Synergies

As a character, Lisa thrives as an On-field Aggravate DPS, dealing damage, taking advantage of her persistent Electro Application, and benefiting from being on-field by driving valuable teammates. Complimentary teammates will include Electro, Dendro, and Anemo units for this role in particular.

Lisa can also manage as an On-field DPS without Dendro, as seen in her Electro-Charged teams, which would instead prefer Electro, Hydro, and Anemo units. However, her best teams involve Dendro since her synergy with its reactions highlights her effectiveness the most.

In contrast, Reaction Lisa has different preferences regarding team components. For her Hyperbloom teams, Hydro and Dendro units are necessary, and they may also appreciate certain Electro or Anemo units. For her Overloaded teams, Pyro and Anemo units instead are prioritized.

---

As an Off-field DPS, Lisa still prefers to play alongside Dendro characters to benefit from valuable reactions. She will also favor having another Electro unit to serve as a Battery for her Elemental Burst to maintain her off-field presence. Lisa may still perform as an Off-field DPS without Dendro, but her value diminishes without her advantageous reactions. She also prefers to play in teams that can rotate around her 16s and 20s CDs on her Skill and Burst, respectively. Therefore, on-field units that can function throughout Lisa's time off-field will pair neatly.

---

When Lisa intends to play a Support role, she contributes by buffing or providing off-field Electro Application. Although her form of buffing is universal, and she can theoretically slot into numerous teams, only niche teams can fully extract the value of a Support Lisa. Typical examples include teams that concentrate team buffs and debuffs onto an on-fielder.

---

With those explained, let us examine how some highlightable characters may work within Lisa’s kit and their potential synergies with Lisa herself (in alphabetical order). Notable characters who can play a supportive role commonly found in Lisa's teams will briefly cover their preferred builds in whichever of her archetypes is relevant to them.
Should a unit be omitted in the following section, it is likely because they are majorly niche, potentially difficult to access, vastly detrimental, or slightly uncooperative with Lisa’s kit.

However, an extended version of this section may be found here.

Team Compositions

Here is a friendly reminder that the following teams below are not strict teams Lisa necessarily has to follow, but rather are compositions or skeletons that have seen success due to how the characters mechanically play with one another or as a team itself. This ideal should not discourage you but, instead, serve as a baseline for you to know how Lisa can succeed.

The order in which subsequent teammates appear when listed below in the following teams is slightly relevant as well.

Not all rotations for every permutation of teams that are focused around Lisa will be provided within this section. Should you be curious to find rotations for less common variations, you may find a rotation for a specific team here in this ongoing collection sheet: Lisa-Centered Team Rotations.

Electro On-field DPS

---

Aggravate Lisa

Aggravate is assuredly Lisa’s best archetype due to how synergistic her kit is with this specific playstyle. Her innate EM, rapid Electro Application, relatively quick attacks, access to DEF Shred, and potential out of the 4-piece Thundering Fury (TF) artifact set are all factors as to why Lisa fits as well as she does here. Given Lisa has access to on-demand Electro Application with relatively fast and ranged attacks, she will be the team’s principal on-field unit, reaping all the benefits available while simultaneously buffing other teammates—so much so that she can rival other Electro Aggravate on-fielders.

Provided Lisa is equipped with 4-piece TF, utilizing her Tap Skill Chain combos will be common to optimize her Electro Application and for efficiency. Should Xilonen be incorporated and have her C2, then 4-piece TF is even more essential to upkeep with Lisa’s now permanent Burst uptime, allowing her to cast one Hold Skill per Burst.

• A variety of Dendro options can slot in Lisa's teams, with the choice often coming down to whether a defensive or offensive off-field Dendro Applier is preferred. 
• Many Electro characters can fit for Energy, damage, or utility, but none have as much synergy with Lisa as does Fischl. With Fischl as the secondary Electro, Lisa supplies her direct synergy by triggering constant Electro Applications for Fischl’s A4 Passive, enabling potent damage. 
• Most Anemo characters suit well in this composition due to their access to 4-piece VV, buffing much of the team’s damage, and grouping or general utility—all of which Lisa and other select units benefit from. There are also other characters who can perform similarly to an Anemo character, namely some Geo characters. A prominent option to an Anemo character is Xilonen—especially if Xilonen has her C2—enabling similar performance but can raise Lisa’s prowess with investment. Lisa is one of the only few Electro characters who can fully utilize the 6s Burst CDR and 25 Electro Energy from Xilonen’s C2.

