As of the current beta, Mavuika's best weapon is undoubtedly her signature weapon, A Thousand Blazing Suns. That being said, her C2 is looking incredibly powerful and at this moment should be the focus of your build over her best weapon.

Mavuika's best artifact while played off-field is Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City providing huge DMG bonuses for the party. It is worth noting that this artifact set does not stack while Mavuika currently heavily benefits from having Natlan-specific characters in her team that may also want Scroll. When played on-field, Mavuika currently has no ideal artifact set due to her current kit conflicting with Obsidian Codex however it is still the best artifact set you can build with her.

Mavuika's Best Team Comps

Mavuika can be played in 2 different ways, either on-field as your Main DPS or off-field as a powerful buffer and scroll holder. Both are currently incredibly valid ways to play Mavuika.

When played on-field Mavuika heavily benefits from having Xilonen in the party due to her impressive Nightsoul generation speed that Mavuika needs on her Elemental Burst.

Mavuika Ascension Passives and Materials

Ascension Passive Explanation
Gift of Flaming Flowers

When a nearby party member triggers a Nightsoul Burst, Mavuika's ATK increases by 30% for 10s.

"Kiongozi"

After using her Elemental Burst, Hour of Burning Skies, every point of Fighting Spirit present when it is used increases the DMG that the current active character deals by 0.2%. The maximum increase obtainable this way is 40%, and this effect lasts 20s. The increase will decay over 20s until it reaches 0.

Night Realm's Gift: Exhaust Mode

After Nightsoul points have been fully depleted, Mavuika will switch to using Phlogiston to maintain the All-Fire Armaments' Flamestrider form.

While in an area with Phlogiston Mechanics within Natlan, Nightsoul Transmission: Mavuika, can be used. When the current active character is sprinting, climbing, swimming, in movement modes caused by certain Talents, or at a certain height in the air, switching to Mavuika will trigger the following: Mavuika enters the Nightsoul's Blessing state and obtains 50% of her maximum Nightsoul points. Nightsoul Transmission can be triggered once every 10s by your own party.

Life Talent The party's Nightsoul Transmission CD is decreased by 20%.

Type Talent Name Brief Explanation
Normal Normal Attack: Flames Weave Life

Normal Attack

Performs up to 4 consecutive claymore strikes.

Charged Attack

Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to perform an especially powerful Severing Splendor strike toward the front.

Plunging Attack

Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.

Elemental Skill The Named Moment

Calling upon her authority over "conflict," Mavuika summons the All-Fire Armaments passed down through the line of human Archons, dealing Nightsoul-aligned Pyro DMG After using this, Mavuika's Nightsoul points are restored to max value, and she enters the Nightsoul's Blessing state.

All-Fire Armaments

Has different forms when Tapped or Held.

Tap

"Divine Name Unleashed": The All-Fire Armaments manifest as Rings of Searing Radiance. The Rings follow the current active character and attack nearby opponents at intervals, dealing Nightsoul-aligned Pyro DMG.

Hold

"Ancient Name Unbound": The All-Fire Armaments manifest as a Flamestrider. In this state, Mavuika can ride the Flamestrider at high speed, or activate its hidden backup propulsion module to temporarily cross various terrain types and glide in mid-air temporarily. Mavuika's Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attacks will also be converted to deal Nightsoul-aligned Pyro DMG, which cannot be overridden. When sprinting, she also deals Nightsoul-aligned Pyro DMG to opponents along her path.

While in the Nightsoul's Blessing state, Tapping the Elemental Skill can switch the All-Fire Armaments' form. The Armaments will disappear once Mavuika's Nightsoul's Blessing state ends.

Nightsoul's Blessing: Mavuika

Continuously consumes Nightsoul points according to the All-Fire Armaments' form. Mavuika's Nightsoul's Blessing state ends once Nightsoul points are exhausted.

Elemental Burst Hour of Burning Skies

Let the inner voices of the people reach the divine throne in the heavens.

Mavuika's Elemental Burst is not reliant on Energy, but instead, on "Fighting Spirit."

Fighting Spirit

When Mavuika has at least 50% Fighting Spirit, she can consume it all to unleash her Elemental Burst.

Mavuika can obtain Fighting Spirit via the following methods:

  • When in combat, Nightsoul points consumed by nearby party members are converted to Fighting Spirit.
  • When nearby party members' Normal Attacks hit opponents, Mavuika gains 1.5 Fighting Spirit. This can trigger once every 0.1s.

After using this, Mavuika gains 10 Nightsoul points and enters the Nightsoul's Blessing state. Riding her Flamestrider high in the air, she uses a powerful Sunfell Slice against opponents on the ground, dealing Nightsoul-aligned AoE Pyro DMG and entering the "Crucible of Death and Life" state.

Crucible of Death and Life

During this time, Mavuika's various actions will no longer consume Nightsoul points, and her interruption resistance is increased. Also, the DMG dealt by Sunfell Slice and the Flamestrider form's Normal and Charged Attacks is increased based on the amount of Fighting Spirit she has when using the Elemental Burst. The Crucible of Death and Life will be canceled when Mavuika leaves the field.
