New Content
 Columbina | Columbina has excellent synergy with Noelle, enabling the team to take advantage of the Lunar-Crystallize reaction. She further contributes by bringing significant personal damage, off-field AoE Hydro application and buffs to Lunar-Crystallize damage. |
 Linnea | Linnea also lets Noelle utilize the Lunar-Crystallize reaction. Not only does she both enable and buff it, she also brings off-field Geo application, good personal damage and Geo RES Shred. |
 Ineffa | A 5-star Lunar-Charged enabler. Brings a lot of personal damage and some buffing capabilities with her Burst and her passive. |
 Illuga | Illuga is a 4-star character from Nod-Krai. He brings a teamwide Geo CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG buff, an EM buff and an Additive Base DMG Bonus buff to Geo damage for on-field characters. |
 Aino | A free 4-star Hydro character from Nod-Krai. Provides off-field Hydro application (only notable in Ascendant Gleam), EM and Lunar Reaction buffs with C1 and C6 respectively. |
 Night of the Sky’s Unveiling | 4pc Night of the Sky’s Unveiling is often the Best-in-Slot artifact set in teams consisting of at least 2 Moonsign characters and a Lunar Reaction enabler. |
 Xilonen | Xilonen is a premier Geo buffer for Noelle in Double Geo teams, and perhaps her most versatile one. She provides a lot of Geo particles, buffs from 4pc Scroll, and a teamwide RES Shred. |
 Kachina | Kachina is a free character from Natlan. She provides good buffing with 4pc Scroll, decent personal damage and generates a good amount of Geo particles. |
 Durin | Durin is a strong Pyro Hexerei teammate for Noelle. He provides good personal damage and Geo RES Shred. His Hexerei: Secret Rite effect is activated preferably by pairing with Albedo or Nicole. |
 Nicole | Nicole is a good pairing with Durin for Noelle; however, her performance without Durin is lackluster. |
 Flame-Forged Insight | A potent option in Lunar-Crystallize teams if Noelle has high ER requirements. If the Energy passive is utilized well, it can be comparable to R5 Whiteblind. |
 Gest of the Mighty Wolf | A strong weapon for Noelle. Its performance is highly enhanced when the party has the Hexerei: Secret Rite effect. |

Character Overview
Pros
- Guaranteed on the Novice Wish, with guaranteed Constellations from Paimon’s Bargains shop
- Yields good results even with simple gameplay, but still has room for significant optimization if desired
- Very comfortable to play due to built-in healing and a strong shield
- Can be played in both single- and multi-target content
Cons
- High Energy requirements due to no personal particle generation
- Investment into Noelle yields worse results than investing into her teammates
- Somewhat limited competitive team options, often requiring more than one 5-star teammate
- Conventional gameplay would make her struggle in Stygian Onslaught, generally forcing her to adopt awkward rotations
Playstyles
On-Field DPS
Noelle excels as an on-field unit. Her Geo-converted attacks have wide AoE, allowing her to perform well in both single- and multi-target scenarios. Her Skill also provides a strong shield, all of which results in a very comfortable and easy to play unit with noticeable personal damage.
Talents
Level and Talent Priority
Normal Attack > Burst > Lvl 90 >> Skill*
Prioritize leveling her Normal Attacks, as they bring the highest damage increase. Burst should be levelled right after, providing a better DEF to ATK conversion. Lvl 90 increases her DEF significantly, which provides a larger Lunar DMG Bonus in Ascendant Gleam, and increases her Moondrift damage.
*Her Skill can be leveled to increase her healing and shielding effectiveness.
Talent Overview
Normal Attack | Favonius Bladework – Maid
Talent Description
Normal Attack
Performs up to 4 consecutive strikes.
Charged Attack
Drains Stamina over time to perform continuous spinning attacks against all nearby opponents.
At the end of the sequence, performs a more powerful slash.
Plunging Attack
Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.
Noelle’s Normal Attack Talent is the bread and butter of her playstyle. For her Normals, she performs three sweeping AoE attacks before finishing with a final slam in front of her. Her Charged Attacks and Plunging Attacks are also valuable in certain scenarios, such as Xianyun Plunge teams.
