Ningguang Quick TL;DR Team Comp Guide

Ningguang (sugar = tiny crystals, so Ning = sugar mama)

Element: Geo

Weapon: Catalyst

Pros:

Cons:

PSA #1: She’s probably one of the most straightforward DPS in the game. At C1, she becomes even stronger, and C4 increases her overall damage output (she’s still viable at C0, don’t worry). Her team comp is all about maximizing damage, and the most popular comp tends to be fairly F2P friendly as well

Who to take (alternatives explained below!):

• Provides a free 15% ATK DMG boost with geo resonance
• Noelle E keeps team healthy and protected
• Can use Noelle Q to knockback enemies really quickly to give DPS some space
• CAN REPLACE WITH Zhongli/Geo Traveler/Albedo OR VENTI FOR MORE AGGRESSIVE TEAM COMP (REFER TO PSA #2)

• Provides a free 25% ATK boost with pyro resonance and serves great as sub DPS
• Xiang E provides a fairly consistent pyro proc
• Xiang Q’s range is actually perfect for Ningguang’s normal/charged attack range
• CAN REPLACE WITH AMBER/KLEE FOR SUB DPS OR MONA FOR MORE AGGRESSIVE TEAM COMP (REFER TO PSA #2)

• Provides a free 25% ATK boost with pyro resonance
• Bennett’s Q basically makes him into a breathing steroid
• Can provide some insanely strong burst healing (great in abyss)
• CAN REPLACE WITH ANY PYRO IF YOU DON’T HAVE BENNY (but he’s pretty crucial) OR XINGQIU

PSA #2: The above comp is the “F2P friendly” variation. There is another popular comp that includes Venti – Mona – Qiqi/Chong/Benny which focuses more leading with AoE CC into a massive shatter burst combo with Venti Q – Mona Q + Qiqi, and then finishing off with Ning. It hits really friggin hard

Great flex slot alternatives:

• Zhongli – Strongest shield in the game + a relatively decent geo particle when fighting near his E. Run as burst DPS to maximize CC
• Albedo – Build for his E to further enhance total DPS when Ningguang spams normal attacks
• Venti/Sucrose – Both are great at grouping enemies, allowing Ningguang to maximize her C1 passive (also great energy batteries)
• Xingqiu – Has no real synergy, but overall improves total DPS output with his Q (pairs well with Ningguang as she’s normal attack heavy)
• If taking Hydro user, try to pair with Cryo as well – Geo DPS like Ningguang can proc shatter, which is Phys DMG but still a niche add-on of damage + Frozen CC

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK QUESTIONS BELOW! I’ll try my best to respond as I know some players may not have ANY of the characters mentioned

Hope this helped. Bye.
