Windbound ExecutionWindbound Execution
Manifest the true essence of Favonius Bladework with absolute power. Produces different effects depending on whether the skill is Tapped or Held.

Tap
Leap forward and slash in one fluid motion, dealing AoE Anemo DMG and switching to Sturm und Drang mode.
While in Sturm und Drang, Varka's Normal Attack DMG is increased, and he cannot perform Plunging Attacks. Also, when performing Normal or Charged Attacks, Varka's dual-wielded claymores will deal corresponding Elemental DMG based on the Elemental Types of the characters in the party, respectively. This Elemental DMG cannot be overridden by infusions.
Additionally, when in Sturm und Drang, if there are Pyro, Hydro, Electro or Cryo characters in the party, Varka's Elemental Skill Windbound Execution will be converted to the special Elemental Skill, Four Winds' Ascension, dealing corresponding Elemental DMG and Anemo DMG. Additionally, Varka can also expend uses for the special Elemental Skill Four Winds' Ascension to perform a special Charged Attack, Azure Devour, that does not consume stamina to deal corresponding Elemental DMG and Anemo DMG.

Hold
After charging for a while, leap forward. The duration of the charge will increase the distance of the leap.

63 responses to “Varka”

  1. 2 weeks left before he gets released, and he won’t last long in the meta. The reason why Arlecchino is still a fantastic DPS is because she is already a fantastic DPS on her own. Combine her with some good supports and you get a beast. Mine still clears everything without much effort.

    The issue with Varka is that he is not OP, but also not bad either. He’s kind of in the middle ground and will 100% get dedicated supports to buff him. But as we know, the endgame in this game is horrible, and enemies tend to get more and more HP%. They are not hard to fight or complicated, it’s just a lot of HP%, and they will keep adding more HP%. It is such a pity to see a character like Varka the head leader and by far one of the most teased characters end up as some mid-tier character. How is it that Mavuika is allowed to do literally anything? Support, sub DPS, DPS, ridiculous “combos” (animation cancels to get even more DPS), while Varka so far gets none of that. As long as a character shows her cleavage, people will hype anything up for no reason. Varka in his current state is just a waste of gems, since you will be forced to summon for his supports to make him work. But we still have 2 weeks… who knows, maybe he will get some decent buffs that will put him on par with Flins or Nefer.teams.

    • I doubt Varka will ever be on par with Flins or Nefer unless we get lunar swirl. The reason Nod-Krai dpses are so good is because they have their own reaction type that has more vertical scaling than 1.0 reactions (since after a point, EM gets diminishing returns unless a character requires 1,000 EM) and dedicated lunar damage supports. As far as I’m aware, none of the current anemo supports directly benefit swirl OR raw anemo damage.

      Mavuika is a weird case, but pyro is probably the strongest element in the game, so I’m not surprised she’s crazy.

  2. As a long time teased character, Varka should break the game’s damage ceiling. Fuck hoyobitch for treating male characters horrendously like they ain’t superior. Dudes funds this game and they can’t even give them the service they deserve.

  3. if hoyo is smart enough, after this guy, especially after lunar crystallize, should mean starting creating new elemental archetypes.
    finally we have geo + hydro, though is quite conditional, but as always : “better than nothing”
    after that, i expect a geo + anemo and geo + dendro in the future, same thing with cryo.
    there’s no reason to ignore these combination

    • Not if it means “here’s your dendro-geo reaction, it’s unlocked by this limited 5* character’s passive only, and you are also about to get 20 different enemy types that are much harder to kill without this reaction”

    • It will hapen, in the chase for variety all gaps will be filled at some point. The question is just, when?

      And the rest is the usual: how hard powercreep will be by then? Will the rest archetypes be ass (nilou blooms typa ass)?
