Welcome to the ultimate Varesa build guide for Genshin Impact! Introduced in Version 5.5, Varesa is a 5-star Electro Catalyst character who excels as a plunge attack DPS, particularly in Overloaded team compositions. This guide explores the best weapons, artifacts, and team synergies to maximize Varesa’s potential. Additionally, we’ve included a section on how to top up Primogems for Varesa through ItemD2R, a reliable platform offering exclusive bundles and first-purchase bonuses.
Varesa’s signature weapon, Vivid Notions, is her top pick, featuring a base attack of 674 and 44.1% Crit Damage. It boosts attack by 28% and increases plunge attack Crit Damage by up to 40% depending on her state (First Light of Dawn or Twilight’s Glory), lasting 15 seconds and canceling on dash. Other notable 5-star options include:
For free-to-play players, Flowing Purity (base attack 565, 27.6% ATK) is craftable, enhancing all Elemental Damage by 8% for 15 seconds after an Elemental Skill, with extra damage tied to HP.
Rank | Weapon Name | Base ATK | Bonus Stat | Skill Effect | Source | Rarity |
1 | Vivid Notions | 674 | Crit DMG 44.1% | +28% ATK, +28%/40% plunge Crit DMG, 15s | Wish | 5★ |
2 | Lost Prayer | 608 | Crit Rate 33.1% | +10% speed, +8% Elemental DMG/4s, max 4 stacks | Wish | 5★ |

The Widsith | 510 | 55.1% Crit DMG | +60% ATK or +48% Elemental DMG |
Flowing Purity | 565 | 27.6% ATK | +8% Elemental DMG + HP scaling |
The Oath of the Long Night is Varesa’s go-to artifact set. Its 2-piece bonus increases plunge attack damage by 25%, and the 4-piece effect grants up to 5 stacks of “Radiance Eternal” (1/2/2 stacks from plunge/charged attack/Elemental Skill hits), each stack boosting plunge damage by 15% for 6 seconds. Alternatively, Obsidian Codex excels in Nightsoul’s Blessing state, offering a 2-piece +15% damage bonus and a 4-piece +40% Crit Rate for 6 seconds after consuming a Nightsoul point.
Prioritize ATK% on Sands, Electro DMG Bonus on Goblet, and Crit Rate or Crit Damage on Circlet (aim for a 1:2 Crit ratio). Substats should emphasize Energy Recharge (120-130%) for burst uptime. A transitional setup is 2-piece Oath of the Long Night (+25% plunge damage) with 2-piece Thundering Fury (+15% Electro DMG).

Electro Plunge | Oath of the Long Night | 2-piece: +25% plunge DMG, 4-piece: +15% per stack, max 5 | Best choice | Crit Rate, Crit DMG |
