The Best Team Members For Varesa In Genshin Impact

Taking part in Genshin Impact’s gacha system and pulling your favorite character is only the first step as you have to take the time to build them afterward. Once you’ve built a character like Varesa, a five-star Electro Catalyst user, you’ll also have to work on creating the best team for her.

These swords are the very best Bennett can use in Genshin Impact.

Varesa is one of the characters that you can meet in the Natlan region, and she excels at dealing high Plunge Attack damage. This gives you some obvious choices while making a team for Varesa, and here are your best options.

Main DPS Varesa Team

Varesa was first released during the Version 5.5 update, and Iansan was another character released in the same banner as her. These two characters have perfect synergy together since Iansan can increase Varesa’s ATK constantly while also getting her own Nightsoul Points back as Varesa constantly moves around the battlefield.

As such, you’ll see Iansan being an integral part of every Varesa team, though you can also replace her with Bennett if you don’t have her built. Varesa is an on-field DPS character who can constantly deal multiple instances of Plunge Attack damage by using her Charged Attack followed by the Plunge.

Her Elemental Burst also has multiple instances, but the best one to use is right after your Plunge Attack in the Fiery Passion state as it consumes less energy to deal more damage. Since she deals most of her damage from the Plunge Attacks, Xianyun becomes her best team member as her entire kit is based around buffing Plunge DMG.

Every time you use Xianyun’s Elemental Burst, you can deal much higher Plunging Attack DMG for the first eight such attacks. Finally, Xilonen is another massive part of this team as she can reduce the enemy’s RES shred while increasing Varesa’s overall damage.

One change you can make in this team is replacing Xilonen with Furina. You can use the Scroll set on Iansan to still get its buffs while Furina deals a ton of off-field damage and increases Varesa’s DMG. However, you’ll be losing a lot of important buffs, which will reduce Varesa’s personal damage significantly.

If you’re using the hypercarry team for Varesa, here’s how your rotation should look like:

• Start with Xilonen’s Elemental Skill and Burst to apply the eight stacks that increase Plunge Attack DMG. This works best when you’re fighting a horde of enemies since Xianyun’s Skill can increase Varesa’s Crit Rate by ten percent if she hits four enemies.
• After that, you can use Iansan’s Skill, basic attack, and then the Burst in quick succession before switching over to Xilonen. With her, quickly use your Skill and perform two basic attacks.
• It’s important to execute the entire second step as fast as possible since Iansan’s buff can run out quickly if you don’t switch to Varesa and move around. After all the buffs are on, you can switch to Varesa and execute her combination.

Overload Varesa Team

Chevreuse has been one of the greatest additions in Genshin Impact since she not only revived the Overload reaction, but also brought it to the center of the current meta. If you have this character on your account, you can use the team mentioned above to get about the same, if not more value from Varesa’s hypercarry team.

While reading Varesa’s kit, you’ll notice a special passive that increases her ATK when your team members trigger Nightsoul Bursts, and this can stack up to two times. With three Natlan characters in this team, you can stack this buff fully within nine seconds.

Pyro characters have been one of the strongest DPS units in the game, and this is no different for Mavuika. Chevreuse makes this even better as she reduces both Electro and Pyro RES of the enemies by 40 percent whenever an Overload reaction is triggered in this team.

Another great part about this team is that it’ll only get better as your account gets older since you’ll get more constellations on both Chevreuse and Iansan. The former’s final constellation can provide an extra 20 percent DMG boost to Mavuika and Varesa while the latter’s constellations are filled with special buffs for Varesa.

With this team, your rotation will be fairly simple:

• Start with Mavuika’s Skill and then switch over to Iansan to perform her Skill – Basic Attack – Burst combo. This will also trigger the Overload reaction required for Chevreuse.
• Next, switch over to Chevreuse and quickly use her Skill and Burst before switching to Mavuika again. Here, you can activate her Burst to start dealing high off-field damage.
• Finally, switch over to Varesa and start using the same combination as the one in the hypercarry team mentioned above.

For this team, it’s important to use the Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City set on Iansan to get the 40 percent extra Elemental DMG bonus while Mavuika uses Obsidian Codex and Chevreuse uses Tenacity or Noblesse Oblige. For the F2P version of this team, you can also replace Mavuika with Xiangling, which also serves as the best F2P team for Varesa.

Aggravate Varesa Team

Electro has been quite a non-meta element for a good part of Genshin Impact. The first time it entered the meta was during Sumeru’s release as that brought reactions like Quicken and Aggravate to the game. Any Electro character getting released to the game now has a specific team around this reaction.

However, for Varesa, the value you get from the Aggravate team is less than the Overload and Hypercarry teams mentioned above. Though it’s still enough to beat any endgame content you can think of. Nahida is an integral part of this team as her off-field Dendro applications drive the reaction.

The role of both Xilonen and Iansan stays the same, and you can always replace the former with Bennett or Kaedehara Kazuha. Here’s what your rotation should look like in this team:

• Start by using Nahida’s Elemental Skill and Burst as this lasts for the longest time out of every other ability in this team.
• After that, quickly use Iansan’s combination and then switch over to Xilonen to use hers. It’s important to trigger Crystallize reaction with Xilonen if you’re using the Scroll set on her, but you can also use it on Iansan to avoid this.
• Finally, switch over to Varesa and use her normal combination while trying to time her big Burst damage with Nahida’s Dendro application to trigger Aggravate.

Not only is this team difficult since it’s nearly impossible to always time the Aggravate trigger with the Burst, but it also focuses on dealing one big damage while Varesa’s kit relies on dealing high damage constantly.