Hydro and Pyro should be exempt as options for teammates as they may consume the Quicken aura. However, the team’s general Elemental Application can recover the Quicken aura should someone not apply Hydro or Pyro as frequently. Units like those with a slower application can manage to fit inside this team skeleton and be viable, but doing so ruins the integrity of being an Aggravate team—these teams are instead discussed later.

When playing Lisa's Aggravate teams, a key objective is routinely maintaining uptime on various buffs and off-field damage. These include sustaining a Quicken aura by reapplying Dendro, recasting off-field Electro damage sources, and triggering Electro Swirls to reapply an Anemo unit's 4-piece VV debuff.

For many Anemo/Flex and Dendro units, the following beginning action order can cover multiple of Lisa's rotations:

• Lisa applies Electro via Normal Attacks or Tap Skills. 
• The Anemo, or similar functioning, character casts their various abilities to Electro Swirl (or Crystallize) and incur buffs if present.
• The secondary Electro character casts their abilities.*
• The Dendro character casts their abilities.*
• Lisa remains on-field for around an 8-second window. She often enters and exits the field by casting her Burst and/or executing a Hold Skill combo, with the intermediary duration consisting of Normal Attacks and Tap Skills.
• Cycle back and continue from the Anemo character onwards.

*Note that after the Anemo/Flex character's actions, swapping the order of the secondary Electro and Dendro characters can still be viable.

Specifically for Abyss Chambers, beginning any of her rotations with a Hold Skill is also a valid option if previous battles did not garner enough Energy.

Below, you may find some common variations and their playable rotations.
Here is a reminder should you be curious to find rotations for less common variations of this archetype or any of Lisa’s archetypes in future sections, you may find a rotation for a specific team here in this ongoing collection sheet: Lisa-Centered Team Rotations.

¹ Only for the first rotation.

---

"Quickbloom" Lisa

Colloquially, “Quickbloom” Lisa is an archetype comparable to Aggravate Lisa yet intentionally includes Hydro. A Hydro unit with Slow Hydro Application replaces the Anemo/Flex unit in a generic Aggravate team to adopt extra Hyperbloom reactions while still maintaining a Quicken aura. As a result of the Hyperblooms and available Hydro units, Quickbloom Lisa can be more single-target focused. 

As with Aggravate, Lisa performs well in a Quickbloom archetype because of similar reasoning in the previous section. Likewise, Lisa prefers to equip 4-piece TF here, she still plays as if in an Aggravate team, and EM garners more value as a main stat for a Sands or as a substat.

• A variety of Dendro options can slot in Lisa's teams, though one with a High Dendro Application is preferred to maintain the Quicken aura. 
• Many Electro characters can fit for Energy, damage, or utility, but none have as much synergy with Lisa as does Fischl. As well as their innate synergy previously discussed, Fischl is consistent in not triggering Dendro cores, thus leaving more ownership to Lisa should it be wanted. 
• Many Hydro characters are possible in this team, though those with Slow Hydro Application are preferred to maintain the Quicken aura. Those with Higher Hydro Application are still viable but compromise the team's integrity.

Akin to Lisa's Aggravate teams, a key objective is routinely maintaining uptime on various buffs and off-field damage. These include sustaining a Quicken aura by reapplying Dendro and recasting off-field Electro and Hydro damage sources.

Because the team omits an Anemo unit and retains a Dendro unit, Lisa's rotations in a Quickbloom team are less concrete. The following beginning action order can nearly all of Lisa's rotations:

• The Hydro character casts their abilities—typically because they generally have longer cooldowns. 
• The Dendro and Electro characters cast their abilities.
• Lisa remains on-field for around an 8-second window. She often enters and exits the field by casting her Burst and/or executing a Hold Skill combo, with the intermediary duration consisting of Normal Attacks and Tap Skills.
• Cycle back and continue from the Hydro character onwards.

However, it is not even necessary to begin a rotation with the Hydro character due to the action order not being overly pertinent, as starting with the secondary Electro or Dendro can suffice as well.

Specifically for Abyss Chambers, beginning any of her rotations with a Hold Skill is also a valid option if previous battles did not garner enough Energy.

