He has that niche tech with the Viridescent Hunt for a bit of CC if you ever need it, though Niloubloom cores have good AOE by themselves anyway so yeah
The problem with AOE based teams is that Neuvillette overshadows them all. Especially versus Nilou teams, as both are hydro but Neuvillette teams have no issues against other elemental shields as he doesn’t have any teammate limitations.
Hey Jello, I think you accidentally overwrote the audio that was SUPPOSED to go from roughly 3:30-4:55 with the stuff that you say from 20:20 to 21:40. In the first part you are talking about Nilou's signature weapon and it abruptly pivots to Siegwinne talk, and then at the 20 minute mark you are talking about characters and the exact same audio plays.
the diference is that you can still use kafka as a normal dps and slot her in other teams without afecting her style, while nilou is uterly useless withouth bloom, they gave her way too low multipliers to do damage and a very restrictive condition in order for her blooms to work
she writes odd dystopia narratives that highlight the disconnected nature of the modern person in relation to societal structures they cannot understand or control?
@@juan.argueta You never play her in vape or mono hydro do you? Bcs i did & she did great especially in mono hydro. She gets even better after i got Furina. Plus what kind of damage people expect from her? She allow & buff the reaction itself. I have never seen a dummy trying hard to make her do more personal damage when the reaction itself is already strong. People need to learn that this is how she works and her team is literally one of the fastest to clear abyss
12:17 I'm glad someone else said it because I also feel like I'm dancing whenever I play with Nilou, they designed her kit really well and matches her as a dancer ✨
i love her dance-theme attacks. so sophisticated and beautiful. i also love her burst animation where you splashes a lotus-shaped water wave. So magnificent. However, 😭 I still want a slim blue- or white-colored signature sword for her. i crafted the fontaine sword and it looked so good on her. although i know it’s not her best weapon. So then now i got her signature sword Key of Khaj Nisut. It’s a powerful sword for her and it works 100% with her kit. but honestly, it looks awkward on her because it’s brown and it’s thick and looks heavy on Nilou. it’s a jarring design combination. I wish genshin would introduce weapon skins. Nilou deserves a signature sword that really matches her dainty design aesthetics.
Jello: “Kaveh is BiS in a scenario on Nilou teams” Kaveh mains: “YES” Jello: “it’s in her worst scenario (cryo shields) when you want to use literally any other team” Kaveh mains: “NO”
2:33 I somewhat disagree with this. Nahida makes the team very comfy but she's not absolutely essential. Before I got Nahida I used DMC and Collei and the team functioned very well still and got me a relatively easy 36* clear. I think this is one of Nilou's biggest strengths: she is dirt cheap to build (1/1/1 talents + random hp% off pieces are totally fine) and she is f2p friendly
I second this idea. I took longer times building my Kaveh full EM compared to how fast I threw HP artifacts on Nilou. Her biggest strength is how F2P she is with her entire kit.
Also went "????" when he said that there isn't a character that can apply as much Dendro as Nahida when Nilou's comps have 2 Dendro comps so it's not like you're running out easily. That and Alhaitham exists and he easily can get to a similar level to Nahida's Dendro application
Oh I would have loved if he spoke about Mona submarine! Did you know, Mona applies hydro on the enemy when you dash! Probably not the best team but it's fun!
I did sub in a half built level 70 mona after finally getting her and some of Nilou’s hydro teammates were stolen by yoimiya, and it was so comfy at the time that I ended up keeping the half built Mona in the team for abyss even when characters like yelan were available. I’m at a point with hydros now where I pretty much always have Mona benched but I feel like Imaginarium Theatre may have just saved her
As a Nilou main, I think there’s a good amount of variations without Nahida that are plenty strong if she has to go on another team. Collei, Yaoyao, and DMC tend to go really well with sword stance Nilou while Baizhu, Kirara, Kaveh, etc work better as the drivers. I try to go two of each element. Nilou really is a dancer because depending on her team lineup, the tempo you want to go out vastly changes.😅
As a nilou main. I have been using and clearing all abysses with her since her release. And i can say Nilou is actually pretty good against bosses, you don’t even need yelan or xq, because the bloom damage is so high. Basically 25-40k (depending who procs the blooms) twice every second, which is reasonable in single target
@@ad-pq5py if im not using nahida with nilou then im most likely using dmc+yaoyao. I dont have baizhu:( And i dont like collei or kirara with nilou. Its okay but there is downtime on them
I'm super happy that Ayato and Nilou work so well together. I love Ayato, but sadly don't use him as often as I used to, thanks to Neuvillette. (I love him too, though.) So finding a good team for him is a godsend!