Elemental Skill | Breastplate
Talent Description
Summons protective stone armor, dealing Geo DMG to surrounding opponents and creating a shield. The shield’s DMG Absorption scales based on Noelle’s DEF.
The shield has the following properties:
- When Noelle’s Normal and Charged Attacks hit a target, they have a certain chance to regenerate HP for all characters.
- Possesses 150% DMG Absorption efficiency against all Elemental and Physical DMG.
The amount of HP healed when regeneration is triggered scales based on Noelle’s DEF.
Noelle’s Elemental Skill creates a Geo shield, but it doesn’t generate any particles. Noelle can maintain high shield uptime with the help of her A4 Passive. While the shield is active, Noelle’s Normal Attacks have a chance to heal the team.
If you have C4 Noelle, stay close to enemies to ensure that they get hit by the shield expiration damage.
Elemental Burst | Sweeping Time
Talent Description
Gathering the strength of stone around her weapon, Noelle strikes the opponents surrounding her within a large AoE, dealing Geo DMG.
Afterwards, Noelle gains the following effects:
- Larger attack AoE.
- Converts attack DMG to Geo DMG that cannot be overridden by any other elemental infusion.
- Increased ATK that scales based on her DEF.
Noelle’s Elemental Burst converts her Physical attacks into Geo attacks, while greatly increasing her ATK based on her DEF stat. Her Geo-converted Normal and Charged Attacks have a far longer range than her Physical attacks.
Ascension 1 Passive | Devotion
Talent Description
When Noelle is in the party but not on the field, this ability triggers automatically when your active character’s HP falls below 30%:
- Creates a shield for your active character that lasts for 20s and absorbs DMG equal to 400% of Noelle’s DEF.
- The shield has a 150% DMG Absorption effectiveness against all Elemental and Physical DMG.
- This effect can only occur once every 60s.
Noelle’s A1 Passive is mostly useless since her Normal Attacks’ healing during her shield duration prevents teammates from falling below 30% Max HP. Nonetheless, it can be a lifesaver if you somehow wind up in that situation in Spiral Abyss or Stygian Onslaught.
Ascension 4 Passive | Nice and Clean
Talent Description
Every 4 Normal or Charged Attack hits will decrease the CD of Breastplate by 1s.
Hitting multiple opponents with a single attack is only counted as 1 hit.
Noelle’s A4 Passive allows her Normal or Charged Attacks to reduce her Skill cooldown by 1s for every 4th hit. This is valuable in maintaining shield and Geo Resonance uptime in non-Lunar teams without another shielder. The Skill cooldown reduction can also enable shorter rotations.
Constellations
Constellation 1 | I Got Your Back
Constellation Description
While Sweeping Time and Breastplate are both in effect, the chance of Breastplate’s healing effects activating is increased to 100%.
Noelle’s C1 guarantees that her Normal or Charged Attacks heal the team while her Skill and Burst are both active. This removes the RNG aspect of her healing at C0.
Constellation 2 | Combat Maid
Constellation Description
Decreases the Stamina Consumption of Noelle’s Charged Attacks by 20% and increases her Charged Attack DMG by 15%.
Noelle’s C2 gives her a Charged Attack DMG Bonus. This Constellation makes Charged Attacks a viable option in some scenarios.
Constellation 3 | Invulnerable Maid
Constellation Description
Increases the Level of Breastplate by 3.
Maximum upgrade level is 15.
This Constellation increases the healing and shield durability of her Skill.
Constellation 4 | To Be Cleaned
Constellation Description
When Breastplate’s duration expires or it is destroyed by DMG, it will deal 400% of Noelle’s ATK of Geo DMG to surrounding opponents.
Noelle’s C4 enables her to deal a strong burst of Geo damage in a small AoE after her shield expires.
Constellation 5 | Favonius Sweeper Master
Constellation Description
Increases the Level of Sweeping Time by 3.
Maximum upgrade level is 15.
