This appended because I say to Dan Wei, genshin front man, that energy recharge sucks, isn't very useful as they think so they decided that mavuika will not use energy and she will be the best character. LMAO
@@dumbledore_loves_anime you could argue Xinyan and dehya, xinyan mono pyro and those funky dehya vape teams, but I agree that atleast xinyan shouldn't count. Regardless 12 is an exaggeration but still... we have too many of em
@@wansper9297 Characters who were designed to be on-field damage dealers should be counted as such. Xinyan is mostly similar to that archetype, same with Amber too actually. Dehya was also meant to be an on-fielder, but she ended up being so underwhelming people just dropped her
@@ZytenEspadaXiangling's application is still way more consistent to pass up. You won't be replacing her in the teams where that's desirable. Also, unlike Xingqiu and Yelan, Mavuika isn't much of a sidegrade or partner, so you're still back to using Bennett with her as well lmao
@@jeweler796 its will be 5 years of xiangling and Bennett being only option and they might still dominate even after the Pyro ARCHON release there's a plenty of problems with that take a look at furina she's a generational character that have strong place in the meta without ruining other hydro characters but in fact enhanced them that's an archon worthy kit not just another dps might as well pull for arlechino instead don't get me wrong i like the character that way i have high hopes
As it looks now, Mauvika doesn't really bring anything new to the table. Not meta defining as Furina was and still is. This was the perfect opportunity to get a replacement for Bennet and Xiangling. Circle Impact 4ever...
@@pontoancoraMoreso a side grade. The only hope is to make Level 100 characters and make Xiangling get the least amount of benefits out of it in comparison to the rest of the cast.
@@kenja0685straight up lying, she does more DMG, gives buff through cinder, doesn't need 300% er, if she gives more application than xiangling then it will buff neuvillete & trust me you don't want that after xilonen
I hope she undergoes as many changes as arlecchino did during her beta. Her off field application should be more frequent so that you can play her as a solo pyro in vape teams. It’s so frustrating to use any other pyro for that And Happy Birthday!🥳
@ just because they overtuned a specific character, everybody else has to suffer. Great. but the thing is for example, I want to play Mualani, Furina, emilie and Mavuika.
Imagine skipping entire Natlan casts to get Mavuika only to realise that she practically doesn't work without Natlan characters especially Xilolen then how screwd you are ??!!
Damn that's actually smart Did they know we mostly wouldn't pull for Natlan chars so they went with this? This is lowkey stupid, I'd rather just have Mavuika instead of ripping my ass off just to make her work Can't say anything for now, we don't know how good she actually will be, but at this point it really feels like I'm getting her just for the archon collection..
Oh cool, instead of using Xiangling+Bennett I can use Mavuika+Xilonen+Bennett. This is very disappointing. I don't care how much DPS she does on field. I wanted the Pyro Archon to enable a variety of different teams, not be shackled to teammates harder than anyone has ever been before!
Looks like Bennet and Xiangling is heading all the way to Snezhnaya super cozy and safe after all. One of the last Natlan pre-release general dreams down the drain, lol.
Honestly, I really hoped she would give nightsoul blessing to her non-natlan teammates, so it'd unblock the codex set for everyone like Furina did with MH. But it's too much to ask for it seems. Still, more DPS oriented Archon IS a nice change. But Mavuika not releasing us from circle impact and being basically a new generation Pyro Raiden is... quite disappointing, not gonna lie. I really hope they'll change at least a few things during the beta. Your content is always excellent tho, tysm and happy birthday!
Combat aside, I was hoping she would "unlock" Natlan characters to be used outside Natlan. I was hoping having the Archon of the region would bring the benefit of the region with her even outside of it so I can still do the funky Ororon/Kinich/Chasca switch even outside Natlan.
@@assemgumar8645 ikr You can mention at least 6 supports/off fielders for ANY element in the game except for pyro For pyro characters the only ones that come to mind are chevreuse bennet xiangling and thoma and the rest are designed as on fielders (no 5 star pyro supports, all 4 stars)
I don't like how her burst is tied to natlan units, every archon could work with some new units, even raiden could fit in hyperbloom, but after we leave Natlan her teams are done
@@nexuhs.Yo... I see what can be unseen. Xianling tied to bennet... a buffer to battery her Mavuika tied to Xilonen... also a buffer to battery her... Hoyoverse, you're sadistic...
Ye she is severely handicaped without Natlan units. This possibly leaves many older characters in the dust and also risking power creep when we leave Natlan. Like who knows how relevant Nightsoul will be in Snezhnaya and beyond.
The two biggest concernes as an early look are the role and how she functions. 1) She is basically pyro Raiden and beside Venti she is the archon that aged the worst because instead of focusing on utility she provides more damage, something that can age waaay faster in this type of games. She does have better utility tho between a general dmg buff and good exploration skills so she might be more resilient in that. 2) She seems very much Natlan focused, like a bit too much. Furnina needs a healer , but a general healer is way less restrictive than a nation-specific character that happens to be the single best support in the game or tied to be.. She is cool as fuck tho and number wise she seems very promising (but it's beta sooo..) but i can't stop thinking why they didn't make her a support, like we already have a plethora of Pyro On field DPS why would you make an archon be a generic damage dealer instead of a cool unique support?
@@rickmel-q7m oh really? i just saw the video but i haven't seen cons or signature yet, but if an early cons such as c1 can make her less team reliant it's already a good thing.
@@andreasecchieroli4945 Exact same thoughts, I love Raiden but she would have aged better if all her value had been poured into being a support. Seems like Mavuika could suffer the same fate. Maybe they think people would have been upset if the two warrior goddesses couldn’t do any on-field damage of their own, but hardly any characters are lore accurate or even lore-adjacent with their kit.
Out of all the archons it makes the most sense for the pyro archon to be a dps cuz Pyro as an element is all about attacking & damaging not supportive like hydro or reactive like dendro, also xiangling stayed relevant for 4 years so mavuika won't have any problems staying relevant for a long time even if she gets powercrept as a dps
@@nk30020 Ironic how one of the best supps and objectively best four star supports in the game is a Pyro unit then, isn't it? Its really not about her being a DPS, but how they seemingly sacrificed her supportive side for it. Also, yes, Xiangling stayed relevant for four entire years. True. However, did you actually thought about how she never recieved ANY competition in the slightest? She is still the best off-field Pyro applicator on the live patch, period. Hoyo never wanted to release another character like her in 4 years
Part of me hopes that she will get a few buffs to her supporting uses and timings, she sounds awkward for timings and her artifacts sets at the moment, hopefully it changes as the beta moves a long
@Toby-oh3ym I'd hope so. We'd all be farming the sets for characters we're rolling in 5.3 one patch later but better late than never, I'd be overjoyed if citlali actually gets a dedicated set. I'm hoping its just not in the beta yet for whatever reason but thats equally as unlikely as not having a new set every 3 patches and not getting drip marketing. Very confusing patch
Honestly Citlali's kit is more game changing at the moment. I agree with everyone, her pyro app should be stronger. If she applied 2u of pyro per tick she'd be better. Also I'm sure they'll increase the amt of fighting spirit gained from normal attacks, because right now its laughable. I also don't know why they didnt inlude charge attacks in the effect. And i actually expected her to give all characters a nightsoul mechanic not selfishly demand that all characters fuel her "unique" soul mechanic.
I'm actually very disappointed with Citlali's kit for one simple reason: she does nothing for superconduct. Why did they make her buff th other 2 cryo reactions (that are completely urelated) and not buff superconduct? It would be very easy to simply make her reduce 20%phys res like they did with pyro and hydro, but hoyo just hates Eula and Freminet I guess... (or they are making phys bad for now just to sell a solution in Snezhnaya, which is also infuriating)
@ I think it’s pretty obvious at this point hoyo is purposely NOT wanting to buff physical in any way. In 5.0 beta cinder city used to buff physical. Xilonen doesn’t shred physical. It’s clear they want to save physical for later.
@@helenadias369 Adding on to what @trickmonster7905 said, they also apparently changed Mavuika's weapon to specifically NOT work with Physical characters. They just hate Physical.
We need a replacement for xiangling for so long. But what did we get? A more expensive, slightly better(or worse) xiangling. Heck i dont think xiangling gonna get any replacement seeing that we are already in the middle of natlan story and 6th nation
I dislike how much of her power budget is in her on field capabilities. Who needs another on field pyro dps lmao. I hope she gets reworked to put more power into her off field/supportive capabilities.
