The Best Characters For Nightsoul Damage In Genshin Impact

Summary

• Characters in Natlan need Nightsoul damage to defeat tough enemies with shields like the Lord Of Everlasting Primal Fire.
• Nightsoul characters like Mavuika, Mualani, and Kinich are excellent choices to consistently deal tremendous damage.
• Supporting characters like Xilonen, Ororon, Citlali, and Chasca can also contribute with off-field Nightsoul damage in team setups.

The Nightsoul Damage mechanics were introduced with the Natlan region in Genshin Impact. Many characters residing in this region make great use of it to quickly defeat tough opponents, and The Lord Of Everlasting Primal Fire is especially a difficult enemy to face without any Nightsoul characters.

Many enemies in Natlan cannot be defeated without it, as you need Nightsoul damage to deplete their shields. To succeed, you’ll need characters that deal tremendous damage consistently. A few characters like Mavuika, Mualani, and Kinich are excellent choices, but there are many alternatives you can use if you don’t own them.

Xilonen

Nightsoul Geo Support

Xilonen is mainly a supporting character, but that doesn’t make her entirely useless. After all, she can deal continuous Nightsoul damage with her normal attacks. She can hit an opponent multiple times with her skates.

She can also increase the damage dealt by other characters as she decreases an opponent’s resistance to attacks.

If you are running a mono Geo team, Xilonen will then use her Elemental Burst to deal off-field Nightsoul damage. This lets you switch between other characters that don’t necessarily do Nightsoul attacks, but are still powerhouses. However, she is easily replaceable by stronger Nightsoul characters, so she shouldn’t be your first choice.

Ororon

Electro Sub DPS

Ororon is an excellent sub-dps who deals constant off-field Nightsoul damage. His Elemental Skill makes a Spirit Orb which Ororon hurls at an enemy to make Nightsoul attacks.

His Elemental Burst lets him summon Supersonic Oculus which takes up the enemies’ aggro and also deals constant Electro-alinged Nightsoul damage. If other characters around Ororon enter Nightsoul Blessing, he gains the Hypersense Effect, which lets him damage four nearby enemies with Nightsoul.

5

Citlali

Nightsoul Cryo Support

Citlali is a support character, but she can consistently do Nightsoul attacks while also applying Cryo. This lets her play a vital role in any team that relies on Elemental Reactions.

Citlali’s Elemental Skill allows her to call her friend Itzpapa who deals constant off-field Cryo damage, and you are also shielded from damage depending on Citlali’s Elemental Mastery. Her Elemental Burst generates a Spiritvessel Skull near an opponent to deal further off-field Nightsoul damage.

4

Mualani

Hydro Main DPS

Mualani is an easy-to-use Nightsoul character who also excels at Vaporize reactions if you have a Pyro DPS on the field. After using her Elemental Skill, Mavuika rides her shark surfboard. While she is standing on it, you can do normal attacks continuously to deal Hydro-aligned Nightsoul damage.

If you hit enemies affected by her “Marked As Prey,” she will make even stronger attacks with her skill. Her Elemental Burst is explosive as she sends out shark missiles that follow and hit nearby opponents. You can pair her well in Cryo teams to constantly attack enemies while they are frozen.

3

Chasca

Anemo And Swirl Reaction DPS

Chasca can deal strong Nightsoul damage to multiple enemies and let you control huge crowds of them quickly. Her damage mechanics may be slightly harder to understand. During her Nightsoul Blessing state, with her Elemental Skill, she can target six opponents at a time and hit them with her Shadowhunt Shells.

Chasca is also great to use in Swirl teams. Depending on your team members, her bullets may either convert into Hydro, Cryo, Electro, or Pyro. This lets her trigger Swirl reactions when the enemies are hit by an Anemo bullet mixing in with other elements. Her Elemental Burst deals AoE Anemo damage, and also generates Soulseeker Shells.

The Soulseeker Shells make six more random bullets and hit nearby enemies with Nightsoul damage of varying element types.

2

Kinich

Dendro Main DPS

Kinich is a strong Dendro DPS who can give you great Nightsoul damage output. He hooks onto the enemies and attacks them continuously while he goes in a loop around the target. This makes the enemies more vulnerable to his attacks and makes Kinich evasive. If you tend to find it harder to evade, you might find it much easier to defeat strong foes using him.

His Elemental Skill also lets him use the Scalespiker Cannon, which deals significant Nightsoul damage in a single blow. If you trigger his Elemental Burst, Kinich’s trusty partner Ajaw will deal off-field Dendro damage at regular intervals. Kinich works well with Burn and Burgeon reactions.

1

Mavuika

Pyro Main DPS

Mavuika is a powerhouse when it comes to dealing Nightsoul damage. Using her Elemental Skill, Mavuika rides her iconic bike called the Flamestrider to deal Nightsoul damage. If you keep holding the skill button, she will circle around the enemy, attacking continuously. If you increase her Elemental Mastery, her attacks will react with other elements to one-shot your enemies.

When you are attacking with the Flamestrider, all of her attacks will deal Nightsoul damage.

You can also use her skill off-field if you do not summon the Flamestrider. The Ring of Searing Radiance will form around Mavuika, which will damage the enemies at intervals. However, you should also focus on her Elemental Burst, as it charges quickly and deals massive Nightsoul-aligned Pyro damage.
