t forget. With the right supports (present and future) you can make him work in a lot of different ways. Flexibility means something in this very inflexible meta we are in.
   Scales really well with attack speed buffs so there might be some interesting builds come out

3. Watch and learn kids, Hoyo are masters of the art called: “Fumbling the bag for a badass/edgy & powerful archatype & its audience”

   Sorry nobody lifts in China, the 0.1% that does seems to just eat roids & looses braincells and the rest 99% are femboys so they dont know how to produce, design and sell a strong character that is built in their 20s to 30s or uses any level of armor (Dehya, Varka, Itto noodle arms.) Also East didn’t believed you could sell a game without bland, spineless selfinsert soy young boy MC before Jin from Ghost of Tsushima popped off there. (At least FFXVI got the memo) and we know how corporate and safe HOYO plays and operates, of course they didnt had the balls.

   Meanwhile the most popualar worldwide consumed genres are still Shonen and Seinen (Kaisen, dragonz bawls, Berserk, dandadan, CSM etc, with MC ALWAYS having some muscle monster or jacked man install/form) – RIDDLE ME FUCKING THIS, JOKER. These stupid ahh mfs are allergic to income… They have immense uncaptured audience of women that would thirst over it and if you make the kits cool enough the drip cool enough and wfx and lore cool enough the people would FIND a reason to make it work themselves. & Wold pull & play that too, i dont get it. If pros outweight the cons why not.

   First his design was mediocre, with ASSymetric half armor leftowers with somehow light brown/orange colors for an anemo, then his element is not fitting the idea at all, and the nail is his kit and VFX aint shit either, so what do we have, a not cool enough looking character to capture the audience that likes the archetype. And not strong enough to grab a wider pulling audience, or meta slaves.

   Story and characterisation are fine, but bro he aint allat in practice.

   • Some popular characters aren’t really that cool or visually impressive but sell a lot because they are the centerpiece of the story and carried by lore. On the other hand in terms of meta some players may pull for a NPC looking character if its game breaking enough. We will see, only time will tell.

4. Off-topic question. Should I get Varka or just wait for Chasca rerun, last anemo on-fielder I got is Wanderer and I don’t have Xiao, and I want something different, especially when taking Imagnarium Theatre in mind.

   • Even Chasca wont doing too impressive without cons/ weapon investment. If you seeking a “meta” Anemo, there is none atm. Skip both & borrow c6 dps from whale in Theater 😅

6. I have been playing Genshin Impact since Day 1, and Varka will be the first character I pull for purely based on appeal (a rare opportunity to play as a middle-aged man in an anime-inspired video game, as someone middle-aged myself).

   Obviously I have a bias towards him, but after following the discourse on him, I don’t believe that he is “bad” character. The only 5* characters that I personally viewed as “bad” upon their initial release were Dehya, Hydro Traveler, and Mizuki.

   I acknowledge that at a base level, he seems like a “mediocre” character. Sigewinne is the closest comparison I can think of to Varka in his initial state.

   —————————————
   His biggest issue at C0 seems to be his lack of a good free-to-play weapon and very limited team options. His best teams at C0R0 is looking to be Columbina/Ineffa Wheelchair or Anemo/Pyro with Bennett, Durin, and Venti being all mandatory teammates to do acceptable damage in end game content. He can’t reliably use Tidal Shadow because Bennett cannot overheal, and none of the other free to play weapons seem to be any good.

   ———————————————
   However, it does seem that investment does solve many of his issues. His signature weapon is looking like to be the biggest increase in damage (relative to free to play options) for any character so far, and his C1 and C2 seem to further bolster his damage numbers.

   ——————————————-

   At C2R1, Varka seems to finally become a complete character. He starts to scale alot better from offensive buffs from his teammates. This makes Hydro, Electro, and Cyro teams more viable while giving more flexibility teammate options for Pyro teams. Ultimately we need to see if there are any changes done to Varka before he hits the live server, but I’m going to guess that his power level will be around late Fontaine/early Natlan.

   This is all before we get future characters that will help support Varka. For example:

   I am guessing that Nicole will be both a shielder and a Hexerei damage buffer. Flat bonus damage (like Shenhe quills) being the best since all of the Hexerei main DPS character do many small hits in their rotation. It’s possible other characters could open

   If Lohen is a Hexerei character he could be a much needed Cyro option for Varka.

   And possibly others.
   ——————————-

   Needless to say, Varka will still be poor pull value when compared against the Moonsign DPS characters (especially Zibai who does better damage than C2R1 Varka when she is at C0R0 with only 4* teammates). However poor value does not equate to being a bad character.

   ———————
   I’m looking forward to when we start getting footage from content creators who have access to the preview servers, and how much those findings match what we have been seeing throughout the beta.

   • “However poor value does not equate to being a bad character.”

     This litteraly DOES mean that.
     The definition is in value.

     Dont get me wrong, Varka is a pull on my end too. Yet I have no illusion.
     His kit on all fronts is underwelming to any other new 5* in the patch. Making him in general “a bad character”
     The problem is, people think Nicole or another character will “save him”, guess who had the same vibe? xiao and look at what happend back then who no one plays now.

     RN, its wiser to just skip him and “IF” Nicole or a 6.x character fixes his issue’s. Get him on the rerun..
     But yea.. its a massive dissapointment for me.

     • Value does not equate to power level, though there can be a correlation. Most carries by default aren’t high value, but they can be very strong. One example is how in Nod Krai you can get just the supports and have pretty good teams that don’t rely on an extra pull. Another example would be if you already have a Nod Krai carry, which makes the other carries’ value drop further.

       Not to speak on Varka’s power level, everyone’s views on him can be slightly different. Someone might view him as plain bad, someone else as just okay, it’s all in the eye of the beholder since everyone has different standards. His value is most definitely particularly low for a carry, however.

   • Glad for you. I like the Dante archetype but, daaaamn… Just DAAAAAAMN… I know all and any gachaslop devs/companies play favourites with their characters, but still not having an ironclad character, and the one to closely being the one in a FK FANTASY SET GAME, is this dude teased since 1.0, however cool he is, with THAT kit. I can’t tell i’m positive.

7. Well he is worse than I thight lol. To bad they ruined one of the coolest chaaracters. Pretty much just basic normal attack spammer with low numbers.
   At least Mavuika can hot over a Mill on Burst and be an crazy on and off field DPS. Really sad to see such a cool character being this bad in the current Meta. Yes you can
   use him in the Spirla Abyss (good luck with 12) and Stygian is pretty much over for him, low numbers, low dmg…
