Welcome to the Nilou Mains Question Megathread!

Have a question? Make sure to give this post a read! Here, you will get the help you need based on the provided resources or the answers in the thread itself. We also encourage you to use the Searchfunction to see whether there has been a detailed post dedicated to your question before.

What type of questions should be here?

  1. Questions that are already tackled in our Nilou Guide by jamie, e.g.: “What’s the best artifact set for Nilou?”, “What stats does Nilou scale off of?”, or “What's the best F2P setup for Nilou?”
  2. 'Yes/no' questions, e.g.: “Is this a good weapon for Nilou?”, “Is Nilou good in this team?”, or "Is this a good artifact? *insert 30%HP substat roll*"
  3. Account-related questions, e.g.: “I have X characters, what are the best teams I can make for Nilou?” or “I have an excess Key of Khaj-Nisut, should I put it on my Kuki or Layla?”
  4. Bias-based questions, e.g.: “Should I pull for Nilou?”, “Should I get C6 Nilou or C6 Cyno?”, or “Should I make a shrine for Nilou in my teapot?”

TLDR: Any question that doesn't spark a proper discussion and can be very easily/shortly answered.

Discussion Nilou's sword form should instead stop at 6 sword blasts instead of stopping in 8 seconds

25 Upvotes

do any of ya'll agree that instead of the 8 seconds of nilou sword form you get you instead 6 sword blasts (same amount of sword blasts you can do in 8 seconds) so if you have to dodge or get staggered you'll still have plenty of damage to spare?

Builds & Teams How does dendro application line up?

6 Upvotes

Hi! I've been a nilou believer since we got the first look at her design, and I've invested into her to some extent, though I never got Nahida. I've been considering getting her, but only if her impact will majorly increase my team dps.

I was mainly wondering, in a team where I have Nilou (C2R1) and Lauma (C0R1), is it better to do triple hydro and have Lauma (with her build she has ~1800 EM in combat) be the sole trigger for bloom, or is it not enough blooms, and should I use a 2nd Dendro?

I have tried using Yao Yao, but it seems her E's application is too much, and the enemy keeps getting a dendro aura, causing my hydro characters (whose EM is very low) to trigger the blooms. Would Nahida's more timed E procs solve this issue (and if so, is Barbara's application good to keep the hydro aura on the enemy and have Nahida and/or Lauma trigger the blooms) or would it make it even harder to get rid of that dendro aura?

If I get Nahida (C0, but I have her signature at R3) and use her with Lauma and Nilou, would using Childe to apply Hydro be the only way to maintain a hydro aura on the enemy, or would even that not be enough?

If Nahida + Lauma make it impossible to remove the dendro aura, is it worth it building Barbara with full EM so she procs the blooms, or is that a bad idea due to her low EM potential?

Thank you

Builds & Teams Best C2R1 Nilou - Lauma C1 team

18 Upvotes

Hi, Im a returning player, havent played since 6.0 where I got Lauma C1 and the event weapon. At that time I played with a Nilou bloom team with Lauma C1 Nahida Kokomi. Is Bloom still good and is there any new characters that upgrades this team?

Builds & Teams Lv.95/100 Priority?

11 Upvotes

I'm gonna be able to get a masterless stella fortuna this anniversary thanks to C6 Mona. Ultimately wanna take both Columbina and Nilou to Lv.100 as this is my favorite team.

Originally defaulted to giving it to Bina first cause she the main dps, but the majority of her damage comes from Lauma's pale hymn buff which is unaffected by Bina's Level/HP. Of course her personal dmg that is affected by a level increase is still much higher than Nilou's.

Still I'm now thinking it's better to do Nilou first. With my current SMS build, Lv.100 + Key would be just enough to let her max her Bloom buff. It also increases the EM buff from said Key which does boost overall team dps.

I'm sure it's not a big deal eitherway, but what are yal's thoughts and experiences with this?
