Mavuika's Abilities in Genshin Impact

Mavuika is a 5-Star Pyro Claymore user. As an Archon, her kit boasts unique mechanics, including combat mobility on a fiery steed.

• Normal Attack: Flames Weave Life: Four consecutive strikes. Charged Attack: A powerful, stamina-consuming attack. Plunging Attack: AoE DMG on impact.
• Elemental Skill: The Named Moment: Mavuika summons All-Fire Armaments, restoring Nightsoul points. She enters the Nightsoul's Blessing state, enhancing Pyro DMG. (Tap for Rings of Searing Radiance, Hold for Flamestrider mount/glide, enabling Pyro DMG during sprinting.)
• Elemental Burst: Hour of Burning Skies: Instead of Energy, Mavuika's Burst uses Fighting Spirit (minimum 50%). This is gained when party members use Nightsoul points or Normal Attacks (1.5 Fighting Spirit every 0.1 seconds). The Burst grants ten Nightsoul points, activates Nightsoul's Blessing, summons the Flamestrider for a powerful AoE Pyro DMG attack, entering the "Crucible of Death and Life" state (increased interruption resistance and enhanced Flamestrider attack scaling with Fighting Spirit).

• C2: The Ashen Price: Enhances All-Fire Armaments, decreasing enemy DEF by 20% and boosting attack DMG in Flamestrider form.
• C3: The Burning Sun: Increases Elemental Burst level by three.
• C4: The Leader's Resolve: Improves the passive talent "Kiongozi," preventing DMG decay after using the Burst.
• C5: The Meaning of Truth: Increases Elemental Skill level by three.
• C6: "Humanity's Name" Unfettered: Adds significant AoE Pyro DMG boosts to All-Fire Armaments (200%) and Flamestrider (400%) abilities. Gains 80 points when Nightsoul points drop to 5, triggering every 15s while riding the Flamestrider.
