Mavuika is a 5-star Pyro Claymore user with unique Archon abilities, including combat bike riding! Her kit includes:
- Normal Attack: Flames Weave Life: Four consecutive strikes, a charged attack, and a plunging attack.
- Elemental Skill: The Named Moment: Summons All-Fire Armaments, restoring Nightsoul points. Entering Nightsoul’s Blessing enhances Pyro DMG. The skill offers both a tap (Rings of Searing Radiance) and hold (Flamestrider, allowing riding and gliding) option.
- Elemental Burst: Hour of Burning Skies: Utilizes Fighting Spirit (not Energy). Reaching 50% Fighting Spirit activates the burst, granting Nightsoul points and summoning the Flamestrider for a powerful AoE Pyro DMG attack, entering the "Crucible of Death and Life" state. This state increases interruption resistance and enhances Flamestrider attack based on Fighting Spirit.
Mavuika's constellations offer significant power boosts:
- C1: The Night-Lord’s Explication: Increases Nightsoul points and Fighting Spirit efficiency, granting ATK boost.
- C2: The Ashen Price: Enhances All-Fire Armaments, reducing enemy DEF and boosting Flamestrider DMG.
- C3 & C5: Increases Elemental Burst and Skill levels.
- C4: The Leader’s Resolve: Improves the "Kiongozi" passive, preventing DMG decay after using the Burst.
- C6: “Humanity’s Name” Unfettered: Adds massive AoE Pyro DMG boosts to All-Fire Armaments and Flamestrider, granting additional Nightsoul points.
This covers everything currently known about Mavuika in Genshin Impact, including her materials, abilities, and constellations. Prepare for her arrival!