---

Electro-Charged Lisa
("Taser")

Despite being named an Electro-Charged (EC) team, or colloquially a "Taser" team, Lisa's Electro-Charged teams do not intentionally build around the reaction, and EM has minute value. Instead, the composition hinges on the strength of the various characters available and their talents rather than elemental reactions. Lisa serves as the primary on-field unit, driving and indirectly buffing off-field units to sustain a constant flow of damage. When driving on-field, Lisa prefers to execute combos such as N2C, N2tE, or N3J to maximize off-field coordinated attacks from characters—like Xingqiu, Yelan, or Beidou—and to use her Hold Skill only when doing so would not obstruct the relevant off-field characters' abilities.

Because knowing who has ownership of the Electro-Charged reaction is unpredictable, Lisa does not prefer to equip 4-piece TF in an Electro-Charged team.

• Several off-field Hydro options can slot in Lisa's Electro-Charged teams for damage and utility. While how frequently they apply Hydro is irrelevant, having off-field Hydro Application is necessary for the Anemo unit to take advantage of through Swirls. 
• Many Electro characters can fit for Energy, damage, or utility. Because there is less reliability on reactions, offensive off-field Electro units that relatively apply less Electro than Fischl can be more easily slotted, like Beidou or Yae. 
• An Anemo character is almost necessary for this composition due to their access to 4-piece VV, capable of indirectly buffing Hydro and Electro damage—grouping or general utility are other benefits as well. Select other characters can also slot to function similar to how an Anemo character would. Of them, the most notable is Xilonen with Constellation investment.

In most iterations of Lisa's Electro-Charged teams, no specific rotation is necessarily mandatory due to how little action order matters relative to other teams. So long as casting relevant off-field abilities and reapplying buffs and debuffs onto Electro and Hydro are being done routinely, Electro-Charged teams are straightforward to manage. 

A general action order can be the following:

• The Hydro character casts their abilities—typically because they generally have longer cooldowns.
• The secondary Electro casts their abilities.
• The Anemo, or similar functioning, character casts their various abilities to Electro and Hydro Swirl (or Crystallize) and incur buffs if present.
• Lisa remains on-field for around an 8-second window to drive off-field characters.
• Cycle back and continue from the Hydro character onwards.

However, it is not even necessary to begin a rotation with the Hydro character due to the action order not being overly pertinent, as starting with the secondary Electro can also suffice.

Lisa’s Burst can, more or less, fit anywhere within the rotation so long as it is controllable. Lisa's Hold Skill may have to be executed at the end or beginning of rotations to avoid being intrusive. Specifically for Abyss Chambers, beginning any of her rotations with a Hold Skill is also a valid option if previous battles did not garner enough Energy.

Miscellaneous On-field Lisa Teams

The following subsection will be of team compositions that are either less preferable, less synergistically viable, or uniquely adjacent to the recommended team archetypes in the previous on-field section. While these teams are viable for an on-field Lisa, most are not recommendable options relative to other compositions and will not be as expounded upon.

---

Overloaded Chevreuse On-field Lisa Teams

As a composition, Chevreuse enables the team to fare well by being able to heal and providing various benefits bound by the Overloaded reaction. However, although triggering Overloaded is essential for this team, much of the team's damage comes from raw talent damage and not from reactions, which Lisa does not prefer. Lisa still serves as an acceptable on-field damage dealer in these niche teams, but her value diminishes because she favors playing around reactions.

Possible secondary Electro characters may include Fischl, Yae, Beidou, or Sara.

• A secondary Electro character is wanted mainly to help supply Lisa with Energy but will also contribute to damage with all the buffs present. Because Lisa applies Electro prevalently on-field, having an off-field Electro presence is important.

Possible Pyro characters may include Xiangling, Thoma, Dehya, or Bennett.

• Preferably with off-field Pyro Application, a Pyro character activates Chevreuse's buffs, consistently triggers the Overloaded reaction while Lisa is on-field, and potentially brings damage or buffs.

Reactionless On-field Lisa Teams

While this skeleton and denotation are ambiguous and limiting, they aim to maximize the Electro damage of the team. The lack of reactions for Lisa to actively take advantage of makes her less synergistic but does make its teams simpler to play. Regardless, because of how absent this composition is, it is not recommended for Lisa aside from being niche.

Possible Electro characters may include Fischl, Yae, Beidou, or Sara.

