Pyro Archon "Mavika" Guide & Build for Genshin Impact

Mavika, the Pyro Archon of Natlan, is a 5star Pyro Claymore DPS renowned for her unparalleled burst damage and unique "Battle Resolve" mechanic. As the first playable Archon from Natlan, she combines explosive Pyro output with versatile playstyles, excelling in both onfield and offfield roles. Her kit revolves around maximizing Battle Resolve (replacing Energy requirements) and synergizing with Natlanspecific "Night Soul" mechanics.  

 Skill Breakdown  

1. Elemental Skill (E) – Dual Modes  

    Tap: Deals AoE Pyro damage and enters a stationary state, firing 6 followup attacks (ideal for offfield subDPS).  

    Hold: Mounts a fiery motorcycle, enhancing Normal/Charged Attacks and applying Night Soulinfused Pyro damage (optimal for onfield DPS).  

2. Elemental Burst (Q) – Ignis Imperium  

    Consumes 50% Battle Resolve to unleash massive AoE Pyro damage.  

    Grants 10 Night Soul, boosts damage based on Resolve, and provides interruption resistance.  

    Key Tip: Pair with Natlan allies (e.g., Kinich) for faster Resolve generation via Night Soul consumption.
