Neverness to Everness Best Teams & Builds

Most launch players will lose damage not because of stats, but because of bad team structure. In Neverness to Everness, if your comp doesn’t consistently trigger reactions, it simply won’t scale.

This guide focuses on three functional teams and Five More Teams which perfectly fit the Current Meta, Each team is structured with clear roles, reaction logic, and practical execution.

 

Boss Execution Team

DPS	Sub-DPS	Support	Support
Daffodill	Nanally	Fadia	Adler

This team is built around multi-layered reaction stacking. Adler enables Incantation, which combines with Daffodill’s Chaos to trigger Scorch (DoT). Fadia and Daffodill enable Nova (delayed burst), and when both overlap, Discord is triggered—significantly accelerating break damage. The system runs multiple reactions simultaneously without requiring strict execution.

Fadia fundamentally changes survivability. By redirecting team damage to herself with a capped absorption threshold and non-lethal floor, she allows the team to maintain uptime under pressure. This creates a high-efficiency environment where DPS units can operate without interruption, making the comp extremely stable in extended boss fights.

Strengths	Highest single-target damage potential Strong break bar shredding Near-immortal survivability with proper Fadia build Scales exceptionally with investment
Weaknesses	High investment requirement Relies on specific units (low flexibility) Fadia must be properly built (HP stacking)

Rotation (Simplified)

• Adler opens → apply Incantation + shield
• Swap Daffodill → trigger Chaos → Scorch starts
• Swap Fadia → activate ability
• Swap Nanally → apply buffs / hits
• Loop based on procs
• Use ultimates only during stagger windows

Build Priorities

Adler	DEF / Shield scaling
Fadia	Full HP stacking
Daffodill	Chaos DMG / RES ignore
Nanally	Crit DMG / reaction scaling

 

AoE Farming Team

DPS	Sub-DPS	Support	Support
Nanally	Zero	Sakiri	Jiuyuan

This team is optimized around hit frequency and autonomous damage generation. Zero applies Cosmos, which combines with Nanally’s Anima to generate Blossom (auto-attacking entity). Jiuyuan adds grouping and enables additional reaction layering through Incantation (Hex). The result is a system where damage scales with the number of hits rather than burst windows.

Because multiple effects trigger independently, the team maintains constant pressure across large enemy groups. This makes it the most efficient setup for farming and wave-based content.

Strengths	Best AoE clear speed at launch High reaction uptime Scales with enemy count Flexible fourth slot
Weaknesses	Weaker single-target performance Lower burst damage vs bosses Requires basic positioning awareness

Rotation

• Open with Sakiri → group enemies
• Swap Zero → apply Cosmos
• Swap Nanally → sustained DPS
• Use Jiuyuan as needed for healing / tagging
• Repeat loop

Do not waste grouping skill on low-value mobs and maintain continuous hit generation.

Build Priorities

Zero	Cosmos DMG
Nanally	Crit / Anima scaling
Sakiri	utility (optional investment)
Jiuyuan	sustain / hybrid damage

 

F2P Transitional Team (Minimal Viable Setup)

DPS	Support	Support	Support
Chiz (or Zero)	Adler	Mint	Skia

This team functions as a baseline progression setup. It maintains basic reaction capability while prioritizing survivability and accessibility. Adler provides shields and setup, Mint enhances team output, and Chiz handles primary damage through skill and ultimate cycles. Skia compensates for the lack of advanced defensive mechanics with healing.

The structure is simple but effective for early and midgame. However, it lacks the reaction density and scaling required for high-end content, making it a temporary solution rather than a final build.

Strengths	Fully accessible / low investment Stable for early and midgame Flexible substitutions
Weaknesses	Low reaction efficiency Weak endgame scaling Slower boss clear speed

Rotation

• Adler → shield + setup
• Mint → buffs
• Chiz → DPS + ultimate
• Skia → heal when needed
• Repeat

Replace Chis with Daffodill as a priority, then transition into reaction-based comps, and add Nanally for scaling.

 

Hotori Solo-Carry Blossom Team

DPS	Sub-DPS	Support	Support
Hotori	Jiuyuan	Zero	Mint Sakiri Haniel

For players who joined during the second half of Version 1.0 and only pulled a high-investment Hotori, using Hotori as the main DPS is still a fairly suitable option. Thanks to the huge personal boost from her Awakenings, Hotori can serve as the team’s carry. Jiuyuan and Zero / Esper Zero are locked in to maintain the frequency of Blossom-generated Vita Buds and Vita Pistils. Although this setup lacks Nanally’s damage-doubling effect for Blossom damage, the team’s core logic still works.

