Summary
While thinking about Navia inGenshin Impact, it’s quite normal to assume that she won’t have a lot of weapon choices since she’s a Geo Claymore unit. Most Geo units are known for scaling on DEF, while Claymores are also one of the most neglected weapon categories since there aren’t a lot of limited characters using one.
Thankfully, Navia’s weapon choices are quite the contrary since she has a long list of usable weapons depending on the availability of your account and the play style you’re going for. You’ll likely find at least one good weapon that you may use on her.
9Sacrificial Greatsword
With theSacrificial Greatswordequipped on Navia, you may gain up to 30.6 percent Energy Recharge as you level up the weapon. However, this stat isn’t necessarily useful on her since you can easily get her Ultimate back due to multiple charges on her Skill, especially if you’re using her with another Geo character.
The reason for this weapon being on this list is its passive, which has a chance of granting you another use of your Skill, bringing the total up to three. This cooldown reset can be triggered every 16 seconds, making her Normal Attacks infused with Geo almost the entire time you have her on the field.
8Blackcliff Slasher
Navia already gets a bunch of Crit DMG from her ascension as you bring her to level 90, but it increases even further with the 55.1 percent gained from this weapon. The best part about it is that every player can get their hands onBlackcliff Slasher, but you’ll have to save some of thecurrency that you get from wishing.
Furthermore, the weapon gives her up to 24 percent extra ATK every time she defeats an enemy at Refinement Five, which stacks up to three times. This ATK buff can increase Navia’s overall DMG quite a lot when you’re up against a group of smaller enemies.
7Ultimate Overlord’s Mega Magic Sword
This is a limited weapon in Genshin Impact that could only be acquired if you took part in the Roses and Muskets event during the Version 4.3 update. Its design matches Navia’s color scheme quite well, which might already be enough reason for some people to use this weapon on her.
However, it’s a great weapon for Navia even when you consider its combat value since you may easily get up to 48 percent ATK boost as long as you’ve explored Fontaine properly. This ATK boost directly buffs Navia’s DMG, and it gets even better with all the DMG boosts from Artifacts and other party members.
6Wolf’s Gravestone
While Navia might have a bunch of weapon choices, a lot of these weapons aren’t four stars since we’re already entering the five-star territory.Wolf’s Gravestoneis a Standard five-star weapon that can be acquired both from the Standard banner and when it’s featured on the Weapon Banner.
It’s one of the best Claymores you can have in Genshin Impact, and the 49.6 percent ATK provided by upgrading it already makes the weapon good on Navia. However, you can get further ATK increase from its passive as you defeat more enemies as well.
5The Unforged
Another weapon with the ATK Percent as the secondary stat, you can only getThe Unforgedif you pull on the Weapon Banner when it’s featured. It gives the user 20 percent Shield Strength by default, which makes it great for Navia since she can get a ton ofCrystallize shields.
Moreover, when you hit an opponent, you get another four percent ATK boost that stacks up to five times. The catch is that this ATK boost gets doubled if you’re protected by a shield, which is likely going to be the case for Navia most of the time.
4Redhorn Stonethresher
Redhorn Stonethreshermight seem like a not-so-good pick for Navia since it gives you 28 percent DEF from the passive, which is quite useless for her. However, it’s important to realize how phenomenal the 88.2 percent Crit DMG from its secondary stat can be, especially when combined with Navia’s ascension stat.
It also gives you a Normal and Charged Attack DMG boost based on your DEF, which might not be a lot for Navia, but it does increase her regular damage output and makes her a decent on-field DPS instead of just being a damage-per-screenshot.
3Serpent Spine
What’s a lowly four-star weapon doing among all these giant five-star weapons you might wonder, butSerpent Spineis actually one of the best weapons you can use on Navia. Unfortunately, you can only get this weapon if you buy the premium tier of the battle pass, which requires you to spend real money.
The Crit Rate from this weapon’s secondary stat combines with the Crit DMG from Navia’s ascension to give her a bunch of free Crit. Moreover, as long as you’re protected by a shield, Navia will never lose the stacks from its passive even if you take a hit.
2Beacon of the Reed Sea
The character associated with theBeacon of the Reed Seamight not be as good in the game, but the weapon itself is a phenomenal pick for Navia. It gives her a whopping 33.1 percent Crit Rate, so you’ll only need to get another 40-50 percent more from her Artifacts and you’ll be in a good place.
It also increases your ATK by 20 percent when you take DMG or use your Skill, and both these ATK buffs are counted separately. Finally, you can use Navia without a shielder with this weapon since it massively increases her HP if you don’t have a shield on.
1Verdict
Finally, what better weapon for the first slot on this Navia’s weapon list other than her signature. Not only is this weapon the best for her in combat, but it also suits her overall design the most. This is besides the fact thatVerdictis arguably the coolest-looking Claymore in the entire game.
It gives her a little less Crit Rate compared to Beacon, but it makes up for the lack of Crit by increasing her Elemental Skill DMG based on the Shards you obtain from the Crystallize reaction. This is perfect to use Navia as a Burst DPS and see massive damage.
