Secret Beneath the Sands
The best Nefer build in Genshin Impact (Version 7.0) is Reliquary of Truth with Night of the Sky's Unveiling. Updated August 22, 2026
Also works
2PC EM Combinations — Placeholder option while farming Night of the Sky’s Unveiling.
As a Lunar-Reaction DPS with Elemental Mastery scaling multipliers, Elemental Mastery and CRIT are the only stats Nefer cares about. Nefer also does not need to build any Energy Recharge.

Nefer’s levels are unimportant, as no part of her Lunar-Bloom damage scales with it. Nefer can be left at level 80/90 since most of her damage ignores enemy DEF and Levelling does not provide her scaling stat.
Dendro carry with Hydro from Columbina for Bloom, and two Dendro supports for resonance and constant Dendro on field.
Electro carry with two Geo units for resonance and Columbina’s Hydro for Electro-Charged.
Genshin Impact 5★ Dendro Catalyst Main DPS
Reliquary of Truth tops the weapon ranking for Nefer, at 126.47% relative damage at R1 in the DPS - Solo column, ahead of Dawning Frost, CRIT Stat Stick (Surf’s Up, Tome of the Eternal Flow) and The Widsith. That order is prydwen.gg's, measured in play and rephrased here; every row of it sits under Weapons below.
Run Night of the Sky's Unveiling on Nefer, with Gilded Dreams and 2PC EM Combinations behind it. Main stats are Elemental Mastery sands, Elemental Mastery goblet, CRIT Rate / CRIT DMG > Elemental Mastery circlet. Roll substats in the order CRIT Rate = CRIT DMG > EM.
Talent priority is Skill >> Burst. The Elemental Burst costs 60 energy, which is what an Energy Recharge target has to clear.
The strongest team is Nefer, Columbina, Lauma and Nahida, built around Nefer — Dendro · Bloom.

Normal Attack Performs up to 4 kicks that deal Dendro DMG with the ferocity and grace of a striking serpent.
Charged Attack Nefer enters the Slither state, consuming Stamina to move rapidly forward for up to 2.5s. When the skill button is released, the duration ends, or Stamina runs out, Nefer will exit the Slither state and consume a certain amount of additional Stamina to deal Dendro DMG to opponents. When in the Shadow Dance state, additional Stamina consumption is decreased. Additionally, unleashing the Elemental Skill Senet Strategy: Dance of a Thousand Nights or sprinting while Nefer is in the Slither state will not cause her to exit the state.
Plunging Attack Calling upon the might of Dendro, Nefer plunges towards the ground from mid-air, damaging all opponents in her path and dealing AoE Dendro DMG upon impact with the ground.

A dance that dissolved dynasties, as chilling as a winter's night on the great sea of sand, yet lingering with the tenderness of moonlit gauze. Nefer charges forward, dealing AoE Dendro DMG and entering the Shadow Dance state. While in the Shadow Dance state, if you have at least 1 Verdant Dew, Nefer's Charged Attacks will be replaced with the special Charged Attack Phantasm Performance, which will not consume Stamina. When in the Shadow Dance state, Nefer's resistance to interruption is increased.
Two initial charges.

Grant "revelation" to the mysteries of the false through Thoth's true sight, dealing AoE Dendro DMG to opponents ahead. When unleashed, Nefer will consume all Veils of Falsehood to increase the DMG dealt by the current Elemental Burst.
The blessings of the Ibis King proclaimed by the singers of the burning sands are, in truth, more akin to dire curses.

Nefer will be granted the corresponding buff effects based on the party's Moonsign.
Moonsign: Ascendant Gleam: When she unleashes her Elemental Skill Senet Strategy: Dance of a Thousand Nights, any Dendro Cores on the field will be converted to Seeds of Deceit, and any Lunar-Bloom reactions triggered by nearby characters in the following 15s that would create Dendro Cores or Bountiful Cores will instead create Seeds of Deceit. Seeds of Deceit cannot trigger Hyperbloom or Burgeon reactions and will not burst. When Nefer unleashes a Charged Attack or Phantasm Performance, she can absorb Seeds of Deceit within a certain range, gaining 1 stack of Veil of Falsehood for every seed absorbed. When this effect reaches 3 stacks, or when the third stack's duration is refreshed, Nefer's Elemental Mastery will be increased by 100 for 8s.

When Nefer is in the Shadow Dance state, for 5s after a party member triggers a Lunar-Bloom reaction, Nefer's Slither state will provide additional Verdant Dew. Every 100 points of Nefer's Elemental Mastery beyond 500 will strengthen this additional provision effect by 10%. The maximum increase that can be achieved this way is 50%.

When a party member triggers a Bloom reaction, it will be converted into the Lunar-Bloom reaction, with every point of Elemental Mastery that Nefer has increasing Lunar-Bloom's Base DMG by 0.0175%, up to a maximum of 14%.
Additionally, when Nefer is in the party, the party's Moonsign will increase by 1 level.

Gains 25% more rewards when dispatched on a Nod-Krai Expedition for 20 hours.