The final slot depends on Hotori’s exact investment level. The lower Hotori’s investment is, the more recommended Mint becomes. The higher Hotori’s investment is, the stronger her own personal output becomes, so bringing another buffer becomes better. In that case, Sakiri or Haniel can be chosen.

Strengths	Solid low-to-mid investment option for players who mainly invested in Hotori Stable Blossom generation with Jiuyuan + Zero Flexible fourth slot depending on Hotori’s investment Higher Hotori investment greatly improves team ceiling
Weaknesses	Lacks Nanally’s Blossom damage amplification Relies heavily on Hotori’s personal investment Lower damage ceiling compared with Nanally Blossom Team

Rotation (Simplified）

Start with Zero → prepare Blossom-related setup

Swap Jiuyuan → maintain Blossom generation

Swap Mint / Sakiri / Haniel → apply healing or buffs

Swap Hotori → main damage window

Repeat the Blossom cycle and keep Hotori’s damage window active

Build Priorities

Character	Build Priority
Hotori	Main DPS stats, Crit, Element DMG, Awakening investment
Jiuyuan	Blossom support, reaction consistency
Zero	Blossom trigger / utility setup
Mint	Healing / sustain
Sakiri	ATK buff / damage support
Haniel	Buff support / utility

 

Baicang Discord–Scorch Team

DPS	Sub-DPS	Support	Support
Baicang	Daffodill Lacrimosa	Haniel Fadia	Sakiri Adler

Baicang’s experience in early Version 1.1 is quite solid. Stage 10 offers an extremely satisfying mob-clearing environment, while the following two stages are more single-target focused, but at least they come with weakness buffs.

In terms of team building, Baicang strongly needs a Chaos teammate, meaning you choose between Daffodill and Lacrimosa. Since Lacrimosa’s power level is extremely high, in most cases there is no real need to consider Baicang as the main carry, so Daffodill is usually the default choice.

For support slots, the best option is to run both Haniel and Sakiri. For the remaining lower-priority slot, Daffodill or Fadia can be used. Daffodill is only recommended for mob-heavy stages, while Sakiri’s lower slot can be replaced by Adler.

Strengths	Strong performance in mob-heavy stages Can take advantage of Discord and Scorch reactions Flexible support options Good early Version 1.1 Beyond the Rails performance
Weaknesses	Baicang needs a Chaos teammate to function smoothly If Lacrimosa is available, Baicang may lose main DPS priority Jiuyuan is only ideal in mob-heavy stages Lower ceiling than Lacrimosa-centered Discord teams

Rotation（ Simplified）

Start with Sakiri / Adler → apply buffs or utility

Swap Haniel / Fadia → activate support effects

Swap Daffodill / Lacrimosa → apply Chaos-related setup

Swap Baicang → main damage window

Refresh support buffs and repeat Discord–Scorch cycle

Build Priorities

Character	Build Priority
Baicang	Main DPS stats, Crit, damage scaling
Daffodill	Chaos DMG, Sub-DPS damage, reaction setup
Lacrimosa	Chaos DMG, DoT / reaction scaling
Haniel	Buff support
Fadia	HP / survivability support
Sakiri	ATK buff, DoT amplification
Adler	Shield / utility / defensive support

 

Chiz Charge-Stacking Team

DPS	Sub-DPS	Support	Support
Chiz	Jiuyuan Mint	Hathor Skia	Zero

Chiz’s team building in Version 1.1 still follows the Charge-stacking setup. For the Anima slot, choose either Jiuyuan or Mint. For the Lakshana slot, choose either Hathor or Skia. The final slot is recommended to stay fixed as Cosmos Zero, ensuring the Charge Esper Cycle can be triggered consistently and further increasing Chiz’s Ultimate frequency.

At the moment, Chiz’s extremely high baseline values still make her a strong choice for full-star Beyond the Rails clears. However, as more limited S-Class main DPS characters continue to release, Chiz’s investment value will gradually decline. On top of that, Chiz’s damage delivery is relatively clunky. As future boss mechanics become more complex, Chiz will likely fade out of the mainstream meta over time.

