Genshin Impact Luna II Phase I Character Banners: Should You Pull for Nefer or Furina?
The Genshin Impact Luna II Phase I Character banners feature two exciting 5-star characters: Nefer and Furina. Players interested in enhancing their roster can also try their luck with the Weapon banner, Epitome Invocation, to obtain signature weapons that complement these characters. Both Nefer and Furina are excellent units capable of aiding players in clearing challenging endgame content such as Stygian Onslaught and the Spiral Abyss.
Many gamers may wonder whether to pull for Nefer or Furina during the Luna II update. Since these characters fill different roles and shine in unique team compositions, the choice ultimately depends on your current account’s needs and playstyle preferences.
Note: Some parts of this article are subjective and reflect the writer’s personal opinions.
Nefer’s Pull Value
Nefer is a 5-star Dendro Catalyst user who functions as a main DPS, excelling by triggering the Lunar-Bloom Elemental Reaction. She is capable of dealing significant damage in her optimal team setups, which commonly include characters like Nahida, Kokomi, and Lauma.
To maximize Nefer’s damage output, it is essential to activate the Lunar-Bloom reaction, which requires the presence of a Hydro character in her team. Her primary source of damage comes from a special Charged Attack that can be triggered after using her Elemental Skill. However, players need to accumulate at least one Verdant Dew stack to activate this powerful attack. Verdant Dew stacks build up when party members trigger the Lunar-Bloom reaction.
One important consideration for building Nefer’s team is the choice of Hydro characters. Since her Charged Attack is fundamental to her damage cycle, off-field Hydro characters like Xingqiu and Yelan may not synergize well, as their Hydro application depends on the active character’s Normal Attacks. Therefore, limited Hydro options such as Aino, Furina, or Kokomi fit better in her compositions.
Another critical synergy factor is Nefer’s interaction with Lauma. Without Lauma in the party, her damage potential significantly drops because Lauma provides valuable buffs and continuous off-field Dendro application that boosts Nefer’s overall DPS.

Furina’s Pull Value
Furina is a 5-star Hydro support and off-field DPS character known for her versatility in various team compositions. She excels at providing consistent Hydro application and damage via her Elemental Skill, which summons up to three creatures that attack nearby enemies.
However, Furina’s Elemental Skill consumes the HP of all party members while active. She also possesses a second form of this skill that can be toggled via her Charged Attack. In this alternate form, Furina stops summoning creatures but gains healing capabilities for the active character.
Arguably the most valuable part of Furina’s kit is her Elemental Burst. It grants a powerful damage buff to all party members. During combat, when party HP fluctuates — either decreasing or increasing — Furina gains Fanfare stacks. Each stack enhances incoming healing and the damage of all characters in the team.
Because Furina reduces the HP of all teammates when her skill is active, it is highly recommended to include a healer in her team to mitigate this drawback. To maximize the benefits of her Fanfare stacks, pairing her with healers such as Escoffier, Xilonen, Baizhu, or Jean is advisable as their healing helps Furina quickly build stacks and maintain team survivability.

Conclusion: Nefer or Furina?
Deciding whether to pull for Nefer or Furina in the Genshin Impact Luna II version largely depends on your account’s current roster and gameplay preferences.
- If you already own Lauma and desire a powerful DPS unit to help clear challenging endgame content like Spiral Abyss or Stygian Onslaught, Nefer is a strong choice. She can deal impressive damage, especially when supported by appropriate team members.
- On the other hand, if you need a versatile Hydro sub-DPS and support who provides valuable team-wide buffs, Furina is an excellent option. Her unique mechanics let her function well in diverse team compositions, and her buffing potential can elevate your overall team performance.
Ultimately, evaluate your existing lineup and content goals before making a decision on who to pull during the Luna II event.