• An Electro character is wanted mainly to help supply Lisa with Energy and for raw damage.

Any Anemo character can slot in because of 4-piece VV's value, though preferable ones include Kazuha or Venti.

• An Anemo, or similar functioning, character is crucial for this composition due to their access to 4-piece VV, grouping, buffs, or other equipment.

As for the remaining slot, another Electro character can be valid, or other characters like Bennett or Zhongli to further buff damage through various means.

Reaction DPS

---

Hyperbloom Lisa

Hyperbloom is the best reaction for Reaction Lisa to cater to due to its reliability and damage output. Lisa can be a prominent trigger for Hyperblooms because her Burst maximally triggers Dendro Cores with its 0.5s tick rate and indirectly buffs teammates with her innate DEF Shred. In ideal cases, Lisa positions herself off-field for those on-field to maximize Dendro Core generation. She can also be on-field momentarily to trigger leftover Dendro Cores through Normal or Charged Attacks or cast a Hold Skill for Energy if needed. Despite not having a permanent off-field presence, her Burst can become an effective trigger if contained. However, her Burst prioritizes enemies foremost, even when Dendro Cores are present, and forces Lisa to build heavily into ER%.

Having teammates with weapons from the Favonius series helps majorly with Lisa’s ER requirements.

Acquiring Lisa's C4 is a prominent boost in effectiveness in her Hyperbloom teams. Without C4, Lisa incentivizes to be on-field more to trigger Dendro Cores with occasional Tap Skills and her Burst's enemy prioritization makes triggering Dendro Cores unreliable, only relying on the impact AoE of her Burst's attacks to trigger Dendro Cores indirectly. However, with Lisa's C4—enabling ticks of her Burst to release multiple attacks—the prioritization transforms into a net benefit, where Dendro Cores will often be directly triggered, and enemies can take extra damage from C4's Pseudo-Quadratic behavior.

• Dendro characters with consistent Dendro Application are necessary to generate Dendro Cores. They can apply from on-field or off-field, though an on-field Dendro Driver is preferable. One will also typically equip 4-piece Deepwood Memories to boost Lisa's Hyperbloom damage.
• Hydro characters with consistent and frequent Hydro Application are necessary to generate Dendro Cores. They can apply from on-field or off-field, though an off-field Hydro Applier is preferable. The various choices can also contribute to damage or buffs.
• The purpose of the remaining flex character generalizes to either supplement the Hydro or Dendro Application, provide independent damage, or bring utility. Aside from select Electro characters, an Electro character should not be paired as they may steal Hyperbloom ownership from Lisa.

For general rotation crafting, Reaction Lisa's Hyperbloom teams are lenient in that the action order is not strict. Only upholding a sustained output of Dendro and Hydro application simultaneously and being able to recast Lisa's Burst routinely is all that is necessary. Rotations can flexibly begin by setting up the required elements, Dendro and Hydro, or by prematurely casting Lisa's Burst for continued uptime. Afterward, someone like Nahida, Baizhu, or Kokomi should take the field as a Driver to maximize Dendro Core production. Variations also exist where Lisa stays on-field, often ameliorating her ER requirements in lieu of less Dendro Core generation. Additionally, if Lisa’s ER% is not enough, executing Lisa’s Hold Skill during the downtime between her Bursts is recommended, as there is time to do so.

Weaving in Normal Attacks between consecutive actions when playing along Xingqiu, Yelan, Beidou, or other coordinated off-field damage dealers is advised for increased damage and Dendro Core generation.

Given the similarities between various teams, the following beginning action order can cover multiple of Lisa's rotations where she stays off-field:

• The Hydro, Dendro, and other select characters prepare their abilities for eventual damage and Dendro Core generation.
• Lisa casts her Burst, aiming to be the prime Hyperbloom trigger when off-field. She may also cast her Hold Skill before her Burst for Energy.
• A dedicated Hydro or Dendro Applier takes the field to drive off-field abilities and apply their respective elemental auras. Lisa's Burst should run out of duration by the end, in which case Lisa could be on-field momentarily to trigger some Dendro Cores.
• Cycle back and continue onwards.

Specifically for Abyss Chambers, beginning any of her rotations with a Hold Skill is also a valid option if previous battles did not garner enough Energy.

¹ Only for the first rotation.

