Nefer is a 5-star Dendro Catalyst in Genshin Impact who shines as a main DPS centered around the unique Lunar-Bloom reaction, a powered-up version of Bloom introduced with Luna II. Her damage scales heavily with Elemental Mastery and Moonsign levels, so choosing the right teammates to supply Dendro, Hydro, and Moonsign support is what turns her from “good” to “top-tier.”

This guide explains how Nefer’s teams work, then breaks down premium, budget, and flex lineups so you can build Nefer around the roster you actually have.

How Nefer’s Teams Work

Nefer converts standard Bloom reactions into Lunar-Bloom, which deal higher, crittable damage that scales with her Elemental Mastery and Moonsign effects. Her passive Moonsign Benediction: Dusklit Eaves boosts party Moonsign and increases Lunar-Bloom base damage with every point of EM she has, up to a cap, so she wants to be the unit triggering most Blooms.

Because Lunar-Bloom still relies on Dendro + Hydro cores, Nefer’s best teams always include:

• Nefer as on-field Dendro DPS and Lunar-Bloom trigger.
• At least one Hydro applier to generate plenty of Blooms.
• A Dendro support to maintain Dendro aura and buff EM or shred resistances.
• A fourth slot for survivability, buffs, or extra Hydro/Dendro/EM support, often from Nod-Krai to enable Ascendant Gleam Moonsign bonuses.

Core Nefer Synergies: Who She Wants

Certain characters show up in nearly every high-end Nefer team because they directly fuel Lunar-Bloom or Moonsign.

Key picks include:

• Lauma (Dendro) – Considered Nefer’s best partner, amplifies Lunar-Bloom, shreds Dendro/Hydro RES, and is designed to interact with Nefer’s system.
• Nahida (Dendro) – Provides unmatched Dendro application, big EM buffs, and can hold Deepwood Memories for teamwide Dendro RES shred.
• Aino (Hydro, Nod-Krai) – A 4-star Hydro who applies Hydro consistently and synergizes well with Nefer’s Lunar-Bloom and Nod-Krai Moonsign setups.
• Nilou (Hydro) – Supercharges Bloom/Lunar-Bloom damage in Dendro–Hydro-only teams, making Nefer teams extremely lethal if you can handle the self-damage.
• Furina / Yelan / Neuvillette / Kokomi / Xingqiu – Strong Hydro choices offering buffs, off-field damage, or healing, depending on what your team needs.
• Yaoyao / Baizhu / Diona – Provide healing, shielding, and in some cases extra EM or Dendro application to keep Nefer safe while she stands on-field.

Most top-tier lineups stack at least one of Lauma or Nahida plus one strong Hydro, then fill the last slot with sustain or more buffs.

Best Premium Nefer Teams

If you have a deep roster of 5-stars, these premium teams let Nefer reach her full potential as a Lunar-Bloom carry.

1. Nefer + Lauma + Nahida + Aino (T0 Lunar-Bloom Core)

This composition is frequently cited as Nefer’s strongest all-round team.

• Nefer – On-field Dendro DPS and main Lunar-Bloom trigger, built with high EM and Crit.
• Lauma – Dedicated Lunar-Bloom support; amplifies Lunar-Bloom, shreds Dendro/Hydro RES, and is tuned to Nefer’s kit.
• Nahida – Sub-DPS and Dendro buffer; marks enemies, applies constant Dendro, boosts EM, and commonly holds 4-piece Deepwood Memories.
• Aino – Hydro applier; ensures a steady stream of Blooms and can run EM-focused sets like Instructor or EM weapons to further boost reactions.

This team offers massive Lunar-Bloom damage, excellent Dendro uptime, and high EM support, making it ideal for both AoE content and tough bosses.

2. Nefer + Lauma + Nahida + Nilou (Max Bloom Power)

Here, Nilou transforms standard Blooms into stronger versions, which Nefer then upgrades further into Lunar-Bloom.

• Nefer – Main DPS and Lunar-Bloom trigger.
• Lauma – Lunar-Bloom amplifier and RES shredder.
• Nahida – Extra Dendro application and EM buffs.
• Nilou – Hydro driver who boosts Bloom/Lunar-Bloom damage with her unique passive.

With triple Dendro and one Hydro, this setup is extremely explosive but can be demanding on survivability and positioning. It is best for players comfortable managing Bloom damage and enemy pressure.