Pyro is all about attacking and damaging so it's makes to most sense for it's archon to be a dps, pyro isn't supportive like hydro or reactive like dendro
They are going to lock that behind the cons. Because that's the rarest in this game rn. Nothing like ripping off your players to make more money. The pain of being a F2P gacha player.
@@ISMythixbut we only get 7 archons bro, 4 of which are supports already, 5th one is a much weaker dps with supportive kit, not every archon has to be a support, especially pyro a literal god of war being a support ? really ? also it's not like she's a bad support, she has cinder city, good enough Pyro application, DMG buff for on fielders, my biggest issue is that she feels natlan locked if they remove that restriction she's pretty much perfect.
Unfortunately all we can do is pray that the CN community dislikes her kit enough to get it reworked. We don't need another on field pyro dps, let her be raiden 2.0.
Hoyo really seems insistent on her as a DPS. It's clearly a business decision to promote more Natlan characters as well. It's gonna take a lot of backfire for them to change her kit. I just hope her exploration gimmicks aren't going to distract too many people from her problems cause that's no doubt what Hoyo wants.
the thing is Mavuika is not even the most popular Natlan characters in CN community instead it's Citlali so I doubt they will bother to riot this time.
All they can do is buff her off field dmg and applications, and buff capabilities too. But her being on field DPS is here to stay, I mean, look at her animations, they can't waste that.
I hope too, but I don't see that happening totally as they need to make money, going with working w/ Natlan chars is a better choice vs giving into old players who doesn't spend money anymore
Thanks for the overview TGS. As a Hu Tao, Yoimiya and Arlecchino enjoyer the main takeaway I got from the video is .... Citlali initial overview please :)
I'm happy with her on field playstyle I just NEED her off field one to be buffed beyond necessary I am exhausted of xiangling and her 300% ER requirement + reliance o bennett to be an actual meaningful character it's been almost 5 years enough is enough
She is better than off field xiangling, her application is enough for mualani, if she gets more pyro application then it would buff neuvillete & trust me we don't want that after xilonen
bro did you watch the video? she deals more damage than Xiangling even offield. the only team that requires xiangling level appliaction is melt with cryo and even then you can use a dendro character to maintain the pyro aure
well that would be too broken for a versatile character and if that did happen her on field potential might nerf to balance it out or you can say restrict it
I am begging they increase her pyro application speed from every 2 seconds to every 1 second, bro every 2 seconds is way to brutal for an archon thats even slower than thoma also i hope she can give teamwide ATK buffs instead of only herself not too happy w her kit overall... Already have and use arlecchino and hutao wasnt exactly looking for another pyro on field dps
Rather than reducing it from 2s to 1s, they should buff the Pyro app to 2U instead of 1U. Triggering her skill every 1s would just be more visually annoying imo.
2 seconds is fine for virtually no ICD like Nahida and Alhaitham. Just needs more pyro aura instead of 1U. Raiden is an awful electro applier over fischl because she applies every other attack not all in her Skill. While Fischl has 2 sources of electro so she applies more electro over Raiden. So being fast is not always ideal.
Not saying I hate this kit, but I absolutely fucking despise the way HoYo insists on making Pyro characters main DPS. Mavuika should not have been main DPS at all until C2 or C6 because that role only makes her irrelevant quicker. Most Archons are niche but they excel at what they do
@@chuflurrina Definitely not more dissapointing for F2P's. We have plenty of Pyro on-fielders already, they could have easily made that part of her being the less relevant one until constellations are unlocked
@@tamas9554 and what about the people who generally like Mavuika in the lore and story and how cool is she and then they see she can't even be used on field for more than 2 seconds after enabling an off field skill? We like our favourite characters to be used on field more often, though I do hope her off field capabilities get reworked and enhanced
@@chuflurrina Nobody would complain about it. Zhongli is a shielder and he is a 6000 year old warrior deity who has battled and defeated many powerful gods in the past. His lore and gameplay identities are completely different. Yet he is one of the most used characters in the entire game, if not the most common. Thats mostly because of his gameplay, Furina is also very often used because of her buffs. If anything, from the comments I've seen so far, its actually the opposite. More people seem to be dissapointed by the fact that Mavuika is mostly just an on-field DPS, rather than an actually game changing Pyro unit :/ (of course this doesn't resemble the actual playerbase)
@tamas9554 but I don't think it hurts to have an archon that takes a different role other than buffing damage and shielding? Either way she can be more flexible if her off field part of the kit gets buffed, remember this isn't the final kit and and version of Mavuika we're seeing so she could be better at release
Xbalanque, Ifa or whoever PLEASE SAVE US! Surely Mavuika is NOT the only pyro 5 star character in the entire Natlan patch right? I mean Fontaine gave us 3 hydro and Sumeru gave us 3 dendro as well. This nation needs to pump out more (diverse) pyro characters.
Well, I was excited for Mavuika and have been saving for a little while. But I don’t have any other Natlan characters to play with her, because I’ve been saving for f’n Mavuika (I did go for Xilonen but lost 50/50). And I wanted Archon Bennett, not Pyro Raiden.
@ I have her, of course, but does she make sense on a team with Mavuika? I’m legitimately asking because I don’t really remember her role that well. I played Kachina three times in the overworld, said, “huh, pretty neat for exploration,” left her at level 20, and never used her again.
@@games-dankachina is just a cinder city bot, but cinder city is busted so she’ll be a good teammate for a main dps Mauvika if you’re not going for Citlali
@@akamistify Ah okay. If I pull Mavuika, and despite being annoyed at the moment she’s still very cool so I probably will, maybe I’ll use Kachina until I get Xilonen, who I’m definitely pulling on her rerun.
@@mauronoacontaldomurgia8476 She has the same res shred but only to pyro and hydro. But she can also use cinder city for 40% more dmg bonus to those elements as well as cryo, and has a nuke burst. Overall she'll be much better than zhongli in most teams that he is typically used in.
I was super excited for her, she's my favorite character from Natlan, but they made her not work with superconduct for NO reason!!!! I thought she would be a superconduct suport because of her colour scheme, but hoyo hates phys so we'll have to wait until Snezhnaya for a Eula buff
@@helenadias369 I think what they were doing, when you consider all the natlan characters so far, is making natlan characters heavily focused on pyro-related reactions. Superconduct would've been cool too but you can tell they wanted her to be a melt/vape support bc of natlan.
I think this is the first time a character can release broken and still disappoint people. We really REALLY don't need more pyro dps. I like the bike stuff with the combos but i wish she was more focused on the support aspect. No artifact set in 5.3 is also EXTREMELY weird since now theres going go be artifact redundancy between units of the same team, both citlali and mauvika feel like they're missing their ideal set.
Mavuika doesn't need to do that, though, i think her being a main dps makes sense for the pyro archon. they really should just release some other pyro support characters, like it's the nation of pyro but there haven't been any new pyro characters yet.
Agreed. I don’t need pyro DPS #56, I don’t care if she’s the best damage in the game, she doesn’t do anything new or interesting. Her off field is nice, but it’s nice mostly for Natlan characters, none of the cryo characters other then Ganyu can use her as solo pyro app(same with hydro except for Mualani) so you’re pretty much left in the same spot, needing a burning core, at which point her off field isn’t that much of a breakaway from any other pyro off field to really make much of a difference in almost any burning core team.
Every pyro character till now (4* or 5*) have been designed as an on field dps, the only pyro supports that come to my mind are chevreuse thoma bennet and xiangling Mavuika being an off field dps + buffer would have been fine lore wise She helped her people in the last battle by giving air support
Let's not forget that all Pyro supports aside from Bennett and Chevreuse are kinda mid as of now. Dehya does not really give away any buffs in her inherent kit and needs supplemental aid for her pyro application Bennett and Chevreuse have absolutely no application off field despite their buffs Xinyan's application and shield are too situational to be ideal Thoma's pyro application is meh in reverse melt and his C6 buff is literally weaker than Candace's NA dmg buff Xiangling is just painful to use. We need better Pyro supports and offielders and I was just HOPING Mavuika would do something about it, but nope. Really disappointing.
@@natalienatz1903 dehya wasnt even meant to be a support lol her burst needs her to stay on field And xinyan was designed as a physical dps (thats how much she sux) Hoyo litterally just had the choice between powercreeping bennet/xiangling and powercreeping arlecchino, the latter hurting their sales 🤦♂️ Arle didnt even have a rerun yet and already powercrept, thats how much they did her dirty 💀
Idk man. Imagining skipping xilonen for anyone is wrong. Becoz xilonen is just kazuha 2.0 with so many universailty. I wouldnt skip xilonen even if i wont have anything left for mavuika. Thats how good xilonen kit is. She works perfectly with so many dps.
