Should You Pull?YES

Navia is a 5-star Geo Claymore carry whose damage revolves around Ceremonial Crystalshot and Crystallize shards. She does not need a full Geo team to function, which makes her more flexible than older Geo hypercarries. Pull Navia if you want a modern Geo DPS who can splash into mixed teams.

Navia is a 5-Star Geo Claymore character in Genshin Impact.

Talent Priority

Ceremonial CrystalshotPriority: Max (10)

Crown priority on Navia: Ceremonial Crystalshot. Most of their value scales here.

2
As the Sunlit Sky's Singing SalutePriority: High (8-10)

Level Navia's As the Sunlit Sky's Singing Salute after the priority talent; it smooths rotations and secondary damage.

3
Blunt RefusalPriority: Low (1-6)

Navia's Blunt Refusal can sit low; it barely moves clear times versus their other talents.

Nice-to-have on Navia — The Flexible Finesse of the Spina's President: If more than 3 stacks of Crystal Shrapnel are consumed when using Ceremonial Crystalshot, each stack consumed beyond the first 3 increases…. Not a must-pull breakpoint for most accounts.

Albedo
AlbedoGeoSub-DPS

Where Albedo goes hard is Abiogenesis: Solar Isotoma: it creates a Solar Isotoma using alchemy, which deals AoE Geo DMG on appearance. That's a Sub-DPS answer, while Navia is built as a Main DPS.

Chiori
ChioriGeoSub-DPS

Chiori's Fluttering Hasode summons the automaton doll Tamoto beside her and sweep her blade upward, dealing AoE Geo DMG to. That's a Sub-DPS answer, while Navia is built as a Main DPS.

Linnea
LinneaGeoSub-DPS

Where Linnea goes hard is Countermeasure: Lumi's Battle Cry!: it increases Linnea's interruption resistance. Pick Linnea when you want Sub-DPS duty instead of Navia's Main DPS pattern.

Zibai
ZibaiGeoMain DPS

Where Zibai goes hard is Heaven and Earth Made Manifest: it enters Lunar Phase Shift mode, infusing all Normal and Charged Attacks with Geo that cannot be. Competes with Navia for the same seat; the better fit is the kit your roster already feeds.