Reaction Overloaded Lisa

Despite being less reliable to commit toward than Hyperbloom to Lisa's Reaction builds, the Overloaded reaction allows for a still viable team. Akin to why the Hyperbloom reaction succeeds for Lisa, her Burst's 0.5s tick rate also perfectly conforms to the optimal rate at which the Overloaded reaction can deal damage. Likewise, she preferably positions herself off-field to optimize Pyro Application. Because of her Burst's non-permanent uptime, Lisa may be on-field momentarily to trigger extra Overloaded reactions or cast a Hold Skill for Energy if needed. She similarly builds heavily into ER% and wants to face enemies resistant to the Overloaded reaction's innate knockback. 

Having teammates with weapons from the Favonius series helps majorly with Lisa’s ER requirements.

Although not as potent an increase as in Lisa's Hyperbloom teams, her C4 is still a noticeable and recommended boost in multi-target consistency. However, unlike in her Hyperbloom teams, Lisa's C4 contributes nothing to her Reaction Overloaded teams when against single-target.

• There are a myriad of Pyro or Pyro-adjacent characters who help apply Pyro, enhance damage, or provide raw power. Certain Dendro characters, enabling the Burning reaction for another "Pyro" source, can slot in too. Typically, two teammates should assist in sustaining Pyro Application.
• An Anemo character often occupies the remaining slot, significantly increasing the team's damage with 4-piece VV's RES Shred to Pyro since a near total amount of the team's damage is Pyro damage. Otherwise, select characters with similar debuffs or utility are also optionable—like Xilonen.

Like Reaction Lisa's Hyperbloom teams, her Overloaded teams' rotations are not overly strict. With only one element—Pyro—to upkeep the application on, it typically is as simple as maintaining a Pyro aura when Lisa's Burst is off-field for Overloaded reactions to occur. There may be times when enemies will be outside Lisa’s Burst; in those scenarios, Lisa can be on-field occasionally for further Overloaded triggers. Additionally, if Lisa’s ER% is not enough, executing Lisa’s Hold Skill during the downtime between her Bursts is recommended, as there is time to do so.

Despite simple to-perform rotations, teammate selection in Lisa's Overloaded compositions can be rigid in that there are not many other alternatives for Xiangling or Bennett due to how valuable their Pyro Applications and synergy with each other are.

Because of the low maintenance rotation-wise, the following beginning action order can cover Lisa's rotations where she stays off-field:

• A Pyro-related character or two prepare with some relevant abilities, applying an initial Pyro aura or starting buffs. 
• Lisa casts her Burst, aiming to be the prime Overloaded trigger when off-field. She may also cast her Hold Skill before her Burst for Energy.
• A dedicated Pyro Applier takes the field to drive off-field abilities and apply their respective elemental auras. Lisa's Burst should run out of duration by the end, in which case Lisa could be on-field momentarily to inflict more Overloaded reactions.
• Cycle back and continue onwards.

Specifically for Abyss Chambers, beginning any of her rotations with a Hold Skill is also a valid option if previous battles did not garner enough Energy.

Off-field DPS / Support

Unlike the previous sections, building a team directly from Lisa as if she were an off-field damage dealer or as a supportive unit will require a different approach. Instead of building composition skeletons derived from Lisa, the following teams will showcase where she can effectively compete as a dedicated Off-field DPS or Support. Lisa can be a choice for off-field Electro characters in other teams exempt from this section, but the teams covered here have sufficient reasoning for her as an option.

In contrast to other notable Electro Off-field DPS options, like Fischl, Yae, or Beidou, and especially within Quicken teams, Lisa’s personal damage contribution is genuinely competitive because of how much Dendro innately plays to her strengths—all the while providing buffs in the form of her A4 Passive. Unlike the others, Lisa's off-field damage is area-restricted and requires effective planning, but she is unique in that she also provides buffs through her A4 Passive, Catalysts like Hakushin Ring, and equipment like 4-piece Scroll (Scroll). As an Off-field DPS, Lisa is often in tandem with the Dendro element. As an Off-field DPS, Lisa is often in tandem with the Dendro element.

However, as a pure supportive unit—from enabling mechanics or buffing relevant teammates—Lisa benefits teams that take advantage of her dominant A4 Passive's DEF Shred; Catalysts like TTDS, Hakushin Ring, or Prototype Amber; equipment like 4Scroll; or her rapid Electro Application from off-field. Whereas Lisa's Hold Skill as an Off-field DPS will contribute to damage, it will purely be used for Energy as a supportive unit or sometimes omitted entirely. Relevant use cases for this archetype are often to fully commit towards an on-field damage dealer, buff fellow off-field damage dealers, provide Electro Application, or rarely heal the team with Prototype Amber.

