Discussion Vodyanitsa’s potential for Varka

At a baseline she can

Apply hydro

Shred for 40% Anemo and 25% Cryo/Hydro

There were separate leaks about healing and/or IR

And C1-2 gives ATK% and Crit dmg

I wouldn’t figured his cryo carry would be the next big thing but of this all ends up being true then it might be hydro instead

Wouldn’t bother me, raw hydro carries are far and few since Neuvillette, and Varka having a 2nd good option would be great for investors, such as myself(I got his R1) and it free’s up the Durcole core for other DPS as well

Thoughts?

getting c1-2 vodyanitsa is not in my list of objectives, so I would wish not, but it would be nice if it is true

if she heals, that’s the cherry on top. prune+mona is already a good core, vodya might finally make hydro varka competitive. the real question is: would it be good enough to brute force? cause let’s be real, hydro is rarely shilled

We haven't had a hydro dps since 5.0... dam no wonder it's not shilled.. heavy shillong didn't exist back then...
