Ningguang Talents
Her attack mechanics combined with her short cooldowns and low energy cost enable her to consistently deal with a high amount of DPS.
 | Sparkling Scatter |
|---|---|
| Normal Attack | |
| Normal Attack Shoots gems that deal Geo DMG. Upon hit, this grants Ningguang 1 Star Jade. Charge Attack Consumes a certain amount of stamina to fire off a giant gem that deals Geo DMG. If Ningguang has any Star Jades, unleashing a Charged Attack will cause the Star Jades to be fired at the enemy as well, dealing additional DMG. Plunge Attack Gathering the might of Geo, Ningguang plunges towards the ground from mid-air, damaging all opponents in her path. Deals AoE Geo DMG upon impact with the ground. | |
| Attributes | Level 1 | Level 10 |
|---|---|---|
| Normal Attack DMG | 28% | 50.4% |
| Charged Attack DMG | 174.08% | 313.34% |
| DMG per Star Jade | 49.6% | 89.28% |
| Charged Attack Stamina Cost | 50 | 50 |
| Plunge DMG | 56.83% | 112.34% |
| Low/High Plunge DMG | 113.63% / 141.93% | 224.62% / 280.57% |
Unlike most characters, Ningguang has mechanics on her normal and charged attacks. Normal attacks produce star jades and it caps at 3 stacks. When using a charged attack, Ningguang unleashes all her star jade stacks which deal with additional damage. To simplify, your attack pattern should always be Normal > Normal > Normal > Charged.
Ningguang is able to increase her damage output even further by holding down the walk forward button while using her normal attacks. Faster normal attacks means faster charge attacks and more Star Jades.
 | Jade Screen |
|---|---|
| Elemental Skill | |
| Ningguang creates a Jade Screen out of gold, obsidian and her great opulence, dealing AoE Geo DMG. Jade Screen
| |
| Attributes | Level 1 | Level 15 |
|---|---|---|
| Skill DMG | 230.4% | 547.2% |
| Inherited HP | 50.1% | 101.1% |
| Cooldown | 12 Seconds | 12 Seconds |
Ningguang’s skill is Jade Screen which deals with significant Geo AOE damage on the cast and spawns a big barrier that blocks projectiles with the exception of piercing attacks such as Fire Abyss Mage attacks.
The AOE is big and used as an initiator in most cases. The damage and energy recharge is pretty high so make sure it actually lands on your enemies. You can control where it spawns by holding a specific direction on the directional pad before unleashing it.
 | Starshatter |
|---|---|
| Elemental Burst | |
| Gathering a great number of gems, Ningguang scatters them all at once, sending homing projectiles at her opponents that deal massive Geo DMG. If Starshatter is cast when a Jade Screen is nearby, the Jade Screen will fire additional gem projectiles at the same time. | |
| Attributes | Level 1 | Level 15 |
|---|---|---|
| DMG Per Gem | 86.96% | 206.53% |
| Cooldown | 12 Seconds | 12 Seconds |
| Energy Cost | 40 | 40 |
When Ningguang uses her elemental burst Starshatter while her skill is active, the Jade Screen will be destroyed but in return, it will launch additional star jades and heat seek nearby enemies. There’s no need to stack star jades first before using Ningguang’s burst. The only thing you need to make sure of is that her Jade Screen should be active before you cast Starshatter.
If your Ningguang has a level 6 constellation, make sure that you burn your remaining Star Jades first via charged attack before casting Starshatter since it will instantly refill to 7 stacks. You then immediately do another charged attack after using burst.

Ningguang my 1st 4 star ⭐️
I used her forever but doesnt work with my current team strategy now. Still a fantastic character though, I tend to throw her back into the team for the wolf and dvalin.
Best artifact set I’ve found for her is 4pc bolide. That added power when you’re shielded is insane. Pop a Bennett ult down and you’ll be 20k+ every time.
Nigguang is a walking nuke. Can’t change my mind.
Is she worth leveling up?
Ningguang is by far the strongest 4 Stars Characters yet, because of her insanely high burst damage, if you solo one single enemy, she can literally destroy them without having a chance to fight back because of her stun.
is c0 ningguang worth?
Yeah, she’s my main DPS, I have other 5 stars but I chose her instead, the downside is she’s a bit expensive to build. Because of Keqing’s banner, I can finally have her constellation to C3. Her C1, C2 and C6 was insane but if you can just get C1, that would be enough because it’ll turned all her attack in AOE damage.
People say that she’s really good DPS but the choice of upgrading her is yours.
