Release5.8

A multifunctional robot from the Clink-Clank Krumkake Craftshop, Ineffa was the first Moonsign character and remains one of the best off-field units in the game. One press of her Skill gives the team a strong shield and summons Birgitta, a robot that applies Electro every 2s and, near Lunar-Charged thunderclouds, adds direct Lunar-Charged hits. She deals huge damage from a few seconds of field time and fits almost any team with good Hydro application.

Stat targets

  • ATK 2,000 first (caps her Moonsign passive and strengthens her shield and EM buff), then CRIT
  • CRIT Rate 60–70%, CRIT DMG 150%+
  • Energy Recharge to Burst every other rotation: about 100% with another Electro unit, 115–135% alone
  • To Burst every rotation: 165–185% with another Electro unit, 230–250% alone

Talent priority

Elemental Skill
Elemental Burst
Normal Attack

Use an ATK% goblet: Electro DMG only affects a small part (under 10%) of her damage. Level 90 matters more than her talents because her Lunar-Charged damage comes from passives; then raise her Skill for the shield.

Teams

Recommended teams

Flins Lunar-Charged

Her best team: Ineffa brings damage, Energy, a shield and Electro Resonance to Flins while Columbina keeps Hydro up.

Arlecchino Overvape

Yelan's Hydro feeds both Arlecchino's Vaporizes and Ineffa's Lunar-Charged; the Hydro and Pyro slots are flexible.

Neuvillette Hyperbloom

Lauma's Lunar-Blooms still create Dendro Cores, which Ineffa's Electro turns into Hyperbloom on top of her Lunar-Charged damage and shield. An EM sands or goblet can be optimal on her here; leave time for a Hydro aura to form so Lunar-Charged stays up.

Guide

How to play

How she works

  • Moonsign Benediction: Assemblage Hub converts every Electro-Charged in the party into Lunar-Charged (+0.7% base DMG per 100 ATK, up to +14% at 2,000 ATK) and raises the party's Moonsign by one level.
  • Cleaning Mode: Carrier Frequency (Skill) deals AoE Electro DMG, creates the ATK-based Optical Flow Shield Barrier (250% effectiveness against Electro) and summons Birgitta for 20s. Birgitta moves to an enemy and Discharges every 2s for AoE Electro DMG.
  • Overclocking Circuit: whenever Birgitta Discharges near a Lunar-Charged thundercloud, she adds an extra hit worth 65% of Ineffa's ATK that counts as direct Lunar-Charged DMG. This is the core of her damage, so keep Lunar-Charged up at all times.
  • Supreme Instruction: Cyclonic Exterminator (Burst, 60 Energy) re-summons Birgitta at the target and triggers Panoramic Permutation Protocol: Ineffa and the active character gain EM equal to 6% of her ATK for 20s.

Rotation

  1. E (and Q when it is ready), then swap.
  2. Birgitta lasts longer than both her cooldowns, so Ineffa fits rotations of almost any length.

Never run her without a Hydro applier: without Lunar-Charged, most of her kit does nothing.

Strengths

  • Extremely strong off-field damage that can rival weaker main DPS
  • Very short field time
  • Covers the team's survival with a strong, frequent shield
  • Flexible: slots into many teams as long as Hydro is applied

Weaknesses

  • Her kit falls apart if Lunar-Charged cannot be triggered
  • Her share of the damage shrinks next to a heavily invested main DPS
  • Solo Electro teams need a lot of Energy Recharge to Burst every rotation

Notable dupes · Constellation

Solid upgrade

Her shield gives the party up to +50% Lunar-Charged DMG based on her ATK.

C2
Solid upgrade

Her Burst marks an enemy for a big Lunar-Charged hit and shields the party, making it worth casting every time.

C4
Optional

5 Energy per Lunar-Charged (once every 4s): only useful if it lets her Burst more often.

C6
Solid upgrade

Extra Lunar-Charged hits whenever a thundercloud strikes: a massive jump, for whales only.
