Basically, Nilou is not a very difficult character to control. You just need to master the following 5 tips to be able to master the ‘Water God’ in Genshin Impact.
Understanding a character’s mechanics is very important in Genshin Impact, and with the number of new characters being regularly introduced into the game, it can become difficult to keep up, especially if the unit has rather complex mechanics. . However, if you can master those characters, being able to create many magical combos with great damage is not a difficult thing for players anymore.
Nilou is one of the latest additions to the list of playable characters in Genshin Impact that has a rather unique mechanism of action. In general, Nilou’s kit will be quite lengthy and somewhat confusing for players who do not know how she works. Therefore, to help players use Nilou properly, here are some mistakes people should avoid when using Nilou in Genshin Impact.
5. Not understanding the mechanics of Elemental Skills

Nilou has a rather unique Elemental Skill in Genshin Impact, which players can use however they want to play her. After using his Elemental Skill, Nilou will go into Spinning mode. The player can then use her skills or basic attacks, each with their own effects:
– Basic Attack: Effectively Produces Dance of Sword Storm
– Elemental skill: Effectively Produce Spinning Dance
After two “jumps”, the player should pay attention to the third jump.
Performing Sword Storm Dance (press Basic Attack) will cause Nilou to enter the Moonlight Praying effect, where the player can continue to deal Water elemental damage for the next 8 seconds. Perform the Spinning Dance steps (press Elemental Skill) creates a Water Ring of Purification for 12 seconds. Nilou will lose the ability to attach the element of Water to attacks and will instead create a small water ring below the active character. This water ring will continuously press Thuy on enemies, allowing the player to create Sum Suê reactions with ease.
The idea behind this mechanic is to give players the choice of how they want to play Nilou. Entering Moonlight of Prayer allows the dancer to stay on the field, dealing damage as DPS in Genshin Impact. Meanwhile, creating the Water Ring of Purification will make Nilou a powerful Water seal support. In this state, it is best for the player to switch to the main DPS or a character in the next combo because Nilou’s role is now done.
4. Do not read carefully Nilou’s passive genius

The content of Nilou’s passive genius is quite verbose, so it’s understandable if players don’t really enjoy reading it. A simple understanding of passive endowment would be like this:
– If all characters in the party are of the element Water and Thao (and have at least one character of Water or Thao), Nilou’s third jump will grant the Golden Cup Blessing effect for 30 seconds.
– The Golden Cup Blessing will turn the Grass Nucleus created by Sum Sue into the Spill Nucleus.
– Spiral Nucleus explodes in less than a second, unlike Grass Nucleus which lasts up to 6 seconds before detonating. Players cannot use Bountiful Cores to activate Hyperbloom or Burgeon.
– During the Golden Cup Blessing effect, the character taking Thao elemental damage will gain 100 Elemental Mastery of the whole team for 10 seconds.
The Spilled Core is a bright spot in Nilou’s unique gameplay and will become even stronger when combined with the remaining passive genius:
– For every 1000 HP over 30000, the damage inflicted by these Overflow Nuclei is increased by 9%. Up to 400%.
By combining the above, players will be able to continuously generate Spilled Nucleus and maintain a constant amount of explosive damage on the field at a relatively large number. However, you should also be mentally prepared with a tough enough healer character because at this point even the character on the field will also take damage.

3. The Purifying Water Ring should not be underestimated

While it may seem like a waste not to keep Nilou on the field, players shouldn’t underestimate her Purifying Water Ring. While it may not deal damage, since the player’s primary focus is on creating Spill Cores, this water ring can be more useful than attaching a Water element to Nilou’s attacks.
For example, if the player enters the Moonlight Praying state, Nilou will have to stay on the field. This means that the player must use the Grass-type characters before Nilou. Therefore, for a few seconds, the ability to suppress Thao on the field will not receive the full buff from the Golden Cup Blessing effect.
Meanwhile, if Nilou is working as a support in Genshin Impact, she can go to the field first to create the Purification Water Ring, after which the player can bring out the Grass-type characters to create the Spilled Core. more effectively on the battlefield.
2. No healers in Nilou’s team

The passive genius that requires the player to take damage from the Spill Nucleus in order to get a buff that increases 100 Elemental Mastery of the whole team can be considered a pretty buff… self-destructing. Because if taken care of, the amount of damage that you can deal in a combo cycle can be very large, enough to defeat your own character. Therefore, if Nilou’s squad doesn’t have a hard enough healer, the problem of this squad will be extremely difficult.
In addition, because Nilou’s first passive talent requires that only Water and Thao characters exist in the squad, the player’s choice will be even more limited if they want to. Make full use of her power. Here, we are left with only two options, Sangonomiya Kokomi and Barbara, which can be seen as extremely secretive for a new character.