This Constellation provides a significant boost to her damage. When her Burst is Talent Level 10 or higher (or she has C6), Noelle benefits more from building DEF than ATK. This lets you run a DEF-focused build without having to crown Noelle’s Elemental Burst Talent.
Constellation 6 | Must Be Spotless
Constellation Description
Sweeping Time increases Noelle’s ATK by an additional 50% of her DEF.
Additionally, every opponent defeated during the skill’s duration adds 1s to the duration, up to 10s.
Noelle’s C6 is a substantial boost to her damage. At C6, Noelle should use a DEF-focused build since it offers better scaling, but ATK stats are still beneficial (from substats, weapon passives, or team buffs).
This Constellation also extends the duration of Noelle’s Burst by 1s for each enemy defeated, up to 10 times. If Noelle is off-field when her Burst duration expires, she’s also granted the full 10s duration extension (further information can be found in the “Mechanics” section).
Combos
- N = Normal Attack
- C = Charged Attack
- A = Aimed Shot
- P = Plunging Attack
- E = Elemental Skill
- tE = Tap Skill
- hE = Hold Skill
- Q = Elemental Burst
- D = dash (cancel)
- J = jump (cancel)
- W = walk (cancel)
- > = switch character
- ( ) = “these actions are optional; please refer to the notes below”
- [ ] = “repeat these actions the specified number of times”
Noelle has a fairly straightforward combo. Her Burst state does not end upon swapping out, so Noelle can swap to a teammate to let them refresh an ability or funnel Geo particles to her.
The number of Normal Attack strings or Charged Attacks allowed in a rotation varies depending on the team and rotation length.
Noelle can also perform QE instead of EQ to catch particles with more consistency.
While swapping out during Noelle’s combo is often optimal, it’s not necessary/possible in every team, in which case it’s fine to have 1 continuous Noelle field time.
| N3D | Noelle’s bread and butter combo. Works well in all Noelle teams, often being barely worse than specialized combos for specific setups. Performs even better with good dash cancels. Use Case: Default |
| N4D | Highest damage output in single target. This combo has the highest theoretical damage output out of all Noelle combos. However, it often lines up poorly with rotation times, resulting in a lower damage over time compared to other options. Use Case: Situational |
| C (Charged Attack/spin) | Best AoE/fastest Geo application The preferred combo in some scenarios. Noelle’s Charged Attacks cover a lot of area around her, trivializing multi-target scenarios. Charged Attacks also heal faster than Normal Attacks to maximize Furina’s Fanfare generation and provide more Geo application in Lunar-Crystallize teams; these benefits come at the cost of Noelle’s personal damage. It is recommended to alternate Normal Attacks and Charged attacks for better Stamina management. Use Case: Lunar-Crystallize, Multi-Target Scenario |
Mechanics
Burst extension
Using the aforementioned C6 Burst extension allows for flexible rotations, which cut Noelle’s field time early to restart the rotation, and essentially allow her to cast her Burst once every 2 rotations.
However, the majority of Noelle’s teams don’t see an improvement from using this mechanic; shorter rotations mean higher Energy requirements for her teammates, which often result in worse team performance. Specific alternate rotations won’t be covered in this Quick Guide, stay tuned for an Extended Guide update!
Geo application
Noelle’s attacks have a unique property that allows them to apply Geo to the enemy with every hit. While this doesn’t usually matter in most of her teams, it allows for great synergy with Lunar-Crystallize, resulting in high Moondrift Harmony trigger rate. This feature is applicable to both Normal and Charged Attacks.
Artifacts
ER Requirements
Calcs for ER requirements can be found here (last updated for Version 6.7).
| No Geo Teammate/Albedo/Chiori | 200%+ |
| Xilonen/Geo MC | 115-135% |
| Linnea/Illuga | 165-185% |
| Illuga/Gorou/Kachina/Linnea +1 Geo | 120–130% |
| Albedo/Chiori + 1 Geo | 125-155% |
| Albedo + Chiori | ~160% |
- 22-25s rotations with safe particle generation.
