What it costs to finish this character
Ascension alone: 760 resin (boss drops only) · talents alone: 590 resin.
Talent domain: Conflict, open Wednesday, Saturday, Sunday.
A Crown of Insight is needed for the tenth level of each talent, and crowns are not farmable at any resin price — they come from events.
Materials and mora above are exact, straight from the game’s own tables. The resin figure and the day count divide by an average drop per run, which the game does not publish — they are a community-measured mean, not a promise.

Talents
By the Horns
Normal Attack
Gotta try... to do battle like the greatest champion luchadors do! Varesa launches up to 3 strikes, dealing Electro DMG.
Charged Attack
Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to headbutt opponents in front, dealing Nightsoul-aligned Electro DMG and using the momentum to leap into the air.
Plunging Attack
Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing Nightsoul-aligned AoE Electro DMG upon impact. If Varesa is in a combat state upon landing, or if the shockwave from her plunging attack hits an opponent, she will gain 25 Nightsoul points. She enters the Fiery Passion state upon reaching maximum Nightsoul points through this method.
Fiery Passion
In this state, Varesa's Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attacks will gain corresponding buffs:
Normal Attack
Fight like a superstar champion luchador! Launches up to 3 fierce strikes, dealing greater Electro DMG.
Charged Attack
Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to slam into her opponents, dealing greater amounts of Nightsoul-aligned Electro DMG and using the momentum to leap into the air.
Plunging Attack
Consumes all her Nightsoul points and slams down on the ground from mid-air, dealing DMG to opponents in her path and dealing greater amounts of Nightsoul-aligned AoE Electro DMG upon hitting the ground.

Riding the Night-Rainbow
With footwork swift as lightning and fierce as thunder, Varesa displays the true spirit of lucha libre, rushing forward a certain distance and dealing Nightsoul-aligned Electro DMG to opponents in her path.
After using this Skill, Varesa gains 20 Nightsoul points and gains the "Follow-Up Strike" effect: Varesa has increased interruption resistance during this time, and upon pressing her Normal Attack, she will quickly unleash a Charged Attack that does not consume Stamina. "Follow-Up Strike" will be canceled after Varesa uses a Charged Attack.
She will use different techniques based on whether the skill is Tapped or Held.
Tap
Quickly rush a certain distance forward.
Hold
Varesa enters the Nightsoul's Blessing state and switches to Sudden Onrush mode.
Sudden Onrush
Continuously consumes Nightsoul points. In this state, Varesa's Movement SPD and interruption resistance are increased. She can use terrain to execute flying leaps or consume additional Nightsoul points to traverse atop water or liquid Phlogiston while remaining immune to DMG from the latter.
Nightsoul's Blessing: Varesa
When she runs out of Nightsoul points, her Nightsoul's Blessing state will be canceled. When Varesa is in the Sudden Onrush state or Fiery Passion state, she will always be counted as being in the Nightsoul's Blessing state.
Has 2 charges. When Varesa enters the Fiery Passion state, she will obtain an additional Tap charge of her Elemental Skill and its DMG will be increased.
Fiery Passion
· While not in the Fiery Passion state, Varesa can use Plunging Attacks to gain Nightsoul points. She will enter Fiery Passion when she reaches maximum Nightsoul points via this method, or when she uses her Elemental Burst Guardian Vent!
· While in the Fiery Passion state, her Normal Attacks, Elemental Skill, and Elemental Burst will gain unique buffs. She can also use a special Elemental Burst shortly after using a Plunging Attack.
· The Fiery Passion state lasts for up to 15s and will end when she runs out of Nightsoul points or after she leaves combat for a period of time.
"Right now, I'm my own hero."

Guardian Vent!
Leaps into the air before using the momentum of the drop to unleash a powerful flying kick, dealing Nightsoul-aligned AoE Electro DMG to opponents — just like those heroes of justice in woven scrolls for kids!
After using this Skill, Varesa's Nightsoul points will be restored to maximum and she will enter the Fiery Passion state.
In the Fiery Passion state, Varesa's Elemental Burst will deal a greater amount of Nightsoul-aligned AoE Electro DMG.
Additionally, she will briefly activate Apex Drive after using a Plunging Attack while in her Fiery Passion state.
Apex Drive
Increases Varesa's interruption resistance. While affected by Apex Drive, Varesa can ignore her Elemental Burst CD and consume less Energy to use her special Elemental Burst, "Guardian Vent: Volcano Kablam": This causes her to use the especially powerful Plunging Attack, the "Thunderous Tornado Eruption," which deals Nightsoul-aligned AoE Electro DMG upon landing before causing her to exit Apex Drive. This DMG is considered Plunging Attack DMG.
Varesa will exit Apex Drive after using her Elemental Skill.
In truth, the original name Varesa gave this move was the "Invincible Dynamic Heroic Justice Super Mega Ultimate Thundercrash Sky-Splitting Supersonic Boom Kick." Alas, this name proved too long, and she was too embarrassed to shout it in front of everyone, even with her mask on. As such, she changed it to its present title instead.

Weapons and artifacts
UNSURE This is not a tier list and not community guidance — this product has neither. It is a mechanical shortlist, and the rule is printed so you can check it: Catalysts of 4★ and above whose secondary stat is one this character’s ascension stat scales with, ordered by base attack at level 90. Weapon passives are not weighed, because a passive is an effect and not a number.

To turn this into a real recommendation section, add a build dataset — per character, the weapons and sets a community source actually recommends, with the rotation each assumes. Nothing in the game’s published data contains that judgement, and a ranking invented here would be indistinguishable from a researched one, which is why there is not one.
Teams
To build a team section, add team data. Which characters go together is judgement about rotations, energy and shielding that this product does not receive and will not guess at.
What is published is the reaction chart. Electro takes part in:
- Overloaded with Pyro
- Electro-Charged with Hydro
- Superconduct with Cryo
- Quicken with Dendro