Something I can't find information on is how many units of pyro she actually applies. If it's more than 1 unit, then in most cases I think it will be plenty. If it's just 1, then I hope to see the frequency a little higher
That applies only to Ganyu though, as Wrio can fully melt his n5c combo with that application alone. If you don't belive me, you can just use Xinyan's burst (with C2) and use her shield as application method, as it has the same rate as Mavuika (1u per 2s). His Furina teams are off the table, yes, but you can use Emilie (for even better pyro status) or Xilonen (for better synegry with Mavuika), as they are not far behind Furina to begin with.
Well, I personally think that, of all the elements, pyro is the most thematically suitable for a main DPS archon. I just don't know if a DPS archon is really that healthy for the game
And makes perfect sense he could’ve had a 5* pyro version of Lynette’s kit that would send xiangling away for good lol, just imagine his cat hats taunting enemies applying pyro and doing sub dps nukes with maybe a team buff
Exactly what I was saying when Lyney's kit was leaked. He should've been a catalyst user. A taunt like that shouldn't belong to a charged-attack dps bow unit that loses HP as part of his kit.
That would ve been perfect, he would have a reason to be pulled :D From game balance and such perspective she should ve been a support, aye. But from like narrative/lore perspective she could not be anything than the strongest dps of the region. Look at that this way: Mavuika is natlans Neuvillette and Xilonen is natlans Furina (so far, the might throw something even crazier later). But yeah i spent half a year dreaming of throwing Xiangling in the garbage disposal. Aaaand by the looks of it she has not gone there fully, but at least with one leg..
ngl really big red flags for me that to use her best damage dealing burst you need a full natlan team or just live with needing to normal attack for ages for her ult... maybe i saved 300 wishes for nothing.
Good thing she is both. She can be a top tier dps for a few years and then retire to a support slot with her pyro app, 90% dmg buffs and 20% def shred(C2) also atk buff if you have WGS.
@MrGhost-wn5bk so you want a archon to be busted at release and get out dpsed by a dps 6 months later. I know her off field capabilities but she should have been off fielder mainly until her later cons.
I was low-key hoping you'd say something that would have contradicted my concerns with her kit, but nope, you mentioned everything. It feels like they need to double the points we get from normal attacks, or introduce more ways to stack them. I don't like how similar her concept is to Raiden's, but it's doubtful Hoyoverse would do too much to change it anymore 😢
@@alexferrier5732 Were the changes related to the fundamental design of her kit and not just the semantics of number scaling or how specific skills of constellations work? Did the completely overhaul her playstyle and gameplay? Did she use to be an off field Pyro support but they decided to delete that and make new animation to change her to an on-field character? Mavuika problem is fundamental to her playstyle rather than anything they could to change her in the beta, cause they aren't going to nerf her main capability which they spent so much time animating and designing, for more off-field and supporting capabilities.
@@Towhomitmayconcern9293 The guy I answered to never mentioned Big fundamental changes, what you on about? Are you one of those that wanted her to be a dedicated off field/support? Cause if thats what you wanted, it's not going to happen. Original post guy said some small changes with the fighting spirits points, which could still definitely happen, things like removing or lowering her nightsoul requirements, or increasing her pyro applications and dmg, or increasing the universal dmg buff she provide, that can still happen. Mavuika doesnt have a fundamental problem like you say. Or since when being a DPS carry is a fundamental problem? Her not being off field DPS or support is not a problem. Or else we can say Arlecchino has a fundamental problem cause she aint a support and so on.
@@alexferrier5732 It is indeed a problem. There is literally not a singe one limited 5 star pyro character that is an off-fielder and Hoyo seems it paramount to make every limited Pyro character an on-field DPS. It cant be understated that Bennet/Xiangling needed replacements, but circle impact is here to stay. They really thought players wanted a region locked pyro Riaden, it's just a business decision to promote Natlan characters and they hope that her motorcycle gimmick in and out of gameplay is enough to distract people to this issue, seeing how there's a lot of people that will just unconditionally like anything that Hoyo cooks up.
@@Towhomitmayconcern9293 A problem? yes, but a fundamental problem related to her kit? No. She will be a very strong carry DPS contending with the best two Arle and Neuv. The Game has enought supports anyways, just as enought DPS, like, Xilonen just came out, that should have eased the thirst people had for supports. My only concern is the nightsoul requirement for her burst, that was uncalled for since I have skipped whole natlan characters just for Mavuika only for her to require them, Big oversight from Hoyo (or planned for making people pulling upcoming natlan characters). Either way, game may be in need of a better XL that doesnt have huge ER requirements, or just cause they are simply boring of XL. But it is not like the Game lacks supports overall, we are swimming in supports too. I would prefer another natlan pyro unit to be the XL/Benny replacement in the future, cause Mavuika was too cool and good looking to just be a support that you would only see for 2 seconds on combat before swapping. I think that carry Mavuika was a good call from Hoyo. Her requiring nightsoul, no, that was uncalled for and I hope they change that.
Hmm I saved over 650 pulls for her but wanted a dedicated e-skill off field Pyro support. So far the only advantage Mavuika has over my C3 Deyha(100% uptime on E) is that her E follows the character (enemies often step out of Deyha's circle). Other than that Deyha is not tied to Natland characters,has interruption resistance and does decent damage with her burst when you need it (at C3 of course). If C2 Mavuika can top Deyha's support abilities I'll consider pulling for her. Also maybe Golden Troupe would be good for her? And Citlali is looking like a more focused E-Skill turret character but my C6 Layla is a pretty good sub-dps already with Emblem and Wolf Fang. What to do...
She buff the on-fielder as well and actually do good damage, but yes, purley for off-field applicaton Dehya still usable. And if I know correctly yes, GT shoould work with her.
@@Wawawawawa750 I have Xilonen on the scroll set though. Can 2 party members wear the scroll set and trigger different element buffs (Xilonen can't trigger buff on Dendro)?
Mavuika is still objectively better than Dehya though. Her burst is costly, but you start with at least 100 stacks even in the Abyss, and it could be more. Don't forget Mavuika gives damage bonus to the active character, that is way more useful that Dehya's interruption and damage resistance, plus she can fully utilise the Cinder City artifact. Still, she is underwhelming as a support. She will likely get her signature set in a future patch as well, maybe 5.4
I can't believe she will be the first Archon I'm gonna skip. (unless she goes through major changes) The way her kit looks now she simply isn't what I want for my account. I will just keep playing Bennett and Dehya with my Kinich and avoid teams that need Xiangling, which is what I have done so far.
bennet + mavuika works even better with Cinder set which provides 40% dendro/pyro for kinich and emilie and massive 50% bonus from her burst. her support ability is definitely better than Dehya, the only thing Dehya offers that she doesnt is resistance to interruption for kinich.
@doublekc For Kinich certainly, but would she also be better in all the other teams where you need off field pyro? Specifically the ones where you would use Xiangling usually. I do like using Kinich but he isn't one of my main dpses, so pulling a character just for him would be a bit much.
@@vanessab6125 i play childe international team and XL's burst uptime is still a problem sometimes with 210 ER especially if you used her burst and the fight ends before you are able to get some of her energy back. Mavuika's E is a 100% uptime of 18 seconds, 9 AOE hits without ICD (as rumor has it) if you have her C1, at C0 its 12s uptime with 15s cd. She probably doesnt improve your clear time drastically but you dont have to deal with XL's 80 energy cost burst xD.
Yeah I ain't using that trash plus she doesn't even need it. Especially at C2 which I've been saving all my primos for aside from accidentally pulling Xilonen.
I hope not, all her buffs with c2 gives her a lot of attack, having bennett's 1.2k atk would give diminishing returns but I guess it won't diminish enough. I really like the Mavuika, Furina, Xilonen core though.
