Genshin Impact Version Luna IV is well underway, and it’s time to take a sneak peek into the near future. Developer HoYoverse teased the release of the long-awaited Grandmaster of the Knights of Favonius, Varka, arriving in Version Luna V.
“In the name of the Anemo Archon, I bear witness to this pact forged between knight and witch, joined in purpose to protect Mondstadt. May this pact, once sealed, stand unshaken by the thousand winds.”—Attributed to: Barbatos, Knight of Boreas, Hexenzirkel
Varka – 5-star Anemo Claymore
Varka, the Knight of Boreas and Grandmaster of the Knights of Favonius, set out on his expedition before the events of the game began. In his absence, Jean and the rest of the remaining Knights, take care of Mondstadt and its citizens. But it seems his long voyage is coming to an end, and his expedition group will be coming home soon. Let’s hope he doesn’t forget to bring the horses back!
Varka’s influence can be felt anywhere in Mondstadt. He helped raise Razor, brought Rosaria to Mondstadt, welcomed Lisa to the ranks of the Knights, and much more. His steady presence and warm laugh are repeatedly mentioned by the younger generation: Klee, Albedo, Durin, Bennett, and the rest.
But beyond that, himself, Barbatos and the Witches of the Hexenzirkel have set up the Tripartite Conference, during which the Hexenzirkel would agree to help Mondstadt in their time of need. Which is exactly what happened in Nod-krai and with the Hexerei enhancements.
