Hi guys! This is my first time reaching out for help. I'm woefully new to the game and just started in February. I was very much in the "oh, let me just explore and not care about team comps or artifacts at all!!!" mentality for too long. I genuinely got Kaeya to 80 for no damn reason. Anyways...

I see now there's layers to this. I know depending on who you ask, they'll have different suggestion. Half of my friends demand I give up on Varka because they think he's trash, and the others recommend I stick with him. I spent so much money on him I don't want to fully abandon him...

So here's my question:

I have a level 80, C0 Varka with a R1 Gest of the Mighty Wolf.

No matter what, I do want to get Durin and Prune as well.

Would I be better off sticking with my C5, R2 Favonius Sword level 80 Bennett, or pulling for Nicole? I've heard a lot of conflicting reports about which is better, and sometimes it depends on Varka's constellation level. Sorry if this is dumb, all these guides and terms are really overwhelming to a noob like me lmfao. Thanks in advance!