As someone that has C6 Diluc, C2 Klee, C1 Hutao, C3 Yoimiya, C2 Dehya, C2 Lyney, C6 Gaming, C3 Arlecchino, I completely agree with you 😂 This might be the first time I might actually be skipping an Archon. Hope that Mihoyo would make some drastic change to her kit for the better in supporting role, but I ain't holding my breath 😅 May be Citlali would become the true Natlan Archon for the players 😆
Its crazy how 5* characters cant powercreep those cursed 4* characters. Not even the archon. I still like her a lot but being so tied to xilonen def was a let down for me at least. Oh well, i guess i will have to get xilonen in her rerun then
@@Wreckedandruinedand yeah bro they caught me off guard. I never expected the archon to have such a restriction. But its all good, xilonen will have a rerun eventually
So… hitting someone with a motorcycle counts as a normal attack, but punching someone doesn’t… mavuika is just what everyone wanted Dehya to be for the most part 😩
No basically she has the DPS of Arlecchino with a Mualani Burst Got it totally not gonna make 90% of Pyro Characters irrelevant real soon because they are fixed on making every Pyro a DD
she should be able to choose between dps and support imo, keep her current dps mechanics but explore a support playstyle via passives and a new burst mode so that the can choose via like a press/hold version which playstyle she wants cause rn her off field playstyle is VERY underwhealming
The fact she didn't powercreep xiangling is what sucks. She'll terrorise every team until khanriah. I actually prefer her with cinder city and natlan craftable as both can really benefit the team especially off field and if a swirl reaction or crystalize is involved its better
That's why im kinda or more disappointed in her kit leaning more on dps rather then sub/sup (that's why i dont pull raiden tho haha). I wish they nerf her on field and buff her more her off field
Happy birthday! I hope they fix her sinergy with Obsidian Codex, it should be easy if they just instead of making her unable to consume nightsoul, she instead regenerates 100% of the nightsoul that she consumes
She’s looking to have problems with proccing the scroll set for Kinich on the second rotation. The Kinich mains discord is noticing the gauge problem with reactivating the set because of the pyro aura eating up all the dendro. That team won’t be able to run Emilie, if you want scroll on Mavuika.
The main problem with Kinich Mains on Discord is that they do not take Ajaw into theorycrafting. With Emilie on the team, you start with Emilie then sub to Mavuika then unleash her Tap E to trigger Burning ( proc Cinder - 20secs duration ). How to maintain the Cinder buff? Unleash Ajaw at the 3rd or 4th Cannon shot which will leave Dendro on the enemy (removes Burning since over application of Dendro removes the Pyro in the enemy assuming that Mavuika's E stops applying Pyro already similar to how Dehya's Pyro application works ).cSub back to Mavuika to reapply Pyro to trigger Burning again.
Fighting with a bike is so weird.. Not really what I was expecting and really don't like how slow the bike goes for exploration.. It's literally a bike
Imagine hoarding primos, skipping characters, only to realize the characters that you skip is practically required for the character that you want... Tbf, it's still in beta. Though, looking at Genshin's track record when it comes to listening their player, I'm skeptical.
I think my disappointment comes from the hopes I had that Mavuika would be like furina. Furina unlocks the fontaine mechanics of life manipulation for characters of all regions, making the artifacts viable for anyone. Part of me hoped Mavuika would have better synergy with sharing nightsoul mechanics to all teams. Instead, it feels like Mavuika further doubles-down on 'play our fancy new natlan characters or F off', which has been the vibe of Natlan since 5.0 began.
This is so disappointing. There are so many Pyro on field DPS characters already. Might be the first archon I skip despite her looking extremely cool. Probably doesn’t help that I spent the last months since her release investing in Arlecchino.
I feel you. I'm currently sitting at C2 Arlecchino with even more pyro DPS options like Hu Tao, Yoimiya, Lyney, Gaming, etc. Love Mavuika as a character, but she's not really doing anything for my account at this rate. Skipping Mavuika was definitely not my 2025 bingo card.
@@zeckrincuff3159 Yeah I think Furina and Nahida were great in their design because they were so incredibly versatile. Despite having C3 Raiden she is my second least used archon just because there is so many on field dps characters. Furina and Nahida on the other hand have what feels like infinite teams. I really hope they buff her off field presence before release so there is a reason to play her.
Ngl i am happy that ppl acknowledge the underling issue with Mavuika. I hope she gets some tuning done. Or CN bros Yall know what to do yall already have experience lmao
The way I see powercreep is not pure damage numbers. 1)Moving the main part of the kit to E-Skill that don't require energy instead of burst dependant characters . 2)Elimination of "circle impact" skills by those that follow the character or have no range restrictions 3)Replacing On Field DPS with another character that does the same damage with more utility. Those are the 3 main things I look for now
You’re telling me I skipped all the Natlan banners to save for Pyro Archon Mavuika, only to find out today she needs them/Nightsoul to get her burst up. I was baited.
I really hope they make a few changes to her before release, the last thing pyro needed was *another* on field main DPS. It'd be cooler if she had a stronger off field presence, for example adding some kind of extra co-ordinated attack above what she has on her tap E. I'd really like if she matched Xiangling in application, if just to allow me to consistently vape both Mualani and Furina's hits together. That might be too busted tho... She could also be a bit more quick swappy / sub-DPS coded by having a short but intense damage window kind of like how Tighnari or (GT)Navia works. Will pull regardless tho.
What do you think her best artifact set will be when using her as an off field support?(Considering that Xilonen will be using the cinder city set in the same team)
The reason I am fine with Mavuika being a dedicated dps is because of the lore and concept surrounding her and Natlan. My friends and I were talking for years about how even though we did want a 2nd bennett/xiangling mavuika HAS to be DPS because she is the Pyro Archon of the nation of war. Yeah they could have made it so that she is like a general/leader who buffs and supports the on field characters by twice of bennett's burst but I am fine with her being a good ole pyro dps. Claymore one at that too
Damn i really thought that mavuika would be a faster off field pyro applier than xiangling. Bc rn Neuvillette,Ayato and even childe and basically ANY hydro characters can't vape on all hits like pyro characters. Only mualani can vape all her hits. Hoyo making hydro vape such a strong reaction for hydro characters but then they're not making any pyro characters even apply pyro faster than the hydro attacks of Neuvi,Ayato,dps Mona and barbara and such. SMH💀
They released Mualani for forward vape. The other characters you mentioned were never meant to forward vape consistently. I doubt they’ll ever release someone with faster Pyro application than Xiangling.
People already were sceptical of xilonen as soon as they saw she was geo in the natlan teaser, people were doom posting that she was going to be another dehya situation, but I was determined to get her even if she was bad cuz she looked hot, but hoyo literally made her one of the supports in the game 😂
Well, Raiden is the last "Main DPS" Archon, in an element where it is fine because it is not overly redundant unlike Pyro, I get that being the archon of war Mavuika is, so it make sense for her to be a Main DPS however it is redundant at the very end, at least Off-field Pyro without ER needs is finally.
Happy Birthday! 🎉 Mavuika is gonna be gamechanging for a LOT of teams. A lot of elemental reaction teams get an incredible QoL upgrade as well as an inbuilt 40% damage increase from Cinder set. Overloads will be PASSIVELY going off if you had EM Raiden. Some true afk gaming is about to sweep the floor. Also think of the pairings for synergistic reasons: Nahida and Mavuika get to be the best off field Burnmelt enablers; Lyney and Mavuika get to exist together and give Lyney a 40% Pyro buff. Ugh there’s so SO much to delve into. I can’t wait!!
Just make the tap e hit more often. That does not affect her dps potential, but really helps her of field dps and application. Not sure how valuable her burst is in for example Mulani teams thou, since she will get it easily, but not sure why you would use it.
honestly i dont get the people who want her to be a dps just to see it get powercreeped in 2 or 3 patches, support will make her name in the game near permanent, units like kazuha,zhong,,benny etc are still in the meta strongly after so many years just cause they are a support, why wouldnt anyone want that to be the case with the pyro archon??
damn i will be pulling regardless of Mavuika’s final kit since i’m a big fan of her personality/character BUT im really really hoping the devs will workshop her off-field / supportive potential more throughout the beta 🙏 the on-field DPS role is already so saturated for the pyro roster so i really just want to see more role variety…
It’s s crazy how natlan was supposed to be the nation of war so you would expect characters with very combat oriented designs and advanced weapons with intentions of causing death but so far we have: a girl on a fidget spinner, a girl riding a shark, a dude with schizophrenia shooting pixels, shakira who is a DJ, a girl riding a gun, batman, motor mama from borderlands 2 and a girl humping a pillow. This region is cooked. Can’t wait for 6.0
@@shine6942 Same I am loving all the Natlan characters so far. Got Mualani, Tried to go for Kinich but Bow guy with Big Ears came up, Got Xilonen, Got Chasca, Got Ororon and kachina. Will go for Mavuika and Citlali
Happy Birthday! I cant wait to see her constellations, hopefully c1 or c2 fixes the Xilonen issue. I have 315 wishes rn (guaranteed) and Im also gonna get Citlali. I was actually thinking about pulling weapon, but there are some decent f2p ones for both of them (just for shield and a lil bit of extra cryo/melt dmg Im not gonna get Citlali's) Also as I calculated, her shield strength gonna be around my Zhongli's and the duration is the same. (calculated w 1040 EM Citlali and 53k HP Zhongli). Also I think they are gonna be perfect together and I like how they finally went for melt insted of pure cryo or physical dmg. But after that I have to wait for Xilonen, I didnt regret her (just a lil bit cuz of Mavuika's burst), because I can get her later and I want to have fun characters I will like playing more.

