New Genshin Impact 6.4 leaks have revealed significant details surrounding Varka’s signature weapon, expanding on earlier information about his kit and positioning him as a premium Anemo claymore user. The leaked data covers the weapon’s visual design, ascension structure, in game icon, and even hints at a possible cosmetic weapon skin planned for future versions.
Varka’s signature weapon is confirmed to be a five star claymore, visually designed to reflect his Anemo alignment and knightly identity. The default version features a refined silver and teal color scheme, sharp symmetrical edges, and glowing accents that strongly align with Mondstadt aesthetics and Anemo symbolism. The overall design reinforces Varka’s role as a disciplined frontline commander rather than a chaotic or corrupted force.
Alongside the weapon itself, Varka weapon ascension materials have also been identified in leaks. These materials follow the standard structure for five star weapons, requiring high tier domain drops, elite enemy components, and large Mora investments. The progression cost places the weapon firmly in the late game category, requiring long term farming and preparation. While exact quantities remain subject to change, the structure mirrors other recent limited five star claymores released in major versions.
The leaks also confirm the existence of a dedicated Varka weapon icon. The icon uses a stylized silhouette of the claymore with distinctive Anemo themed highlights, ensuring immediate visual recognition in inventories and menus. Weapon icons are typically finalized late in development, suggesting the weapon is close to its final implementation state.
One of the most intriguing elements revealed is a possible weapon skin for Varka’s signature claymore. This alternate version appears in a striking red color scheme, replacing the default Anemo tones with darker crimson hues and glowing accents. While not officially confirmed, the presence of this alternate design strongly suggests a future cosmetic system expansion or event related unlock.
Varka Weapon Skin lore - Radiant Phantasm: A glorious, illusory sword that emerged from the depths of the Ley Lines. It is said that in the past, it was wielded by the white knight under the name Durandal. Its name, in ancient tongues, means "the blade that is never destroyed." Just like the sword he bore, the path the knight believed in has never wavered — no matter how the once-pure steel has since been darkened.
This red variant is heavily associated with Radiant Phantasm, a weapon skin concept linked to Version 6.3 lore. According to leaked narrative text, Radiant Phantasm is described as a glorious and illusory blade born from the depths of the Ley Lines. In ancient legends, it was wielded by the white knight known as Durandal, and its name translates to the blade that is never destroyed. The lore emphasizes unwavering conviction, perseverance, and ideals that remain intact even as the blade itself darkens over time.
The thematic connection between Radiant Phantasm and Varka is notable. Both represent unwavering belief, knightly resolve, and leadership shaped by hardship. This has led many within the leak community to speculate that the red weapon skin may symbolize a historical or alternate legacy tied to Mondstadt’s past, possibly linked to forgotten knights, corrupted Ley Line echoes, or future story revelations.
If implemented, this would mark one of the most lore driven weapon skins introduced so far, blending visual customization with narrative significance. It would also align with HoYoverse’s recent trend of expanding cosmetic systems beyond characters into weapons.
Overall, the Varka signature weapon leak for Genshin Impact 6.4 showcases a high effort design supported by strong lore foundations, advanced ascension requirements, and potential future customization. Combined with Varka’s already impressive base stats and kit leaks, his weapon appears designed to reinforce his status as a flagship character of Version 6.4.
