Varka's Best Teams & Character Synergies
Welcome to our Varka team composition guide and character synergies overview for Genshin Impact. In this guide, we will explore the best teams to build for Varka, including recommended characters, character synergies, and Team Compositions to help Varka reach his full damage potential.
Best Pairings and Synergies With Varka
Varka is a Main DPS that will mainly deal Anemo DMG and mixed with another element depending on what you have in your party. Varka has multiple buffs that rely on specific types of team members. He needs 2 Hexerei characters to activate the Hexerei passive, another Anemo character to get the first stack of his passive, and two other characters that have the same element that can be swirled (so two Pyro, or two Hydro, or two Electro, or two Cryo) to get the second stack and take fully advantage of all his maxed out buffs.
Pyro is the best overall option, so you want one Anemo and two Pyro characters, and two of those should be Hexerei if you want the best possible option.
Venti is a very good option as he will fill both the Anemo and the Hexerei slot. Venti also buffs all swirl DMG, which is a pretty good buff for Varka who deals mixed elemental DMG. However, there are plenty of other Anemo characters that are as viable as Venti.
These are all useful Anemo options for Varka. Faruzan is your second best alternative after Venti, but you need to have her C6. However, those characters will not fill the Hexerei slot, so you will need another Hexerei specific character. If you skip the Hexerei buff, you do lose a ton of DMG. Sucrose is a good F2P alternative for Venti, especially since she is also a Hexerei character. Other Anemo alternatives include:
Durin is one of the best teammates for Varka, filling a Pyro and Hexerei slot as well. He has a lot of synergy with Varka, and also offers very good buffs. Paired with Venti and Bennett they form the current best team possible for Varka.
If you decide to go for the Pyro element, Bennett will be your best option with his powerful ATK buff and healing.
