Mavuika skills in Genshin Impact

Mavuika is a sub-DPS who can flexibly switch between dealing damage on or off the battlefield. Her elemental skill allows her to ride the Flamestrider, and deal Pyro damage while on the field, as well as deal damage to nearby enemies periodically when off the field.

With her elemental burst, she deals powerful AoE Pyro damage to enemies and increases the normal attack and charged attack damage dealt by her Flamestrider for a period of time.

Here’s a guide on how to Triple Crown a character in Genshin Impact
MAVUIKA SKILLSDESCRIPTION
Normal attack: Flames Weave LifeNormal attack
Performs up to 4 consecutive claymore strikes.

Charged attack
Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to perform an especially powerful Severing Splendor strike toward the front.

Plunging attack
Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE damage upon impact.
Elemental skill: The Named MomentCalling upon her authority over “conflict,” Mavuika summons the All-Fire Armaments passed down through the line of human Archons, dealing Nightsoul-aligned Pyro damage.
After using this, Mavuika’s Nightsoul points are restored to max value, and she enters the Nightsoul’s Blessing state.
All-Fire Armaments
Has different forms when tapped or held.

Press/tap
“Divine Name Unleashed”: The All-Fire Armaments manifest as a Ring of Searing Radiance. The Ring follows the current active character and attacks nearby opponents at intervals, dealing Nightsoul-aligned Pyro damage.

Hold
“Ancient Name Unbound”: The All-Fire Armaments manifest as a Flamestrider. In this state, Mavuika can ride the Flamestrider at high speed, or activate its hidden backup propulsion module to temporarily cross various terrain types and glide in mid-air. Mavuika’s Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attacks will also be converted to deal Nightsoul-aligned Pyro damage which cannot be overridden. When sprinting, she also deals Nightsoul-aligned Pyro damage to opponents along her path.
While in the Nightsoul’s Blessing state, Tapping the Elemental Skill can switch the All-Fire Armaments’ form. The Armaments will disappear once Mavuika’s Nightsoul’s Blessing state ends.

Nightsoul’s Blessing: Mavuika
Continuously consumes Nightsoul points according to the All-Fire Armaments’ form. Mavuika’s Nightsoul’s Blessing state ends once her Nightsoul points are exhausted.
Elemental burst: Hour of Burning SkiesLet the people’s inner voices reach the divine throne in the heavens.
Mavuika’s Elemental Burst is not reliant on Energy, but instead, on “Fighting Spirit.”

Fighting Spirit
When Mavuika has at least 50% Fighting Spirit, she can consume it all to unleash her Elemental Burst.
Mavuika can obtain Fighting Spirit via the following methods:
When in combat, Nightsoul points consumed by nearby party members are converted to Fighting Spirit.
When nearby party members’ Normal Attacks hit opponents, Mavuika gains 1.5 Fighting Spirit. This can trigger once every 0.1s.

After using this, Mavuika gains 10 Nightsoul points and enters the Nightsoul’s Blessing state. Riding her Flamestrider high in the air, she uses a powerful Sunfell Slice against opponents on the ground, dealing Nightsoul-aligned AoE Pyro damage and entering the “Crucible of Death and Life” state.

Crucible of Death and Life
During this time, Mavuika’s various actions will no longer consume Nightsoul points, and her interruption resistance is increased. Also, the damage dealt by Sunfell Slice and “Ancient Name Unbound’s normal and charged attacks is increased based on the amount of Fighting Spirit she has when using the Elemental Burst.
Crucible of Death and Life will be canceled when Mavuika leaves the field.
1st ascension passive: Gift of Flaming FlowersWhen a nearby party member triggers a Nightsoul Burst, Mavuika’s attack increases by 30% for 10 seconds.
4th ascension passive: KiongoziAfter using her Elemental Burst, Hour of Burning Skies, every point of Fighting Spirit present when it is used increases the damage that the current active party member deals by 0.2%. The maximum increase obtainable this way is 40%, and this effect lasts 20 seconds, decaying over this duration until it reaches 0.
Night Realm’s Gift Passive: Exhaust ModeAfter Nightsoul points have been fully depleted, Mavuika will switch to using Phlogiston to maintain the All-Fire Armaments’ Flamestrider form.

While in an area with Phlogiston Mechanics within Natlan, Nightsoul Transmission: Mavuika can be used. When the current active character is sprinting, climbing, swimming, in movement modes caused by certain Talents, or at a certain height in the air, switching to Mavuika will trigger the following: Mavuika enters the Nightsoul’s Blessing state and obtains 50% of her maximum Nightsoul points. Nightsoul Transmission can be triggered once every 10 seconds by your own party.
Utility passive: Night-shattering RadianceThe party’s Nightsoul Transmission cooldown is decreased by 20%.
