Haniel Best Build, Arc & Teams | Neverness to Everness

Haniel is an A-Rank Psyche character in Neverness to Everness. She focuses on team-wide ATK buffs, short field time, and adaptable support value. Instead of being the main damage dealer, her strength lies in boosting the team’s overall damage while adding extra Psyche damage through her abilities. Her skills make her one of the easiest support characters to include in different team setups. Haniel works especially well in teams that can trigger Nova or use Psyche-based synergy, since her buffs help improve the entire rotation’s effectiveness. She does not need much time on the field to be useful, making her very efficient for teams centered around stronger DPS characters. For this reason, Haniel is most effective as a versatile support and buffer who strengthens the team before switching out. She is especially helpful for players looking for a simple but powerful support character that can improve early-game, free-to-play, and endgame team combinations.

Haniel Character Overview

Haniel is an A-Rank Psyche support in Neverness to Everness who focuses on team-wide ATK buffs, quick-swap rotations, and off-field utility through Hootie. This Haniel build guide covers her best Arc, best modules, stat priority, skill priority, awakenings, and strongest team comps.

Her Basic Attack allows her to deal Psyche damage when needed, but that isn’t her main strength. Haniel is more valuable as a support buffer rather than as a damage dealer. Players should use her abilities at the right moment to strengthen the team’s overall rotation instead of keeping her active for too long.

Her Skill is crucial to her support role. It lets Haniel deploy her speaker, Hootie, to deal Psyche damage while activating her buffing effects. This makes her useful in both early-game teams and more advanced setups where quick support uptime is important.

Her Ultimate boosts her team’s value by increasing overall damage potential and supporting stronger burst windows. Since Haniel doesn’t need much field time, she can quickly provide her buffs and then let stronger DPS characters take over.

Her passives and advancements enhance this playstyle further by strengthening her ATK buffs, improving her synergy with Nova reactions, and making her easier to use in different team setups. She works especially well with Chaos characters because they can help trigger Nova, allowing Haniel to add even more value to the team. Several current guides describe Haniel as a flexible Psyche support who can buff ATK, deal extra Psyche damage, and fit into many different teams.

In summary, Haniel is a versatile support and buffer who rewards clean rotations, good team synergy, and smart timing of abilities. Players looking for a straightforward but powerful support character will benefit the most from her, especially in teams that rely on ATK-scaling DPS units, Nova reactions, or quick-swap gameplay

Haniel Skill Priority

TalentPriority
Ultimate★★★★★ (Top)
Passive Skills★★★★☆(High)
Skill★★★★☆(High)
Support Skill★★☆☆☆(Low)
Basic★☆☆☆☆(Very Low)

When upgrading Haniel’s abilities, your highest priority should be her Ultimate, because it strengthens her team support and helps create better burst windows. Haniel is mainly used as a Psyche support and buffer, so the talents that improve her team-wide value matter more than her personal basic damage.

Her Passive Skills should come next since Haniel’s value comes from strengthening the whole rotation, her passives are important for making her synergy with Chaos characters better and overall increasing her supportive ability.

Her Skill is also a high priority. It lets Haniel deploy Hootie, which provides off-field Psyche damage and helps activate her buffing effects. This makes her useful in quick-swap teams because she can set up support value quickly before switching out.

Her Support Skill has low priority. It can still be useful in some team setups, but it is not as important as her Ultimate, Passive Skills, or Skill for her main support role.

Her Basic Attack has very low priority. Haniel is not usually played as an on-field damage dealer, so there is no reason to invest into her Basic Attack . Most of her value comes from buffing the team, deploying Hootie, and supporting stronger DPS characters. 

For most players, Haniel’s talent priority should focus on Ultimate, Passive Skills, and Skill first, while Support Skill and Basic Attack can be upgraded later. This keeps her build focused on what she does best: providing fast, reliable support for the whole team.

Haniel Best Arcs

Her signature Arc, Blow Up the Crowd, is her best option and should realistically be the only Arc you run on her. It is also obtainable for free, which makes building Haniel much easier and more efficient. Since Haniel’s main role is to buff the team, deal extra Psyche damage, and switch out quickly, her signature Arc fits her playstyle perfectly.

