Genshin Impact Spiral Abyss Floor 12: Wriothesley and Neuvillette Freeze Teams (7.1)

Two Wriothesley-led first-half lineups plus a Neuvillette second half that bank all nine stars on Floor 12.

Two Wriothesley-led first-half lineups plus a Neuvillette second half that bank all nine stars on Floor 12.

In Version 7.1, a heavily invested Wriothesley team clears the first half of Spiral Abyss Floor 12 quickly, while a powerful carry handles the other side. With the right supports, Wriothesley can lead either a Cryo-focused Freeze lineup or a Stellar-Conduct team, and both finish every chamber with time to spare. Neuvillette takes the second half in a hypercarry setup combining Freeze and Vaporize. Together, the teams earn all 9/9 stars.

Quick answer: Run a Wriothesley Freeze first half and a Neuvillette second half, then clear each of the three chambers fast enough to keep the timer above 420 seconds remaining for a 9/9 result.


First-half Wriothesley Freeze team

At Level 100, Wriothesley uses a fully built crit setup, supported by two Hydro applicators and a specialist who shreds Cryo resistance. Furina supplies team buffs and healing; Escoffier deals Cryo from off-field and lowers resistance; Vodyanitsa adds another layer of Hydro to hold enemies in Freeze. All four characters are at Constellation 6.

CharacterWeaponArtifacts (4pc)Crit Rate / DMG
Furina (Lv. 90)R5 Favonius SwordTenacity of the Millelith95.0% / 98.9%
Escoffier (Lv. 90)R1 Symphonist of ScentsScroll of the Hero of Cinder City85.6% / 140.2%
Vodyanitsa (Lv. 90)R3 Hymn of the MaestromSong of Days Past33.8% / 56.2%
Wriothesley (Lv. 100)R5 Cashflow SupervisionMarechaussee Hunter64.0% / 266.4%

Furina’s HP fluctuations activate Wriothesley’s Marechaussee Hunter set, helping him reach such high CRIT DMG. Furina also has 269.4% Energy Recharge, allowing her to have her Burst ready when each rotation begins. Cashflow Supervision, his signature weapon, strengthens his Normal Attacks, which deal most of his damage.

Freeze rotation order

Start by activating Furina’s Elemental Skill (Salon Solitaire) and then her Elemental Burst (Let the People Rejoice); this begins the HP changes and Fanfare buff.
Have Escoffier use her Elemental Burst before her Elemental Skill, applying Cryo off-field and reducing enemy resistance.
Trigger Vodyanitsa’s Elemental Skill and Burst to keep Hydro on targets and stack extra buffs.
Activate Wriothesley’s Elemental Skill to enter his stance. Follow with repeated enhanced Normal and Charged Attacks to keep enemies Frozen and gain Marechaussee Hunter stacks, then finish with his Elemental Burst.

Wriothesley needs to stay above 60% HP for his enhanced attacks to keep firing, so a competent healer in the lineup is what keeps his Skill uptime consistent at C0.


Stellar-Conduct alternative with Alyosha

In Version 7.1, Stellar-Conduct is Wriothesley’s main intended archetype. While he is within a Polestar Field, his N3, N5, and special Charged Attack deal Stellar-Conduct damage. For this first-half team, Yae Miko supplies off-field Electro, Cryo Traveler creates the Polestar Field, Alyosha provides Stellar-Conduct support, and Wriothesley takes the field.

For this build, Wriothesley trades Marechaussee Hunter for the Stellar-Conduct-specific Disenchantment in Deep Shadow set alongside his Cashflow Supervision. The 4-piece raises Superconduct reaction damage by 80% and Stellar-Conduct reaction damage by 40%, and adds 16% CRIT Rate against enemies afflicted by either reaction. Aim for roughly 2,000 ATK, 70–80% CRIT Rate, 200%+ CRIT DMG, and around 105% Energy Recharge.

Alyosha is a 4-star Electro Polearm support whose Elemental Burst, Hunter’s Advance, supplies the off-field Electro application, ATK buffing, and healing the reaction needs. Engulfing Lightning is his best-in-slot for the Energy Recharge and ATK conversion, with Frostbreath a viable alternative that grants up to 40% ATK and party energy after a Cryo or Hydro reaction at R5. His artifact choice is Noblesse Oblige for team-wide ATK, or Heart of the Furnace when no other party member is running it. Build him toward 180–230% Energy Recharge and 2,000–3,000 ATK so his Burst is up every rotation.