- Each teammate Favonius proc reduces Noelle’s ER requirements by roughly 10-15% (Favonius weapons have already been assumed whenever applicable).
- Solo Geo comps very often require Favonius Greatsword on Noelle.
Use the Energy Recharge Calculator to determine exact requirements for your team and rotation. For more details on how Favonius weapons will affect your team, please use Ac1d’s Favonius Mastersheet.
Artifact Stats
Since Noelle has a scaling DEF to ATK conversion with her Burst, her stat priorities differ depending on her Constellation and Burst Talent Level. While DEF% Sands result in a better damage output for Noelle than ATK% Sands at C6 or past Talent lvl 10 Burst, Noelle can keep using ATK% Sands while farming for proper DEF% pieces.
C0–C5 and Burst Talent Level 9
 Sands |  Goblet |  Circlet |
| ATK% | Geo DMG Bonus | CRIT Rate or CRIT DMG |
Stat Priority: ER% (until requirement) > CRIT > ATK% > DEF%
C6 or Burst Talent Level 10+
Sands | Goblet | Circlet |
| DEF% | Geo DMG Bonus / DEF% | CRIT Rate or CRIT DMG / DEF% |
Stat Priority: ER% (until requirement) > CRIT > DEF% > ATK%
DEF% Goblet can be optimal in teams with a lot of DMG% buffs. If using Redhorn Stonethresher, DEF% Circlets can become optimal in rare circumstances. We recommend using Genshin Optimizer to find the best artifact combination.
EM is not a completely wasted stat in Lunar-Crystallize teams, but it has a very low priority. Prioritize regular stats.
Artifact Sets
Recommended Sets
 4pc Husk of Opulent Dreams | 4pc Husk of Opulent Dreams is the recommended set to farm for dedicated Noelle players. It’s only slightly worse than the sets listed below in their best teams, but it works in every Noelle team. Noelle can prestack this artifact set’s 4pc set bonus by staying off-field for 12s at the start of combat. If Noelle equips Serpent Spine, prioritize the weapon’s passive stacks by staying on-field instead. |
4pc Night of the Sky’s Unveiling | 4pc Night of the Sky’s Unveiling is the best set in teams consisting of 2 Nod-Krai characters, including a Lunar Reaction enabler, slightly beating 4pc Husk. If the team also includes Furina, this set is pretty much on par with 4pc Marechausse Hunter. Not worth using in teams with only one Moonsign character. |
 4pc Marechaussee Hunter | 4pc Marechaussee Hunter is only viable in Furina teams. The sheer amount of stats it provides makes it one of the best options. |
Other Sets
 4pc Gladiator’s Finale | 4pc Gladiator’s Finale is a significantly worse option than the sets above. However, it’s good as a temporary set while farming for one of the better sets. |
 4pc Retracing Bolide | 4pc Retracing Bolide performs just slightly worse than 4pc Gladiator’s Finale. It is not worth farming. |
 2pc Mixed Sets | 2pc Bonuses: Husk of Opulent Dreams , Archaic Petra, Marechaussee Hunter, ATK% These are transitional set options while you farm for 4pc Husk of Opulent Dreams, Night of the Sky’s Unveiling, or Marechaussee Hunter. |
 4pc Archaic Petra | 4pc Archaic Petra is only used when Noelle is an on-field driver and healer, not a damage dealer. This set sacrifices Noelle’s personal damage for teamwide buffing capability. Outside of Lunar-Crystallize teams, Noelle must pick up the Elemental Shard from Crystallize to grant the corresponding Elemental DMG% buff. |
Weapons
 Redhorn Stonethresher | Redhorn Stonethresher is Noelle’s Best-in-Slot weapon. Due to the high CRIT value and additional DEF scaling provided by this weapon, in rare circumstances DEF% Circlets can be comparable to CRIT Circlets. |
 Serpent Spine | Serpent Spine is Noelle’s best 4-star weapon. It performs well at R1 and benefits from refinements. |
Gest of the Mighty Wolf | Gest of the Mighty Wolf is a strong option for Noelle. In Hexerei teams, this weapons performance is greatly enhanced. |
