Neuvillette is technically one of the 'cheapest' 5 stars cause you can basically use anyone with him(just preferably different elements), and can use a craftable as best 4 star weapon thats not from battle pass
not sure what requirements youre worried about

Varesa is also very easy to use, mainly cause they put the two best teammates on her banner, and you just add some pyro

if you got friends insisting on Neuvillette, if you dont have an interest in Neuvillette, get new friends

J-_Mad2026-01-10 22:51

Dude, what ?

Joe_from_ungvar2026-01-10 22:52

Dude, be more specific

J-_Mad2026-01-10 22:54

That last paragraph ?

Joe_from_ungvar2026-01-10 23:00

i dont see a problem
insisting on ANY character for someone else's account is weird

J-_Mad2026-01-11 01:13

Telling someone to get new friends because of their opinion on a video game character is what's weird

Joe_from_ungvar2026-01-11 07:04

not on their opinion of the game, on trying to insist on someone else's choices, in a game. something that wont affect them

Well since I am a new player so I used my first 45 on that banner only so I have all three of the banner 4 stars and a keqiing which I got from the beginner banner.And hell nah it's not easy to find new friends who play genshin.

Joe_from_ungvar2026-01-10 22:58

are they the type of people that will get mad if you dont go for Neuvillette?

Varesa with pyro like Xiangling, Iansan and Chev is really easy to use. i prefer pyro traveler but that requries story
youre so new, you can literally afford to get both her and Neuvillette

Take this as only one of the opinions to consider, but the thing with "pull whoever you like" is the best approach.

You have crapton of content before you, so worrying about Imaginarium, Stygian or Abyss Spiral just shouldn't be a thing for a while, so you don't need to start chasing meta before you even catch up with story and exploration.

If you had fun with character in trial, like their design, and want to have that character then pull for them.

Normaluser0102026-01-10 22:55

Well veressa was not even a question but my friend pulled veressa and I started questioning neuvillete choice.

I'll give you a slightly counter opinion to the guy above. In general, pull who you like is good advice, but I don't think it's what you should do as a new player. Once you're a higher AR account, you have at least one functional team, you can at least complete any domain/boss, that's when pull whoever you want should start. At that point, a majority of the game is easy enough that who you pull doesn't matter.

Early game though, while you're progressing through AR ranks, there is at least one break point where the game can be difficult. That break point is around AR 45.

Before that point, (by design) any build and team is essentially shit made of scraps. You don't have many characters, the ones you do have are stuck at low lvls/talent lvls do to lack of access to the higher lvl materials. You're mostly using 3* artifacts with the occasional 4*s on your top characters. Not all, but many people aren't actively farming for good artifact sets because you're just going to have to replace them later and the game is literally so easy that you don't need to. Purely just based on stats alone, you do almost no damage. So the game balances accordingly and nothing feels too hard.

At AR 45 you unlock the ability to farm 5* artifacts. The game ramps up the difficulty fairly steeply at this point because it expects you to have more proper builds and teams.

Again, not everyone, but I've known people who quit here because the game doesn't really prepare you properly for the difficulty spike. It's gotten better, but in general how to build characters and teams is something you learn from resources outside the game.

So to the point, pulling only who you like can have a compound effect with this difficulty spike if you're unlucky. If the characters you pull end up having zero synergy or are heavily restrictive, it can just feel bad. Even when you start learning how to build properly, you may just not have the characters to build your first solid team.

My recommendation is to pull just 1 character that is low investment meta and if you want 1 support for that character, then switch to pulling however you like. In this case, Neuvillete is an excellent low investment character. Someone like Furina is a great low investment support character.

My over explanation might make it seem like I'm making a big deal out of this, but at the end of the day it really isn't that deep. There's no such thing as a bricked account, especially if you have friends that can help you. This advice is mainly just to make your transition from early game to mid-game and mid game to end game smoother.

Neuvi is great since he has some self sustain and decent damage especially against multi targets.
However he NEEDS a shield or some form of interruption resistance or it is the most annoying experience of your life to play him. He is also not the greatest when you need high single target damage unless he has a stacked team of supporters.
His gameplay also gets really boring after a while, he suffers from the same issue Ganyu has.

Varesa is much easier to play and has more team options and is just overall more fun imo. but her combo can be messed up much easier than Neuvi, if you accidentally double skill or something.

But it does come down to personal prefrence.
Do you want a hold charge attack gameplay or plunge attack spam gameplay with Varesa skill attack attack skill attack attack burst combo.

Ordinarypanic2026-01-10 22:53

Varessa’s banner has 2 characters that you’d almost always use with her, Neuvilette is relatively more expensive not to mention he tends to pair with Furina whose banner passed.

SecyaDenali2026-01-10 22:56

I highly recommend doing the trial on characters before getting them. Also first thing before anything else do you like them.

Personally and this just my personal opinion

Ineffa > Varesa >>> Nuevilette

Ineffa = Requires the least amount of work to get going, shes my frst 5 star and i was in the exact position you are now. I cleared floor 11 of the abyss with 3 stars with just her, Barbara and Anemo traveller after a couple of days before when I was struggling to get 2. It doesnt sound like much but it was a huge deal. Shes abosolutely outright powerful for a new player. Barbara or Aino, Ineffa burst and skill and can walk around everything dies. And Sucrose is free thats a team right there day one. Also last cycle was my first time getting 36 star in the abyss with Arlecchino, C1 Aino, C0 Bennett and Ineffa doing her thing as the team.

Varesa = Scales very well but reqiures specific 4 stars to maximise her team dps output. Incredibly strong off rip i lost my 50/50 on my alt, sadge. OP explorer btw.

Nuevilette = Older unit, still strong objectively as a hydro driver but reqiures the most investment to keep pace also Furina just had her rerun.

But yeah Sucrose, Aino, Ineffa even if the 4 stars are C0 (Aino might be on the next banner but that doesnt matter) will be your best team by a literal universe right now.

Ineffa is a f2p dream character.

Neuvillete is great for anything combat related, one of the best comfort units that deal massive damage.

Varesa on the other hand deals the same good damage but she requires a little more practice to know her best combo, but she's amazing for exploration.

Based on that, looking at both their gameplays, decide.

Lucky-chan2026-01-10 23:00

If you are a new player, it's possible to get both if you're willing to do a lot of content in a relatively short period of time. Neuvillette is rerunning in the second half, so that gives you several weeks to farm.

But if you were to only pick one, I'd go for Varesa because her best 4-star teammates are in the banner with her. Although it also depends on whether or not you are able to pull them. Varesa also has amazing exploration utility.

Normaluser0102026-01-10 23:08

Well I got all 3 4 star characters from banner

Lucky-chan2026-01-10 23:11

Then more constellations for Iansan and Chevreuse are good if you are willing to pull.

DanielDKXD2026-01-11 00:20

>All my friends are saying to wait for neuvillete?

He isn't even that good anymore lol. Varessa is stronger if you are just asking about how much damage their teams do lately.

My advice would be Columbina followed by Ineffa or Zi Bai, for a super strong 2 unit team.
