### Shocking valkyrie who chains massive damage across enemy teams.

Varya's attacks deal 55-132 (level 1-12) (+45% crystal power) crystal damage. If Varya holds her ground after attacking, she will strike her target & up to 3 additional enemies with a bolt of Chain Lightning. This bolt deals the same damage & consumes 170 energy.

![Stormforged Spear](https://2488523938-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-L9jiwk9ds21Hoy5QAcA%2F-LAXAd4fN5N9BW83CkCF%2F-LAXAeRQ8SlMCu50cSw0%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=42fe257c-ef80-46fb-bdce-bbd6c4c7f5e6)

Varya throws a spear at lightning speed, striking the first enemy in its path. This deals a burst of damage to the target & chains additional damage to nearby targets.

* When cast during or after Arc Recursion, the spear is thrown more quickly.
* Number of additional targets hit is equal to her Chain Lightning attack.

## Ability B: Arc Recursion

![Arc Recursion](https://2488523938-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-L9jiwk9ds21Hoy5QAcA%2F-LBf45DZznNgOpg2O9RI%2F-LBf4wKxr0PJzgVmEqBM%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=e3a1f836-cbf2-4cb6-bcef-9d2c53a2a99e)

After gathering power for 0.9s, Varya's next two move commands will instantly dash in the chosen direction, striking the 3 nearest enemies at the end of each dash. For each enemy struck, Varya recovers 5% of her energy & gains a barrier equal to 3% of her health (bonuses doubled on heroes).

* Overdrive: Varya moves further with each dash.
* Varya can dash at any time, but will only dash once if she has not fully charged.
* Varya can activate Stormforged Spear at any time during this ability. Any remaining dashes will trigger after the spear is thrown.
* Deals 50% less damage to minions.

## Ultimate: Anvil's Hammer

![Anvil's Hammer](https://2488523938-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-L9jiwk9ds21Hoy5QAcA%2F-LBaqwHk8Msmt144bxz-%2F-LBastZY2kDsnF25gFEF%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=063268f7-aa87-476b-8daf-b0b442fce473)

After channeling for 2.4s, Varya unleashes the fury of the storm, calling a series of lightning strikes on every enemy hero, regardless of distance. Passively, each rank of the ultimate permanently increases her attack speed & the number of enemies her Chain Lightning & Stormforged Spear will hit.

* Lightning strikes target the ground beneath enemy heroes, giving them an opportunity to move out of the way.
* Lightning strikes deal 75% reduced damage to enemies already hit by lightning in the same wave.
* Varya can break out of channeling early by activating Stormforged Spear or Arc Recursion. This does not cancel the spell.
* Deals 50% less damage to minions.
