Is Nefer Worth Pulling? Pros and Cons

Nefer is one of the best Dendro DPS in the game, and her ability to trigger Lunar Bloom makes her extremely strong. However, she does have a dependency on Lauma to be considered among the best DPS units in the game. Here are the pros and cons of Nefer, giving you a quick insight into whether she is worth it or not. As you can see, Nefer has equal pros and cons. I would only recommend pulling for Nefer if you already have Lauma. Otherwise, you would easily notice the drop in damage for Nefer, compared to other top-tier DPS units.

Nefer’s C1 vs Signature Weapon (R1): Which to Get?

If you have decided that Nefer is worth pulling, the next question you would have is whether to get her C1 or signature weapon. Both her C1 and signature weapon have similar value, with her signature slightly having an edge. However, if you already have a good 5-star catalyst that provides Crit and Elemental Mastery, then it would be worth getting Nefer’s C1 instead.

Best Genshin Impact Nefer Builds

With everything said and done, it’s time to check the best Nefer build in Genshin Impact. The following build will make Nefer a DPS powerhouse. Now, if you don’t have the above options, then check out the alternatives given below.

Lauma Build Weapons: Best and Alternatives

Reliquary of Truth is the best catalyst for Nefer, which makes sense as it’s also her signature weapon. This weapon gives a huge Crit Damage bonus stat, a ton of elemental mastery, and increases bloom damage. If you don’t have the resources to spend on her signature weapon, other 5-star alternatives like Nightweaver’s Looking Glass, Sunny Morning Sleep-In, Starcaller’s Watch, and A Thousand Floating Dreams are also great options. For her 4-star options, use Nod-Krai Craftable weapon ‘Blackmarrow Lantern’ or the new Genshin Luna II weapon ‘Dawning Frost’.

Nefer Build Artifacts: Best and Alternatives

Night of the Sky’s Unveiling is the only Artifact you should be using on Nefer. This artifact set provides additional Elemental Mastery, alongside increasing Crit Rate when Lunar reactions are triggered nearby. Furthermore, this artifact also increases Lunar rection damage by 10% for all party members, making it a massive all-around asset.

Best Teams for Nefer Builds in Genshin Impact

Nefer’s teams are slightly restricted to specific characters. First, she cannot trigger Hyperbloom reactions, making her stuck to Lunar bloom only. Other than that, you need to have Lauma in the team; otherwise, Nefer’s damage output drops by 30-35%. For a hydro application, C6 Aino is the best option. Other than that, you can either go with a sub-dps or healer for sustain. Nahida is one of the best sub-dps for Nefer. For healers, you can use Kokomi over Aino, or Baizhu over Nahida. Kuki Shinobu also works as both a healer and support for Nefer teams.

Genshin Impact Nefer Kit: Talents and Constellations

Genshin Impact Nefer Kit Explanation

Before you check out Nefer’s talent and constellations, here is a quick overview of her kit:

Nefer’s Normal Attack: Her charged attack turns her into a snake, allowing her to slither between enemies and deal AoE Dendro damage when she exits her state. When she uses her Elemental Skill, or while sprinting, it will not cause her to exit the state. Nefer’s Elemental Skill: Nefer charges forward, dealing AoE Dendro damage, and enters the Shadow Dance state. While having at least 1 verdant dew in this state, her charged attack is enhanced. Nefer’s Elemental Burst: Deals massive AoE Dendro damage to enemies by consuming all Veils of Falsehood stacks. Nefer’s Passives: All Bloom reactions are converted into Lunar Bloom. After using her Skill, all dendro and bountiful cores on the field are turned into seeds of deceit. These don’t trigger Hyperbloom or Burgeon or burst on their own; instead, Nefer can consume them to have stacks of Veil of Falshoods to increase her Elemental Mastery and Burst damage. Every point in Nefer’s Elemental Mastery above 500 increases her ATK. She also gains 25% more rewards when dispatched on a Nod-Krai Expedition for 20 hours and can obtain intelligence from a variety of sources.
