But which characters are the best of the best? And which ones should you give preference to? Here is your guide to the best characters in Genshin Impact. These are the ones that you don’t want to miss!
Which are the Best Characters in Genshin Impact?
Ayaka
Our Cyro princess of the Kamisato clan, here is Ayaka. She is a noble and her power lies in the ability to use her Senho sprint. Able to move easily between opponents, freezing and dealing one of the best Crypto damages in the game. Boy is she good! It is best to pair her with Xingqui for constant Freeze reactions.
Hu Tao
Our very own polearm wielding Funeral Director in Wansheng. Hu Tao has to be on this list of best characters in Genshin Impact. Not only does she deal some of the best Pyro damage in the game but inflicts AoE Pyro damage as well.
Her Elemental Skill and passive are the reason why she can deal such good damage. While her Spirit Soother is the reason why she can inflict that powerful AoE damage. A strong player in the game is an understatement for this character. Definitely one of the best.
Bennett
One of the best four-star support characters in the game. Bennett comes with an unlucky past yet is still a happy-go-lucky traveller. Use his Elemental Burst to heal and give a decent attack buff with Pyro infusion post unlocking Constellation 6.
Best to pair him with Pyro DPS characters like Diluc or Klee. This is because of the 25% attack boost that they get from Elemental Resonance.
Ganyu
One of the best DPS characters in the game, this Cyro archer is one of the best damage dealers in Genshin Impact. Use her greatest strength, the Frostflake Arrows to cause AoE Cyro damage and freeze enemies. It is best to pair her with Shenhe to boost her Cryo damage with burst and make them the best duo on the field.
Raiden
Raiden’s burst makes her the perfect battery for everyone else’s. She is the perfect support for any character. You can even call her the ultimate battery in Genshin Impact. Her passives make her scales with Energy Recharge creating an almost never-ending cycle of burst feeding into burst.
Kazuha
Just like many other Anemo characters, Kazuha is best when built towards Elemental Mastery. This helps him strengthen and facilitate his Elemental Absorption and Swirl. Kazuha is a more fun character to play as his Midare Ranzan plunging attacks are off the hook.
Zhongli
As a Geo Archon, Zhongli is a rock. Get it? Use his fortifying shields as it is one of the best in Genshin Impact. His increased damage totally depends on max HP. While his Stone Steles resonate with other Geo constructs. This causes insane damage and makes him a great paring for any of the following characters:
- Ningguang
- Albedo
- Itto and
- Ushi
These were our picks for the best characters in Genshin Impact. What do you think about them? There are a lot of other characters that are going to be rising up to the top.
