Neuvillette Best Build

Neuvillette Works Best When Built As An On-Field DPS

Weapon	Tome Of The Eternal Flow
Artifact	Marechaussee Hunter x4
Artifact Stats	Sands: HP% Goblet: Hydro DMG Bonus Circlet: Crit DMG
Artifact Sub-Stats	1. CRIT DMG 2. HP% 3. CRIT Rate 4. ER or EM
Recommended Team

Neuvillette is a powerful character that deals on-field Hydro DMG from Charged Attack. His damage scales from HP so increasing CRIT Stats and HP is important to increase those stats.

Because Of Marechaussee Hunter Set, Neuvillette already gains 36% CRIT Rate with very high up-time so you can focus on increasing the CRIT DMG of Neuvillette. Other than CRIT DMG, increasing his HP and Energy Recharge is good so that Neuvillette's damage is powerful and consistent.

Neuvillette Best Weapon

Neuvillette Works Best With CRIT, HP & Elemental DMG Bonus Weapons

	Weapon	Details
Best	Tome Of The Eternal Flow	CRIT DMG 88.8% (Lvl. 90) - Signature weapon of Neuvillette. - Amazing HP and Charged Attack DMG buff boosting the damage of Neuvillette. - Amazing CRIT DMG is also amazing for building.
1st	Sacrificial Jade	CRIT Rate 36.8% (Lvl. 90) - Neuvillette uses HP buff and Elemental Mastery. -With Crit Rate from Sacrificial Jade and Marechausse Hunter, you can get max CRIT Rate with ease. - To keep the weapon effect up, you can only use Neuvilette on-field for 10 seconds.
2nd	Lost Prayer To The Sacred Winds	CRIT Rate 33.1% - Great for increasing DMG and movement of Neuvilette. - CRIT Rate is great for building.
3rd (F2P)	Prototype Amber	HP 41.3% (Lvl. 90) - Great for increasing HP of Neuvillette. - The effect gives Energy and allows you to no longer need a healer in your team. - Amazing F2P option but makes it difficult to have a good CRIT Balance.
4th	Jadefall's Splendor	HP 49.6% - Decent HP Stack weapon that gives DMG bonus for the team. - Also helps Neuvillette to get energy for Elemental Burst.
5th	Everlasting Moonglow	HP 49.6% (Lvl. 90) - Great for boosting HP of Neuvillette - The Normal ATK buff is not that good since Neuvillette does not use it most of the time.
6th	Sacrificial Fragments	Elemental Mastery 221 (Lvl. 90) - Great for increasing the DMG of reactions produced by Neuvillette - Allows you to cast skill twice producing energy and orbs for Charged Attack and Ult.
7th	The Widsith	CRIT DMG 55.1% (Lvl. 90) - Great CRIT DMG Stat Stick for The Widsith. - 2 of the bonuses works well with Neuvillette. - Long Cooldown of passive is not very ideal.
8th (F2P)	Mappa Mare	Elemental Mastery 110 (Lvl. 90) - Great for increasing the DMG of reactions produced by Neuvillette - Works well with Neuvillette's Passive on increasing DMG bonus.

When choosing weapons for Neuvillette, it is important to focus on CRIT Stats or HP to lessen the burden on your artifacts. If you do not have an available HP or CRIT Weapon, Elemental Mastery or Elemental DMG Boosting weapons are also an option.

Main DPS	Sub-DPS	Support	Support
Neuvillette	Furina	Xilonen	Kazuha
Details
- Neuvillette needs multiple reaction for the DMG boost in his passive. - Furina gives additional DMG bonus and Hydro Resonance. - Kazuha and Xilonen both reduce the Hydro Resistance of the enemies. - Xilonen also increases the Elemental DMG dealt by Neuvillette and mitigates Furina's HP drain with her Burst healing. - Swirl and Crystallize reactions will happen with the two supports

Other Character That Works With Neuvillette

Other Characters That Works With Neuvillette

Character	Sub	Details
Furina	Childe Nahida Candace	- Childe can provide Hydro Resonance and increases the Normal Attack level of Neuvillette. Tartaglia does not need to be on-field in this party. - You can also use Nahida for additional Dendro reaction and Elemental Mastery boost. - Candace can provide slight DMG bonus and Hydro Resonance.
Xilonen	Jean Kachina	- Jean is a good replacement for Xilonen at Furina teams. Outside Furina teams, Kachina with Cinder City set is a good substitute.
Kazuha	Sucrose Jean Venti Lynette Mona	- Anemo Supports that provide crowd control or Elemental Mastery buff will be good with Neuvillette. Lynette who buffs attack can still be used for their additional DMG and VV but is not as impactful since Neuvillette scales from HP. - Mona can be used also as a support because of Omen buff. She can also provide Hydro Resonance and Hydro energy for Neuvillette. However, this is at the expense of not maximizing the passive.

