Redhorn Build Notes: 1/2 Targets: N1>N2>N3>N4>dash/hop This isn't always feasible due to cast time (as well as knockback issues). Multiple Targets: N1>N2>N3>dash/hop With Redhorn, using Charged Attack can become more effective. While spinning, opening and closing either the map or adventurer's handbook once will allow you to bypass the 5 second restriction.
Note: This build is focused on maximizing Redhorn's damage output while using Charged Attack.

Noelle DPS This build is only recommended for [C6] Noelle. Noelle DPS is best optimized at [C6] where she converts an additional 50% DEF into ATK. Her ability to sustain her team with shields, heals and AoE damage makes for a reliable DPS when your team is built around her.
Weapon Choices:

  • Serpent Spine: When using Husk of Opulent Dreams, Serpent Spine stacks are prioritized over Husk of Opulent Dreams stacks due to their conflicting nature in gaining stacks (On-Field vs Off-Field).
  • Skyward Pride: Useful if you are unable to get ER from your substats. Does really well while its passive is active, but falls off in sustained fights. Comfort option that can lose to a high refined Whiteblind with stacks.

Artifact Sets:
  • Marechaussee Hunter (4): Optimal for personal damage by a few percentage points when paired with Furina.
  • Husk of Opulent Dreams (4): Noelle snapshots her DEF on burst cast. To get the full 4 stacks' DEF% boost during your first burst, you need to wait 12 seconds off field before swapping in. In Abyss, time spent before the chamber starts still generates stacks.

DRIVER Generally optimal when running multiple off-field DPS like Yelan, Xingqiu or Fischl. Instead of focusing on her own damage (but not neglecting it), Noelle takes a supportive role with Archaic Petra to buff her team, while still taking advantage of her AoE and strong defensive utility.
Artifact Main Stats Priority: When driving a team with Furina, Noelle generally lacks DEF% from weapon, set bonus and team buffs. In order to counteract Furina's HP drain, especially with high HP units like Yelan, multiple DEF% Main Stats may be required.
