Obtaining the best build for Mavuika in is an important step in optimizing her as a damage dealer for your team comps, regardless of whether she operates as a main DPS or a sub-DPS.
The Pyro Archon became a playable character in Version 5.3 following her debut as an NPC in the Natlan story arc. As confirmed by HoYoverse, Mavuika is a versatile character who can operate as an on-field DPS or an off-field Pyro sub-DPS.
Mavuika’s kit in allows such flexibility, but it depends on players to focus on either aspect of her abilities. With her Elemental Skill, Mavuika can either summon a Ring of Searing Radiance to deal constant Nightsoul-aligned Pyro DMG to nearby enemies, even when she is off-field, or summon her Flamestrider to imbue her Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attacks with Nightsoul-aligned Pyro DMG. While both roles in Mavuika’s kit see her dealing damage, there are some subtle changes to her build depending on which job she is tackling, so it’s necessary to build her adequately in order to take advantage of her powers.
Of course, this comes after you obtain Mavuika’s materials in and Ascend her. The best weapon for Mavuika is her signature 5-star claymore, A Thousand Blazing Suns.
This weapon has a high base ATK stat (741 at level 90) and a useful CRIT Rate sub-stat (11% at level 90). Furthermore, when Mavuika uses her Elemental Skill or Burst, she gains Scorching Brilliance, which boosts her CRIT DMG by 20% and her ATK by 28% for six seconds – the effect can be triggered once every 10 seconds.
