Navia debuted in version 4.3, and she revitalized the long-forgotten Geo element, hence why many people are looking for the best build and team comp for her in Genshin Impact. With this character being a fantastic main DPS, it is quite important to pair her with good party members to make her shine even more. And as usual, the best artifacts and weapons for Navia also go a long way. So, if you’re lucky enough to have the president of Spina di Rosula, prepare to wreak havoc with this lady.
Best DPS Build for Navia in Genshin Impact
Navia excels as a damage dealer from the Geo element, which we hadn’t seen since the release of Itto. However, Navia has even more tools to raze the battlefield and keep doing damage continuously, making her a great on-field fighter. Here are the best artifacts and weapons in Genshin Impact that we recommend for building your Navia.
Weapons
Like other premium characters, Navia’s best weapon is her featured one. If you didn’t know, each patch that brings a new 5-star character comes with a specific weapon that usually synergizes great with them. In case you don’t have it, here are other options for her:
- Verdict (Best):
- Increases ATK by 20%. When characters in your party obtain Elemental Shards from Crystallize reactions, the equipping character will gain 1 Seal, increasing Elemental Skill DMG by 18%. The Seal lasts for 15 seconds, and the user may have up to 2 Seals at once. The user’s Seals will disappear 0.2 seconds after their Elemental Skill deals DMG.
- Serpent Spine:
- Every 4s a character is on the field; they will deal 6% more DMG and take 3% more DMG. This effect has a maximum of 5 stacks and will not reset if the character leaves the field but will clear when the character takes DMG.
If you have enough Primogems, we recommend pulling for her weapon. Given how crucial the Crystallize reactions are for her skills, her featured Claymore will do wonders. If not, the Serpent Spine is your next best option. In case you don’t have any other weapons for her, equip her with a good Claymore and work toward getting Serpent Spine.
Best Artifact Set
For Navia, there is only one artifact set for her we consider the best. The Nighttime Whispers in the Echoing Woods set is perfect for her because it increases her Geo damage, which is something a main DPS of this element will need. These are the stats of the set:
- Nighttime Whispers in the Echoing Woods:
- 2-Piece Bonus: ATK +18%.
- 4-Piece Bonus: After using an Elemental Skill, gain a 20% Geo DMG Bonus for 10s. While under a shield granted by the Crystallize reaction, the above effect will increase by 150%, and this additional increase disappears 1s after that shield is lost.
Best Team Comp for Navia
With the best artifacts and weapons for Navia out of the way, it’s time we shift toward finding her a good team. She’s a main DPS, so she’ll need great support to improve her damage output and keep her alive, especially since she’ll be on the field most of the time. Here are some compositions we recommend:
- Main DPS: Navia
- Sub DPS: Fischl/Sara/Yelan
- Support: Zhongli/Beidou
- Healer: Bennett
We’ve added different characters for each role, so you can mix and match as you see fit. However, if you manage to get any of the Premium ones we listed, the team comp will be better. The crucial members are Zhongli to trigger elemental reactions and Bennett to improve Navia’s damage and heal her. Fischl and Sara are there because they work as batteries, with the former being the best option.
Overall, Navia is a great character whose goal is to make her element shine once more. We hope HoYoverse continues improving Geo characters because we love using some of them, such as Noelle, who’s still one of the best DPS in the game. In the meantime, this fancy Fontaine citizen will remain at our side to cause chaos elegantly.
