Genshin's 6.1 Luna II update (Oct 22, 2025) flips the meta hard toward Lunar-Bloom—think 20-30% Dendro amps that make SS/S-tier DPS like Mavuika, Nefer, and Flins absolutely shine. Supports? Lauma, Bennett, Kazuha lead the pack. To smash Floor 12's beefed-up 375% enemy HP, stack 1000+ EM and 160-200% ER. Premium squads with Nilou/Lauma/Aino/Baizhu blitz sub-90s clears; F2P options hold strong at lv80/90 with 8/8/8 talents.
Quick 6.1 Tier List Breakdown (November 2025)
Patch 6.1 screams for 2+ Nod-Krai units to unlock Ascendant Gleam—that's +10% CRIT Rate and 20% CRIT DMG on Lunar-Bloom reactions. Spiral Abyss this cycle (Nov 16) piles on 200% Bloom/Electro-Charged buffs plus 75% Lunar bonuses. Our rankings? Laser-focused on Floor 12 36-star clears using lv80/90 characters at 8/8/8 talents with +16 artifacts.
Lunar-Bloom ignores enemy DEF, detonates in 1.2s over a 3.5m AoE, and scales off your party's total damage output—100% from the top DPS, 50% from the second. Pump in 1000 EM on a crit, and you're hitting 68,812 damage per pop versus the usual 6-8k from standard Bloom. Wild, right?
Key foes and their HP pools: Tainted Water-Splitting Phantasm at 851,787; Primordial Bathysmal Vishap at 2,085,774; Fireblade Shock Trooper topping 4,765,990.
Quick playbook:
Lock in 2+ Nod-Krai (Lauma's your girl here) for Moonsign lvl2.
Target 1000+ EM, 50% CRIT Rate/200% DMG, and ER at 180% for DPS or 200% on supports.
Abyss test runs: Frostnight Herra takes 50 hits; Battle-Hardened Lightkeeper drains 238.46% base HP.
The Lunar-Bloom math? [Base + (Lauma EM × 4.608)] × Resistance × Level Multiplier (1.7x boost, fully CRIT-capable).

SS/S-Tier DPS: The Meta Kings
SS-tier heavy-hitters: Mavuika (5★ Pyro Claymore), Nefer (5★ Dendro Catalyst), Flins (5★ Electro Polearm), and Neuvillette (5★ Hydro Catalyst). S-tier slots Arlecchino (5★ Pyro Polearm) for single-target beast mode. We judge by 2000+ ATK, 60-70% CRIT Rate, and killer Lunar-Bloom/Lunar-Charged synergy.
Mavuika thrives on Crimson Witch 4pc or Obsidian Codex 4pc with her sig A Thousand Blazing Suns—2000+ ATK, and Lunar-Charged outpaces Vaporize by 20-30%. Nefer? Night of Sky's Unveiling 4pc or Reliquary of Truth (88.2% CRIT DMG/16% Rate), 1000+ EM for a 75% damage spike; her CA gobbles Seeds of Deceit. Flins rocks Thundering Fury 4pc/Bloodsoaked Ruins (674 ATK/22.1% CRIT Rate/36% Lunar-Charged), fueling 600% Electro-Charged at 2000-2200 ATK.
Benchmarks from 36-star Abyss runs: Lunar-Charged ticks 9k at 300 EM/300 CRIT Value, scaling to 27.5k with 1500 EM/440 CRIT Value.
Build blueprint:
Mavuika: ATK% Sands, Pyro DMG Goblet, CRIT Circlet—+16 artifacts first, skip +20 early.
Nefer: EM/EM/CRIT mains; snag C1 for ER and Skill damage.
Flins: ATK% over Electro DMG; double Electro core means -20-40% ER tweaks.
Talent order: DPS to 80/90 at 8/8/8.
Pull for Nefer, Mavuika, or Flins if you're chasing the meta edge.
6.1's Best Supports: Glue That Wins Wars
SS supports dominate with Lauma (5★ Dendro Catalyst—100% Dendro uptime, 25% RES shred), Bennett (Noblesse 4pc, C6 Pyro infusion), and Furina (Golden Troupe 4pc). S-tier: Kazuha (Viridescent Venerer 4pc, -40% RES shred), Xilonen (Archaic Petra 4pc), Nahida (Deepwood 4pc, C2 +250 EM).

Killer Lunar-Bloom Comps and Rotations
Premium clears: Nilou/Lauma/Aino/Baizhu sub-90s Floor 12; Flins/Ineffa/Aino/Sucrose pumps 600% Lunar-Charged with 3 shields/30s. F2P: Dendro Traveler/Xingqiu/Kuki/Fischl for Hyperbloom (Kuki at 800+ EM in Flower of Paradise Lost 4pc).
Nilou shreds Rock Crabs (4,409,072 HP) at 500% Bloom. Nefer/Lauma/Nahida/Aino rotation: Nahida N1 > B > Aino E > B > Nahida E > Lauma E > B > Nefer E > 2CA dash cancel > B. Or Lauma/Aino/Furina/Kazuha: Kazuha E > Q > Furina E > Lauma Hold E > Q > Aino Hydro.
Rotation cheatsheet:
Lunar-Bloom: Lauma Skill → Aino Burst → Nilou x3 Skill.
Lunar-Charged: Aino Skill → Flins Skill → Ineffa Burst → Sucrose Burst.
Floor 12-1 AoE: Nefer/Lauma/Aino/Nahida.
F2P flex: Lauma/Aino/Kaveh/Xingqiu or Collei/Yaoyao/Kuki/Barbara (180%+ ER bursts). Premium Nilou/Lauma? 1.5M cores, 420s left (600 Primogems). F2P Traveler/Xingqiu: lv90 8/8/8 DPS, 1/8/8 supports—3-stars work fine.
Quick Builds for the Top Dogs
ER targets: 160-180% DPS, 180%+ sub-DPS, 200%+ supports. Talents: DPS 80/90 8/8/8; prioritize +16 Sands/Goblet.
Yelan loves Golden Troupe 4pc (HP%/Hydro DMG/CRIT, 180% ER). Ineffa? Emblem 4pc. Constels: Flins C2 (140-160% ER); Lauma C4 (Dendro lock-in); C0 stays optimal for most.
Build hacks:
Sigs: Mavuika's A Thousand Blazing Suns; Nefer's Reliquary of Truth.