So excited to bring my girly home tomorrow! Thanks for making me feel like my Nilou/Furina bloom team wasn't just copium because while I was going to play it either way, it's nice to know it works.
Nilou is my third favorite unit,and the only one out of my top 3 i am missing This video solidified my love for her,i am 100% pulling her 130 wishes and a dream
As a Nilou wanter and Kokomi and baizhu main, I am even more excited for her! I have 83 pulls saved up for her for her banner tmrw. Pray I win 50/50🙏 Edit: I went to pity but won 50/50! She is home
Just watched a TGS video (The Genshin Scientist - the best genshin TC imo and a very well respected TCer in general) and he gave Nilou the 4 most powerful f2p unit in the game right under the "big 3" Neuv, Alrechinnno, and Alhaitham. Alot of ppl were seething about it bc they hate her sm. But i think its a great place to have her. She is an insanely powerful dps.
The Yaoyao/Candace variant is my favorite. Yaoyao has the same thrusting CA that Hu Tao has so you can repeatedly apply hydro to enemies with N1CJ. I've found that to be the fastest way for her to apply hydro with Candace's infusion, personally. Added benefit to the jump cancel is that Yaoyao's A1 will throw additional radishes when you jump or sprint.
@@svenwalter4293 I think it means "1 Normal attack -> Charged attack --> jump (to cancel animation)". As a polearm user, going directly for a charged attack automatically starts with the unit doing a normal attack first, so there is no way to bypass it.
19:03 Sadly Mona doesn’t seem to be a hydro character according to your list. Here I have been using her on full EM to proc the blooms, without realizing that she can’t.
@@shenpai_ren I think I heard a rumor that Childe can used charged shots, his skill or his burst to apply hydro, but I’m not sure whether it’s true. To be fair though, Childe applies so much hydro that he completely overpowers the Dendro, so your Dendro character will be the one activating the bloom (and it needs to be an off fielder other than Nahida, so it narrows your team possibilities and damage).
@@ulrikruby yea probably, but on the other hand, dendro units are more likely to be built EM, so more damage? Plus Childe does have a hefty cooldown on E if he stays on for too long. Ik full well its not viable, but if hydro MC gets a spot, so can childe imo
@@shenpai_ren Everything is better than hydro traveler, that’s why I made my comment in the first place. I have personally tried using Childe, but I can’t find a good rotation, since he overpowers the Dendro, which means you have to switch but then you can’t switch back because his skill is on cooldown. That’s why I think catalyst characters are the best with Nilou, since you can always apply the element.
I've been looking forward to your updated Nilou guide for a long time! I remember watching your first guide for Nilou and I love seeing how much you've grown as a creator since then.
I'm quite surprised he didn't include Childe when covering the team section for Nilou. Regardless, great video as always. Edit: nevermind, just checked pinned comment lol
Your analysis got me in the mood to try out Nilou again. I love her, she's one of my favorite characters design-, gameplay- and story-wise, but every since Fontaine I was shifting my focus towards other teams that really good me excited to build and try out. Now seeing her in action again, how well her team still performs, how flexible the slots are and just generally how fun it is to play, definitely convinced me to upgrade my Nilou/Bloom comp and run it through the Abysses again.
I have a high invested Nilou team and run her with Nahida, Yelan and Yao Yao. Higher investment lets you balance stats a little more due to all the bonuses, and Yelan really helps with the single target chambers- I cleared 12-3 Coppelia/Coppelius with this team very comfortably. I have Baizhu/Kokomi and builds to go with Nilou for them, but this team remains the most versatile and comfortable for me.
