   • Since key and jade cutter are the only swords that give HP, just using iron sting or the umbrella sword will be your best bet F2P. Or if your team needs energy fav is always good.

2. It’s unfair to see mains of powercrept units like Hutao or Ayaka be allowed to reroll on Nilou, when they didn’t the first time. True Nilou mains got her back in the day when trolls were calling her “niche”. Only TRUE Nilou mains should enjoy the only meta 5* of Sumeru.

   Tell Hoyoverse to remove the new Nilou banner, don’t let the meta bandwagon crowd all reroll to Nilou.

   • whats this for? if you are thinking using Alhaitham with Nilou.
     You better use Nahida instead of him, I found more success using Nahida as the driver with Xingqiu.
     Alhaitham Hyperbloom/Spread comps works fantastic against tons of mobs too but not as broken as Nilou.
     Nilou is quite underestimated against bosses. She absolutely murder everyone that isnt immune or resist to dendro.

5. I’m gonna say it, I’m a Nilou intusiast. I got her C0R1.

   If you want to check out my build, there you go:
   https://enka.network/u/603154867/
   She reaches 69k HP with hydro resonance.

   I’m still trying to learn how to play her but I think I’m dumb. Also her blooms are doing 27k damage each.

   And yet, last abyss I couldn’t kill wenut in time, I got 35 stars and in this one I got 35 stars as well.

   Idk if it’s me that don’t know how to play, if it’s my characters that are not C6R5, or if it’s wenut problem that stays underground for 30 seconds.

   • It’s Nilou’s bad DPS. Hyperbloom can be played with 4 stars and do 30k or more per seed, and home in on the enemies. Bloom with no CC cuz of trash Nilou team restrictions means you miss often and lose every time. Sorry you wasted your primos but I’d advise not to waste even more to make her weak comps work. Bench her and move on to better characters.

     • Its Wenut. Nilou’s counter.
       If you play her with Xingqiu/Yelan + Nahida as driver. I suggest focusing on building tons of EM on both Nahida and Xingqiu. Plus try to find shit loads of HP or EM substats on Nilou. Your build is trying so hard to make Nilou do individual DPS. I only use her Water Ring rather than her DPS.

       check my build if you are curious or DM me on Discord if you want for more details.

   • While you can technically still 3 star wenut with the most F2P Nilou team (Nilou c0/Barbara/Collei/DMC using Dark Iron Sword), generally pure Dendro damage is bad against him bc of 55% perma dendro res. I’d say just use an aggravate team for the 2nd phase this time just to make it a lot easier. I got +1m17s just using aggra Keq on average artis.

     Next Abyss I believe you can blindly play her team as it is 3 Kinkies again.
     Currently, this may be the worst abyss phase for her? (The frost shield monstrosity isn’t here yet)
     But can still manage to 36 star, albeit with a bit of sweat involved.

   • For Wenut it’ll be hard to use conventional Nilou team, you’ll need to tweak your team for more single target focused. Thankfully the first 2 chambers aren’t that hard and you’ll have similar clear time using the single target variant of Nilou’s team.

     The team I used was Nilou/Nahida/Xingqiu/Yaoyao, and it was really easy after looking up some videos on when to do burst and apply skills.

     As you start the fight, use Nahida’s burst followed by Nilou’s dance, if wenut comes out to shoot anemo bullets, run after it with Xingqiu and use burst and skill to get some energy, if wenut comes out below you, you’ll have time to apply Nahida’s skill and a few normal attacks for some damage.
     After it goes underground, it’ll come out somewhere near you so don’t move and put down Yuegui with Yaoyao and switch to Nahida to spam skill and normal attack with Xingqiu’s burst.
     Next the worm will appear at the end of the room furthest away from you. Turn your camera and start dashing as soon as you see the worm comes out. Apply Nahida’s skill and Nilou’s dance. Use Xingqiu’s burst and skill to get some energy back.
     Again wenut will appear near you so don’t move and place down Yuegui with Yaoyao, and switch to Nahida again to apply skill ONCE (important or else you’ll be in cooldown next time) and spam normal attack with Xingqui’s burst.
     Wenut will then start flying. Use Nahida’s burst and take a picture of the worm, then switch to Nilou and use her burst at the worm’s lowest point to knock it down. Then go ham with Xinqiu skill and burst -> Nahida skill -> Yaoyao skill, burst, and normal attack until there is only 1 Yuegui left, and back Nahida to spam skill and normal attacks.
     Once it’s half way into the ground, switch Nilou to dance and use Xingqiu’s burst and skill and repeat.

     Xingqiu’s recharge is crucial, and so is Nilou’s if you need to bring wenut down twice. Mine is 227% for Xingqiu and 140% for Nilou. There are probably more optimal ways, but this is the rotation I did and it’s been working really well. My clear time for the first few runs was 110s – 120s, and now it’s around 85s – 100s.

6. I skipped her before and I’m gonna skip her again. She does more damage to your own team than the enemies.

         • Exactly. It’s an issue with her skills. Nilou is very mediocre. I’m glad even someone like you (low IQ) can see this. Bloom is self kill comp and Nilou restricts you to 2 elements if you want to play her “optimally”. Easy skip if you ask me.

       • If you die, then you don’t know how to build/play your healers. I do abyss with Proto Amber Nahida and I don’t die. It’s not Nilou’s fault if you are bad.

       • I know right, all these people need to stop coping with “Nilou is good”. I got her cause she’s so bad and I wanted a real challenge at the game. I’m not those lame meta slaves with their skill-less hyperbloom teams carrying their skill-less-ness to make themselves feel better. I have to use terrible artifacts, level 1 talents and a dull blade with a terrible character, but despite all that, I can full star abyss with no issues with all those handicaps and a bottom tier character, all thanks to my amazing skills that those noob hyperbloom players can never achieve.

