Shinku is one of the coolest DPS characters introduced in NTE. She is very powerful, her animations look stunning, and she is very easy to play. However, Shinku is very dependent on using her proper build. Without her proper build, Shinku’s damage drops significantly, much more so than compared to other DPS units in the game. So, find out the best NTE Shinku build from our guide and squeeze the maximum amount of damage out of her kit.

Neverness to Everness (NTE) Shinku Build

Shinku is a really strong character, but severely dependent on her build. She is an on-field DPS who doesn’t require energy to charge her Ultimate. You can check how she fares against the other characters in our NTE tier list. Now, let’s see Shinku’s best build in NTE:

TypeInformationArcBlushing MirageCartridgeLost RadianceModule StatsCrit Rate = Crit DMG > DMG % > Cycle Intensity > ATK%TeamShinku, Hathor, Esper Zero, Jiuyuan

Shinku is a proper DPS, so you need to prioritize stacking as much Crit Rate and Crit DMG on her as possible. Try to reach 70% Crit Rate and 150% Crit DMG to achieve the best NTE Shinku build. Next, prioritize universal DMG% and Cycle Intensity. Other than that, ATK% is also fine for her sub-stats.

Now, if you are running out of Annuliths and cannot pull Shinku, you need to use NTE codes from our list. Get free Annuliths and pull your favorite characters from the NTE banners.

Shinku Arcs (Weapons)

When it comes to Arcs or weapon options for Shinkyu, there are a few really good choices. Here are the best NTE Shinku Arcs:

PriorityNameBestBlushing MirageAlternativeCamellia Society
What’s Desired
Fluff of Ferocity

First, Blushing Mirage, or Shinku’s signature arc, will always be her first choice option. This arc gives a massive ATK% and Cosmos DMG buff, while also allowing her to ignore 12% of enemy DEF. Now, if you don’t want to get Shinku’s signature arc, the best alternative will be Camellia Society, followed by What’s Desired. If you are looking for an A-class option, Fluff of Ferocity is currently the best choice for the NTE Shinku build.

Shinku Cartridge and Stats

Now, to get the most out of Shinku’s build, you need to use her proper cartridge and stats. Here is the best NTE Shinku cartridge:

Priority and StatNameBestLost RadianceAlternative–StatsCrit Rate > Cosmos DMG

The best NTE Shinku’s build has only one viable cartridge option, and it is Lost Radiance. This set buffs Cosmos DMG, while allowing the equipped character to ignore 25% of enemy DEF after casting Ultimate. Overall, there is no better option or close alternative to Shinku’s cartridge.

When it comes to stats, unlike Chaos, your priority should be building Crit Rate. If you have already achieved the necessary Crit Rate with sub-stats, then you can also opt in for Cosmos DMG.

Shinku Module Layout and Best Stats

As always, you need to equip the proper module layout for Shinku with her best cartridge to unlock her full potential. Here is a quick look at Shinku’s module layout and best sub stats:

TypeInformationLayoutBonus ModuleType III — Chaos DMGSub StatsCrit Rate = Crit DMG > DMG % > Cycle Intensity > ATK%

When it comes to the Type III bonus module stats, always go for Chaos DMG. Next, as discussed earlier, you need to build as much Crit Rate and Crit DMG as possible on Shinku. This will let you get the most out of her kit.

NTE Shinku Teams

Finally, Shinku’s best build is nothing without her best team. Here are the best Shinku teams in NTE:

DPSSub-DPSSupport/Sub-DPSSub-DPS/SupportShinkuHathorEsper ZeroJiuyuanShinkuEsper ZeroJiuyuanSakiriShinkuHotoriJiuyuanEsper ZeroShinkuEsper ZeroJiuyuanHaniel

Shinku’s best allies are Jiuyuan and Esper Zero. Without them, her damage will drop significantly. You need both of them in all of her teams. Other than that, the fourth slot can be taken by Hathor, Sakirit, Hotori, or Haniel. Any of these options should work well, but Hathor is a clear favorite among them.

So, there you have it. This is the best NTE Shinku build and teams. Have more questions about Shinku? Ask us in the comments section below.