26:00 if you're looking for a burgeon team, try the curry or oven variations, these teams in terms of clear time is basically the same as kuki hyperbloom from my testing. to dumb it down, electro (curry) or cryo (oven) basically makes you generate consistent blooms for burgeon. The biggest downside of these teams is that the best variations makes you run a healer-less team so it's not as comfy for most casual players. Fischl, Thoma, Nahida w/ prot amber, Xingqiu (curry) Kaeya, Thoma, Nahida w/ prot amber, Xingqiu (oven) From my testing, these teams basically have the same clear time with Kuki, Yelan, Nahida, Xingqiu (if you use raiden instead of kuki here, i noticed it's around 15s faster in 12-1 but you also sacrificed your healer slot) So to tie this all down, what I'm basically saying is that we DON'T need a dedicated 5-star for burgeon, we just need a character, they could be a 4-star, that consolidates healing + off-field burgeon, that's also not tied to their burst so you can build as much EM as you can (similar to how kuki works)
I love using Collei Nahida as the dendro. Collei has so much dendro app in her kit that it can keep the dendro aura without it disappearing even for a split second though the downside is that she's a bit difficult to utilize compared to other choices
I've been using C1 Nilou since her debut and the analogy of her team comp adjustment is way closer to "art" than exact "science", the scaling can be subjected to each dendro and hydro application scaling a most Nilou users (including the most experienced ones) can often caught up in reaction applications without even reapplying Nilou pirouette Unfortunately her team can be really bad at breaking certain shields (not just Cryo but even geo too if the shield break requirement differs, pyro & electro shields would get instantly demolished though lol
Been maining Nilou bloom on one half of the abyss ever since her first rerun with Nahida. She's great, I pulled for Key at the time but she really doesn't need it. VERY f2p friendly, you basically just need Nahida.
That abrupt cut at 3:30 is actually a duplicate of the content at 20:20. Different video, but same exact audio commentary from Jello. Definitely seems like an editing error at the 3:30 spot.
In nearly every abyss, my C2 Nilou team is a core part of the roster, especially since I didn't have Kazuha up until AR60. She is basically my joker to skip floors. Definetely getting her skin and hopefully her weapon, too.
I will say for non abyss content, I prefer kokomi, xinqiu, nahida. Xinqiu swords will protect nahida. there is something satisfying about holding nahida skill. then she takes the camera pose and when you let go all the enemies dissapear.
I dont think you *need* Nahida to enjoy Nilou, at all. If you want to get her & don't have Nahida, I'd say go for it. She's so much fun to pair her with Alhaitham & Baizhu + the damage is INSANE
First time watching your content. I appreciated the suggestion of using Candace and Yaoyao in Bloom teams. I'm gonna take some time to put that team together now.
I pulled a nilou while trying to c4 my shiny new kaveh, and it turns out she's his best teammate??! I'm learning a lot about her and she's such a great accidental pull 😍
27:34 and a really well invested alhaitham furina nahida kuki will also outperform the other characters cuz in that team personal investment yields great results
I play hu tao burgeon constantly (like real, full EM burgeon, I have a couple showcases up, pspsps baizhu is there), I'm basically a dedicated burgeon batchester, and I totally agree there needs to be more characters released to revive it! Burgeon is one of the most satisfying, rewarding, beautiful reactions, less brain dead than hyperbloom but more powerful if you get it right. Right now, in my opinion, burgeon is missing two types of units: 1. Any unit besides thoma to be an off field burgeon trigger, using their elemental skill alone so you don't need to build ER. No bullshit circles or cringe cooldowns either. 2. A hydro unit with decent application who will also heal you without circle impact, kind of like a hydro Baizhu, to be played alongside another hydro unit like Xingqiu or Yelan. This will make burgeon a lot more fun and accessible to play imo. Don't have her, so idk if Sigewinne fills this or if her application is bad. You'd think given the state of hydro healers we'd have one who fits this but between Barbara's cooldowns, Kokomi's stationary jellyfish, and Sigewinne's overall strange kit I feel unsatisfied especially as we have many other strong hydro characters. Also side note but thanks for the vid... It's been fifty years but I kinda want to pull for her now, plus you explained a lot of concepts very concisely.
If youre on the fence, she's NUTS, requires little investment to be godly. Also fun, has her own niche using diverse units you might otherwise not use / doesnt need to use the typical hyper supports to do incredible
I got kokomi by chance back when she first came out and never played her that time , and after 7 months I understand her real value ,her healing and damage with clam is amazing and immortal.. now I got nilou by luck after 2 pull from my furina and she is good , no real investment and since I got the the dockhad assistant she's really good .. I got altheiham sig weapon and I'm really enjoying my free to play ass
I believe Nilou is future proof She will always synergize with anything that can apply hydro or dendro and if they ever make a 5* bloom dps or a powercreep version then you can put them on nilou and it'll be even stronger
Im a baizhu main, i dont use nahida and i have no issues with application That said my baihzu is c6 so i have a clear bias. Before i got him to c6 the application was a sightly lacking but his final con is outstanding I run nilou, yelan, baihzu, collie I cannot replace yelan because of her outstanding traversal in the open world, otherwise i would
You can try out Nilou Furina Benny XL, its the team core jello recommended if u want to play any kind of character on field. She helps alot in the Vapes and her Ult does good vape as well
instead of continuing to save I pulled Nilou because she's one of the cutest characters and the bloom archetype just doesn't exist in a viable way without her so finally I can build her and have that as an option for abyss. I don't regret my choice, but now I am definitely skipping everything until the pyro archon lol.