Strengths	Very high baseline damage Strong option for full-star Beyond the Rails clears Charge cycle increases Ultimate frequency Team structure is relatively clear and easy to understand
Weaknesses	Damage delivery can feel clunky Future boss mechanics may reduce her comfort Investment value may decline as more limited S-Class DPS units release Requires stable Charge triggering

Rotation（Simplified）

Start with Zero → prepare Charge trigger

Swap Jiuyuan / Mint → provide Anima slot support

Swap Hathor / Skia → provide Lakshana slot setup

Swap Chiz → main damage and Ultimate window

Repeat Charge cycle to maintain Ultimate frequency

Build Priorities

Character	Build Priority
Chiz	Main DPS stats, Crit, Ultimate damage
Jiuyuan	Reaction support / team cycle
Mint	Healing / sustain
Hathor	Sub-DPS / Charge enabler
Skia	Sub-DPS / Charge enabler
Zero	Charge trigger / cycle consistency

 

Lacrimosa Discord Team

DPS	Sub-DPS	Support	Support
Lacrimosa	Daffodill Hotori Adler	Haniel Fadia	Sakiri

Rather than saying Lacrimosa depends on Daffodill, it is more accurate to say that Lacrimosa depends on Sakiri. Besides Sakiri’s extremely high ATK buff, her first passive can provide an independent DoT damage multiplier when the target is affected by Scorch, making her a teammate Lacrimosa currently cannot give up.

For the Psyche teammate, Haniel is the best choice. If you have an A1 + signature Arc Fadia and are under heavy survival pressure, Fadia can also be used. As for Daffodill, if you have her at A1 + signature Arc, she is basically locked in. If not, or if she is only A0 + signature Arc, Hotori, Adler, and similar alternatives can be used instead.

At low to mid investment, Lacrimosa currently still cannot beat a fully developed Blossom team. However, Blossom teams have a relatively low spending ceiling. Once Lacrimosa reaches around A3 + signature Arc or A4 + signature Arc, she becomes stronger than Blossom teams at the same overall investment level.

Strengths	Extremely high ceiling with investment Strong single-target and DoT-oriented damage potential Sakiri greatly improves Lacrimosa’s damage output Can surpass Blossom teams at higher investment
Weaknesses	Mid-to-low investment may still lose to complete Blossom teams Strongly relies on specific support units Daffodill’s value depends heavily on her own investment Less beginner-friendly than Blossom teams

Rotation（Simplified）

Start with Sakiri → apply ATK buff and DoT support

Swap Haniel / Fadia → activate support or survivability tools

Swap Daffodill / Hotori / Adler → set up Chaos / utility effects

Swap Lacrimosa → main damage window

Keep Scorch / Discord-related effects active and repeat

Build Priorities

Character	Build Priority
Lacrimosa	Chaos DMG, DoT scaling, Crit, high Awakening investment
Daffodill	Chaos DMG, Sub-DPS damage, signature Arc value
Hotori	Burst DPS / secondary damage
Adler	Shield / utility support
Haniel	Buff support
Fadia	HP stacking / survivability
Sakiri	ATK buff, DoT amplification

 

Nanally Blossom Team

DPS	Sub-DPS	Support	Support
Nanally	Jiuyuan Mint	Zero	Hotori

This team reached its fully optimized form very quickly back in Version 1.0. Thanks to Nanally and Jiuyuan’s damage-doubling mechanics for Blossom flowers, Blossom teams currently have an extremely high floor while requiring relatively low investment. Even at a full A0 + signature Arc setup, Blossom flowers can account for around 40% of total damage, so the gap between this team and higher-investment teams is not actually that large. It is a genuine breath of fresh air in the current meta.

At high investment, Lacrimosa can surpass Nanally thanks to her powerful Awakening upgrades. However, launch DPS characters generally serve more of a transitional role, so unless you are pulling for personal preference, there is no real need to force a high-investment build. Because Nanally performs better at low investment, her Blossom team takes first place in this team recommendation list.

Strengths	Best overall low-investment team among the listed comps Extremely high damage floor Blossom damage can account for a large portion of total output Very efficient for A0 + signature Arc investment level Strong and comfortable team for the current meta
Weaknesses	Spending ceiling is lower than Lacrimosa teams Relies on Nanally and Jiuyuan’s Blossom amplification mechanics High-investment Lacrimosa can overtake it Team structure is relatively fixed

Rotation（ Simplified）

Start with Zero → prepare Blossom setup

Swap Jiuyuan / Mint → maintain Blossom cycle or sustain

Swap Hotori → apply secondary damage / Blossom-related support

Swap Nanally → main DPS window and Blossom damage amplification

Repeat cycle to keep Blossom damage active

Build Priorities

Character	Build Priority
Nanally	Main DPS stats, Crit, Blossom damage scaling
Jiuyuan	Blossom amplification / reaction consistency
Mint	Healing / sustain
Zero	Blossom trigger / utility setup
Hotori	Burst DPS / Blossom support / secondary damage

 

Conclusion

If a team fails, it is usually not due to stats—it is due to missing reaction loops and poor role distribution. Early roster strength directly impacts progression efficiency. Securing core units reduces both time investment and mechanical difficulty.
