Genshin Impact returned to the center of leaks this Wednesday, January 14, 2026, thanks to sources like Seele and Hiragara_Leaks. These leakers, known for anticipating content from gacha games, revealed details about the signature weapon of the highly anticipated character Varka, the Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius. Predicted to arrive in a future update of HoYoverse’s RPG, the Claymore “Grimoire of the Wolf” promises to be essential for those who wish to maximize the DPS potential of the leader of Mondstadt’s knights. Therefore, the Brazilian community of Travelers is in an uproar, after all, Varka has been a central figure in the plot since the Nod-Krai arc.
According to the disclosed information, the Grimoire of the Wolf not only possesses powerful stats but also a passive effect that confirms Varka’s role as a main on-field character. Thus, he is expected to shine by dealing direct damage, and not just as a support. Furthermore, the weapon’s effect suggests strong synergy with characters of the Hexerei element, granting the user a Critical Damage Bonus. Meanwhile, the ascension materials needed to upgrade the weapon were also listed, including an as-yet-unnamed item, likely coming from new enemies that will arrive in the game.
What to expect from the weapon and Varka
The leaks, although not yet officially confirmed by HoYoverse, paint an exciting scenario for fans. If the information is correct, Varka will solidify himself as a main DPS option that requires field time, a playstyle very popular among claymore users. Therefore, players who invest in teams focused on critical damage and the Hexerei element may find in the Grand Master their new flagship. However, it’s always good to remember that leaks are subject to change, so the recommendation is to follow official channels for future confirmations.
For collectors and meta-players, planning the farming of ascension materials in advance can be a smart move. The listed items include known materials from existing regions and also a mysterious resource, which should be obtained from new enemies. Thus, with the arrival of Varka and his exclusive weapon, a significant renewal in Genshin Impact’s combat meta is expected at the beginning of 2026, offering new strategies and team compositions for Brazilian players to explore.