Im actually surprised, I got nilou at 20 pity yesterday and even with lvl 50 nilou, lvl 70 xingqiu, lvl 80 dendro MC, and lvl 60 yaoyao I am beating fricking lvl 90 enemies. Damn nilou is crack and yaoyao heals so much, definitely pull for her especially if you have nahida
Been saving since 4.4 after getting Xianyun and Nahida. After building some pity and winning 50/50s managing to get Furina then had about 240 wishes. Had unexpected luck and after ripping through ended up with c2 Nilou, Navia c0 a Monda dupe and managed to get c6 Kirara for Nilou bloom, (c3 Kaveh and like c10 Ning...) No regrets as i pretty much have almost everyone I want at this point, though i would've liked some leftover pulls for Yelan or Mualani. I could either just save for cons for future reruns, I never really go for weapons. Yae Miko, Kokomi, Baizhu and Shenhe would be nice to have but are more flex picks.
Now I am confused. Should I go for Navia or should I try to get Nilou's weapons. I have her but I don't use her but I am thinking of building her. Edit: guys I got Nilou's weapon around 15 pity and 0/2 fates I am so happy 😊
I play Kaveh Nilou team with Baizhu and Xingqiu. The key is not to use Nahida here because she steals Kaveh blooms. In this team hydro should be the aura and dendro - the trigger. Hope C6 Kaveh will not apply too much dendro. Nahida is super OK when Hydro is the trigger, basically on-field one to fully utilize EM from Nahida's Q. So there is three ways to play Nilou: dendro trigger, hydro trigger and uncontrollable triggers. The third one is the easiest, the first should be the most rewarding, the second is the most comfortable.
Nilou Bloom has NOT fallen off. i just cleared perfect stars Abyss Floor 12-1 with Nilou team for second half. Nilou’s Bountiful Blooms always proves to be powerful whenever and wherever it works. (First half of F12-1 i used HuTao team)
its been 1 year, 9 months ago since the first banner of nilou release! been playing the game since 2020 until now ( 2024) keep playing the game until i am dead
Okay so…Im depending on thos video to say whether I pull for Nilou or Emilie , I’m planning on pulling for Kinich and Rumors are that he depends on either Bloom or Burning (Since each will only have 1 character by 4.8 ; Nilou and Emilie) , And its Bloom not Hyperbloom or Burgeon
So what you say, I'm going for the third team 15:40 Nilou, nahida (which I'll hopefully get on this banner) , furina c2, baizhu c1 Should i go for full em nahida? My nilou is 300 em with 62k hp in double hydro team with baizhu also having 50k hp
I love using nilou nahida and Baizhu. I don’t think I’ll ever pull Ayato. I have c3 furina and c2 yelan. I’ve been using Yelan but is furina better if she isnt stuck to hydro dragon?
Nilou is dendro dps who won't work if enemies have high dendro res. But that is also the case with alheitham. So get nilou if you have nahida and kokomi shes one of the best dendro dps with lowest investment needed😛(low investment if we consider selfish investment she still needs premium team to be comparable with other dps. Having nahida is must for her imo)
Someone please give advice!!! I have been saving up for Yelan and currently have around 90 wishes (haven’t spent any money for these wishes). I also really want Nilou and to play the bloom team properly. But I REALLY want Yelan and have skipped her twice, and need her for my Hu Tao (fav character) team. I am tempted to pull for Nilou but I know I’ll probably regret it unless I have miraculous luck. What should I do??????
My favorite bloom team is Nilou, Neuvillette, Nahida and Baizhu. I call it Draconic Bloom. It's a strong team but I felt like I'm wasting my Neuvillette's potential by being in a bloom team since he has a signature weapon and I don't really have a strong second team. Also his damage is based on 3 different hydro reaction, it's hard to reach that if you only have bloom. So I'm torn between replacing him and creating a team centered around him or just create another Team. (I only have Hu Tao as my last limited 5 star)
I started a brand new account I put my controller down to eat and my dog pulled on the wepon banner and got the key in one 10 pull and I already have nahida, yao yao and water dood. I guess my dog built my first team for me.
