As for Venti, Elegy for the End that has a secondary stat of energy regeneration will greatly benefit him considering his high Elemental Burst cost. Apart from that, it will also increase the swirl reactions during combat. Therefore, if players are planning to pull for Venti, this weapon is a must addition.
