Varesa Overview

Quality : ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐         Weapon : catalyst        Element : Electro

Varesa is the ultimate Electro Sub-DPS you’ve been waiting for. Her Elemental Skill rushes forward a certain distance and dealing Nightsoul-aligned Electro DMG to opponents in her path, making her a breeze to play. And Varessa unleashes a massive AoE Electro application while shredding enemy resistance, making her an absolute powerhouse in any team composition.

 

Talents Priority

A = Normal Attack, E = Elemental Skill, Q = Elemental Burst

As a main DPS, Varessa’s damage output heavily relies on her Elemental Burst, particularly her special ability, "Dazzling Descent:Volcanic Collapes." To fully unlock her potential, prioritizing the upgrade of her Elemental Burst is essential.

Beside, since Varessa excels in plunging attacks, leveling up her Normal Attacks is equally important to ensure consistent damage during combat. On the other hand, her Elemental Skill, while useful, plays a less critical role and can be upgraded last.

In short the priority recommendations are Q＞A＞E