Something I wonder that I still don't have a clear answer to: why does dendro sometimes not reapply/vanish without a reaction? I play a bloom team with Nilou and generally I set up Nilous skill, then link enemies, then start throwing hydro at them and every time I do, Tri-Karma triggers and reapplies dendro and I can just keep doing my rotation and get multiple reactions off like this. However, there are strange occurences that have me scratch my head where Tri-Karma/dendro only applies once or twice and then it stops, while enemies are still marked and the hydro won't create blooms anymore. Why does the dendro sometimes just stop applying very quickly? I know part of the answer is when enemies aren't linked, I have seen this issue consistently with single-target battles. However, the strange thing is that it also sometimes, say 1 in 5 times, happen with groups, where dendro just vanishes and doesn't reapply unless I switch back to nahida prematurely to reapply manually.
forgot to talk about childe! he works worse than ayato since no off field but it's still alright!

19:03 Sadly Mona doesn’t seem to be a hydro character according to your list. Here I have been using her on full EM to proc the blooms, without realizing that she can’t.
I was thinking the same
Edit: but then again, Childe is also not a hydro unit. I guess im gonna have to pull for Ayato after all
@@shenpai_ren I think I heard a rumor that Childe can used charged shots, his skill or his burst to apply hydro, but I’m not sure whether it’s true.
To be fair though, Childe applies so much hydro that he completely overpowers the Dendro, so your Dendro character will be the one activating the bloom (and it needs to be an off fielder other than Nahida, so it narrows your team possibilities and damage).
@@ulrikruby yea probably, but on the other hand, dendro units are more likely to be built EM, so more damage? Plus Childe does have a hefty cooldown on E if he stays on for too long. Ik full well its not viable, but if hydro MC gets a spot, so can childe imo
@@shenpai_ren Everything is better than hydro traveler, that’s why I made my comment in the first place.
I have personally tried using Childe, but I can’t find a good rotation, since he overpowers the Dendro, which means you have to switch but then you can’t switch back because his skill is on cooldown. That’s why I think catalyst characters are the best with Nilou, since you can always apply the element.
@@ulrikruby ill try out mona later today since abyss resetted, wanna see how it goes
I've been looking forward to your updated Nilou guide for a long time! I remember watching your first guide for Nilou and I love seeing how much you've grown as a creator since then.
As an Ayato and Baizhu enjoyer, I'm m super excited to get Nilou and try this team
Shes great in almost every abyss so If u have the characters for her GET HER
I have ayato and nahida, should i get her? Im tried of playing hyperbloom
@@butter5144 yesss
I'm quite surprised he didn't include Childe when covering the team section for Nilou. Regardless, great video as always.
Edit: nevermind, just checked pinned comment lol
i just came back to genshin after a half year break from the game and got nilou on 50/50, thanks for the build guide :3
your observation of Nilou teams being like art is so cool 🥰
Also i love that your fav team features Ayato! i always love using him
Your analysis got me in the mood to try out Nilou again. I love her, she's one of my favorite characters design-, gameplay- and story-wise, but every since Fontaine I was shifting my focus towards other teams that really good me excited to build and try out.
Now seeing her in action again, how well her team still performs, how flexible the slots are and just generally how fun it is to play, definitely convinced me to upgrade my Nilou/Bloom comp and run it through the Abysses again.
I'm very excited to try out my Nilou (got her yesterday).
Also I'm a big fan of Ayato, so this video gave me another team to try him.
23:11 that is my favorite quote ever "Nilou has to be used in Nilou teams" : ) makes me smile
I have a high invested Nilou team and run her with Nahida, Yelan and Yao Yao. Higher investment lets you balance stats a little more due to all the bonuses, and Yelan really helps with the single target chambers- I cleared 12-3 Coppelia/Coppelius with this team very comfortably. I have Baizhu/Kokomi and builds to go with Nilou for them, but this team remains the most versatile and comfortable for me.
Nilou for me is one of the best overworld teams. Nilou, Nahida,Komu, Colliei E and enemy are dead, no need for energy at all.
I enjoy watching your videos so much, I get so excited when you post and never miss a video!! Please keep doing you 💖💖 huge fan
My best team with her is Nahida, Yaoyao and Barbara. Nahida with Deepwood, both Yaoyao and Barbara with Paradise. Nilou with Tenacity and Vourukasha.
I'm so excited!! Finally, after so long, I'll get my second favorite character!!
26:00 if you're looking for a burgeon team, try the curry or oven variations, these teams in terms of clear time is basically the same as kuki hyperbloom from my testing. to dumb it down, electro (curry) or cryo (oven) basically makes you generate consistent blooms for burgeon.
The biggest downside of these teams is that the best variations makes you run a healer-less team so it's not as comfy for most casual players.
