Why players should summon Mavuika the Pyro Archon in Genshin Impact 5.3

Finally, Mavuika the Pyro Archon debuted as a playable character in version 5.3 of Genshin Impact.

She is the current Archon of Natlan, the Nation of War. Mavuika wields Claymore as her primary weapon, and her high DMG output is based on her ATK %, which means the higher the ATK%, the stronger she will hit her foes. 

She is also the only character from Natlan, whose skill allows her to freely explore the water, land, and sky without limitations. Mavuika is the ultimate exploration unit from the Nation of War.

Why is Mavuika a must-pull Genshin Character for all the players?

As mentioned above, Mavuika is the ultimate explorer in Genshin Impact.

Using her Elemental skill, you can travel all terrains like climbing the highest peaks, smurfing the deepest waters, and finally even flying to the farthest corners of Natlan without stopping her Flamestrider once.

There are multiple points in Natlan where a character can charge their Phlogiston to continue their Elemental usage. Here are some important reasons you should summon Mavuika in the current meta.

The Ultimate Explorer in Genshin Impact

Mavuika is the current Pyro Archon, and she is finally now a playable unit. Her Elemental skill is unique as it allows her to travel all sorts of terrain that Tevyat has to offer. With her Flamestrider (bike), Mavuika can travel on land and water and even fly high in the sky, ignoring some enemies on the way. 

With her Nightsoul points, she can even explore the regions of other nations without any problem, but as there won’t be any Phlogiston recharge place, the duration of her Elemental usage may vary.

Strongest DPS in the current meta of Genshin Impact

Mavuika is the most potent playable DPS coming into the current meta. Higher ATK% is the main goal of her build. Mavuika prefers artifact sets such as Obsidian Codex, which improves the character’s DMG by 15% and their Crit Rate by 40% for a brief period of 6 seconds. She is relatively easy to develop than other characters, and once you do, she hits like a truck.

Hitting foes with a combination of Elemental reactions like Melt and Vapourize will increase the DMG output more than she can do solo. In the current meta, she is a force to be reckoned with.

Mavuika is F2P-friendly

Mavuika, although the strongest DPS in the current character pool, is very F2P friendly. Her build is very simple and it only depends on her ATK%. Her choice of weapon type is Claymore, and there are lots of options for Claymore that will be able to increase her ATK% or Crit DMG/Rate. 

One of her preferred Weapons after her signature weapon is a 4-star Claymore. The name of that Claymore is Serpent Spine; it’s a 4-star Claymore that is exclusive to Battle Pass. So to acquire this weapon, you need to purchase the battle pass once, which will allow you to select a weapon of your choice and reward you with many in-game resources like Primogems, Hero’s Wit, Mora, and more.

Mavuika’s unique combat mechanic

With the release of Mavuika, a unique combat mechanic has also been implemented in the game of Genshin Impact. The Pyro Archon introduces a unique fighting mechanic, the ‘Fighting Spirits. This new system deviates from the traditional energy-based mechanism in Genshin Impact. 

With this new mechanism, Mavuika doesn’t have to depend on the energy recharge, as her abilities are filed by the Nightsoul points which can be generated by her actions or her teammate’s normal attacks.

This new system enables Mavuika to activate her Elemental Burst at a much faster rate if her squad is made of Natlan-based characters. Her Burst benefits the most from the new system, enabling her to unleash massive Pyro DMG after accumulating enough Nightsoul Points.