 Verdict | Verdict is a good option for Noelle; however, it is better used on Navia if you only have one copy. Verdict is not worth pulling just for Noelle. |
 Beacon of the Reed Sea | Beacon of the Reed Sea performs on par with Verdict. You need to hit the enemy with Noelle’s Skill cast to trigger the passive. |
 Whiteblind | Whiteblind is Noelle’s best free option. It’s not optimal to perform a Normal Attack before casting Burst for the passive stack. |
 Skyward Pride | Skyward Pride is an okay option if Noelle has high ER requirements. If Noelle’s team has high ER requirements instead, Favonius Greatsword is recommended. |
Flame-Forged Insight | A potent option in Lunar-Crystallize teams if Noelle has high ER requirements. |
 Favonius Greatsword | Favonius Greatsword may be necessary in teams without good particle generation, solo Geo teams or in Stygian Onslaught. |
    Wolf’s Gravestone, The Unforged, A Thousand Blazing Suns, A Teaspoon of Transcendance | These 5-star Claymores all perform worse than R5 Whiteblind. Only worth considering if very strapped for Billets and/or Dream Solvents. |

Teambuilding
Noelle’s flexible field team allows her to work with a variety of characters. Units who can refresh their abilities or have multiple charges can freely swap in without Noelle losing her Geo Conversion. The exclusion of some units does not mean they’re not viable with Noelle.
Notable Teammates
Geo
At least one Geo teammate is recommended in Noelle’s most recommended team archetypes to lower Noelle’s ER requirements and enable Geo Resonance.
 ★ Linnea | Linnea is a premier off-field Geo damage dealer in Lunar-Crystallize teams. She offers very high personal damage, decent particle generation and Geo Shred. However, she’s only good in Lunar-Crystallize teams. |
 ★ Xilonen | A premier option for Noelle in Double Geo teams. Xilonen’s short Skill cooldown provides excellent particle generation while also providing RES Shred. She can use 4pc Scroll for a potent DMG Bonus buff to Noelle and her teammates. At C2, her teambuilding restriction is removed, allowing her to slot into pretty much any Noelle team. |
 ★ Illuga | Illuga is an exceptional teammate for Noelle. His CRIT buff, EM buff, and Additive Base DMG Bonus buff are very good; he can also funnel his Skill particles to Noelle. He also raises the team’s Moonsign level, being a great option for Lunar-Crystallize teams, especially at C6. |
 Gorou | Gorou is a good teammate for Noelle in Triple Geo teams. His DEF buff and additional buff at C6 are very welcome. He also is a great battery, since his Skill cooldown allows him to funnel his particles twice to Noelle per rotation. He provides more Energy than Illuga, but his buffs are worse in comparison. |
 Albedo | Albedo is an excellent off-field Geo damage dealer who also lowers Noelle’s ER requirements. He can enable Hexerei: Secret Rite resonance with other units, providing a teamwide DMG Bonus. His construct used to be easily destroyed, but in Hexerei teams he can create another, unbreakable flower. |
 Chiori | Chiori is a good off-field Geo teammate for Noelle due to her good damage output and Geo particle generation. At C0, she appreciates having another construct like Albedo’s flower (note that Moondrifts count as such) to grant her a second doll, greatly increasing her damage output. At C1, this teambuilding restriction is removed. |
 Kachina | A free 4-star character from Natlan. Offers decent personal damage, good particle generation, and buffs via 4pc Scroll. |
  Yun Jin/Geo MC | While they are Geo characters who can provide Energy and buffs for Noelle, they fall behind options mentioned above. Use only if no other options are available. |
Hydro