   • I think it’s good with Xinqiu, and using Nahida as on-fielder. So Baizhu shield/buffs is going to Nahida and she will be the one generating the bloom seeds.

     You might need Nilou C1 for more consistent hydro application, and maybe do not spam Nahida autos, the enemy will always to have hydro on the top of his head, so then the dendro (Nahida) will be generating the bloom seeds.

8. Is she that good? I know she is very good, but I already have a good set of characters. I often play with my friend in coop and our 2 hyperbloom teams are:
   1. Nahida, Kokomi, Raiden + whatever we feel like (Alhaitam/Yelan/Zhongli)
   2. Nahida, Kokomi, Nilou + whatever we feel like (Alhaitam/Yelan/Zhongli)
   Nahida, Raiden and Alhaitam we play are C2. Everyone else C0. Alhaitam is rarely used in these comps as I much prefer him in Dendro/Electro only teams.

   Tbh I feel no difference in clear times. Is there any situation where team 2 clearly outshines team 1? I love her visuals, so I might pull anyway though :X

   • why playing her in a hyperbloom team anyways? she does nothing yelan and ayato could do better. she is intended to be played in a bloom team not hyperbloom team.
     bloom nilou is indeed strong. with a lot em her bountiful cores do slightly less dmg than hyperblooms but you also get more blooms and a lot more aoe.

     • I’ll repeat my tests then! Thanks. Will probably roll for her anyway because she’s so cute.
       First time I didnt roll (even after I prefarmed 😡 ) as I was upset about team limitations and didnt have any dendro units I liked. Now with Nahida I can roll ^^

9. “ Hoyo: seeing nilou is a T0 tier char and lots of people regret skipping her like kazuha case
   Also hoyo: how about rerunning this char in patch 6.9”

   It is suck that she would get a rerun in 3.6 (90% chance). I want regretted skippers to suffer more. Hopefully there is a plot twist (Eula is screaming)

   If u think this is a troll then … just say it. I’m overthinking about Ayaka rerun so bad that I lose all of my self control now ?

   • lol, i skipped kazu twice and advised my friend to get him when he 1st came out cuz everyone knew he was good back then; i want kazu but dont need him. nilou is such an unnecessary char cuz you can just play hyperbloom with venti or kazu CC or whoever else, no regrets needed with nilou and her bellybuttonless dollar general brand kokomi design.

         • Hyperbloom as such a wide AoE that can covert all Teyvat, you are right, nothing to compare with Nilou’s bloom team =O

         • cope. thats exactly the point. even with such properties it still. hence why nilou is unnecessary cuz why limit your team when you can bring cc or, now listen closely cuz i know your literacy is weak, OR UNIT YOU WANT. with the exception of pyro unless their pyro is just a facade. also, its not like the hb only seeks the 1/999 mobs anyways wasting the dmg limit and you produce tons so it doesn’t matter.

         • “nilou is unnecessary” => At this point, no character is a absolute need, you can do the game without Yelan, Nahida, Raiden, Zhongli, Hutao, etc…
           If you wanna play HB, go, it’s a fun playstyle. If you wanna play different teams, Nilou is one of them. Point is she add a unique playstyle that is, now listen closely cuz i know your literacy is weak, better than HB in every AoE scenarios. Yes, I know, you have some difficulties to admit it but don’t worry, I know you can do it.

           Your point is about playing any char you want, with the number of hydro and dendro char, you have variety with Nilou too. If you wanna play other know that Nilou’s personnal damage (while not HuTao lvl) aren’t garbage, you can play vape or mono hydro just fine even at C0.
           In a pure bloom comp (hydro + dendro) why would you bring other elements? Electro and Pyro mess with it, Geo doesn’t bring anything, and for Anemo, I already said CC aren’t obligatory (nice QoL tho but you can destroy anyhting without is) and VV shred isn’t important there. Cryo can bring fridge mecanic but we already have a huge seed production in 2D2H.

           Bonus point for Anemo : Outside of CC, what does it bring ? With 2H1D, hydro will override dendro so you will trade powerful seed for swirl dmg. (7K x 2 per swirl is less than 25K x 2 with seeds for every 0.5 sec)
           With 1H2D, you will never be able to swirl hydro to produce seeds since dendro will be permanantly on ennemis.
           So only 1D1H ? with Cryo/Anemo ? A lot of CC but less seeds too.
           I think best Nilou teams would have stay with Hydro and dendro chars, especially with Nahida.

           But I understand, you are salty for your 50/50 loss. You aren’t the fist one, don’t worry, we are here with you, you can cry.

     • Wowow. If you don’t like a character fair enough, but don’t go on insulting their designs like that. Nilou’s design is representative of Persian culture, no need to be that insensitive no matter how uncultured you are.

     People shitposting her will still shitpost gnagnagna no anemo CC gnagnagna team restriction and all. Look at Kokomi. Kokomi is T0 support, 2nd best unit to have according to CN community (before Nahida’s release, she might drop to third place now?), and shitposter still shitpost her. Even the Saint Zajef still says “Eeehh….” when talking about her in a really recent video. (I don’t attack Zajef, his content is great and I follow him and his work, I just don’t understand why he doesn’t like Kokomi and only talk about removing her as soon as a new unit appears in every team she have a room)

10. just what a pity for her super niche passive, where she wants 2 dendro and 2 hydro … i can’t even do 1 dendro or 1 hydro and the rest the opposite without losing that effect, what a stupid shit is this
    Was that too much, leaving it with just “dendro and hydro only” teams? prolly, yes
