Best Nilou Build Guide In Genshin Impact
On the battlefield, players will get to witness more of Nilou’s graceful dance steps, where her abilities revolve all around them. The Star of the Zubayr Theater is an excellent support with some DPS potential, so players should decide how they want to play their Nilou before determining Nilou’s best build in Genshin Impact.
Nilou Best Build In Genshin Impact
Nilou best build in Genshin Impact mostly focuses on her supportive value, but players can also choose to play her as a DPS.
Best Artifacts For Support Nilou
Artifact Set
1. 2pc Tenacity of the Millelith + 2pc Vourukasha's Glow
2. 2pc HP +20% + 2pc Elemental Mastery +80
3. 4pc Flower of Paradise Lost
4. 4pc Deepwood Memories
5. 4pc Gilded Dreams
6. 2pc Elemental Mastery +80 + 2pc Elemental Mastery +80
For the best artifact set for support Nilou, players should focus on maximizing Nilou’s HP, so 2pc Tenacity of the Millelith + 2pc Vourukasha's Glow can be a great option. If Nilou is triggering Bloom, then 4pc Flower of Paradise Lost is a great artifact set since it insanely amplifies the DMG of any Dendro Bloom she might create. However, typically, Nilou is not the main trigger, so it's best to stick with HP artifacts. Meanwhile, if no one in the team uses 4pc Deepwood Memories, then Nilou can be the one wielding it.
Artifact Main Stat
1. Timepiece: HP
2. Goblet: HP or Hydro DMG Bonus
3. Circlet: HP
Triple HP is the best choice for Nilou so that players can maximize her HP and the bonus provided by her fourth-Ascension passive. If the dancer uses the Key of Khaj-Nisut, then HP becomes even more crucial.
Best Weapons For Support Nilou
1. Key of Khaj-Nisut
2. Sacrificial Sword
3. Freedom-Sworn
4. Iron Sting
5. Sapwood Blades
6. Xiphos' Moonlight
7. Sapwood Blade
8. Favonius Sword
9. Toukabou Shigure
Key of Khaj-Nisut is Nilou's best weapon in Genshin Impact. It’s great to boost both Nilou’s and the entire team’s Elemental Mastery. If the Sword is not available, players can also increase Nilou's support with Freedom-Sworn, Sapwood Blade, Xiphos' Moonlight, or Favonius Sword. Meanwhile, Iron Sting and Toukabou Shigure are decent for the Elemental Mastery sub-stat.
Best Artifacts For DPS Nilou
Artifact Set
1. 4pc Vourukasha's Glow
2. 2pc Heart of Depths + 2pc Nymph's Dream
3. 2pc Tenacity of the Millelith + 2pc Vourukasha's Glow
4. 2pc HP +20% + 2pc Hydro DMG Bonus +15%
5. 4pc Gilded Dreams
DPS Nilou is a little more complicated. Nilou’s Hydro Infusion from her Skill is considered Elemental Skill DMG, so there are not many artifact sets that can buff it directly. Fortunately, after Genshin Impact 3.6, players can benefit from 4pc Vourukasha's Glow which increases both Skill and Burst DMG when the wielder takes damage. Taking damage is easy for Nilou since her Bountiful Cores will self-damage any active character within its AoE.
If getting a four-piece set is too hard, players can always settle with a mix of 2pc HP +20% and/or 2pc Hydro DMG Bonus +15% artifacts.
Artifact Main Stat
1. Timepiece: HP
2. Goblet: Hydro DMG Bonus
3. Circlet: Critical Rate/DMG or HP
Best Weapons For DPS Nilou
1. Primordial Jade Cutter
2. Mistsplitter Reforged
3. Haran Geppaku Futsu
4. Light of Foliar Incision
For those who insist on keeping Nilou on the field, Genshin Impact Swords that boost Critical Stats are naturally the best options. Primordial Jade Cutter grants a large Crit Rate and some additional HP, while Mistsplitter Reforged, Light of Foliar Incision, and Haran Geppaku Futsu are viable as a stat-stick.
Best Characters To Pair With Nilou In Genshin Impact
The best way to build a Nilou team composition in Genshin Impact is by adding characters that synergize with her ability to amplify Bloom DMG. Her A1 passive dictates the Elements of the characters that should be in a Nilou team comp, which are either Hydro or Dendro units. This limitation, while restricting, it’s an attempt to balance the insane DMG potential Nilou can produce with both her A1 and A4 passives.
The other issue Nilou team comps go through is the friendly fire her Bountiful Cores cause when they explode, dealing unnoticeable DMG to the active character. However, with the amount of Bountiful Cores exploding, they will keep the party’s HP at a critical level. For that, it’s necessary to always include a shielder or a healer in Nilou team comps in Genshin Impact.
With all that in mind, the best Dendro characters to pair with Nilou are:
1. Baizhu
2. Nahida
3. Kaveh
4. Alhaitham
5. Yaoyao
6. Dendro MC
7. Yaoyao
As for the best Hydro characters:
1. Kokomi
2. Yelan
3. Xingqiu
4. Barbara
5. Tartaglia
6. Ayato
7. Candace
