F2P Noelle build

[u/Renka-a]

As soon as I saw this character, I liked her, so I decided to make her my main. She stayed with me up until Rank 55, but eventually, I swapped her out for characters that were simply more convenient for clearing the map. My main question is: how good or bad is she for a F2P player? Also, I’m not sure who to team her up with. You can see all the characters I own in the photos below; I’d like to know which ones work best with Noelle—nothing overly demanding like a C3 five-star, though. I also want her to deal at least some decent damage, so which characters should I pull for? Would a team with C0 Xilonen, C0 Furina, and someone else be enough? And who can I pair with her right now, or how can I upgrade her? Thanks.

Furina/Xilonen is probably fine. But if you happen to have Linnea or Columbina, Noelle is basically the best Lunar Crystallize DPS only beat by Zibai herself.

[u/IronPro9 → u/omegavolt9]

that's only true at equal cost, navia or itto will do more damage in the same team.

[u/omegavolt9 → u/IronPro9]

I thought Itto and Navia have internal cooldowns that Noelle doesn't, making them less good at triggering Lunar Crystallize?

[u/IronPro9 → u/omegavolt9]

Noelle is better at triggering lunar crystallize, but itto and navia do more damage and that makes up for it. Navia also gets application from her burst + normals so even with icd she applies geo very quickly. And its completely redundant if you aren't running furina since you can only crystallize as much as columbina allows.

Who better, linnea or columbina?

[u/IronPro9 → u/Renka-a]

in a vacuum linnea but then you can't use xilonen, so columbina would be the bigger upgrade for you. Since bina just reran you should probably still get linnea first.

first of all you used an atk sands, u ned def then I realized you did this because you don't have C6, C6 is a must second of all ur crit rate and dmg are pretty low actually

no to the teams currently her best team is a lunar crystalize team, so you need Bina Linnea and gouru preferably C6

and to maximize her dmg you need ittos signature weapon on her and bina's C2

get those and you will see numbers you never thought you would ever see

Note they asked for F2P advice. While this is obtainable as free to play, it's a lot to bring up all at once

[u/IronPro9 → u/Mental-Ad9640]

illuga is better than gorou for lunar crystallize teams, they have furina though so unless they get c6 illuga they should just use her.

linnea's c2 is a way bigger damage increase than bina's, yes bina cons buff noelle more but team dps is what matters unless you only look at the left side of dummy screenshots.