Bouken da bouken 👍
using bennet with a high base attack and high base sig weapon, sure she """needs""" him
Looks like Bennet and Xiangling is heading all the way to Snezhnaya super cozy and safe after all. One of the last Natlan pre-release general dreams down the drain, lol.
Honestly, I really hoped she would give nightsoul blessing to her non-natlan teammates, so it'd unblock the codex set for everyone like Furina did with MH. But it's too much to ask for it seems. Still, more DPS oriented Archon IS a nice change. But Mavuika not releasing us from circle impact and being basically a new generation Pyro Raiden is... quite disappointing, not gonna lie. I really hope they'll change at least a few things during the beta.
Your content is always excellent tho, tysm and happy birthday!
You see I would be happy with a dps Archon..... if she wouldn't be the fourth pyro main dps since 4.0
@wansper9297 Exactly. Pyro lacks supports if we compare their amount to Pyro DPS. Mavuika should've been our saviour but here we are
Combat aside, I was hoping she would "unlock" Natlan characters to be used outside Natlan. I was hoping having the Archon of the region would bring the benefit of the region with her even outside of it so I can still do the funky Ororon/Kinich/Chasca switch even outside Natlan.
(2) sooo much. I dont mind onfield dps. having some utility to go with it (THAT ARE UNIQUE NOT ANOTHER FURINA BUFF) would be nice.
@@assemgumar8645 ikr
You can mention at least 6 supports/off fielders for ANY element in the game except for pyro
For pyro characters the only ones that come to mind are chevreuse bennet xiangling and thoma and the rest are designed as on fielders (no 5 star pyro supports, all 4 stars)
I don't like how her burst is tied to natlan units, every archon could work with some new units, even raiden could fit in hyperbloom, but after we leave Natlan her teams are done

So in conclusion, I will not be able to replace Bennett by Mavuika…😢

mavuika herself wants bennet on her team🤣
Bennett being the true pyro archon is no longer a joke😭😭😭
If she were an atk buffer, she would be even more niche. Dmg% makes her work for way more characters
@@francomc9874 Xilonen exists. Kazuha exists. Furina exist. wouldnt all them together just redundant?
The two biggest concernes as an early look are the role and how she functions.
1) She is basically pyro Raiden and beside Venti she is the archon that aged the worst because instead of focusing on utility she provides more damage, something that can age waaay faster in this type of games. She does have better utility tho between a general dmg buff and good exploration skills so she might be more resilient in that.
2) She seems very much Natlan focused, like a bit too much. Furnina needs a healer , but a general healer is way less restrictive than a nation-specific character that happens to be the single best support in the game or tied to be..
She is cool as fuck tho and number wise she seems very promising (but it's beta sooo..) but i can't stop thinking why they didn't make her a support, like we already have a plethora of Pyro On field DPS why would you make an archon be a generic damage dealer instead of a cool unique support?
C1 pretty much makes her self-suficient with the points
@@rickmel-q7m oh really? i just saw the video but i haven't seen cons or signature yet, but if an early cons such as c1 can make her less team reliant it's already a good thing.
@@andreasecchieroli4945 Exact same thoughts, I love Raiden but she would have aged better if all her value had been poured into being a support. Seems like Mavuika could suffer the same fate.
Maybe they think people would have been upset if the two warrior goddesses couldn’t do any on-field damage of their own, but hardly any characters are lore accurate or even lore-adjacent with their kit.
Out of all the archons it makes the most sense for the pyro archon to be a dps cuz Pyro as an element is all about attacking & damaging not supportive like hydro or reactive like dendro, also xiangling stayed relevant for 4 years so mavuika won't have any problems staying relevant for a long time even if she gets powercrept as a dps
@@nk30020 Ironic how one of the best supps and objectively best four star supports in the game is a Pyro unit then, isn't it?
Its really not about her being a DPS, but how they seemingly sacrificed her supportive side for it.
Also, yes, Xiangling stayed relevant for four entire years. True. However, did you actually thought about how she never recieved ANY competition in the slightest? She is still the best off-field Pyro applicator on the live patch, period. Hoyo never wanted to release another character like her in 4 years
Part of me hopes that she will get a few buffs to her supporting uses and timings, she sounds awkward for timings and her artifacts sets at the moment, hopefully it changes as the beta moves a long
Both her and citlali feel awkward artifact wise, idk what the hell happened that we aren't getting 2 new sets next patch.
@goddamnarshia we aren't ?
@@Toby-oh3ym nope.
@@goddamnarshia oh, that's pretty confusing. Maybe it's in 5.4 ? I heard there isn't a new map in 5.3 so yeah ?
@Toby-oh3ym I'd hope so. We'd all be farming the sets for characters we're rolling in 5.3 one patch later but better late than never, I'd be overjoyed if citlali actually gets a dedicated set. I'm hoping its just not in the beta yet for whatever reason but thats equally as unlikely as not having a new set every 3 patches and not getting drip marketing. Very confusing patch
Honestly Citlali's kit is more game changing at the moment. I agree with everyone, her pyro app should be stronger. If she applied 2u of pyro per tick she'd be better. Also I'm sure they'll increase the amt of fighting spirit gained from normal attacks, because right now its laughable. I also don't know why they didnt inlude charge attacks in the effect. And i actually expected her to give all characters a nightsoul mechanic not selfishly demand that all characters fuel her "unique" soul mechanic.
They didn’t include CA cuz of Neuvillette. Vape Neuvillette is another level from the mono or taser.
I'm actually very disappointed with Citlali's kit for one simple reason: she does nothing for superconduct. Why did they make her buff th other 2 cryo reactions (that are completely urelated) and not buff superconduct? It would be very easy to simply make her reduce 20%phys res like they did with pyro and hydro, but hoyo just hates Eula and Freminet I guess... (or they are making phys bad for now just to sell a solution in Snezhnaya, which is also infuriating)
@ I think it’s pretty obvious at this point hoyo is purposely NOT wanting to buff physical in any way.
In 5.0 beta cinder city used to buff physical. Xilonen doesn’t shred physical.
It’s clear they want to save physical for later.

Hoyo really seems insistent on her as a DPS. It's clearly a business decision to promote more Natlan characters as well. It's gonna take a lot of backfire for them to change her kit. I just hope her exploration gimmicks aren't going to distract too many people from her problems cause that's no doubt what Hoyo wants.
the thing is Mavuika is not even the most popular Natlan characters in CN community instead it's Citlali so I doubt they will bother to riot this time.
They already finished her animations there not changing it
Them xiangling power creep leaks got my hopes up for nothing 😭
All they can do is buff her off field dmg and applications, and buff capabilities too. But her being on field DPS is here to stay, I mean, look at her animations, they can't waste that.
Really hope they change her to able to work with non Natlan characters better and also make her apply pyro faster.
I hope too, but I don't see that happening totally as they need to make money, going with working w/ Natlan chars is a better choice vs giving into old players who doesn't spend money anymore

She is better than off field xiangling, her application is enough for mualani, if she gets more pyro application then it would buff neuvillete & trust me we don't want that after xilonen

@@nk30020 XL wins still. Idgaf only for mualani. If shes only good for Mua that doesnt mean anything
I am begging they increase her pyro application speed from every 2 seconds to every 1 second, bro every 2 seconds is way to brutal for an archon thats even slower than thoma
also i hope she can give teamwide ATK buffs instead of only herself
not too happy w her kit overall... Already have and use arlecchino and hutao wasnt exactly looking for another pyro on field dps
Rather than reducing it from 2s to 1s, they should buff the Pyro app to 2U instead of 1U. Triggering her skill every 1s would just be more visually annoying imo.