 ★ Columbina | Columbina is a premier Hydro teammate for Lunar-Crystallize teams. Her short Skill cooldown and good duration allow for flexible setups, while also providing good personal damage and off-field Hydro application. |
 ★ Furina | Furina is one of Noelle’s best Hydro teammates. She provides decent personal damage and a strong DMG% buff, which Noelle can keep at high levels due to her potent healing. She also enables 4pc Marechaussee Hunter. |
 Aino | A free 4-star alternative to Columbina. She offers Hydro application and can provide EM and Lunar DMG Bonus buff with Constellations. |
 Yelan | Yelan is a decent off-field DPS unit who provides personal damage, a ramping DMG% buff, and Hydro application. |
 Xingqiu | Xingqiu is a 4-star alternative to Yelan. He provides better Hydro application at the cost of slightly lower personal damage and lack of buffs. |
Electro
 ★ Ineffa | Ineffa is a great off-field damage dealer in Lunar teams. She enables Lunar-Charged reaction, deals high off-field damage, and can provide an EM buff through her A4 Passive. |
 Fischl | Fischl is a decent off-field, single-target DPS unit who slightly reduces the team’s ER requirements. Fischl can freely swap in to refresh Oz thanks to Noelle’s flexibility. She can also pair with Albedo or Durin to enable their respective Hexerei: Secret Rite effects, but she doesn’t provide any buffs herself without the party triggering Overloaded or Electro/Lunar-Charged. |
 Yae Miko | Yae is a decent off-field damage dealer for Noelle. After her kit buffs, her totems last through Noelle’s longest rotations. |
Pyro
 ★ Durin | Durin is a strong Pyro Hexerei teammate for Noelle. He provides good personal damage and Geo RES Shred, but his Hexerei: Secret Rite effect is notable with Nicole, Albedo or Fischl. He can also opt to use his Dark Mode in teams that don’t allow you to trigger Pyro Crystallize due to excess Hydro application, providing better personal damage at the cost of buffs. |
Nicole | Nicole is a good Pyro Hexerei teammate for Noelle. She’s not very notable by herself, but paired with Durin, they form a strong, synergistic duo. Despite Nicole’s buff being Flat ATK, it still increases Noelle’s damage, and its very long duration can cover almost the entirety of Noelle’s rotations. |
Other
 Xianyun | Xianyun allows Noelle to become a Plunging Attack DPS unit with her Geo Conversion. Plunge Noelle teams are rather underwhelming, and require significant investment to be on par with other archetypes, such as Lunar-Crystallize. Noelle’s Burst also doesn’t give her bigger AoE on her plunges. |
Lunar-Crystallize
One of the best Noelle archetypes. Noelle’s Geo-converted attacks apply Geo with every hit, allowing good Moondrift damage, while also contributing significant Talent damage.
Example Teams
This is not a comprehensive list of teams. The inclusion or exclusion of any given team does not necessarily reflect its power level.
A premier Lunar-Crystallize team for Noelle. Linnea and Columbina form a fantastic duo, while Noelle uses her Geo-converted attacks to make good use of the Lunar-Crystallize reaction. The last slot is fairly flexible; Furina allows for more Moondrift damage, Illuga provides significant teamwide buffs, while Gorou is slightly worse for raw damage output, but provides the most Energy for Noelle.
Sample Rotation (Illuga)
Linnea E > Columbina E(Q)¹ > Illuga QE > Noelle EQ 5[N3D] N2
Sample Rotation (Furina)
Linnea E > Columbina E(Q)¹ > Furina EDQ > Noelle EQ 5[N3D]
Sample Rotation (Gorou)
Linnea E > Columbina E(Q)¹ > Gorou QE > Noelle EQ 2[N3D] > Gorou E > Noelle 3[N3D] N1
¹When available
A very solid Noelle team. The Ineffa variant allows for both Lunar-Charged and Lunar-Crystallize reactions in one team, while Furina variant contributes good Hydro damage and focuses on Furina’s and Noelle’s Talent damage, with an added bonus of Lunar-Crystallize.
