Navia Is A Geo DPS That Utilizes Crystalize

Navia What Kind Of Character

Navia is a geo DPS that focuses on using Elemental Skill as a source of damage. Everytime Navia get a shield from Crystalize reaction, she will get a bullet stacks that would increase the damage of Elemental Skill.

Navia can work well as a quickswap DPS that is only on-field to unleash her Elemental Burst and Elemental Skill similar to like Tighnari or a Main DPS wherein she will be on-field to deal powerful Geo Damage from her Elemental Skills and the geo infusion it gives to Navia's Normal Attack.

Nighttime Whispers In The Echoing Woods Fits Navia's Kit

Navia increases damage when she absorbs Crystalize. This artifact works well with Navia and the best for boosting damage. If you are still farming for the perfect set of Echoing Woods, you can opt to use ATK set and Geo Set.

When Using Golden Troupe, Opt For A Quick Swap Playstyle

DMG Bonus is very important for Navia since she has many sources of ATK with Passive and outside buffs making Golden Troupe an amazing set. However, when using Golden Troupe, make sure to opt for a Quickswap so you do not lose the DMG boost from 4pc. set.

Increase ATK & DMG Bonus While Aiming For 70/140 CRIT Rate & DMG

To deal huge damage for Navia, you need a classic DPS build focusing on ATK and DMG Bonus. For CRIT Rate and DMG, aim to have a 1:2 ratio.

Her main damage source, Elemental Skill, increases damage depending on the number of bullets based on the amount of Crystalize absorbed and shoot those bullets like a shotgun. You need to produce crystalize with Elemental Burst and such then use Skill at max stat. when fighting using Navia.

Greatly Buffs Elemental Skill By Absorbing 6 Crystalize Shards.

▲Use Hold Skill to absorb the shards around.

3 Stacks6 Stacks
3 Stack
6 Stack

The damage of Elemental Skill increases depending on the number of Geo Bullets that hit the opponents. With 3 stack, the number of bullets increases by 11 and with 6 stacks, the damage can increase 45%. You can use Hold Skill to to absorb Crystalize shards from far to gain stacks.

Use Elemental Burst To Gain Crystalize Stacks Faster

▲Every hit gives a stack. (Every 2.4 seconds)

Effects Of Elemental Burst

- When the damage hit, one stack of bullet is gained.
 └Once every 2.4 seconds.

Kachina also could be used as the F2P option here, her skill is pretty decent to trigger the crystallization I guess (cmiiw)

Anonymous 12

Isn't Geo Traveler also good? He totally enjoy the Pyro Ressonance and Navia's bullets ignore his/hers Geo Constructions. Added to all other good parts of playing with him/her (energy, critical, fast cooldown dmg).

To the person giving me advise on Albedo thank you , I have still been unsure but that is a good idea , I dont have much time left but will try it . I have been practicing her rotations in the event also. thank you again

Anonymous 10

I use R5 Sacrificial greatsword because you get to use her E 3 times at once.

Anonymous 9

To the person with Albedo I would say try and farm her Artifact set (while contemplating) and if you get a decent one she is worth it. Albedo fits as well with her as Big Zo and the artifacts help her go crazy. Just put Bennett on all Att% and her damage gets close to top tier DPS.