---

Quicken Off-field Lisa Teams

Because of how innately synergistic Dendro is to Lisa, she yields substantial mileage in the Quicken teams of others despite being an Off-field DPS. On top of providing considerable off-field damage, her 15% DEF Shred is more pronounced in a Quicken team since the debuff affects both Spreaded/Aggravated and non-Spreaded/Aggravated damage. However, she prefers having a secondary Electro unit for Energy, though this limitation is not strenuous as many other Electro characters function well in a Quicken team regardless. Since Lisa is typically offensively built within this archetype, executing her Hold Skill should be a given; Lisa does not often build fully supportive. 4Scroll is frequently recommended for Lisa to equip as it buffs the team and increases Lisa’s personal output subtly, provided no one else is equipping it.

While many Quicken variations that include Lisa as an Off-field DPS have her only on-field to cast her Hold Skill and Burst, select on-fielders can allow Lisa to share more field time—often to fill in for their downtime.

• Many Quicken on-fielders exist, and all are still viable to pair with Lisa, yet select ones show a more prominent synergy: Tighnari, Alhaitham, and Raiden.
• A plethora of secondary Dendro or Electro characters can slot in to supply Lisa or the primary on-fielder with Energy, contribute with their damage, or provide a medley of utilities.
• Should the primary on-fielder be of the Dendro element, the remaining slot can be another Dendro character. Should they be of the Electro element, the remaining slot can be an Anemo character. Unique characters, like Zhongli, can also slot in either case.

Aside from the highlighted on-fielders, other possible Quicken on-fielders include Clorinde, Keqing, Cyno, Yae, C6 Dori, Razor, and Sethos—though they hold less synergy with Lisa.

---

Non-Quicken Raiden Lisa Teams

Aside from being able to fulfill the role of an Electro on-fielder in a Quicken team with Lisa off-field, Raiden's synergy with Lisa alone is enough to forge a team directly—even when devoid of Dendro. Raiden compliments Lisa on her capabilities as an on-field battery. In return, Lisa offers a neat boost to Raiden's resolve stacks and a DEF Shred that slightly compounds Raiden’s DEF Ignore at higher Constellations. 

When along with Raiden, utilizing Lisa as either a Support or an Off-field DPS is a viable option. Nevertheless, supportive builds can be more common choices because of how cheap to access they are and how optimal rotations may not have time for Lisa to execute her Hold Skill.
Should Raiden be only adequately invested, say at KQMS, then building Lisa as a Support or an Off-field DPS proves for only marginal differences in output. However, once Raiden gets more investment equipping her signature weapon, Engulfing Lightning, or reaching Constellation levels like her C2 and C3, it is strictly optimal for Lisa to commit entirely to buffing Raiden.

• Colloquially, many people pair Raiden and Sara together for their directly obvious synergy, and with good reason. However, Lisa's buffing potential is actually better than Sara's in this slot if Lisa equips TTDS and Sara is not C6. Sara only becomes the ideal option should she be C6. 
• With Lisa's prevalent buffing, the remaining flex slots may further buff onto Raiden—forming a "Hypercarry" archetype—or assist by contributing respectable damage.

