Since the launch of version 4.7 of “Genshin Impact”, the five-star character Varesa has become the core focus of players’ attention with its lightning element positioning, unique skill mechanism and excellent character shaping. As one of the rare main C candidates among the lightning element characters, Varesa has shown outstanding strength in terms of output potential, skill frequency, elemental reaction efficiency and team adaptability in actual combat. However, compared with other conventional main Cs such as Thunder General, Hu Tao, and Xiao Gong, whether Varesa’s main C ability is sustainable and developable is still the focus of discussion for many players and analysts. This article will systematically evaluate the feasibility of Varesa as the main C of the lightning element from the dimensions of skill mechanism, output cycle, reaction trigger efficiency, team compatibility, etc., and explore its possible positioning and development direction in the future.

1. The skill mechanism gives the dual advantages of high-frequency output and high mobility

Varesa’s combat core is composed of her elemental combat skills “Night Rainbow Leap” and elemental burst “Flash Fierce Descend!”, which together construct a “fast-paced, high-frequency” combat cycle structure. Tap the elemental combat skill to release the thunder element AOE attack, and long press can achieve a surprise attack effect that combines displacement and slashing. This skill mechanism allows her to cut in and out of the battle at high speed, reducing the chance of being attacked and increasing the living space. At the same time, the long press form can also move on special terrains such as water surface and liquid phlogiston, which not only provides combat freedom, but also constitutes a tactical advantage in special terrain.

In terms of elemental burst, “Flash Fierce Coming!” is itself a large-scale attack, and the subsequent “Fiery Passion” state comprehensively improves the frequency of general attacks and movement speed, which is the most critical part of Varesa’s output cycle. Her output is mainly concentrated during this state, so how to accumulate “Night Soul Value” by frequently using elemental combat skills becomes the key to stable and high output. The overall skill cycle mechanism is compact and has a strong sense of main C rhythm.

2. The reaction efficiency of thunder elements is stable, suitable for high-frequency trigger reaction play

Although the thunder element is considered not as explosive as evaporation, melting and other reactions in the current environment, the thunder element wins in high trigger efficiency and a variety of reaction types, which is suitable for team building with various sub-C and auxiliary characters. For example, when combined with water element characters such as Xingqiu, Yelan, and Funina, a high-frequency “electro-shock team” can be formed, which has both control and continuous output; when combined with fire elements such as Bennett, Dixia, and Xiangling, an “overload team” can be formed, and the explosion range damage is particularly prominent when fighting against groups of monsters; when combined with ice elements such as Chongyun and Shenhe, “superconductivity” can be triggered, and the resistance reduction provides the team with a higher physical damage space.

The frequency of Varesha’s thunder attachment is higher than that of many thunder characters, which is an important advantage for her as the main C. Unlike characters who rely on big moves to burst, Varesha can frequently hang thunder during normal attacks, creating a reaction trigger window for the sub-C. Her continuous attack mechanism combined with the attack speed bonus in the “burning passion” state can ensure a high coverage rate of thunder elements on the field.

3. Team matching ideas under the main C positioning

When Varesha serves as the main C, the most suitable team is to build a “dual-core high-frequency reaction system” around her. One of the sub-Cs or assistants needs to continuously provide basic elements that are linked to the lightning element (such as water or fire), and the other is responsible for control, damage increase or treatment (such as Wanye, Zhongli, Xinhai, etc.). For example:

Varesa + Xingqiu + Bennett + Wanye: Build a double reaction team of electric shock/overload, Wanye gathers monsters and increases damage, Bennett provides treatment and attack power bonus.

Varesa + Funina + Yelan + Xinhai: Double water and electric shock system, with strong treatment and burst power, suitable for long-term standing.

Varesa + Thunder General + Kujo Saro + Bennett: Double thunder lineup, strengthen element charging and burst ability, and stabilize the output burst cycle.

Although the main C attribute of Varesa is not as pure as Hu Tao and Xiao Gong, it shows stability and strategic value in multi-target, high-frequency continuous battles, especially suitable for high-mechanism challenges and boss battles with fewer invincible windows.

4. Equipment and relics support the main C position

Varesa’s exclusive magic weapon “Colorful Thoughts” provides lightning element damage, attack power and elemental combat skill gain, which is the best solution for her as the main C. But even if there is no special weapon, players can still choose “Wandering Song”, “Sky Scroll”, “Box Sun and Moon” and other magic weapons with high panel or secondary attribute bonuses.

In terms of relics, the four-piece set of “Thunderous Fury” can greatly shorten the cooldown of elemental combat skills and increase lightning damage, which is the most ideal choice; and the combination of “Gladiator’s Final Rite” + “Thunderous” can further enhance the output of general attacks. In the selection of secondary attributes, critical hit rate, critical hit damage, and attack power should be prioritized, followed by elemental charging efficiency or elemental mastery, depending on the reaction team matching type.

5. Future development and plasticity prospects of Varesa’s main C position

In the current version, Varesa’s main C performance is relatively solid and has a certain degree of ductility. As more characters supporting the thunder element (such as new auxiliary thunder elements and characters with enhanced reaction characteristics of the electric shock system) are launched, its main C system will become more mature. In addition, the combat mechanism of “Genshin Impact” is gradually developing in the direction of “high-frequency output and element circulation”, and the strategic value of characters such as Varesha will be more prominent. Its combat style of flexible displacement and frequent skill release is very consistent with the rhythm of the new generation of characters, and also meets the players’ expectations for the upgrade of character operation experience.

In summary, Varesha has the absolute feasibility of becoming the main C of the thunder element. Her skill frequency, element attachment, mobility and output rhythm all constitute the key pillars of her main C system. In the future, with the support of the new version of the character, its main C route will have a higher growth space, and it is a tactical core character worthy of cultivation and long-term investment.
