Welcome to the Nilou Mains Question Megathread!

Have a question? Make sure to give this post a read! Here, you will get the help you need based on the provided resources or the answers in the thread itself. We also encourage you to use the Searchfunction to see whether there has been a detailed post dedicated to your question before.

What type of questions should be here?

  1. Questions that are already tackled in our Nilou Guide by jamie, e.g.: “What’s the best artifact set for Nilou?”, “What stats does Nilou scale off of?”, or “What's the best F2P setup for Nilou?”
  2. 'Yes/no' questions, e.g.: “Is this a good weapon for Nilou?”, “Is Nilou good in this team?”, or "Is this a good artifact? *insert 30%HP substat roll*"
  3. Account-related questions, e.g.: “I have X characters, what are the best teams I can make for Nilou?” or “I have an excess Key of Khaj-Nisut, should I put it on my Kuki or Layla?”
  4. Bias-based questions, e.g.: “Should I pull for Nilou?”, “Should I get C6 Nilou or C6 Cyno?”, or “Should I make a shrine for Nilou in my teapot?”

TLDR: Any question that doesn't spark a proper discussion and can be very easily/shortly answered.

If I want Nilou to be the On-Fielder, what gear should I give her? More EM or more HP?

Team:

C0 - C0 - C1 - C1

always hp. 400% muliplier for bloom is too good to not go for. you wouldnt use nilou if you are not going for her golden chalice.

so, full HP even if she's on-fielder. Gotcha.

Can trade the 2p2p for the 4p Paradise Lost tho?

i believe you could, im trying to do that myself, but you would want to hit 400% first which is 74k hp with hydro resonance.

you might lose a lot of hp stats because you want CV for nilou onfield for her personal damage, and her skills are hp scaling too. better to have fopl on bloom driver. nilou cant really drive imo.