Fischl, Thoma, Nahida w/ prot amber, Xingqiu (curry)
Kaeya, Thoma, Nahida w/ prot amber, Xingqiu (oven)
From my testing, these teams basically have the same clear time with Kuki, Yelan, Nahida, Xingqiu (if you use raiden instead of kuki here, i noticed it's around 15s faster in 12-1 but you also sacrificed your healer slot)
So to tie this all down, what I'm basically saying is that we DON'T need a dedicated 5-star for burgeon, we just need a character, they could be a 4-star, that consolidates healing + off-field burgeon, that's also not tied to their burst so you can build as much EM as you can (similar to how kuki works)
I love using Collei Nahida as the dendro. Collei has so much dendro app in her kit that it can keep the dendro aura without it disappearing even for a split second though the downside is that she's a bit difficult to utilize compared to other choices
I've been using C1 Nilou since her debut and the analogy of her team comp adjustment is way closer to "art" than exact "science", the scaling can be subjected to each dendro and hydro application scaling a most Nilou users (including the most experienced ones) can often caught up in reaction applications without even reapplying Nilou pirouette
Unfortunately her team can be really bad at breaking certain shields (not just Cryo but even geo too if the shield break requirement differs, pyro & electro shields would get instantly demolished though lol
The Pyro Archon is coming, so I think I'll be saving my primos for the time being.
Been maining Nilou bloom on one half of the abyss ever since her first rerun with Nahida. She's great, I pulled for Key at the time but she really doesn't need it. VERY f2p friendly, you basically just need Nahida.
I think there's a substantial editing error at 3:30ish? Seems like an abrupt cut...
Something needs to be done. This video is scrambled. He says “even though I already said” at 8:03 about something he has not yet said.
That abrupt cut at 3:30 is actually a duplicate of the content at 20:20. Different video, but same exact audio commentary from Jello. Definitely seems like an editing error at the 3:30 spot.
i made a mistake! unfortunately can't edit once it's up
In nearly every abyss, my C2 Nilou team is a core part of the roster, especially since I didn't have Kazuha up until AR60. She is basically my joker to skip floors. Definetely getting her skin and
hopefully her weapon, too.
I will say for non abyss content, I prefer kokomi, xinqiu, nahida. Xinqiu swords will protect nahida. there is something satisfying about holding nahida skill. then she takes the camera pose and when you let go all the enemies dissapear.
she literally enables teams to clear floor 12 with level 1 talents during 3.x. shes actually so insane.
I dont think you *need* Nahida to enjoy Nilou, at all. If you want to get her & don't have Nahida, I'd say go for it. She's so much fun to pair her with Alhaitham & Baizhu + the damage is INSANE
First time watching your content. I appreciated the suggestion of using Candace and Yaoyao in Bloom teams. I'm gonna take some time to put that team together now.
I pulled a nilou while trying to c4 my shiny new kaveh, and it turns out she's his best teammate??! I'm learning a lot about her and she's such a great accidental pull 😍
Maining her since Day 1 and never regretted anything ❤ Still using and dominating with her in any situation may it ST or AoE. 🎉❤
27:34 and a really well invested alhaitham furina nahida kuki will also outperform the other characters cuz in that team personal investment yields great results
thank u for this! and cause of this I'm gonna pull for her and Emilie too
I play hu tao burgeon constantly (like real, full EM burgeon, I have a couple showcases up, pspsps baizhu is there), I'm basically a dedicated burgeon batchester, and I totally agree there needs to be more characters released to revive it! Burgeon is one of the most satisfying, rewarding, beautiful reactions, less brain dead than hyperbloom but more powerful if you get it right.
Right now, in my opinion, burgeon is missing two types of units:
1. Any unit besides thoma to be an off field burgeon trigger, using their elemental skill alone so you don't need to build ER. No bullshit circles or cringe cooldowns either.
2. A hydro unit with decent application who will also heal you without circle impact, kind of like a hydro Baizhu, to be played alongside another hydro unit like Xingqiu or Yelan. This will make burgeon a lot more fun and accessible to play imo. Don't have her, so idk if Sigewinne fills this or if her application is bad. You'd think given the state of hydro healers we'd have one who fits this but between Barbara's cooldowns, Kokomi's stationary jellyfish, and Sigewinne's overall strange kit I feel unsatisfied especially as we have many other strong hydro characters.
Also side note but thanks for the vid... It's been fifty years but I kinda want to pull for her now, plus you explained a lot of concepts very concisely.