Flex Slots

Bennett	Raiden benefits immensely from Bennett's influential ATK boost, furthering a Hypercarry archetype with how many buffs are stacked. Bennett also supplies healing.
Xilonen	Xilonen is a potential option with her DMG% buffs from equipment, RES Shred, and healing access. Although Lisa greatly appreciates Xilonen’s C2 benefits, Raiden is only slightly appreciative of the CDR and Energy.
Kazuha	Kazuha is another frequent option forming a Hypercarry archetype by providing 4-piece VV, grouping, and a DMG% buff.
Sucrose	Sucrose can fare as another viable Anemo option as a Buffer with Hakushin Ring and 4-piece VV equipped. However, her EM buff is often underutilized.
Furina	Furina is a strong contender, offering off-field Hydro damage and an ever-relevant DMG% buff. However, Furina requires a Healer on the team to activate her buffs routinely. Options may include Xilonen, an Anemo Healer (Jean, Sayu, Xianyun), Bennett, Sigewinne, or rarely having Lisa equip Prototype Amber.
Chevreuse	Chevreuse enables potent buffs (an ATK buff, RES Shred, and a DMG% buff at C6) yet binds the team to only Pyro and Electro characters.  If she is selected, another Pyro character should occupy the remaining slot. An outstanding choice is Xiangling, though others with off-field Pyro can suffice, and even Bennett may too, though to a lesser degree.
Off-field Damage Dealers	Instead of saturating buffs onto Raiden, a wide variety of characters can contribute with their off-field damage, typically from their Bursts, and appreciate Lisa's and Raiden's buffs. Characters may include Xiangling, Xingqiu, or Yelan.
Sara	Although Sara’s original role for Raiden is overshadowed by Lisa when Sara is under C6, she can still manage as an additional flex slot in this team with her somewhat valuable buffs and resolve. However, with Lisa and Sara coexisting with similar functionality, it can be clunky to apply their potential buffs to Raiden and build a team around three Electro units.

---

Physical Eula Lisa Teams

Lisa's off-field capabilities also make her a viable choice in select Physical teams, of which Eula is most notable. When alongside someone like Eula, Lisa provides off-field Electro Application to apply Superconduct—weakening enemies' resistance to Physical damage—and simultaneously buffs Eula. Unique to other off-field Electro characters, Lisa delivers her iconic DEF Shred, can activate Electro Resonance for the team with another Electro character, and brings an ATK% buff from equipping TTDS.

Typically, Lisa is built as a purely supportive character when Physical-oriented characters like Eula are with her. Lisa can function as an Off-field DPS here, but performing as a devoted Buffer to Eula is cheaper and generally more worthwhile. In ideal rotations, Lisa forgoes casting her Hold Skill, which means she needs a sufficient amount of ER% to compensate. However, she can still execute it if Energy is scarce without an impactful drawback.

Note pairing Lisa and Eula together restricts the team's skeleton prominently, mandating another Electro and Cryo character to slot for sufficient Energy. Having Lisa limits Eula's more valuable characters from entering this team structure—like Furina.

• A secondary Electro character is wanted for extra damage and additional Energy, mainly to fuel Lisa, though some may also help with Eula's Energy.
• Similarly, a secondary Cryo character serves possible damage, buffs, and Cryo Energy for Eula.

Aside from Eula, Lisa can support other Physical on-fielders, like Freminet or Razor. However, they hold less synergy with Lisa; some are even anti-synergistic.

---

Neuvillette Lisa Teams

Due to his more unique scaling and selfish personal damage, Neuvillette has less variety of available ways to buff him through teammates. Lisa can rise as an impressive option with her coveted DEF Shred, potential weapon utility, and ability to trigger an additional stack of Neuvillette's A1 passive. Despite Lisa's ease of access, her buffing potential permits her to rival other notable teammates in his teams. It will be typical for Lisa to equip Hakushin Ring for its ER% substat and welcome DMG% buff as well as 4Scroll for another DMG% buff (if available). Otherwise, should Furina also be a teammate with her prominent synergy with Neuvillette, Lisa can equip Prototype Amber as her weapon, helping to build Furina's Fanfare stacks more quickly while alleviating the Energy cost for her Burst.
Neuvillette Lisa teams shine when highly invested, especially on Neuvillette, due to a possible lack of comfort—like Interruption Resistance—from slotting Lisa.

When in Neuvillette's teams, Lisa should completely commit to being able to Burst off-cooldown, meaning she should build as much ER% as possible, especially when paired with Furina. This requirement is not as harsh as it can be in other teams due to Neuvillette often preferring long rotations (25–30s). Lisa can proportionally build more offensively if another Electro character is opted for, freeing her Energy needs. Ideally, Lisa should avoid casting her Hold Skill for time, but it can always be an option for Energy as her Burst's uptime is essential.

• Additional teammates may provide auxiliary buffs, off-field damage, or defensive utility.
• An Anemo, or similarly functioning, character is advised extensively for their powerful boost through having RES Shred access.