3. Nefer + Lauma + Furina + Ineffa (Hypercarry Buff Stack)

Some guides also highlight a “hypercarry” Nefer team revolving around huge buffs and Moonsign synergies.

• Nefer – On-field DPS.
• Lauma – Lunar-Bloom engine and RES shred.
• Furina – Universal damage buffs and team HP manipulation.
• Ineffa – Nod-Krai unit who brings Lunar-element related benefits and extra support.

This team trades some Dendro redundancy for more offensive buffs and unique Luna-era synergies, favoring players who like high-investment, high-reward setups.

Strong F2P and Low-Investment Nefer Teams

Even without multiple 5-stars, Nefer can thrive in more accessible teams that still exploit Lunar-Bloom.

4. Nefer + Lauma + Yaoyao + Aino

Many budget-friendly guides highlight this as a “high-value, low-rarity” Nefer team.

• Nefer – Main DPS.
• Lauma – Lunar-Bloom support (5★, but central to Nefer; often pulled together).
• Yaoyao – 4-star Dendro healer/shielder whose C1 boosts teammates’ Dendro damage, giving both survivability and extra output.
• Aino – 4-star Hydro for continuous Hydro aura and extra reactions.

This lineup delivers strong reaction damage, steady healing, and comfortable rotations, making it an excellent option for players missing Nahida or multiple premium Hydros.

5. Nefer + Sucrose + Yaoyao + Aino

For players lacking Lauma, Sucrose is a surprisingly effective replacement as an EM-sharing support.

• Nefer – On-field Dendro DPS.
• Sucrose – Swirl and grouping support who shares Elemental Mastery, improving all reaction damage.
• Yaoyao – Dendro healer and off-field Dendro application.
• Aino – Hydro enabler and sub-DPS.

This team leverages Sucrose’s EM buffs and grouping to help Nefer’s Lunar-Bloom shine, using only one 5-star unit while remaining very competitive for most content.

Hyperbloom-Style Nefer Teams

Nefer can also be slotted into Hyperbloom setups where Electro converts Dendro cores into tracking projectiles. These teams slightly shift focus away from pure Lunar-Bloom but remain strong and flexible.

6. Nefer + Lauma + Yelan/Aino + Kuki Shinobu

This composition runs a Bloom → Hyperbloom loop, with Lunar-Bloom flavor depending on your setup.

• Nefer – Provides Dendro and helps produce cores.
• Lauma – Supports Lunar-Bloom mechanics and keeps Dendro uptime high.
• Yelan or Aino – Off-field Hydro application; Yelan adds strong single-target DPS and damage buffs, while Aino is more accessible.
• Kuki Shinobu – Off-field Electro that reliably triggers Hyperbloom, turning cores into homing bolts.

This team is excellent for multi-target combat and for players who enjoy the consistency and range of Hyperbloom projectiles on top of Nefer’s own contributions.

Flexible Fourth Slot Options

Once you have the Nefer + Dendro + Hydro core in place, the fourth slot can be tailored to your comfort or account:

• Healer/Shielders: Yaoyao, Baizhu, Diona, Kokomi – stabilize your runs, especially in Nilou-style Bloom teams.
• Extra Hydro: Yelan, Xingqiu, Furina, Neuvillette – more Hydro means more Blooms and extra damage or buffs.
• Additional Dendro: Nahida, Lauma, Yaoyao, Baizhu – dual or triple Dendro for stronger Dendro uptime and EM support.
• Anemo support: Sucrose or Kazuha for grouping and EM buffs if you are willing to run mixed-element comps.

When in doubt, start with Nefer + Hydro + Dendro + healer/buffer and adjust based on what your account is missing (damage, sustain, or comfort).

Nefer is at her best when surrounded by Dendro and Hydro teammates that let her trigger as many Lunar-Bloom reactions as possible, while feeding her Elemental Mastery and Moonsign bonuses. Premium rosters can pair her with Lauma, Nahida, and top-tier Hydros such as Aino, Nilou, or Furina, while more accessible lineups still perform very well using Sucrose, Yaoyao, and Aino. Once you lock in a Dendro–Hydro core and a support slot that fits your needs, Nefer can deliver consistently high reaction damage in nearly every combat scenario.