Neuvillette Skill Guide & How To Use Neuvillette

How to Use Neuvillette?

How To Use?

▼Top Tier Charged Attack Hydro DPS
▼Use Hydro Reactions to Increase His Damage
▼Use E. Skill and E. Burst to Create Droplets
▼Use Charged Attack to Absorb Droplets and Deal Damage
▼Charged Attack can be Used For Floating Over Water

Top Tier Charged Attack Hydro DPS

Neuvillette is the current best Hydro DPS. This is due to his damage scaling and ease of use. Building a team for Neuvillette only has the requirement of being able to enable Hydro-related reactions so that his passive effect will be triggered and he will be able to obtain stacks. With how long lasting these stacks are, only a single trigger of such reactions from every member is needed for his rotations.

Things Neuvillette Can Do
★ Deal Powerful Hydro damage with his Charged Attacks ★ Makes use of Hydro-related reactions to increase Charged Attack damage ★ Create Sourcewater Droplets with his E. Skill and E. Burst ★ Absorb existing Sourcewater Droplets to reduce charging time for his Charged Attacks ★ Charged Attack' charging period can be used to float over bodies of water

Use Hydro Reactions to Increase His Damage

The passive effect of Neuvillette allows him to gain stacks each time a Hydro-related reaction happens. Each stack will increase the damage dealt by his Charged Attacks. With this in mind, there is a lot of potential teammates for Neuvillette since he does not strictly need the Vaporize reaction to increase his damage greatly.

Use E. Skill and E. Burst to Create Droplets

Both his E. Skill and E. Burst can create Sourcewater Droplets for Neuvillette to use. Aside from Neuvillette, there are only two characters that can create Sourcewater Droplets, the Hydro Traveler and Sigewinne. Though both do not have any particular synergy with his kit, making them both relatively uncommon in his team comps.

Use Charged Attack to Absorb Droplets and Deal Damage

Sourcewater Droplets can drastically shorten the charging period of his Charged Attack. Without it, he will take a good few seconds charging and shortening the golden period of dealing damage with the team buffs. His Charged Attack also decreases his health but the Sourcewater Droplet absorption heals it back

Charged Attack is Good For Floating Over Water

It may seem like a waste to use the Charged Attack without Sourcewater Droplets but it has a great purpose for exploration! The charging period and the actual attack duration makes Neuvillette float for some time which can be used to cross bodies of water.

Should You Pull for Neuvillette's Constellation Or Best Weapon?

C1 is a High Value Constellation

Signature VS Constellations
C1 or Tome of the Eternal Flow > C2

C1 Improves Various Team Performances

Neuvillette's C1 enables you to run him in teams that would not give him all three stacks from his "Heir to the Ancient Sea's Authority" passive, with the added interruption resistance also allowing you to refrain from totally needing a shield character. All of this makes it so that Neuvillete gains full benefit from this passive in teams where he normally wouldn't, which would elevate the total party damage overall.

However, while impactful, it is not necessary, and you'll find that Neuvillette will still be a reliable DPS character even without constellations. Getting his signature weapon is still a viable choice, especially if you have no plans to obtain the Battlepass Catalyst, Sacrificial Jade.

Recommendation if You Have Sacrificial Jade
C1 > C2 > Tome of the Eternal Flow

High Refines on Sacrificial Jade is Competitive

R5 (max refinement) Sacrificial Jade is almost as good as his signature weapon. R1 (no refinement) Sacrificial Jade is a decent alternative still, but it will be outclassed by Tome of the Eternal Flow. In this case, you can opt into getting investing in his constellations, or look to get his signature weapon still if you have no plans to max refine the Sacrificial Jade.
