Mavuika’s Kit in Genshin Impact
Mavuika stands out as a 5-Star Claymore-wielding Pyro character with unique abilities, including the ability to ride a bike in combat. Here’s an overview of her talents:
Normal Attack: Flames Weave Life
- Performs up to four consecutive strikes.
- Charged Attack: A powerful Severing Splendor strike, consuming stamina.
- Plunging Attack: Deals AoE DMG on impact.
Elemental Skill: The Named Moment
Mavuika summons All-Fire Armaments and restores Nightsoul points to their maximum value, entering the Nightsoul’s Blessing state, enhancing her Pyro DMG.
- Divine Name Unleashed (Tap): Summons Rings of Searing Radiance, which follow the active character and attack nearby enemies.
- Ancient Name Unbound (Hold): Summons the Flamestrider, allowing Mavuika to ride it or glide in mid-air. Her attacks deal Pyro DMG, including while sprinting.
Elemental Burst: Hour of Burning Skies
Mavuika's Burst is unique, relying on Fighting Spirit instead of Energy. She can trigger her ult with at least 50% Fighting Spirit, which can be gained through:
- Nearby party members consuming Nightsoul points.
- Party members’ Normal Attacks, granting Mavuika 1.5 Fighting Spirit every 0.1 second.
Upon activation, Mavuika gains ten Nightsoul points, enters Nightsoul’s Blessing state, rides the FlameStrider, and unleashes a powerful Sunfell Slice, dealing AoE Pyro DMG and entering the "Crucible of Death and Life" state.
- Crucible of Death and Life: This state doesn’t consume Nightsoul points, increases interruption resistance, and boosts Normal and Charged Attacks in Flamestrider form based on Fighting Spirit.
