Vesna Guide & Best Builds

Welcome to our Vesna build guide for Genshin Impact. Vesna is a powerful 5-Star Anemo DPS character. In our guide, we'll cover everything you need to know to get the most out of your Vesna, from building the best artifacts and weapons to important stat priorities and rotations.

Best Weapons for Vesna

Listed below are some weapons likely to be useful for Vesna. As Vesna is not yet released, information regarding her kit is subject to change, and weapon recommendations are not final. It is not recommended to farm or build weapons solely based on information before Vesna's release. Recommendations below are only speculative.

Vesna's Signature Weapon
The equipping character becomes the center of attention when they use their Elemental Skill or Elemental Burst, and gains different Attention effects: Blazing Attention: CRIT DMG is increased by 48% for the next 10s; Dazzling Attention: Stellar-Swirl reaction DMG is increased by 28% for the next 10s; Radiant Attention: Regenerates 3 Elemental Energy. Each trigger applies one of the above effects, cycling through the sequence above.
Vesna's signature weapon has a Base ATK of 674 and increases CRIT DMG by 44.1%. Additionally, each use of an Elemental Skill or Elemental Burst grants 1 of the following effects, further uses cycle through the effects.
  • 48% CRIT DMG for 10s.
  • 28% Stellar-Swirl DMG for 10s.
  • Regenerates 3 Energy.
This weapon provides large amounts of CRIT DMG, and increases Stellar-Swirl DMG as well as restoring energy. While this is likely to be Vesna's best-in-slot, it is likely not necessary as Vesna can use other strong and accessible 4-Star options.
Whitelake Frostfeather

Snow Swan's Finale

Base ATK: 674

CRIT Rate: 22.1%

When the equipping character hits an opponent with their Elemental Skill, they gain "Lake-Hued Lament": ATK increases by 8% / 10% / 12% / 14% / 16% for 8s. This effect can trigger once every 0.1s. Max 3 stacks, and each stack's duration is independent. At 3 stacks, the CRIT DMG of any Stellar Glimmer reaction DMG caused by the equipping character is increased by 50% / 65% / 80% / 95% / 110%, and triggering Stellar Glimmer reactions or Stellar Glimmer reaction DMG will also restore 4 / 4.5 / 5 / 5.5 / 6 Elemental Energy to the character. This Energy recovery effect can trigger once every 3.5s. Can be triggered even when the equipping character is off-field.

Other 5-Star weapons that work with Stellar reactions such as Whitelake Frostfeather or other 5-Star stat sticks such as Azurelight can probably be decent options to use if available.
7.1 Event 4-Star Sword
-
The upcoming event-exclusive 4-Star Sword will likely be a strong option to use on Vesna. This weapon increases CRIT DMG, ATK, and Stellar-Swirl DMG, making it a decent option to increase Vesna's DMG.
7.1 Gacha 4-Star Sword
-
Emberwell

Starfire Upon the Snowplains

Base ATK: 510

Elemental Mastery: 165

Triggering an Elemental Reaction increases the equipping character's ATK by 16% / 20% / 24% / 28% / 32% for 12s. Triggering a Stellar Glimmer reaction increases their Stellar Glimmer reaction DMG dealt by 16% / 20% / 24% / 28% / 32% for 12s. The aforementioned effects can trigger even when the character is not on the field.

The Snezhnaya craftable Emberwell will likely be another decent and free option to use on Vesna.

Best Artifacts for Vesna

Scarlet Proof

Scarlet Proof

2-Piece Set: ATK +18%.

4-Piece Set: Increases the equipping character's CRIT Rate by 16%, and their Stellar Swirl reaction dealt by 40%, for 10s after they trigger a Stellar Swirl reaction.

As Vesna is a Stellar-Swirl DMG dealer, Scarlet Proof will likely be her best-in-slot. Scarlet Proof increases ATK %, Stellar-Swirl DMG, and provides up to 16% CRIT Rate. This artifact domain is also paired with Heart of the Furnace, making it efficient to farm for Stellar teams.

Vesna's Stat Priority

Sands of Eon: ATK % or Elemental Mastery
Goblet of Eonothem: ATK % or Elemental Mastery
Circlet of Logos: CRIT Rate / CRIT DMG
Substats: CRIT Rate > CRIT DMG > ATK % = Elemental Mastery > Energy Recharge

As Vesna is a Stellar-Swirl DMG dealer, CRIT Rate/DMG, ATK, and Elemental Mastery will likely be her best stats, with CRIT being the highest priority stat, followed by ATK and EM. ATK and Elemental Mastery are both very close in DMG in Stellar-Swirl teams, which could make the best option dependent on the exact team composition and weapon.

Vesna's Talent Priority

Talent Priority: The Art of Victory >= For the Tsaritsa! >>> Vila Blade Dance

Vesna deals Stellar-Swirl DMG through her Elemental Skill The Art of Victory and Elemental Burst For the Tsaritsa!, and therefore these talents will likely be her main leveling priority.

Vesna's Elemental Skill The Art of Victory can infuse her Normal Attacks Vila Blade Dance with Anemo. However, Vesna cannot deal direct Stellar-Swirl DMG through her Normal Attacks. Instead, her Normal Attacks will likely be used more so for on-field Anemo application.
