Fresh Genshin Impact 6.4 leaks have revealed detailed information about Varka’s signature weapon, a new five star Claymore known as Wolf's Grimoire. Datamined from early beta builds, this weapon appears specifically designed to complement Varka’s expected Anemo focused playstyle, emphasizing attack speed, sustained damage scaling, and conditional CRIT amplification.
According to the leaked data, Wolf's Grimoire features a Base ATK of 608 and a CRIT Rate secondary stat of 33.1% at maximum level. This stat combination immediately positions the weapon as a high performance option for main damage dealers who rely on frequent Normal Attacks and consistent CRIT uptime. The relatively high CRIT Rate also allows for more flexible artifact optimization, freeing players to invest more heavily into CRIT DMG or ATK percentages.
The weapon’s passive ability, Indomitable Chivalry, introduces a layered mechanic centered around attack cadence and stacking buffs. First, the wielder receives a 10% increase to ATK SPD, a rare and highly valuable stat in Genshin Impact. Increased attack speed directly improves Normal Attack fluidity, reaction frequency, and overall damage output, especially for Claymore users who typically suffer from slower animations.
The second component of Indomitable Chivalry activates when Normal Attacks hit opponents, granting the wielder stacks of Ballad of the Four Winds. Each stack increases DMG dealt by 6%, lasts for four seconds, and can stack up to five times. The extremely short trigger interval of 0.1 seconds suggests that maintaining full stacks during continuous combat will be highly consistent, particularly in prolonged encounters or boss fights.
At maximum stacks, Ballad of the Four Winds provides a substantial 30% DMG bonus, making Wolf's Grimoire especially effective in sustained damage scenarios rather than short burst windows. This design strongly aligns with leaks suggesting Varka’s kit may favor extended field time and continuous pressure.
The final layer of the passive adds further depth. When the party possesses Hexerei Secret Rite effects, each stack of Ballad of the Four Winds additionally increases the wielder’s CRIT DMG by 6%. With five stacks active, this translates to an extra 30% CRIT DMG, creating a powerful synergy between party composition and weapon scaling. This condition hints at upcoming mechanics or characters tied to Hexerei related effects, suggesting forward compatibility with future content.
From a balance perspective, Wolf's Grimoire leaks indicate a weapon designed to scale aggressively with both player skill and team planning. The reliance on Normal Attacks, attack speed, and stacking buffs encourages consistent uptime and positioning rather than simple one button bursts. This could significantly impact Claymore meta builds if the weapon releases unchanged.
Community reaction to these Varka signature weapon leaks has been notably strong. Many players view Wolf's Grimoire as one of the most mechanically dense Claymores leaked to date, while others caution that values and conditions may still change during beta testing. As with all datamined information, HoYoverse may adjust stats, durations, or effect triggers before official release.
Nevertheless, if current data remains accurate, Wolf's Grimoire is positioned to become a defining weapon for Version 6.4, reinforcing Varka’s role as a sustained damage powerhouse and setting a new standard for future signature Claymore designs.