Other Arcs can technically work if you do not have her signature yet, especially options that improve support value, ATK, or off-field utility. However, since Blow Up the Crowd is free and directly built around Haniel’s role, there is little reason to invest in anything else. For most players, it should be considered her best-in-slot Arc and the default choice for every Haniel build.

Recommended Arcs

marching

Blow up The Crowd

Increases the active character's ATK by 10% while the wearer is off-field, and increases the active character's ATK by 2% when the wearer deals damage, up to 4 stacks and triggering at most once every 2s. Resets the effect when the wearer becomes the active character. Increases Psyche DMG by 12/14/16/18/20% while the wearer is the active character, and increases Psyche DMG by 2% when dealing Psyche DMG with a Basic Attack, up to 10 stacks. Triggers at most once every 0.3s. Resets the effect when switching characters.

flufff

Fluff of Fearlessness

Increases ATK by 25% for 10s after the wearer casts an Ultimate. Effect does not stack.

Haniel Modules

For Haniel, the best module setup should focus on improving her support uptime, Ultimate access, and team-wide buff value. Since her main strength comes from quickly setting up support effects and then switching out, modules that improve Charge Efficiency, ATK buffs, and off-field value are the most useful.

Her best set is Speedy Hedgehog, and this should be the main option for most Haniel builds. The 2-piece bonus gives Charge Efficiency +12%, helping Haniel use her Ultimate more often. The 4-piece bonus increases all allies’ ATK by 15% for 20 seconds after the wearer casts Ultimate. This fits Haniel perfectly because she already wants to support the team, buff the main DPS, and stay off-field as much as possible.

Her next best choice is Fireflies and the Forest, but mainly if you are using Anima teammates. This set becomes much stronger when the team can consistently deal Anima damage, since its 4-piece effect increases the wearer’s CRIT DMG when nearby enemies take Anima DMG from the team. If your team does not have reliable Anima damage, Speedy Hedgehog is still the better and more consistent option.

Haniel Team Recommendations

For Haniel, the best teams should focus on giving her strong ATK-scaling DPS characters, easy Nova reaction access, and quick rotations where she can buff the team before switching out. Since Haniel is a Psyche support, she works best when the team can take advantage of her buffs while also triggering useful reactions around her.

Her best team is currently looking like Haniel + Daffodill + Hathor + Jiuyuan. This setup gives her strong team utility, solid damage output, and good reaction coverage. Daffodill helps provide Chaos synergy for Nova, Hathor works as a strong damage option that benefits from Haniel’s buffs, and Jiuyuan adds extra utility, grouping, and support value.

That said, Haniel is one of the most flexible support characters in Neverness to Everness. She does not need to be locked into only one team, because her buffs can support many different ATK-scaling DPS units. As long as the team can benefit from her team-wide ATK buffs, Haniel can fit naturally into the rotation.

Haniel Awakenings

AwakeningRatingEffect

A1

★★☆☆☆

Increases Plot Armor's max stacks to 6 and raises Paranormal Cannon's ricochet limit to 6 times.

This is a decent A1 that increases her personal damage, but since you are not building her for personal damage its a small increase.

A2

★★★★★

Increases Hootie's duration by 4s.

A2 is a very good awakening, it increases her atk buff duration which can lead to a substantial damage increase.

A3

★☆☆☆☆

Increases Haniel's Crit Chance by 20% while in Paranormal Ace state.

A3 is a nice personal damage increase, but not a good awakening since she does very little damage.

A4

☆☆☆☆☆

While in Paranormal Ace state, if Haniel triggers Ensemble, her next attack's additional DMG increases by 100%.

A4 is horrible, it might just be one of the worst awakenings in the entire game. It increases her damage a little bit but again, she does very little damage.

A5

★☆☆☆☆

Increases Haniel's Psyche DMG by 30% while in Paranormal Ace state.

A5 is again a personal damage inrease which is not good, but it is better then A4 at least.

A6

★★★★★

Reduces Hootie's CD by 4s.

A6 is a very good Awakening, it increases her buff uptime.

Conclusion

Haniel is one of the most valuable support characters in Neverness to Everness. Her team-wide ATK buffs and quick-swap playstyle make her easy to use while still giving strong value to many different teams. Instead of relying on long field time, she focuses on entering the field, setting up her buffs, and letting stronger DPS characters take advantage of them.
