Genshin Impact: Neuvillette best weapons guide

The best build for Neuvillette in Genshin Impact starts with choosing his best weapon. Neuvillette has plenty of options to choose from, allowing any player to deal tons of damage regardless of how much money you spend. Here are some of your best options:

• Tome of the Eternal Flow is Neuvillette’s best 5-star weapon option, and overall his best-in-slot. This weapon increases his Crit DMG by 88% and his ATK by 541. Additionally, this weapon has a passive that increases the wearer’s HP by 16% and the wearer’s charged attack DMG by 14% whenever the wearer gains or loses HP, which can stack up to 3 times. Finally, this weapon will also restore energy based on the stacks gained from this weapon. This will help him deal more damage and increase his energy regen.
• Sacrificial Jade is one of Neuvillette’s strongest 4-star options, but beware, as this weapon is a Battle Pass weapon. To obtain this weapon, you’ll need to buy the Battle Pass. This weapon provides a valuable Crit Rate buff, which should help you focus on Neuvillette’s other stats like Crit DMG while artifact farming. This weapon also increases his max HP and Elemental Mastery significantly, two stats Neuvillette can take advantage of.
• The Widsith will be Neuvillette’s best 4-star option for those who cannot afford the Sacrificial Jade. This is a strong weapon that provides a high Crit DMG boost as well as some strong offensive buffs, either an ATK boost, an Elemental DMG boost, or an Elemental Mastery boost.

• Marechaussee Hunter – This set is solid for Neuvillette, as it boosts his Charged Attack damage by 15%, and increases his Crit Rate by 12% whenever he loses HP, up to 3 times. Do note, if you already have a lot of Crit Rate in your stats, this weapon may lose effectiveness, as you are essentially getting 36% Crit Rate for free.
• Heart of Depth – If you have balanced Crit Rate and Crit Damage stats, you might be better off using this set instead. It will give you a free 15% Hydro DMG Bonus as well as a Charged Attack bonus of 30% after using your Elemental Skill. If you have superior stats on the Heart of Depth set, then the passives here will be more useful to you.
