Overview

Nilou enables fast-rupturing Bountiful Cores in Hydro/Dendro-only teams. Her HP supports their damage, while sustained application and healing matter more than building her own critical hits.

Role

HP-scaling Bountiful Core enabler

Playstyle

Complete the dance for Golden Chalice Bounty, then let the core-producing team operate with dedicated sustain.

Why It Works

Bountiful Cores rupture quickly and cannot become Hyperbloom or Burgeon.

Watch For

Adding another element cancels the passive conditions; Nilou HP support does not automatically make her the owner of every core.

Playstyle

Combat Flow

Hydro and Dendro setup → Skill → three Skill steps → healer and reaction driver → refresh the dance buff.

Key Notes

  • Complete the third dance step to activate Golden Chalice.

  • Finish with Skill for an off-field Hydro aura.

  • Bountiful Cores cannot become Hyperbloom or Burgeon.

  • Nefer's Seeds of Deceit replace Bountiful Cores; use a Lunar support setup there.
