It’s just a matter of a few days as soon Genshin Impact’s new 5-star character Nilou will be released. Players planning to summon her to need to have the best artifacts and weapons prepared for her build. 

Nilou is a simple character to build and her focus remains mainly on HP% scaling. But the only thing that lacks is, she does not have a dedicated artifact set that can take full advantage of her kit. 

But Nilou has incredible weapon choices that can boost her damage, and players can take advantage of them while utilizing her in battle. 

After Nilou’s release, players will be able to utilize her unique Bloom-focused gameplay on their teams. 

Nilou focuses on amplifying Bloom's reaction through her Ascension passive ability. While this can be ignored by the players, her best and most damaging playstyle utilizes her synergy with the Dendro element. 

This is exactly the playstyle that the Genshin Impact players want to build around. They need to choose artifacts that can increase her HP% as well as Bloom damage potential and weapons increasing her HP and Elemental Mastery. 

Artifacts That Are Best for Nilou in Genshin Impact: 

So, it is quite normal for the players wishing to increase Nilou’s HP% and Elemental Mastery to maximize damage from her unique synergy with the Bloom reaction. 

Though there is no set that focuses on boosting these stats, hopefully, one will arrive in the upcoming days. 

For now, players can select between a mix of the Tenacity of the Millelith Set and the Gilded Dreams set or the Tenacity set and the Heart of Depth setting. 

Both of them use the Millelith set for the added HP% that it grants Nilou. One uses the Gilded Dreams set in order to boost her EM, whereas the other utilizes the Heart of Depth set to boost her Hydro damage. 

Both sets are viable and players will wish to choose the one that maximizes their substats with a focus on HP, ER, and Elemental Mastery. 

The credit goes to Nilou’s damage mostly coming from Bloom, she does not require many crit stats, thus, this makes building her a lot easier.  

Best Weapons for Nilou in Genshin Impact: 

For the players of Genshin Impact planning to summon Nilou, there are three best weapons available on the featured banner now. 

The signature weapon named the Key of Khaj-Nisut boosts her damage along with providing her with plenty of extra health. The Jade Cutter is a similarly powerful weapon and is a good choice for a Hydro damage-focused Nilou. 

There’s another amazing choice for Nilou namely, the new 4-star sword Xiphos’ Moonlight that grants plenty of Elemental Mastery and extra Energy Recharge for her. 

At the time of Nilou’s banner, players can grab all these three weapons, and those with extra Primogems may give summoning a try. 

The best 4-star weapons for Nilou are the Sapwood Blade, the Sacrificial Sword, the Iron Sting, and the Favonius Sword. 

The players of Genshin Impact will surely want to experience these weapons and check which one fits Nilou and her team the most.