Second-half Neuvillette team

For the second half, Level 100 Neuvillette takes the field alongside Citlali, who supplies Cryo, Mavuika, who deals Pyro damage off-field, and Sigewinne, who heals and adds Hydro. This combination allows his charged attacks to trigger both Freeze and Vaporize, accounting for a substantial share of the damage. Each character is at Constellation 6.

CharacterWeaponArtifacts (4pc)Crit Rate / DMG
Sigewinne (Lv. 90)R5 Sacrificial BowSong of Days Past17.0% / 69.4%
Citlali (Lv. 90)R2 Starcaller’s WatchScroll of the Hero of Cinder City57.5% / 63.2%
Mavuika (Lv. 100)R2 A Thousand Blazing SunsGolden Troupe88.0% / 154.5%
Neuvillette (Lv. 100)R1 Tome of the Eternal FlowMarechaussee Hunter59.8% / 272.2%

Neuvillette has 48,150 HP and a 46.6% Hydro damage bonus, directly supporting the scaling of his charged attacks. Citlali’s Elemental Mastery is 1,141, strengthening reactions, while Mavuika has a 46.6% Pyro bonus for her coordinated off-field strikes.

Neuvillette rotation order

Begin by using Sigewinne’s Elemental Skill (Bouncing Hydrobubble), followed by her Burst, to provide healing and off-field Hydro.
Use Citlali’s Elemental Skill followed by her Elemental Burst to apply Cryo and activate the support buffs from Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City.
Activate Mavuika’s Elemental Burst, then her Skill, to enable her field buffs and coordinated Pyro hits from off-field.
Activate Neuvillette’s Elemental Skill and collect the Sourcewater Droplets. Then fire his enhanced Equitable Judgment charged attacks, use his Burst, and finish with the charged beams that follow.

Damage output comparison

For a full rotation, both teams were tested on a stationary Level 100 Ruin Guard using a live damage meter. Wriothesley’s lineup functions as a true hypercarry: he deals 84% of the total damage, compared with 8% from Escoffier, 5% from Furina, and 2% from Vodyanitsa. Damage is more distributed on Neuvillette’s team; Mavuika’s Pyro produces its highest single hit of 806,074, despite the team’s lower overall DPS.

Floor 12 chamber enemies and clear times

Wriothesley takes the first half of every chamber, with Neuvillette assigned to the second. Their clear times earn the maximum time-based stars on both sides. Before you enter each chamber, choose a Benediction card.

ChamberFirst half (Wriothesley)Second half (Neuvillette)
Chamber 1Chimeric Burrowbeast — 16s10 foes incl. Fireblade Shock Troopers — 34s
Chamber 2Immortal Construct — 19sWhisperer of Nightmares — 31s
Chamber 3Domovoy Sculptor — 14sLightkeeper — 18s

Wriothesley’s side focuses on single enemies: Freeze pins the Battle-Hardened Chimeric Burrowbeast in Chamber 1, letting him defeat it in under 16 seconds. He uses the same approach against the Immortal Construct and Domovoy Sculptor, controlling them with consistent Cryo as he cycles through enhanced attacks. Neuvillette’s side is suited to groups, including Chamber 1’s opening wave of ten enemies and the Battle-Hardened Lightkeeper in Chamber 3, which goes down 18 seconds after his charged attacks connect.

The enemies in Floor 12’s chambers change with each rotation, so your opponents may not match this run. The current period can also feature the Perpetual Mechanical Array, Secret Source Matrix, and Battle-Hardened Pipilpan Idol.

How to confirm the full 9-star clear

When the “Challenge Ended” screen confirms that you have reached the Spiral Abyss bottom, the run is complete. Check the floor summary for Floor 12 at 9/9, with Floors 9, 10, and 11 also showing 9/9.

Each chamber awards a star for finishing with more than 180, 300, or 420 seconds remaining on the clock. Meet all three time marks in every chamber to claim nine stars on Floor 12 and receive the full-clear rewards: 60,000 Mora and 200 Primogems.
