Deliver judgment with the best Genshin Impact Neuvillette build and ensure that even the gods themselves won’t escape justice. Fontaine’s Chief Justice is not quite the simple man he professes to be and has immense power hidden up his frilled sleeves. This 5-Star Hydro unit wielding a catalyst is a strong damage dealer based around the manipulation of his own HP.

Neuvillette’s kit contains a special Charged Attack, which heals him up as you charge it up by generating Sourcewater Droplets and then consumes HP as you unleash a powerful beam of water.

His Elemental Skill, O Tears, I Shall Repay, summons an area-of-effect attack that deals Hydro damage based on Neuvillette’s Maximum HP. On a hit, three Sourcewater Droplets are created.

Neuvillette’s Elemental Burst, O Tides, I Have Returned, unleashed another area-of-effect Hydro attack with damage based on his Maximum HP. After two follow-up attacks, it generates a total of six Sourcewater Droplets.

He’s got some helpful passive skills as well: Neuvillette’s Hydro Damage increases with his Maximum HP and Neuvillette gains a buff to the damage of his Charged Attack whenever an ally triggers an elemental reaction with Hydro, so you’ll want to play him in a varied composition.

Neuvillette’s signature weapon, Tome of the Eternal Flow, is naturally the tool best suited for him. Aside from boosting Critical Hit Damage and Maximum HP, this catalyst buffs the damage dealt by the wearer’s Charged Attack when HP is decreased or increased. Once three stacks of effect are reached, it’ll also restore Energy to the wielder.

This combination of effects will greatly increase the damage Neuvillette can deal.

Best weapons for Neuvillette in Genshin Impact:

  • Tome of the Eternal Flow (5-Star)
  • Lost Prayer to the Sacred Winds (5-Star)
  • Jadefall’s Splendor (5-Star)
  • Sacrificial Jade (4-Star)
  • Prototype Amber (4-Star)

Best Neuvillette artifacts – Genshin Impact

Neuvillette benefits most from the Marechaussee Hunter set, as this equipment will increase his Normal and Charged Attack DMG and further boost his CRIT Rate whenever he gains or loses HP — since Neuvillette’s gameplay revolves around this anyway, this is a natural pick.

Best Artifact Sets for Neuvillette in Genshin Impact:

  • Marechaussee Hunter (4) – +15% Normal and Charged Attack DMG, +12% CRIT Rate for 5s (stacks up to three times) when the wearer’s current HP changes.
  • Nymph’s Dream (4) – +15% Hydro DMG, creates stacks of Mirrored Nymph for 8s after using Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attacks, Elemental Skills and Elemental Bursts; having 1, 2, and 3 stacks increases ATK and Hydro DMG in three stages.
  • Heart of Depth (4) – +15% Hydro DMG, +30% Normal and Charged Attack DMG for 15s after using Elemental Skill.

Best stats for Neuvillette in Genshin Impact:

  • Flower: HP (main stat), HP %, CRIT DMG, CRIT Rate, Elemental Mastery
  • Plume: ATK (main stat), HP %, CRIT DMG, CRIT Rate, Elemental Mastery

Best Neuvillette teams – Genshin Impact

Neuvillette can play the Main DPS role in a great variety of teams, as long as you have enough off-field characters to support him — the Iudex himself requires a lot of field time.

  • Neuvillette (Main DPS), Furina (Sub DPS), Kazuha (Support), Xilonen (Support)

You’re not looking for many elemental reactions with this hypercarry composition — it’s all about Neuvillette blasting enemies as strongly as he can. Furina provides offensive buffs and changes the team’s HP, assisting Neuvillette in triggering his Artifact Set. Kazuha and Xilonen both have tons of Elemental RES shred to offer, weakening enemies. Furina can heal the team in the case of an emergency, providing enough survivability.

Replacing Kazuha with Mavuika evolves this composition into a potent Vaporize team.

  • Neuvillette (Main DPS), Furina (Sub DPS), Escoffier (Sub DPS), Layla (Support)

Adding two Cryo characters to the Neuvillette and Furina core builds an excellent Freeze team. Escoffier specializes in Cryo-Hydro compositions, making her a perfect addition, and Layla can add a bit more survivability into the mix with her shields, assuring that Furina can focus on her offensive duties.

  • Neuvillette (Main DPS), Raiden Shogun (Sub DPS), Nahida (Sub DPS), Kokomi (Support)

Raiden Shogun and Nahida are a powerful duo when it comes to creating Hyperbloom teams and in Neuvillette they’ve found a perfect accomplice. Add a healer of your choice to complete the party — Kokomi is a good one due to doing her job from off-field.

Neuvillette ascension materials – Genshin Impact

You’ll want to quickly raise Neuvillette’s level when you finally pull him, which means that you’ll need to farm his ascension materials. You’ll also require some material to upgrade his talents.

Here’s what you need to get Neuvillette to level 90:

  • Varunada Lazurite Sliver x1
  • Varunada Lazurite Fragment x9
  • Varunada Lazurite Chunk x9
  • Varunada Lazurite Gemstone x6
  • Transoceanic Pearl x18
  • Transoceanic Chunk x30
  • Xenochromatic Crystal x36
  • Lumitoile x168
  • Dew of Repudiation x46
  • Mora x2,092,530

Varunada Lazurite can be obtained from any Hydro-affiliated boss on the world map, such as the Hydro Hypostasis below Watatsumi Island. Transoceanic Pearls and Chunks as well as Xenochromatic Crystals are drops from the crabs and sea creatures inhabiting Fontaine.

Lumitoile is another Fontaine-exclusive material and can be collected near bodies of water on beaches or on the walls of buildings once update 4.1 has rolled out. The best way to earn more Mora in the game is to farm golden Ley Line Blossoms.

Here’s what you need to upgrade all of Neuvillette’s talents to their maximum level:

  • Transoceanic Pearl x18
  • Transoceanic Chunk x66
  • Xenochromatic Crystal x93
  • Teachings of Equity x9
  • Guide to Equity x63
  • Philosophies of Equity x114
  • Everamber x18
  • Crown of Insight x3
  • Mora x4,957,500

For the materials already mentioned, check above. You’ll need to visit the Pale Forgotten Glory Domain on Monday, Thursday, and Sunday to farm Scrolls of Equity. Everambers are a boss item only dropped by Apep, the Dendro Dragon.

Crowns of Insight are a rare item gained from time-limited events or regional reward mechanics like the Grand Narukami Shrine in Inazuma, the Tree of Dreams in Sumeru, Fontaine’s Fountain of Lucine, or Natlan’s Tablet of Tona.
