Navia is a 5-star Geo claymore user from Fontaine introduced in Version 4.3. As the elegant yet forceful president of the Spina di Rosula, Navia combines poise with raw damage.
The best Navia build emphasizes her explosive Geo damage, fast claymore combos, and her unique ability to fire Crystal Shrapnel via her Elemental Skill — a mechanic that scales with the number of Crystallize shields generated.
Navia thrives in teams that actively trigger Crystallize reactions, enabling her to accumulate ammo and unleash powerful Skill-based nukes.
Her playstyle stands out for blending raw Geo DPS with team synergy that rewards consistent reaction setup, making her a flexible carry or sub-DPS in both mono-Geo and mixed-element teams.

The more shields you create, the stronger her next volley. Use her Elemental Skill after building up ammo, then follow with Elemental Burst for high Geo AoE damage.
The best Navia build involves rotating through your support units to apply Pyro, Cryo, Electro, or Hydro and generate Crystallize reactions.
When ammo is ready, use her Skill at close or mid-range, then swap to Burst for a powerful finisher. Shielders like Zhongli or Diona can also keep her safe while generating Crystallize particles.
Yes — Navia is one of the strongest Geo DPS units in the game. Her stylish playstyle, reaction synergy, and massive burst potential make her worth building even outside of mono-Geo teams.