If youre on the fence, she's NUTS, requires little investment to be godly. Also fun, has her own niche using diverse units you might otherwise not use / doesnt need to use the typical hyper supports to do incredible
OMG GUYS JELLO IS BLOOMING
I got kokomi by chance back when she first came out and never played her that time , and after 7 months I understand her real value ,her healing and damage with clam is amazing and immortal.. now I got nilou by luck after 2 pull from my furina and she is good , no real investment and since I got the the dockhad assistant she's really good .. I got altheiham sig weapon and I'm really enjoying my free to play ass
Really hoping to win my 50/50 tomorrow ! I have Nahida so Nilou would be a great addition to my party
0:20 can i use barbara? i dont have kokomi
I believe Nilou is future proof She will always synergize with anything that can apply hydro or dendro and if they ever make a 5* bloom dps or a powercreep version then you can put them on nilou and it'll be even stronger
I believe in the queen nilou
uhh...
I'm building Vaporize Nilou-
I'll be fine
I dont like a single thing about her gameplay but her standard outfits design is so peak i might just have to pull 🙏
Great deep insight. Subbed
Awesome video as always
Im a baizhu main, i dont use nahida and i have no issues with application
That said my baihzu is c6 so i have a clear bias. Before i got him to c6 the application was a sightly lacking but his final con is outstanding
I run nilou, yelan, baihzu, collie
I cannot replace yelan because of her outstanding traversal in the open world, otherwise i would
I just wished her combo string was longer, her being a blade dancer like eula and ayaka I wanted to see some elegant 6-7 hit strings lol
I wonder if the new hydro girl from Natlan will work
I did indeed crown Nilou's skill for the lols
Hey Jello, can you talk about main dps Nilou? I don't think you talked about it since most of the video looks like bloom gameplay.
Maybe for next rerun ~
The numbers are really bad and i still have lots of characters to invest in before I go ham on Nilou’s talent levels for vape
@@JelloImpact ah okay. Makes sense since your account's resources are stretched thin. Looking forward to it.
You can try out Nilou Furina Benny XL, its the team core jello recommended if u want to play any kind of character on field. She helps alot in the Vapes and her Ult does good vape as well
Sad... no Mona submarine. If you spam Mona's dash, it applies hydro!
@@tuvvy8116 does nilou has Hydro infusion on normal atks?
instead of continuing to save I pulled Nilou because she's one of the cutest characters and the bloom archetype just doesn't exist in a viable way without her so finally I can build her and have that as an option for abyss. I don't regret my choice, but now I am definitely skipping everything until the pyro archon lol.
Im actually surprised, I got nilou at 20 pity yesterday and even with lvl 50 nilou, lvl 70 xingqiu, lvl 80 dendro MC, and lvl 60 yaoyao I am beating fricking lvl 90 enemies. Damn nilou is crack and yaoyao heals so much, definitely pull for her especially if you have nahida
Been saving since 4.4 after getting Xianyun and Nahida.
After building some pity and winning 50/50s managing to get Furina then had about 240 wishes.
Had unexpected luck and after ripping through ended up with c2 Nilou, Navia c0 a Monda dupe and managed to get c6 Kirara for Nilou bloom, (c3 Kaveh and like c10 Ning...)
No regrets as i pretty much have almost everyone I want at this point, though i would've liked some leftover pulls for Yelan or Mualani. I could either just save for cons for future reruns, I never really go for weapons.
Yae Miko, Kokomi, Baizhu and Shenhe would be nice to have but are more flex picks.
I think Kaveh is rarest c6 among 4* so it is more realistic that you didn't test his c6.
Amber
Now I am confused. Should I go for Navia or should I try to get Nilou's weapons. I have her but I don't use her but I am thinking of building her.
Edit: guys I got Nilou's weapon around 15 pity and 0/2 fates I am so happy 😊
I play Kaveh Nilou team with Baizhu and Xingqiu. The key is not to use Nahida here because she steals Kaveh blooms. In this team hydro should be the aura and dendro - the trigger. Hope C6 Kaveh will not apply too much dendro. Nahida is super OK when Hydro is the trigger, basically on-field one to fully utilize EM from Nahida's Q. So there is three ways to play Nilou: dendro trigger, hydro trigger and uncontrollable triggers. The third one is the easiest, the first should be the most rewarding, the second is the most comfortable.
Thank you Mihoyo for the free 1600 primos that got me a free early Nilou!
Hope you other Nilou or Navia wanters get your choice!!
