Varesa build questions, answered
What does Varesa scale off?
Varesa's Elemental Burst scales off total ATK — character base ATK plus weapon base ATK, then (1 + ATK%) and flat ATK on top. A weapon’s base ATK line therefore feeds this character directly.
What stat does Varesa get from ascension?
Varesa's ascension substat is CRIT Rate. It arrives at the Level-80/90 ascension and is part of the character's own stats, so the calculator counts it before any artifact roll is added.
What is the best weapon for Varesa?
Ranked by computed Elemental Burst damage at Level 90, talent 10 and refinement 1, Vivid Notions is the strongest catalyst for Varesa at 59,103 average damage per hit. The Lost Prayer to the Sacred Winds used by this page's preset panel averages 42,794, 27.6% behind it.
What artifacts should Varesa use?
Obsidian Codex (4) is the set this calculator presets Varesa with, and the damage tables include its bonuses. Set effects that depend on the element of the hit are applied per row rather than as a flat average.
How much damage should Varesa do?
On the default Level-90, talent-10 build shown above, Varesa's largest single hit averages 42,794 — the table lists its CRIT and non-CRIT numbers separately. That is a reference panel, not a target: load your own artifact rolls into the calculator to get your own number.
Do these numbers include Varesa's constellations?
No — every table is computed at C0. Constellations that are unconditional and clearly numeric are modelled in the calculator and marked as such on this page; the rest are listed as text only and change nothing.
How those numbers are produced: the damage formula, term by term, and the weapon & artifact build guide. If Varesa still hits soft, the six levers ranked by damage added shows which multiplier is holding a build back.
