Nilou is a 5 star character in Genshin Impact. What makes her unique is that she requires a restrictive team composition to maximize her abilities. This Nilou Best Team Comps Guide only focuses on Dendro and Hydro characters in your party so you can make the most of their gear. We list ideal characters based on their elements and roles, and you can mix and match accordingly.
Best team comps for Nilou in Genshin Impact
Nilou’s passive talent, Court of Dancing Petals, makes her a rather odd character. The talent provides amazing buffs, but only if you only have Dendro and Hydro characters in your roster.
Because of this, you’ll never bother with Electro-based reactions like Quicken, Aggravate, and Hyperbloom, or Pyro-based reactions like Burning and Burgeon. Instead, you have Bountiful Cores that lead to faster and bigger explosions when Bloom triggers.

Hydro Characters
Healer: Kokomi or Barbara: Kokomi is the better option here thanks to her ability that acts like a turret. It can heal your active character and damage nearby enemies and apply Hydro in return.
Sub DPS: Xingqiu: Xingqiu remains one of the best characters in the game despite being only a 4-star character. His burst allows for continuous Hydro and attacks while he’s off the field.
Sub DPS: Yelan: Yelan also has a function similar to Xingqiu due to her off-field application despite being a 5-star character.
dendro characters
Main DPS: Nahida: The Dendro Archon is one of the most powerful characters in Genshin Impact. Her elemental ability binds enemies together, allowing them to be hit by the same instance of damage, while her passive abilities greatly increase elemental mastery.
Sub DPS: Dendro Traveler: The Traveler has often been vilified for having unconvincing kit. Thankfully, the Dendro empowerment grants a huge AoE field when the burst is cast, leading to reliable bloom procs.
Sub DPS: Collei: Finally, there’s Collei, who also has a similar function: apply Dendro to multiple enemies, combined with Hydro to generate Cores.
