Overview

  • On-field Geo damage dealer
  • Crystallize carry

Navia is a Geo claymore user whose damage comes in bursts. Every Crystallize shard the party picks up, and every Lunar-Crystallize reaction, gives her a stack of Crystal Shrapnel. Her Elemental Skill spends those stacks to fire a spread of shots, and the more stacks and the closer she stands, the harder it hits. For a few seconds after the skill, her normal, charged and plunging attacks turn into Geo and deal extra damage, so you fill the gaps between skill casts with those.

She wants teammates of Pyro, Electro, Cryo or Hydro, because each one (up to two) raises her ATK and they also create the Crystallize reactions she feeds on. Build her for ATK, Geo damage and crits, with enough Energy Recharge to have her burst ready, since the burst's cannon fire also grants Crystal Shrapnel.

Weapons

Best first. Every claymore on this list links to its page.

  1. Verdict ★★★★★

    Her signature claymore. ATK, CRIT Rate and an Elemental Skill damage bonus that charges up from the same Crystallize shards she already collects.

  2. Beacon of the Reed Sea ★★★★★

    High CRIT Rate and an ATK bonus that switches on when her skill hits. A very close second.

  3. Redhorn Stonethresher ★★★★★

    A large CRIT DMG stat makes it a fine pick even though its passive does nothing for her.

  4. Serpent Spine ★★★★

    The strongest 4-star choice. CRIT Rate plus a damage bonus that builds while she stays on the field, which suits her.

  5. Tidal Shadow ★★★★

    Craftable at the Blacksmith. Gives ATK, and its passive turns on whenever a teammate heals her, so pair it with a healer.

Artifact sets

  1. Nighttime Whispers in the Echoing Woods 4-piece

    Made for her. The Geo bonus after her skill is much larger while she stands in a Crystallize shield, which she gets constantly from her own shard collection.

  2. Gladiator's Finale + Archaic Petra 2-piece each

    ATK plus Geo damage. A solid stopgap while you farm better pieces.

  3. Nighttime Whispers in the Echoing Woods + Archaic Petra 2-piece each

    Use two-piece of each if your four-piece substats are poor.

Teams

  • Navia with Furina and Xilonen

    Furina applies Hydro off the field for Crystallize and buffs damage. Xilonen lowers Geo resistance and Bennett adds ATK and healing. Furina and Bennett count toward her ATK passive.

  • Lunar-Crystallize Navia

    Columbina and Furina keep Hydro up so Lunar-Crystallize keeps feeding her Crystal Shrapnel, Linnea makes it a two-Moonsign team, heals, and lowers enemy Geo resistance near Lumi.

  • Budget Navia

    Xiangling and Bennett supply Pyro for Crystallize and fill both of her ATK passive slots. Zhongli shields, which also keeps her protected while she aims.

Tips

  • Before casting her skill, try to collect three or more Crystal Shrapnel stacks. Stacks beyond three still add damage, so it is worth waiting a moment if more shards are lying around.
  • Stand close to the target when you fire. Her damage is highest when all of the shots land on a single enemy.
  • Use the few seconds after her skill to attack. That is the window when her attacks become Geo and deal bonus damage.
  • Holding the skill pulls in nearby shards while you aim, which is handy when shards dropped out of reach.

Other character guides recommend Navia as a teammate in these teams.

Talents

Normal Attack Blunt Refusal
Normal Attack Performs up to 4 consecutive strikes. Charged Attack Drains Stamina over time to perform continuous spinning attacks against all nearby opponents. At the end of the sequence, performs a more powerful slash. Plunging Attack Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.
Elemental Skill Ceremonial Crystalshot
When a character in the party obtains an Elemental Shard created from the Crystallize reaction, or when they trigger the Lunar-Crystallize reaction, Navia will gain 1 Crystal Shrapnel stack. Navia can have up to 6 stacks of Crystal Shrapnel at once. Each time Crystal Shrapnel gain is triggered, the duration of the Crystal Shrapnel stacks you already have will be reset. Through the Lunar-Crystallize reaction, Navia will gain up to 1 Crystal Shrapnel stack every second. When she fires, Navia will consume all Crystal Shrapnel stacks and open her elegant yet lethal Gunbrella, firing multiple Rosula Shardshots that can penetrate opponents, dealing Geo DMG to opponents hit. When 0/1/2/3 or more stacks of Crystal Shrapnel are consumed, 5/7/9/11 Rosula Shardshots will be fired respectively. The more Rosula Shardshots that strike a single opponent, the greater the DMG dealt to them. When all 11 Rosula Shardshots strike, 200% of the original amount of DMG is dealt. In addition, when more than 3 stacks of Crystal Shrapnel are consumed, every stack consumed beyond those 3 will increase the DMG dealt by this Gunbrella attack by an additional 15%.
