For mono-geo or geo flex teams, Ningguang is a four-star geo catalyst wielding character that works best. But as a sub-DPS, she can fit into many teams due to her versatility. She has a long range, causes a lot of damage to single targets, and can seamlessly switch between rotations to suit your needs.Memory of Dust is Ningguang's finest weapon, while Archaic Petra is her best artifact combination.Our recommendations for selecting artifacts for Ningguang are to prioritize energy recharge, attack%, and crit..

You should level every skill that Ningguang has since they are all crucial to her damage output. But while you're still leveling her up, we advise you to level her elemental burst, regular attack, and elemental skill in that order: .

Ningguang is an attack-scaling DPS with a relatively low basic attack, and her kit is focused on doing single target damage. To succeed, she needs a great deal of investment in both herself and her team, and she is blessed with many stars.

Combining Ningguang with other geo characters such as Genshin Impact's Zhongli or Genshin Impact's Albedo yields good results.Since their geo elemental resonance amplifies geo damage, .

Utilizing Ningguang

While Ningguang's charged strikes provide some reasonable damage, particularly when she has acquired Star Jades, her standard attacks are somewhat weak. Consequently, you want to try to include charged strikes into her typical combos.

Either start with one, two, or three regular attacks that lead into a charged attack, or link four charged attacks in a row. Her greatest combo in melee circumstances is usually one regular attack, one charged attack, then a dash to animation cancel, while two normal attacks, one charged attack, and a dash is a more dependable, all-purpose combination in all other scenarios.

To get a loop of , you should normally go for her skill and burst.Repeat after doing skill -> burst -> six seconds -> skill -> six seconds -> burst -> skill -> 12 seconds. Additionally, sprint in the direction of an adversary, pivot to face away from them, and then utilize her skill to get the most out of her Jade Screen. You may try different approaches, but this is the most reliable technique to guarantee that an adversary is really damaged on screen.

What weapon is the best for Ningguang?

Ningguang's greatest in-slot weapon is Memory of Dust since it enhances her assault and works in perfect harmony with her crystallization powers. Another excellent choice is Lost Prayer to the Sacred Winds, which increases Ningguang's movement speed and elemental damage bonus. However, if you use Ningguang in a quickswap rotation, the talent isn't as helpful since she won't remain on the field long enough to benefit from it.

The forgeable Prototype Amber and the battle pass prize Solar Pearl are both good choices if you're searching for something less expensive; Prototype Amber improves her team's capacity to sustain itself, while Solar Pearl increases her own attack.

Memory of Dust	Base stat: attack Skill: increases the strength of shields by 20%. Hits that land on enemies increase attack by 4% for eight seconds. Maximum five stacks. This can only occur once every 0.3 seconds. While the equipping character is shielded, their attack increases by 100%	Gacha

Which antiques are the best for Ningguang?

Archaic Petra is the ideal artifact set for Genshin Impact's Ningguang as it increases her geo damage and provides a team-wide bonus. Although its benefits don't stack, Noblesse Oblige is still a great choice for team-wide boosts. As a result, you should only ever have one character equipped with Noblesse Oblige at a time.

Another intriguing alternative is to retrace Bolide, which has shield-focused talents that increase Ningguang's personal damage and have similarities to the Memory of Dust catalyst.

Artifact set	Effect	How to obtain
Archaic Petra	Two equipped: geo damage bonus +15% Four equipped: when you obtain an elemental shard via a crystallize reaction, party members gain a 35% damage bonus for that element for ten seconds.

Noblesse Oblige	Two equipped: elemental burst damage +20% Four equipped: using an elemental burst increases the entire party’s attack by 20% for 12 seconds. This cannot stack	Clear Pool and Mountain Cavern domain in Minlin, Mt. Aozang
Retracing Bolide	Two equipped: shield strength +35% Four equipped: while protected by a shield, gain an additional 40% normal and charged attack damage	Domain of Guyun in the Sea of Clouds, Guyun Stone Forest

Which Genshin Impact Ningguang team comparisons are the best?

In a mono-geo or mono-geo flex squad, Ningguang performs best. Although her equipment is designed for a DPS position, she may also serve as an Itto team's battery and sub-DPS.

She works effectively in the second geo position with both Zhongli and Albedo for a Ningguang on-field DPS squad. A third geo is usually a solid choice, and the fourth slot should be used for a buffer or an off-field support such as Bennett or Fischl.

Alternatively, Bennett and Xiangling, Yae Miko and Fischl, or Zhongli and Albedo once again may be paired with Ningguang to create potent crystalise teams that do a lot of damage.

These are a few of our top Ningguang team competitions. She can fit into a number of teams since she is a very adaptable unit, so feel free to try different combinations and find which works best for you. Click on each character's symbol to see the separate build guidelines for that character.