Flex Slots

Furina	Furina holds significant synergy with Neuvillette. She provides a powerful DMG% buff, has fantastic off-field Hydro damage, produces Hydro particles, and grants Neuvillette the Hydro Resonance buff. Neuvillette can build Furina's Fanfare stacks for its buff without much effort, so a Healer is not mandatory yet can be appreciated. With Furina, Lisa should equip Prototype Amber to speed the rate at which Furina's Fanfare stacks build, prompting an even better damage potential.
Xilonen	Xilonen offers an impactful DMG% buff from equipment, RES Shred, and ample healing to further bolster Furina’s Fanfare mechanic. Inputting Xilonen, however, will force Lisa to not equip 4-piece Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City. Xilonen’s C2 can be of great benefit to Neuvillette Lisa teams; it eases Lisa’s Energy requirements and is a welcome HP% boost to Neuvillette.
Kazuha	Kazuha provides access to 4-piece VV, grouping, and a valuable DMG% buff that is replenishable off-field. Unlike many other Anemo characters, Kazuha's kit is one of the few who directly buff Neuvillette and, tangentially, Lisa or other off-field Electro characters.
Fischl	Should Neuvillette's team select two Electro units, including Lisa, then Fischl is an ideal choice with her off-field Electro damage, low maintenance, and Energy Generation for Lisa and, indirectly, Neuvillette from activating the Electro Resonance.
Other Hydros, Anemos, or Electros	Other secondary Hydro characters grant Neuvillette an HP% buff from the Hydro Resonance and Hydro particles. Select ones may also provide other beneficial buffs or debuffs, like Tartaglia, Yelan, Xingqiu, or Mona. Other secondary Electro characters activate the Electro Resonance for increased Energy and typically provide supplementary off-field damage, like Beidou or Yae. Having an Anemo character is a common choice for Neuvillette's teams due to their access to 4-piece VV. Many also provide other potential buffs and utility too.
Zhongli	Zhongli gives Neuvillette an unmatched Interruption Resistance as a Shielder, allowing for great comfort. Zhongli also has buffing potential from his shield's Universal RES Shred and equipping 4-piece Archaic Petra (or 4-piece Scroll of the Cinder City if Lisa or a teammate is not equipped themselves).
Other Off-field Damage Dealers or Utility	Otherwise, anyone who can fulfill extra buffs, damage, or defensive utility can slot in Neuvillette's team, especially with Lisa. So long as the teammate selection comprises varied elements for Neuvillette's A1 Passive. Examples include (but are not limited to) Kachina, Dehya, Layla, Diona, Baizhu, Kirara, and Xiangling.

TF Bennett Lisa Teams

A niche yet influential team where Lisa's off-field kit performs complimentary is with Bennett, specifically when he is on-field and equipped with 4-piece TF. Lisa is a near-irreplaceable teammate for her rife Electro Application and DEF Shred from off-field, on top of being able to contribute to damage personally from being buffed by Bennett. With a constant Electro aura applied, Bennett can easily trigger the effect of 4-piece TF with Overloaded reactions when within his Elemental Burst and can cast his Elemental Skill in quick succession. As a result, Bennett produces many particles, and the ER% benchmarks for everyone lower significantly, allowing them to build more toward damage. Bennett's damage also compounds with the Vaporize reaction from accompanying Hydro auras should a Hydro character be paired.

However, a caveat of the team is that it is enemy-dependent. Because of the abundance of Overloaded reactions and their knockback potential, fighting bosses or larger enemies are advised to avoid the reaction's displacement.

Lisa often builds as an Off-field DPS in this team due to how aggressive Bennett's Energy Generation and ATK buff allows her to be. She may equip TTDS to buff the secondary Electro, favoring their damage instead of hers.

• Offensive off-field Electro characters pair well with this team structure for how much damage they contribute, and Lisa can amplify them should she equip TTDS. They should take little field time to maximize Bennett's presence.
• The flex character can be specific Hydro units with consistent Hydro Application to maintain constant Vaporize reactions on Bennett’s many Elemental Skills or be someone like Chevreuse with her buffs.

Epilogue

Tempus Fugit!~

“Time Flies,” as Lisa’s Constellation is aptly named, and time surely has flown from when you began reading this guide henceforth! Being here at the end now, maybe you too have gained the knowledge equivalent to Sumeru Akademiya’s most distinguished alumna in the past two centuries.

Let’s hope it was all a worthwhile and beneficial read, and that it might have changed your view on Lisa as a character, especially with how impactful Dendro is to her effectiveness and identity as a playable character.
