What Makes Ineffa Special (And Why You Should Care)
Here"s the thing about Ineffa – she"s not just another Electro character. This Nod-Krai native completely rewrites how Electro-Charged works, and honestly? It"s about time.
Her “Lunar-Charged” reaction is basically Electro-Charged on steroids. Instead of that sad, non-critting damage we"re used to, Lunar-Charged scales with your entire team"s stats and can actually crit. At level 90, she rocks 12,613 HP, 330 ATK, 828 DEF, plus a solid 19.2% CRIT Rate ascension bonus (24.2% total).
The real kicker? Her “Moonsign Benediction” passive bumps Lunar-Charged base damage by 0.7% for every 100 ATK – capping at a juicy 14% when you hit 2000 ATK. She"s designed as a Sub-DPS who works her magic from off-field, which means more flexibility in your rotations.
Artifact Sets That Actually Matter
Gilded Dreams (4-piece) is your go-to here. The EM and ATK bonuses are exactly what Ineffa craves, boosting both her personal damage and reaction potential. I"ve tested this extensively, and it consistently outperforms other options.
Thundering Fury (4-piece) deserves consideration if you"re running reaction-heavy comps. That 40% Electro-Charged damage boost extends to Lunar-Charged too – pretty neat design choice from HoYoverse.
Tenacity of the Millelith (4-piece) works for support builds. The 20% ATK and 30% Shield Strength buffs help the whole team, though you"ll sacrifice some personal damage.
Main Stats That Matter:
Sands: ATK% (prioritize hitting that 2000 ATK threshold) or EM
Goblet: ATK% or EM – and here"s crucial info: never use Electro DMG% because it doesn"t boost Lunar-Charged
Circlet: CRIT Rate/DMG following the classic 1:2 ratio
Substat Hunting: CRIT Rate/DMG > ATK% > EM > ER. You"re aiming for 60-70% CRIT Rate, 150%+ CRIT DMG, that magic 2000 ATK number, 300+ EM, and 110-150% ER depending on your team setup.
Weapons Worth Your Primogems
Fractured Halo is her signature for good reason. 608 base ATK, 66.2% CRIT DMG, plus a passive that gives 24% ATK for 20 seconds after using skills or bursts. The cherry on top? 40% Lunar-Charged damage bonus for your whole team when shields activate.
Don"t have it? No worries.
Ballad of the Fjords from the Battle Pass punches way above its weight with CRIT Rate and EM bonuses. Kitain Cross Spear is your best craftable option – that EM main stat and energy refund make it perfect for F2P players. Deathmatch offers reliable CRIT Rate if you need it.
For pure F2P builds, stick with Kitain Cross Spear. Favonius Lance works too if your team"s energy-hungry, though you"ll lose some personal damage.
Talent Investment Strategy (Don"t Waste Materials)
Elemental Skill first, always. This is her bread and butter with 100% uptime potential (20-second duration, 16-second cooldown).
Elemental Burst second for that AoE burst damage and Birgitta duration refresh. Normal Attack can stay at level 1 – she"s not meant for on-field auto-attacking.
Crown priority goes Skill > Burst if you"re going all-in. The material investment is hefty: 420,000 Mora, 168 Glowing Hornshroom, full Vajrada Amethyst gem sets, enemy drops, and 46 Secret Source Airflow Accumulators.
Constellation Reality Check
C1 (Rectifying Processor) is the sweet spot – it boosts party Lunar-Charged damage based on her ATK up to 50%. Most bang for your buck if you"re spending.
C2 adds a 300% ATK scaling damage instance plus party shields.
C4 gives 5 Energy when Lunar-Charged triggers (4-second cooldown), which dramatically cuts ER requirements.
Here"s my honest take: C0 works perfectly fine. Her core mechanics are all there. Save your primos for better artifacts and weapons before chasing constellations.
Team Building That Works
Meta comp: Ineffa + Neuvillette + Furina + Xilonen. This maximizes Lunar-Charged through insane Hydro application and damage amp. Alternative: Ineffa + Clorinde + Yelan + Kazuha for fast-paced combat.
Anemo Driver teams like Ineffa + Ifa + Furina + Ororon let you use on-field Anemo for continuous Swirl while proccing Lunar-Charged. VV set bonus amplifies everything nicely.
Key partners: Furina"s Hydro application is unmatched. Xilonen brings healing, resistance shred, and damage amp. Kazuha handles crowd control and elemental damage bonuses.
Combat Flow (Keep It Simple)
Standard rotation: Set up supports → Ineffa Skill (deploy Birgitta) → Apply Hydro → on-field driver maintains reactions. Burst every 20 seconds to refresh Birgitta and activate EM sharing.
Energy needs: 110-130% ER with another Electro, 130-150% solo. Favonius weapons on supports help reduce Ineffa"s ER requirements. Birgitta moves around, so learn enemy patterns for optimal positioning.
Spiral Abyss Performance (The Numbers)
Version 5.8 Abyss loves Ineffa. Floor 12 first half gives 75% Electro-Charged/Lunar-Charged damage bonus. The Battle-Hardened Pipilpan Idol boss practically begs for these reactions.
Current data shows 15-30% clear time improvements with proper teams. Optimal setup: Ineffa + Neuvillette + Furina + Xilonen for maximum damage with dual defensive options. F2P alternative: Ineffa + Sucrose + Fischl + Xingqiu still performs competitively.
Don"t Make These Mistakes
Biggest error: Using Electro DMG Goblet – it literally doesn"t help Lunar-Charged.
Second mistake: Ignoring the 2000 ATK threshold for her passive.
Third: Running solo Electro without enough ER.
Pro tips: Balance personal damage with reaction contribution through smart stat distribution. Master reaction timing for maximum Lunar-Charged uptime. For C1+ players, optimize ATK values before triggering that damage bonus.
Ineffa"s unique mechanics make her future-proof – new artifacts and character synergies will only make her stronger. Genshin Impact Top Up through BitTopup keeps you stocked with resources for optimal team building.