Nilou Bloom has NOT fallen off. i just cleared perfect stars Abyss Floor 12-1 with Nilou team for second half. Nilou’s Bountiful Blooms always proves to be powerful whenever and wherever it works. (First half of F12-1 i used HuTao team)
its been 1 year, 9 months ago since the first banner of nilou release! been playing the game since 2020 until now ( 2024) keep playing the game until i am dead
the most annoying thing about dendro teams is that you always need nahida if you want the "best" team comb
Ayato is the character I enjoy playing the most❤
Be interesting if Hoyo runs an abyss floor that favors Nilou. Just wish her 4-stars got me excited.
“God forbid, they introduce a Dendro Lecter to the abyss”
Don’t give them ideas! 😭
Most important thing is that she's pretty :)
9:26 The sword of what now?
🫡 Pulling for Nilou
[Praying for Kaveh with her
"every character" but misses Childe 😢
Okay so…Im depending on thos video to say whether I pull for Nilou or Emilie , I’m planning on pulling for Kinich and Rumors are that he depends on either Bloom or Burning (Since each will only have 1 character by 4.8 ; Nilou and Emilie) , And its Bloom not Hyperbloom or Burgeon
He uses burning I heard
@@Miko2030 Yeah but he either depends on Bloom or Burgeon for the other one , Im thinking of still going Burning but Im unsure
@@AhmedMohammed-pf3jk Either way Nilou doesnt work in burgeon teams.
Got Nilou at 15 pity trying to get more Kirara (I know she's free) lmao, never regretting it tho, I love Nilou!
So what you say, I'm going for the third team 15:40
Nilou, nahida (which I'll hopefully get on this banner) , furina c2, baizhu c1
Should i go for full em nahida? My nilou is 300 em with 62k hp in double hydro team with baizhu also having 50k hp
Hello is Nilou good in Hyperbloom? ( like in a team with clorinde furina, nilou and Nahida)
i watched this as soon as i have her
I love using nilou nahida and Baizhu. I don’t think I’ll ever pull Ayato. I have c3 furina and c2 yelan. I’ve been using Yelan but is furina better if she isnt stuck to hydro dragon?
Bro MAY be the best Genshin youtuber on earth
"Sword of Nebuchadnezzar"Jello what???? Its Narcissenkreuz hahahahaha 😅
Get in the bloom core, Nilou
the video bitrate goes hard 💀
Nilou is dendro dps who won't work if enemies have high dendro res. But that is also the case with alheitham.
So get nilou if you have nahida and kokomi shes one of the best dendro dps with lowest investment needed😛(low investment if we consider selfish investment she still needs premium team to be comparable with other dps. Having nahida is must for her imo)
Someone please give advice!!!
I have been saving up for Yelan and currently have around 90 wishes (haven’t spent any money for these wishes).
I also really want Nilou and to play the bloom team properly. But I REALLY want Yelan and have skipped her twice, and need her for my Hu Tao (fav character) team.
I am tempted to pull for Nilou but I know I’ll probably regret it unless I have miraculous luck.
What should I do??????
Sounds like you already know the answer. Yelan is the play.
My favorite bloom team is Nilou, Neuvillette, Nahida and Baizhu. I call it Draconic Bloom. It's a strong team but I felt like I'm wasting my Neuvillette's potential by being in a bloom team since he has a signature weapon and I don't really have a strong second team. Also his damage is based on 3 different hydro reaction, it's hard to reach that if you only have bloom. So I'm torn between replacing him and creating a team centered around him or just create another Team. (I only have Hu Tao as my last limited 5 star)
I started a brand new account I put my controller down to eat and my dog pulled on the wepon banner and got the key in one 10 pull and I already have nahida, yao yao and water dood. I guess my dog built my first team for me.
Something I wonder that I still don't have a clear answer to:
why does dendro sometimes not reapply/vanish without a reaction?
I play a bloom team with Nilou and generally I set up Nilous skill, then link enemies, then start throwing hydro at them and every time I do, Tri-Karma triggers and reapplies dendro and I can just keep doing my rotation and get multiple reactions off like this.
However, there are strange occurences that have me scratch my head where Tri-Karma/dendro only applies once or twice and then it stops, while enemies are still marked and the hydro won't create blooms anymore.
Why does the dendro sometimes just stop applying very quickly? I know part of the answer is when enemies aren't linked, I have seen this issue consistently with single-target battles. However, the strange thing is that it also sometimes, say 1 in 5 times, happen with groups, where dendro just vanishes and doesn't reapply unless I switch back to nahida prematurely to reapply manually.
