Venaka is a Magic 
Wind DPS who also doubles as the best MRES shredder. The fact that she shreds before dealing damage would make her a menace in PvP, but she'll need a second costume to truly shine.
Check out my other Character Guides:
Strengths and Weaknesses
＋Really strong damage for both PvE and PvP.
＋Best MRES shredder, with 100% uptime.
＋[PvP] She shreds before dealing damage, which means it is very difficult to tank her damage.
－Venaka currently only has 1 costume, which restricts her performance especially in PvP.

DJ Venaka has really high damage rivaling other top DPS units, making her great in PvE content. On top of that, she also shreds MRES for 50%. What's special about her is that she shreds before dealing damage (most other units apply debuffs after their first hit), which makes her damage difficult to resist.
In PvP this is especially relevant since there are very few units that can survive this skill (buffed by Helena), examples being Seir with her damage reduction, Idol Granhildr with 110 MRES, and Lathel with 140 MRES. However, Venaka currently only has one costume, which makes her deadweight every other attack turn.
At +1, she works perfectly well as an MRES shredder (get skill potential 2 for the cooldown reduction), but she'll want those damage upgrades if she wants to perform as a DPS. The range upgrade significantly makes her better.
Key Upgrades: Design +1, Skill Potential 2 and 3, DMG Upgrades add up.
Building Venaka
Venaka has slightly different gear depending on whether you're using her in PvP or PvE.
Sing in Harmony
Exclusive Stat — 45 MATK%
Correct Main Stats — MATK + CDMG
This exclusive weapon is a decent boost to Venaka's DMG, but is definitely not necessary.
Bond Potential
| MATK | 14.2% |
| CDMG | 104% |
| Wind DMG | 30% |
DJ is currently her only option for bond potentials, so use that! They're very good offensive stats.
