Neuvillette is one of those characters that is honestly a great pull. I was fortunate enough to get him and I now main him with Raiden!
*Disclaimer: This is my opinion.*
Basic Info + Opinion:
Ever since Neuvillette released he's been at the top of the meta and the best DPS in the game who can even solo the abyss. He is honestly so fun and simple that I really enjoy using him in various teams.
He's super fun and a character I had wanted ever since I first heard of him. Of course he has already stapled himself as the best DPS in the game by the time that happened but nonetheless he was still someone I was willing to spend on.
Kit and Abilities Analysis + Overview:
Neuvillette is honestly really easy to build. It's just HP and crit.
Not only that but his playstyle is absolutely braindead. It's so overwhelming simple that it's charged attack kills everything. No complex rotations (though I enjoy them at times), just one simple action of holding the attack button. And it's fun.
I have no idea how something so braindead and seemingly mundane could be so entertaining. It's not because it kills everything but because it's so funny to watch him kill everything with a giant water laser. He can even float over water with it which makes things even better. And also his design is top-tier.
And how is this man always getting some new buff?? Mauvika can be used with him and Citlali can be used with him and he can be by himself. It's absurd how overpowered and fun he is. And I know I love Neuvillette but everything I say is true. This character is broken. What more can I say? Broken. Cracked. OP. And how many teams can this guy fit into? Why are there so many?
Also the sheer fact that he can activate 4 pc MH without Furina says a whole lot. Furina is also good with him. Then there's almost every single character you can think of. Neuvillette has so much value as a character that it's so hard not to use him. Fontaine actually set an entirely new bar for DPS characters that it's baffling. This guy is even self-sustainable. Why else can he solo the Abyss?
Thinking about it now, his kit is mind-boggling. And don't get me started on his C1. Interruption resistance that Neuvillette can appreciate? In a C1?? That's insane. There is no special rotation to give or team to share because he doesn't need any of that. There's so much this man can do.
His charged attack even has incredible AOE. He can fight solo or in multi-waved enemies. I still can't believe he can do so much. Because how can such a simple character do so much?
Yes, his charged attack drains his HP to 50% but he can heal it back up from the Sourcewater Droplets he produces with his burst and skill. Like you are telling me a character can do all of this? Neuvillette feels so different compared to past characters that I'm not sure what to say.
I have nothing left to say. He's just so good. His damage is very consistent. What else is there to say other than the fact that he is absolutely broken?
Peace! Sincerely, Kire.