Thoma doesnt apply pyro each time tho
2 seconds is fine for virtually no ICD like Nahida and Alhaitham. Just needs more pyro aura instead of 1U. Raiden is an awful electro applier over fischl because she applies every other attack not all in her Skill. While Fischl has 2 sources of electro so she applies more electro over Raiden. So being fast is not always ideal.
Not saying I hate this kit, but I absolutely fucking despise the way HoYo insists on making Pyro characters main DPS. Mavuika should not have been main DPS at all until C2 or C6 because that role only makes her irrelevant quicker. Most Archons are niche but they excel at what they do

@@akamistify Ah okay. If I pull Mavuika, and despite being annoyed at the moment she’s still very cool so I probably will, maybe I’ll use Kachina until I get Xilonen, who I’m definitely pulling on her rerun.
Who’s to be blamed for your headcanon of
mavuika? LOL
More excited for Citlali now tbh
citlali is just a worse zhongli with nightsoul points unfortunately
@@mauronoacontaldomurgia8476 She has the same res shred but only to pyro and hydro. But she can also use cinder city for 40% more dmg bonus to those elements as well as cryo, and has a nuke burst. Overall she'll be much better than zhongli in most teams that he is typically used in.
I was super excited for her, she's my favorite character from Natlan, but they made her not work with superconduct for NO reason!!!! I thought she would be a superconduct suport because of her colour scheme, but hoyo hates phys so we'll have to wait until Snezhnaya for a Eula buff
@@helenadias369 I think what they were doing, when you consider all the natlan characters so far, is making natlan characters heavily focused on pyro-related reactions. Superconduct would've been cool too but you can tell they wanted her to be a melt/vape support bc of natlan.
@@helenadias369 same tbh.
Kinda disappointed with Mavuika...
Can't wait for the Citlali video tho!
I think this is the first time a character can release broken and still disappoint people. We really REALLY don't need more pyro dps. I like the bike stuff with the combos but i wish she was more focused on the support aspect. No artifact set in 5.3 is also EXTREMELY weird since now theres going go be artifact redundancy between units of the same team, both citlali and mauvika feel like they're missing their ideal set.
Mavuika doesn't need to do that, though, i think her being a main dps makes sense for the pyro archon. they really should just release some other pyro support characters, like it's the nation of pyro but there haven't been any new pyro characters yet.
Agreed. I don’t need pyro DPS #56, I don’t care if she’s the best damage in the game, she doesn’t do anything new or interesting. Her off field is nice, but it’s nice mostly for Natlan characters, none of the cryo characters other then Ganyu can use her as solo pyro app(same with hydro except for Mualani) so you’re pretty much left in the same spot, needing a burning core, at which point her off field isn’t that much of a breakaway from any other pyro off field to really make much of a difference in almost any burning core team.
Every pyro character till now (4* or 5*) have been designed as an on field dps, the only pyro supports that come to my mind are chevreuse thoma bennet and xiangling
Mavuika being an off field dps + buffer would have been fine lore wise
She helped her people in the last battle by giving air support
Let's not forget that all Pyro supports aside from Bennett and Chevreuse are kinda mid as of now.
Dehya does not really give away any buffs in her inherent kit and needs supplemental aid for her pyro application
Bennett and Chevreuse have absolutely no application off field despite their buffs
Xinyan's application and shield are too situational to be ideal
Thoma's pyro application is meh in reverse melt and his C6 buff is literally weaker than Candace's NA dmg buff
Xiangling is just painful to use.
We need better Pyro supports and offielders and I was just HOPING Mavuika would do something about it, but nope. Really disappointing.
@@natalienatz1903 dehya wasnt even meant to be a support lol her burst needs her to stay on field
And xinyan was designed as a physical dps (thats how much she sux)
Hoyo litterally just had the choice between powercreeping bennet/xiangling and powercreeping arlecchino, the latter hurting their sales 🤦♂️
Arle didnt even have a rerun yet and already powercrept, thats how much they did her dirty 💀
Love your vids! Literally have been waiting for this the entire day.
ooof I've seen a good amount of people who have skipped every single Natlan banner for Mavuika.... yikes.
Like, zoinks...
I mean if they are skipping banners for that long they probably have enough ppgems to get her c1 and beyond
@@Wreckedandruinedand I've been saving that I can get c2r1 and even then without xilonen I wouldn't be able to burst
@@Vanzee9001 isnt her c1 a big help tho? What about other natlanians aside from xilonen? I thought c1 frees her from xilonen
Idk man. Imagining skipping xilonen for anyone is wrong. Becoz xilonen is just kazuha 2.0 with so many universailty. I wouldnt skip xilonen even if i wont have anything left for mavuika. Thats how good xilonen kit is. She works perfectly with so many dps.
the 2 second pyro application is pure pain for those wishing for a better reverse melt enabler other than bennett+xiangling... ganyu mains cry
Ganyu mains can cope with Citlali
You can run ganyu nahida xilonen mavuika
Hopefully that timing gets changed, it's quite a little bit for pyro app, it's early beta too, like early early beta. So hopefully numbers get changed
Something I can't find information on is how many units of pyro she actually applies. If it's more than 1 unit, then in most cases I think it will be plenty. If it's just 1, then I hope to see the frequency a little higher
That applies only to Ganyu though, as Wrio can fully melt his n5c combo with that application alone. If you don't belive me, you can just use Xinyan's burst (with C2) and use her shield as application method, as it has the same rate as Mavuika (1u per 2s). His Furina teams are off the table, yes, but you can use Emilie (for even better pyro status) or Xilonen (for better synegry with Mavuika), as they are not far behind Furina to begin with.

Mavuika is more like a natlan archon than pyro archon. She represents more of natlan theme more than pyro element.
Well, I personally think that, of all the elements, pyro is the most thematically suitable for a main DPS archon. I just don't know if a DPS archon is really that healthy for the game
I mean ofc man. XL is the true pyro archon and Benny is the pyro Soverign
@@trendmadegamer8725 keep coping
@@JackHasegawa ? But it's true. Mavuika Op DPS only unlocks with Natlan(reliably). She is the Natlan Archon as the dude said lol
Tbf lore wise they did say there is no one pyro archon and anyone can take the position if they're strong enough
My take on this is that Lyney should have been an offield pyro support if they were so HELLBENT on making Mavuika an onfield dps archon
Yeah, If Liney ended Benny and XL carreers 1 year ago, nobody would care if Mavuika wasnt a dedicated support.
Seriously 😒
And makes perfect sense he could’ve had a 5* pyro version of Lynette’s kit that would send xiangling away for good lol, just imagine his cat hats taunting enemies applying pyro and doing sub dps nukes with maybe a team buff
Exactly what I was saying when Lyney's kit was leaked. He should've been a catalyst user. A taunt like that shouldn't belong to a charged-attack dps bow unit that loses HP as part of his kit.
That would ve been perfect, he would have a reason to be pulled :D
From game balance and such perspective she should ve been a support, aye. But from like narrative/lore perspective she could not be anything than the strongest dps of the region. Look at that this way: Mavuika is natlans Neuvillette and Xilonen is natlans Furina (so far, the might throw something even crazier later).
But yeah i spent half a year dreaming of throwing Xiangling in the garbage disposal. Aaaand by the looks of it she has not gone there fully, but at least with one leg..
ngl really big red flags for me that to use her best damage dealing burst you need a full natlan team or just live with needing to normal attack for ages for her ult...
maybe i saved 300 wishes for nothing.

"An archon should always be a support or sub dps because a dps is very easy to power creep"
- a random Reddit comment i agree with.
supports are also very easy to powercreep. case in point: mona
on the other hand we have hutao, going strong since 1.3
Good thing she is both. She can be a top tier dps for a few years and then retire to a support slot with her pyro app, 90% dmg buffs and 20% def shred(C2) also atk buff if you have WGS.
Why are people acting like she's only a main dps
@@clown2005 she is god of war open ur eyes and relate archons with the title also
@MrGhost-wn5bk so you want a archon to be busted at release and get out dpsed by a dps 6 months later. I know her off field capabilities but she should have been off fielder mainly until her later cons.
I was low-key hoping you'd say something that would have contradicted my concerns with her kit, but nope, you mentioned everything. It feels like they need to double the points we get from normal attacks, or introduce more ways to stack them. I don't like how similar her concept is to Raiden's, but it's doubtful Hoyoverse would do too much to change it anymore 😢
Arlecchino underwent lots of radical changes in her beta phases, so they will definitely change Mavuikas.
