Varka is finally playable in Genshin Impact Version 6.4, and he immediately stands out as one of the most unique Anemo carries in the game. Unlike traditional Anemo DPS units, Varka does not focus purely on Anemo damage. He dual-wields Claymores and infuses one with a secondary element based on his team composition.
If you build him correctly, he triggers constant Swirl reactions while dealing massive infused Elemental damage. However, Varka comes with strict team requirements. If you ignore them, his damage drops sharply.
How Varka Team Building Works
Before jumping into teams, you must understand his core rule:
Varka needs:
- 1 Anemo unit
- 2 characters of the same element (Pyro, Hydro, Electro, or Cryo)
- 1 Hexerei character in the team
These conditions activate:
- His elemental infusion consistency
- His Swirl scaling
- His Hexerei: Secret Rite cooldown reduction
If you miss one of these, his damage suffers.
This structure is confirmed in the reference material , which outlines his Mono-element + Hexerei dependency.
Best Varka Teams (Ranked)
1) Mono Pyro Varka (Best Overall)
Premium Version
Varka + Durin + Bennett + Venti
Why This Team Dominates
- Varka – Main on-field DPS
- Durin – Off-field Pyro application + Hexerei synergy
- Bennett – Massive ATK buff + healing
- Venti – Crowd control + Hexerei activation
Pyro Resonance gives +25% ATK, which directly boosts Varka since he scales heavily with ATK rather than Elemental Mastery.
This is currently his strongest team in Version 6.4.
F2P Version
Varka + Xiangling + Bennett + Sucrose
Sucrose replaces Venti and still activates Hexerei while shredding resistance via Viridescent.
2) Mono Hydro Varka (High Damage Scaling)
Premium Version
Varka + Furina + Kokomi + Venti
Team Roles
- Varka – On-field DPS
- Furina – Massive DMG buff + Hydro application
- Kokomi – Healing for Furina’s HP drain
- Venti – Grouping + Hexerei trigger
Hydro teams scale extremely well because Furina’s burst multiplies total team damage. However, you must manage HP carefully.
Budget Version
Varka + Xingqiu + Sucrose + Dahlia
Xingqiu provides reliable Hydro application and defensive utility.
3) Mono Electro Varka (Consistent Sub-DPS Pressure)
Recommended Setup
Varka + Fischl + Iansan + Kazuha
- Fischl – Off-field Electro DPS + Hexerei synergy
- Kazuha – Anemo shred + damage boost
- Iansan – Additional Electro presence
Electro teams feel stable but slightly weaker than Pyro or Hydro due to fewer explosive multipliers.
4) Mono Cryo Varka (High Buff Ceiling)
Premium Setup
Varka + Shenhe + Diona + Venti
- Shenhe – Massive Cryo buff
- Diona – Shield + healing
- Venti – Anemo + Hexerei
Cryo teams work, but Cryo’s strongest units often perform better in Freeze comps elsewhere. That limits flexibility.
Which Varka Team Should You Build?
Build Mono Pyro if:
- You have Bennett
- You want highest consistent DPS
- You own Durin
Build Mono Hydro if:
- You own Furina
- You prefer scaling burst damage
- You can manage HP drain
Build Electro if:
- You like off-field constant pressure
- You own Fischl
Build Cryo if:
- You have Shenhe
- You want heavy single-element amplification
Top Varka Team Build for Maximum Damage (6.4)
Right now, Mono Pyro with Durin + Bennett + Venti is the strongest and most stable option. It maximizes ATK scaling, activates Hexerei, ensures consistent infusion, and delivers reliable burst windows.
Hydro sits close behind in damage ceiling but demands tighter execution.
If you follow the required structure — Anemo + double element + Hexerei — Varka performs at near top-tier levels. If you ignore it, he drops significantly.
Build smart, activate his full kit, and Varka becomes one of the most explosive elemental carries in Version 6.4. Play Now!
