Genshin Impact has released their third 5-star character from Sumeru, Nilou. She is a playable Hydro character that can deliver significant sub-DPS damage to opponents if paired with Dendro-element characters. But to fully maximize the damage she can provide, you must get the best weapons for Nilou.
Check out these 5 best weapons for Nilou:
1 – Key of Khaj-Nisut
This weapon will increase Nilou’s HP by 20%. When her Elemental Skill hits opponents, you gain the Grand Hymn effect for 20 seconds.
This effect will also increase Nilou’s Elemental Mastery by 0.12% of her Max HP. It can only trigger once every 0.3 seconds. When Nilou gains up to 3 stacks, the Elemental Mastery of all nearby party members will increase 0.2% of Nilou’s max HP for 20 seconds.
2 – Freedom-Sworn
This weapon will increase Nilou’s Damage by 10%. She will gain a Sigil of Rebellion when she triggers any Elemental Reactions. The effect can only be activated once every 0.5 seconds.
Once Nilou gains 2 Sigils of rebellion, all her nearby party members will gain Millennial Movement: Song of Resistance for 12 seconds.
The Millennial Movement: Song of Resistance can increase Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attack Damage by 16%. It will also increase the Attack by 20%.
3 – Sacrificial Sword
After Nilou deals damage to her opponent with her Elemental Skill, its cooldown has a 40% chance to end.
4 – Xiphos’ Moonlight
If Nilou is equipped with this weapon, the following effect will trigger every 10 seconds:
- She will gain 0.036% Energy Recharge for each Elemental Mastery for 12 seconds.
- Nilou’s party members can earn 30% of this buff for the same duration.
In multiple instances, this weapon can allow its buff to be stuck.
5 – Iron Sting
When Nilou deals Elemental Damage, it will increase all of her damage by 6% for 6 seconds. Its effect can stack up to 2 times and only occur once every 1 second.