@@alexferrier5732 Were the changes related to the fundamental design of her kit and not just the semantics of number scaling or how specific skills of constellations work? Did the completely overhaul her playstyle and gameplay? Did she use to be an off field Pyro support but they decided to delete that and make new animation to change her to an on-field character? Mavuika problem is fundamental to her playstyle rather than anything they could to change her in the beta, cause they aren't going to nerf her main capability which they spent so much time animating and designing, for more off-field and supporting capabilities.
@@Towhomitmayconcern9293 The guy I answered to never mentioned Big fundamental changes, what you on about? Are you one of those that wanted her to be a dedicated off field/support? Cause if thats what you wanted, it's not going to happen.
Original post guy said some small changes with the fighting spirits points, which could still definitely happen, things like removing or lowering her nightsoul requirements, or increasing her pyro applications and dmg, or increasing the universal dmg buff she provide, that can still happen.
Mavuika doesnt have a fundamental problem like you say. Or since when being a DPS carry is a fundamental problem? Her not being off field DPS or support is not a problem. Or else we can say Arlecchino has a fundamental problem cause she aint a support and so on.
@@alexferrier5732 It is indeed a problem. There is literally not a singe one limited 5 star pyro character that is an off-fielder and Hoyo seems it paramount to make every limited Pyro character an on-field DPS. It cant be understated that Bennet/Xiangling needed replacements, but circle impact is here to stay. They really thought players wanted a region locked pyro Riaden, it's just a business decision to promote Natlan characters and they hope that her motorcycle gimmick in and out of gameplay is enough to distract people to this issue, seeing how there's a lot of people that will just unconditionally like anything that Hoyo cooks up.
@@Towhomitmayconcern9293 A problem? yes, but a fundamental problem related to her kit? No. She will be a very strong carry DPS contending with the best two Arle and Neuv. The Game has enought supports anyways, just as enought DPS, like, Xilonen just came out, that should have eased the thirst people had for supports.
My only concern is the nightsoul requirement for her burst, that was uncalled for since I have skipped whole natlan characters just for Mavuika only for her to require them, Big oversight from Hoyo (or planned for making people pulling upcoming natlan characters).
Either way, game may be in need of a better XL that doesnt have huge ER requirements, or just cause they are simply boring of XL. But it is not like the Game lacks supports overall, we are swimming in supports too.
I would prefer another natlan pyro unit to be the XL/Benny replacement in the future, cause Mavuika was too cool and good looking to just be a support that you would only see for 2 seconds on combat before swapping. I think that carry Mavuika was a good call from Hoyo. Her requiring nightsoul, no, that was uncalled for and I hope they change that.
Hmm I saved over 650 pulls for her but wanted a dedicated e-skill off field Pyro support. So far the only advantage Mavuika has over my C3 Deyha(100% uptime on E) is that her E follows the character (enemies often step out of Deyha's circle). Other than that Deyha is not tied to Natland characters,has interruption resistance and does decent damage with her burst when you need it (at C3 of course). If C2 Mavuika can top Deyha's support abilities I'll consider pulling for her. Also maybe Golden Troupe would be good for her?
And Citlali is looking like a more focused E-Skill turret character but my C6 Layla is a pretty good sub-dps already with Emblem and Wolf Fang.
What to do...
She buff the on-fielder as well and actually do good damage, but yes, purley for off-field applicaton Dehya still usable. And if I know correctly yes, GT shoould work with her.
mavuika can wear scroll set, and that damage amp for the carry should be better than golden troupe's personal dmg increase
@@Wawawawawa750 I have Xilonen on the scroll set though. Can 2 party members wear the scroll set and trigger different element buffs (Xilonen can't trigger buff on Dendro)?
Mavuika is still objectively better than Dehya though. Her burst is costly, but you start with at least 100 stacks even in the Abyss, and it could be more. Don't forget Mavuika gives damage bonus to the active character, that is way more useful that Dehya's interruption and damage resistance, plus she can fully utilise the Cinder City artifact.
Still, she is underwhelming as a support. She will likely get her signature set in a future patch as well, maybe 5.4
@@Marc-w1f5x Yes, you can trigger different ones, you just not stack the same type of buffs.
I can't believe she will be the first Archon I'm gonna skip. (unless she goes through major changes) The way her kit looks now she simply isn't what I want for my account. I will just keep playing Bennett and Dehya with my Kinich and avoid teams that need Xiangling, which is what I have done so far.
bennet + mavuika works even better with Cinder set which provides 40% dendro/pyro for kinich and emilie and massive 50% bonus from her burst. her support ability is definitely better than Dehya, the only thing Dehya offers that she doesnt is resistance to interruption for kinich.
@doublekc For Kinich certainly, but would she also be better in all the other teams where you need off field pyro? Specifically the ones where you would use Xiangling usually. I do like using Kinich but he isn't one of my main dpses, so pulling a character just for him would be a bit much.
@@doublekc Specifically, I would like to play Childe without Xiangling.
@@vanessab6125 i play childe international team and XL's burst uptime is still a problem sometimes with 210 ER especially if you used her burst and the fight ends before you are able to get some of her energy back. Mavuika's E is a 100% uptime of 18 seconds, 9 AOE hits without ICD (as rumor has it) if you have her C1, at C0 its 12s uptime with 15s cd. She probably doesnt improve your clear time drastically but you dont have to deal with XL's 80 energy cost burst xD.
oh and you can use her burst while waiting on childe's E to cooldown. i think she's worth a pull, at least c0, just my 2cents. cheers.
Mavuika moves WAY too much for yall to be acting like she even gets 60% of Bennet’s buff uptime.
Yeah I ain't using that trash plus she doesn't even need it. Especially at C2 which I've been saving all my primos for aside from accidentally pulling Xilonen.
The buff lingers for 2ish seconds 🤓
And yet he's still gonna be her best option for dmg ☠️
I hope not, all her buffs with c2 gives her a lot of attack, having bennett's 1.2k atk would give diminishing returns but I guess it won't diminish enough. I really like the Mavuika, Furina, Xilonen core though.
why would you even use bennet with her
If this is the final kit, then Bennett officially become the pyro archon in the end of natlan's archon quest.
Maybe the one throwing rocks at bennett wasn't zhongli after all, it was mavuika trying to reclaim her throne as the pyro archon.
I'll be passing as the last thing i need is another pyro dps. Best of luck to those pulling though!
Honestly looking like the right choice. Hoyoverse are some dumb SOBs
As someone that has C6 Diluc, C2 Klee, C1 Hutao, C3 Yoimiya, C2 Dehya, C2 Lyney, C6 Gaming, C3 Arlecchino, I completely agree with you 😂
This might be the first time I might actually be skipping an Archon. Hope that Mihoyo would make some drastic change to her kit for the better in supporting role, but I ain't holding my breath 😅

@@nk30020thats not the point
@@nk30020the point was that they keep making pyro DPS chars
she should be able to choose between dps and support imo, keep her current dps mechanics but explore a support playstyle via passives and a new burst mode so that the can choose via like a press/hold version which playstyle she wants cause rn her off field playstyle is VERY underwhealming
that's actually so cringe that she requires other natlan characters (specifically xilonen) to function. Previous archons are all very flexibile
Literally have been waiting for this the entire dayyy. Love your vids.
very nice explanation, hope they fix her use of Codex
Happy birthday too !
For me, who's going to get Neuvillette, it's a relief that Mavuika isn't the support I wanted.
The fact she didn't powercreep xiangling is what sucks. She'll terrorise every team until khanriah. I actually prefer her with cinder city and natlan craftable as both can really benefit the team especially off field and if a swirl reaction or crystalize is involved its better
Who cares she's still better and more flexible to build. Maybe I don't want Pyro off field anymore if vape and melt have shitty characters to use.
yeah i hope they nerf her on field power to buff her off field
@@shelter3408that's not how it works they can just buff the off field capabilities without nerfing the on field capabilities
She powercreeps her a LOT. Your just too dumb to see. Her app isnt a burst and does buffs too.
Its actually insane how many people who thinks she isn't better than Xiangling 😂
That's why im kinda or more disappointed in her kit leaning more on dps rather then sub/sup (that's why i dont pull raiden tho haha). I wish they nerf her on field and buff her more her off field
As someone who never built Xiangling with the excuse of waiting for the pyro archon this is devastating
Thank you for the video. You're the only TC cc that I trust who truly knows what he is talking about
Happy birthday!
