Varka Materials: Ascension & Talent Guide

Varka, the Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, has been a name since Genshin Impact 1.0, but he finally became playable in version 6.4 (Luna V). If you’re looking to level and talent-up this long-awaited character as quickly as possible, here is a focused breakdown of the materials you need and where to find them.

Ascension Materials

To ascend Varka through his level caps, you’ll need the following items:

• Normal Boss drop: Prismatic Severed Tail (obtained from a new Normal Boss introduced in version 6.x)
• Local Specialty: Wolfhook (found growing wild in Wolvendom, Mondstadt)
• Common enemy drops: Broken Drive Shaft, Reinforced Drive Shaft, and Precision Drive Shaft (dropped by the new Drive Shaft enemy family)

Gather these in sufficient quantities for each ascension phase. You can track exact numbers using the in-game material calculator or a Genshin Impact database.

Talent Materials

To raise Varka’s talents, you will need:

• Talent books: Teachings of Freedom, Guide to Freedom, and Philosophies of Freedom (available from the Forsaken Rift domain on Monday/Thursday/Sunday)
• Weekly Boss drop: Ascended Sample: Rook (drops from a Weekly Boss, likely the same one that rewards other 6.x character materials)
• Common enemy drops: The same Drive Shaft series as ascension (Broken, Reinforced, Precision)

Plan your resin accordingly: farming the Freedom domain, the Weekly Boss, and the Drive Shaft enemies will cover all your talent needs. With these materials collected, you’ll have Varka ready for battle in no time.
