Pre-farming Varesa’s materials in new playable characters in Genshin Impact.

There are a lot of details that are still unknown about her, including Varesa’s design, though some rumors suggest she is the horned girl featured in a silhouette in developer HoYoverse’s teaser. So far, there have only been a few leaked details about her, such as Varesa’s kit in Genshin Impact 5.5, which indicates she will be a 5-star Electro character who uses a catalyst in battle. This same kit hints at her role as a Plunging Attack DPS character who may combine these attacks with Nightsoul mechanics for enhanced performance in combat.

Most Of Varesa’s Materials In Genshin Impact 5.5 Have Leaked

Only Two Items Haven’t Been Revealed Yet

Among the scarce leaks about the rumored character are details about the materials she will consume in both her Ascension and Talent-leveling processes. According to information obtained by the leaker known as Narc1ssus, who obtained the aforementioned leaks about her kit, the majority of Varesa’s materials have leen revealed through the Version 5.5 beta tests, and most of them can already be pre-farmed in case players are interested in pulling for her in the gacha banners for the Genshin Impact update. The leak was shared in a post flagged as “Questionable” on Reddit.

The leaked list of materials only fails to reveal two of the items needed for her Ascension: the Local Specialty and the world boss material. These items are likely unspecified because they will be released in Version 5.5, too, with the rumored new Natlan map area in Genshin Impact. Pre-farming the revealed materials can be a smart move for players to get ahead and be nearly ready once she is released in Version 5.5, as speculated by the leaks, but there is some risk.

Pre-farming can be risky because the materials that have been leaked are still highly subject to change throughout the course of the beta tests. The specified enemy drop materials, Talent books, or boss materials can all be altered ahead of Varesa’s release, for example, so players should be pre-farm knowing that some of their efforts may be made in vain.

According to the leaks, Varesa is an Electro character and, as such, she will consume Vajrada Amethyst stones. These Ascension materials are all part of the same item family and are best farmed from Electro-related bosses in the game. This includes the Electro Hypostasis, Electro Regisvine, Millennial Pearl Seahorse, Tenebrous Papilla, Childe, Raiden Shogun, and Everlasting Lord of Arcane Wisdom. Aside from the several bosses that drop it, players can also transform other Ascension stones into Vajrada Amethyst via the Alchemy Table in Genshin Impact.

When it comes to enemy drops, the leaked list of materials mentions that Varesa consumes the Natlan Saurian drops. Juvenile Fang, Seasoned Fang, and Tyrant’s Fang drop randomly from Saurain enemies found all across Natlan. A lot of them are reported to be needed for Varesa’s Ascension and many more should be consumed by her Talent-leveling process. Like the Ascension Vajrada Amethyst stones, these Fangs are part of the same item family, so players should always use the Alchemy Table to transform lower-grade items into rarer materials depending on the character’s needs in Genshin Impact.

The list also shows 168 copies of an unspecified material, which is most likely the rumored new Local Specialty to be added in Version 5.5, which can’t be pre-farmed, as well as 46 copies of an unspecified item that will likely come from the rumored new and unspecified world boss that is rumored for the next patch. These specific materials will need to be farmed once the patch arrives, so pre-farming the others can take away some of the pressure involved in gathering everything at once to get Varesa to level 90 in Genshin Impact.

Why There Aren't Many Genshin Impact Leaks Right Now

There has been a notable absence of leaks surrounding Genshin Impact lately and, while it feels strange, there may be an obvious explanation.

As a rumored 5-star character, Varesa will also need to consume Mora to be leveled. Based on other 5-star characters, to unlock all of her level thresholds, Varesa will consume 420,000 Mora. Additionally, if Varesa is leveled with Character EXP Materials (the leak predicts the usage of 419 Hero’s Wit to get her to level 90), players will likely have to spend an extra 1,673,400 Mora. This currency can always be farmed at Blossom of Wealth activities, but it’s recommended that players challenge the ones in Natlan, as they can face Natlan Saurians in Genshin Impact, thus obtaining extra Fangs.

How & Where To Pre-Farm Varesa’s Leaked Talent Materials For Genshin Impact 5.5

All Her Talent Items Can Be Pre-Farmed, According To The Leaks

Regarding her Talent materials, Varesa should also consume the Fangs, if the leak is accurate. Usually, the enemy drop materials for a character are shared between their Ascension and Talents, so players may need to farm from Saurians consistently. In addition to that, the leak also shows that Varesa uses the Conflict Talent books. To farm Teaching of Conflict, Guide to Conflict, and Philosophies of Conflict, players need to challenge the Blazing Ruins Domain in Natlan during Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Given the limitations on farming days in Genshin Impact, this should be one of the largest pre-farming priorities for players, as a huge amount of Talent books are required and players won’t be able to farm them every day, unlike the Fangs, for example.

The leaked list also shows that Varesa players will need to challenge the Stone Stele Records Trounce Domain in order to farm Eroded Scale-Feather. Farming weekly boss materials can be difficult, especially because the challenge can drop three different types of items, so players may not acquire what they need during a specific week, further postponing the farming period. As such, pre-farming can help avoid this pressure once Varesa is released. All players have to do is beat the Lord of Eroded Primal Fire in Genshin Impact each week for a change to get Eroded Scale-Feather.

Varesa should also consume three Crowns of Insight, one to top off each of her active Talents. These rare Talent materials can be obtained as rewards in some limited-time events, as well as progression through reputation systems. Lastly, Varesa will likely consume a total of 4,957,500 Mora to level all her Talents, which summed with the previous amount for her Ascension will reach the 7.1 million Mora listed in the leak. Despite the risks, the sooner players start pre-farming Varesa’s materials, the quicker they should unlock her raw potential in Genshin Impact 5.5.