I hope they fix her sinergy with Obsidian Codex, it should be easy if they just instead of making her unable to consume nightsoul, she instead regenerates 100% of the nightsoul that she consumes
she is basically inferno rider from wuwa
She’s looking to have problems with proccing the scroll set for Kinich on the second rotation. The Kinich mains discord is noticing the gauge problem with reactivating the set because of the pyro aura eating up all the dendro. That team won’t be able to run Emilie, if you want scroll on Mavuika.
The main problem with Kinich Mains on Discord is that they do not take Ajaw into theorycrafting.
With Emilie on the team, you start with Emilie then sub to Mavuika then unleash her Tap E to trigger Burning ( proc Cinder - 20secs duration ).
How to maintain the Cinder buff? Unleash Ajaw at the 3rd or 4th Cannon shot which will leave Dendro on the enemy (removes Burning since over application of Dendro removes the Pyro in the enemy assuming that Mavuika's E stops applying Pyro already similar to how Dehya's Pyro application works ).cSub back to Mavuika to reapply Pyro to trigger Burning again.
Fighting with a bike is so weird.. Not really what I was expecting and really don't like how slow the bike goes for exploration.. It's literally a bike
Imagine hoarding primos, skipping characters, only to realize the characters that you skip is practically required for the character that you want...
Tbf, it's still in beta. Though, looking at Genshin's track record when it comes to listening their player, I'm skeptical.
I think my disappointment comes from the hopes I had that Mavuika would be like furina.
Furina unlocks the fontaine mechanics of life manipulation for characters of all regions, making the artifacts viable for anyone.
Part of me hoped Mavuika would have better synergy with sharing nightsoul mechanics to all teams. Instead, it feels like Mavuika further doubles-down on 'play our fancy new natlan characters or F off', which has been the vibe of Natlan since 5.0 began.
not only that. the Natlan cast is the worst looking so far so I might actually skip it entirely
@@miscellaneous7777yea, same here, im not that big on Natlan characters designs either
yeah, maybe furina was just too good
Happy birthday! Zajef said it was your birthday on twitch so blame him if its not lol
This is so disappointing. There are so many Pyro on field DPS characters already. Might be the first archon I skip despite her looking extremely cool. Probably doesn’t help that I spent the last months since her release investing in Arlecchino.
I feel you. I'm currently sitting at C2 Arlecchino with even more pyro DPS options like Hu Tao, Yoimiya, Lyney, Gaming, etc. Love Mavuika as a character, but she's not really doing anything for my account at this rate. Skipping Mavuika was definitely not my 2025 bingo card.
@@zeckrincuff3159 Yeah I think Furina and Nahida were great in their design because they were so incredibly versatile.

2)Elimination of "circle impact" skills by those that follow the character or have no range restrictions
3)Replacing On Field DPS with another character that does the same damage with more utility.

whenever new character releases i am waiting impatiently for your video 🤓

To be fair, the only Archon that makes total sense being a DPS is the Pyro one, goes way more with the theme of the element. And Happy Birthday, TGS!
Happy Birthday tgs !!!!
Italian King has delivered as promised..also Happy bday !
It seems like she is skippable 😢. I'm gonna go with Citlali instead
I really hope they make a few changes to her before release, the last thing pyro needed was *another* on field main DPS. It'd be cooler if she had a stronger off field presence, for example adding some kind of extra co-ordinated attack above what she has on her tap E. I'd really like if she matched Xiangling in application, if just to allow me to consistently vape both Mualani and Furina's hits together. That might be too busted tho... She could also be a bit more quick swappy / sub-DPS coded by having a short but intense damage window kind of like how Tighnari or (GT)Navia works. Will pull regardless tho.
HBD TGS🎉!!
we wanted benny and xianling replacement instead we got another pair that are glued to each other yay...
What do you think her best artifact set will be when using her as an off field support?(Considering that Xilonen will be using the cinder city set in the same team)
The reason I am fine with Mavuika being a dedicated dps is because of the lore and concept surrounding her and Natlan.
My friends and I were talking for years about how even though we did want a 2nd bennett/xiangling mavuika HAS to be DPS because she is the Pyro Archon of the nation of war. Yeah they could have made it so that she is like a general/leader who buffs and supports the on field characters by twice of bennett's burst but I am fine with her being a good ole pyro dps. Claymore one at that too
all i need is emilie rerun for my kinich team
kinich mavuika emilie bennett will be pog team, i can't wait to try it
This kit is honestly so depressingly disappointing compared to furina's, really hope she gets some big changes
Damn i really thought that mavuika would be a faster off field pyro applier than xiangling. Bc rn Neuvillette,Ayato and even childe and basically ANY hydro characters can't vape on all hits like pyro characters. Only mualani can vape all her hits. Hoyo making hydro vape such a strong reaction for hydro characters but then they're not making any pyro characters even apply pyro faster than the hydro attacks of Neuvi,Ayato,dps Mona and barbara and such. SMH💀
Neuvillete doesn't need another buff, I'm sick of him
Why the fk Neuvillette needs to vape bro? Neuvillette doesn't need another buff.
They released Mualani for forward vape. The other characters you mentioned were never meant to forward vape consistently.
I doubt they’ll ever release someone with faster Pyro application than Xiangling.
Saw Xilonen's design and vowed to pull her ASAP, my thirst has been rewarded!
People already were sceptical of xilonen as soon as they saw she was geo in the natlan teaser, people were doom posting that she was going to be another dehya situation, but I was determined to get her even if she was bad cuz she looked hot, but hoyo literally made her one of the supports in the game 😂
@@nk30020 lmao I know right, how lucky is that
Same
C2'd her so I'd never bench her. Looks like it was a good decision afterall
Well, Raiden is the last "Main DPS" Archon, in an element where it is fine because it is not overly redundant unlike Pyro, I get that being the archon of war Mavuika is, so it make sense for her to be a Main DPS however it is redundant at the very end, at least Off-field Pyro without ER needs is finally.
mhm, yet still the only buffs she gives are locked behind a burst that doesn’t require er, instead nightsoul points
Happy Birthday! 🎉
Mavuika is gonna be gamechanging for a LOT of teams. A lot of elemental reaction teams get an incredible QoL upgrade as well as an inbuilt 40% damage increase from Cinder set. Overloads will be PASSIVELY going off if you had EM Raiden. Some true afk gaming is about to sweep the floor.
Also think of the pairings for synergistic reasons: Nahida and Mavuika get to be the best off field Burnmelt enablers; Lyney and Mavuika get to exist together and give Lyney a 40% Pyro buff.
Ugh there’s so SO much to delve into. I can’t wait!!
Hope they nerf her onfield and buff her offield, it'll make her more universal and better for more teams
Just make the tap e hit more often. That does not affect her dps potential, but really helps her of field dps and application. Not sure how valuable her burst is in for example Mulani teams thou, since she will get it easily, but not sure why you would use it.

It’s s crazy how natlan was supposed to be the nation of war so you would expect characters with very combat oriented designs and advanced weapons with intentions of causing death but so far we have: a girl on a fidget spinner, a girl riding a shark, a dude with schizophrenia shooting pixels, shakira who is a DJ, a girl riding a gun, batman, motor mama from borderlands 2 and a girl humping a pillow. This region is cooked. Can’t wait for 6.0
So is this good or bad?
W in my case
Cooked
@@shine6942 Same
I am loving all the Natlan characters so far.
Got Mualani, Tried to go for Kinich but Bow guy with Big Ears came up, Got Xilonen, Got Chasca, Got Ororon and kachina.
Will go for Mavuika and Citlali
So the best cast we've gotten since Inazuma
Happy Birthday!
I cant wait to see her constellations, hopefully c1 or c2 fixes the Xilonen issue. I have 315 wishes rn (guaranteed) and Im also gonna get Citlali. I was actually thinking about pulling weapon, but there are some decent f2p ones for both of them (just for shield and a lil bit of extra cryo/melt dmg Im not gonna get Citlali's) Also as I calculated, her shield strength gonna be around my Zhongli's and the duration is the same. (calculated w 1040 EM Citlali and 53k HP Zhongli). Also I think they are gonna be perfect together and I like how they finally went for melt insted of pure cryo or physical dmg. But after that I have to wait for Xilonen, I didnt regret her (just a lil bit cuz of Mavuika's burst), because I can get her later and I want to have fun characters I will like playing more.