Sample Rotation (Furina)
Furina EDQ > Columbina E(Q)¹ > Xilonen EN2 > Noelle EQ 2[N3D] N2 > Xilonen EN2 > Noelle 2[N3D] N3
Sample Rotation (Ineffa)
Columbina E(Q)² > Ineffa E(Q)² > Xilonen EN2> Noelle EQ 2[N3D] N2 > Xilonen EN2 > Noelle 2[N3D] N3
¹When available
²Alternate their Bursts. Use Columbina’s Burst after her Skill on the first rotation, don’t cast Ineffa’s Burst first rotation.
A free-to-play friendly alternative to a regular Lunar-Crystallize team.
Sample Rotation
Columbina E(Q)¹ > Gorou EQ > Illuga QE > Noelle EQ 2[N3D] N2 > Gorou E > Noelle 2[N3D] N3
¹When available
Another Lunar-Crystallize variant if Columbina is not available.
Sample Rotation
Linnea E > Aino EQ > Gorou QE > Noelle EQ 2[N3D] N2 > Gorou E > Noelle 2[N3D] N2
Hexerei Teams
Noelle’s Hexerei Teams bring decent team building versatility, as well as a lot of buffs to her personal damage. However, for the team to perform well, Noelle needs two characters to fully enable the resonance effect.
Example Teams
This is not a comprehensive list of teams. The inclusion or exclusion of any given team does not necessarily reflect its power level.
Team with a very good damage contribution from Noelle. Nicole’s long lasting buff covers almost the whole rotation, Durin provides good personal damage and a lot of Geo Shred, while Xilonen helps the team with Energy requirements and provides even more shred.
Sample Rotation (Xilonen)
Nicole (Q)¹E > Durin EEQ > Xilonen EN2 > Noelle EQ 2[N3D] N2 > Xilonen EN2 > Noelle N3D N2
¹When available
Team with multiple damage dealers. Durin provides Geo Shred and Albedo provides good off-field damage. Chiori is a potent choice for the last slot, dealing considerable damage with her 2 dolls due to Albedo’s construct. Gorou significantly lowers the whole team’s Energy requirements.
Sample Rotation (Chiori)
Albedo E > Durin EE > Chiori EE (swap to Durin) > Durin Q > Noelle EQ N2D 2[N3D] > Durin EE > Noelle 3[N3D] N2
Sample Rotation (Gorou)
Gorou EQ > Albedo E > Durin EEQ > Noelle EQ 3[N3D] N2 > Durin EE > Gorou E > Noelle 2[N3D] N2
Hexerei team with Fischl. Durin and Fischl provide respectable damage, while also buffing Noelle.
Xilonen provides Energy, 4pc Scroll and Elemental Shred.
Sample Rotation
Durin EEQ > Fischl E > Xilonen EN2 > Noelle EQ N2D N3D N4 > Fischl Q > Xilonen EN2 > Noelle 2[N3D] N3
Other Teams
Noelle’s teambuilding versatility allows her to change teammates based on the content she’s up against.
Example Teams
A single-target focused team. Noelle acts as a driver; healing up Furina’s HP drain while also capitalizing on Yelan’s coordinated attacks.
Sample Rotation (Xilonen)
Furina EDQ > Yelan Q N1 E N1 > Xilonen EN2 > Noelle EQ 2[N3D] N2 > Xilonen EN2 > Yelan N1 E > Noelle N3
A Plunge Noelle team. Despite Xilonen not being able to shred resistances in this team, she provides 4pc Scroll and a lot of Energy for Noelle.
Sample Rotation
Furina EDQ > Xianyun EP Q > Xilonen EN2 > Noelle Q 8[JP] > Xilonen EN2 > Noelle E¹ N3
¹When available
Limited Roster Alternatives
These teams are meant for newer players whose limited roster prevents them from using the teams above; as such, the teams below result in lower damage output.
A free-to-play friendly team with two free units. This team is aimed at newer/returning players who don’t have many units available, as its performance is pretty lackluster. Kachina provides 4pc Scroll and Energy, Gorou provides a lot of Energy for Noelle, and Fischl provides personal damage and a bit of Energy.
Sample Rotation
Kachina E > Fischl E/Q > Gorou QE > > Noelle EQ 2[N3D] > Kachina Q > Gorou E > Noelle N3D N2
