The new Spiral Abyss rotation is here, and if you’re staring at those enemy lineups wondering which team to pick, you’re not alone. Luna I Phase 2 brings fresh challenges with new Nod-Krai enemies and Ley Line Disorders that’ll make or break your run. Let’s break down the absolute best team compositions to help you ace every floor.
Genshin Impact Understanding Luna I’s Blessing System
Here’s the core mechanic you need to know: this rotation heavily favors Dendro characters triggering Bloom and Lunar-Bloom reactions. The Blessing of the Abyssal Moon grants massive damage boosts when Dendro reactions trigger, essentially rewarding you for building around Dendro DPS units like Lauma, Nahida, and Alhaitham.
This means if you’ve been sleeping on Dendro characters, now’s the time to dust them off and get them into your rotation.
Floor 11: The Warm-Up Round
Floor 11 dishes out a 60% DMG buff to all Dendro and Electro party members. This is a gift—lean into it hard.
| Best Floor 11 Teams | Best For | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| Lauma + Nahida + Nilou + Kokomi | Bloom-focused DPS | Easy |
| Lauma + Nahida + Aino + Kuki Shinobu | Electro hybrid | Easy |
| Raiden Shogun + Nahida + Yelan + Xingqiu | Electro chaos | Medium |
| Varesa + Furina + Iansan + Xilonen | Physical/Phys hybrid | Medium |
The first half responds beautifully to standard Dendro-Hydro Bloom teams, while the second half opens up more flexibility. If you don’t have premium Dendro carries, Raiden Shogun with proper support absolutely shreds this floor. The key? Build your AoE DPS with solid support, and you’ll demolish Chamber 1 and 2 with minimal stress.
Floor 12: Where It Gets Spicy
Floor 12 separates the casual players from the grinders. Each half has completely different Ley Line Disorders, demanding specialized team compositions.
First Half: Bloom-Heavy (200% Bloom DMG, 75% Lunar-Bloom DMG)
| Best First Half Teams | Enemy Lineup |
|---|---|
| Lauma + Nahida + Nilou + Kokomi | Radiant Antelope, Tainted Phantom, Rock Crab |
| Alhaitham + Aino + Nahida + Kokomi | Rock Crab requires Bloom focus |
| Nilou + Nahida + Dendro Traveler + Kokomi | Budget-friendly alternative |
The Radiant Antelope demands consistent healing—don’t skimp on that Kokomi investment. The Battle-Scarred Rock Crab is basically a Bloom punching bag if you build correctly. Pro tip: focus on those Stoneborne Seeds it deploys—destroy them early or they’ll overwhelm you.
Second Half: Electro-Charged Mayhem (200% Electro-Charged DMG, 75% Lunar-Charged DMG)
| Best Second Half Teams | Enemy Lineup |
|---|---|
| Flins + Ineffa + Aino + Sucrose | Standard Electro-Charged |
| Raiden Shogun + Furina + Yelan + Kokomi | Premium Electro scaling |
| Tartaglia + Ineffa + Furina + Ororon | Hydro-Electro hybrid |
The second half introduces Nod-Krai Local Legends, and they don’t play nice. The Battle-Hardened Fireblade Shock Trooper is the real threat—it deploys a tanky shield requiring constant Electro-Charged reactions. Bringing at least two Nod-Krai characters makes this significantly easier, but skilled players can brute-force with non-Nod-Krai teams.
The Secret Sauce: Team Flexibility
What makes Luna I special? You don’t need perfect 5-star teams to clear it. Smart building with 4-stars and strategic 5-stars gives you multiple valid approaches. Nahida carries the floor for Dendro teams, but Dendro Traveler works as a 4-star alternative (albeit requiring more investment).

Common Mistakes to Avoid
Don’t bring pure physical damage to the first half—those enemies resist it hard. Don’t neglect healing on the Radiant Antelope phase—one burst from that thing melts unprepared teams. And absolutely don’t ignore elemental reaction bonuses—this rotation is literally designed to reward reaction-heavy play.
Final Verdict
Luna I Phase 2 rewards preparation and smart team-building. If you have Dendro carries built, this is your victory lap. If not, Electro-Charged teams provide a solid alternative for the second half. The key is understanding which Ley Line bonus you’re facing and building accordingly.

FAQs
Q: Can I clear Floor 12 without Bloom teams?
A: Yes, but it’s harder. The first half massively favors Bloom with 200% DMG bonus, making it the path of least resistance. However, skilled players with strong Vaporize or other reaction teams can clear it—just expect more time investment.
Q: Do I need 5-star characters to full-star this Abyss?
A: Absolutely not. Many 4-star characters like Yaoyao, Kuki Shinobu, Sucrose, and Xingqiu carry tremendous weight. The Dendro Traveler and Lauma (if you own her) cover Dendro needs. Smart building beats rarity every time in this rotation.
