Magic Guide is one of the best weapons for Nahida.

Its substat focuses on Elemental Mastery and it has a special passive that can increase DMG against enemies affected by Electro or Hydro. Players can easily make this a good option for Nahida especially if they want to make her a DPS.

Thrilling Tale of Dragon Slayers

The second 3-star weapon for Nahida is the Thrilling Tale of Dragon Slayers although it is more about an off-field support-accenting Nahida.

You may also utilize Thrilling Tale of Dragon Slayers for the Dendro Archon.

In this case, she will be able to buff a stronger unit, preferably using Electro characters such as Cyno, Keqing, or Raiden Shogun.

Make sure to switch their rotations up to account for the catalyst’s cooldown time.
