Characters are shown in no particular order.
| Character | Roles and Strengths |
|---|---|
|
Xiangling
|
As a Sub-DPS ・Elemental Burst snapshots all buffs before activation, and the damage tick is frequent and consistent. Because of this, she's currently the best Pyro DPS for AoE. ・Best paired with other Pyro units who can battery her Burst. |
|
Zhongli
|
As a Sub-DPS ・Elemental Burst DMG has high scaling and can be used to chunk and petrify enemies. ・His Geo Pillar has low scaling and can easily be destroyed by boss attacks or field mechanics. As a Support ・Can provide the strongest and most durable shield in the game while also offering free unconditional Elemental RES shred. |
|
Iansan
|
As a Support ・High ATK buffs and healing rivaling that of Bennett, although with the caveat that she required characters who can move a lot to satisfy the conditions of her buffs. ・Buff indicator follows the character and not restricted to position. |
|
Arlecchino
|
As a DPS ・High raw Pyro damage even in non-Vaporize situations or Overloaded teams with Chevreuse. ・Normal Attacks are swift, have a wide AoE, while also having good damage to boot and simple to activate once you learn her rotations, which makes her viable in single target, AoE, and overworld content. ・Extremely high risk gameplay may be off-putting for some early-game players. |
| Character | Roles and Strengths |
|---|---|
|
Hu Tao
|
As a DPS ・Deals large amounts of single-target Pyro DMG with her Elemental Skill and Charged Attacks. ・Elemental Skill infused Normal and Charged Attacks with Pyro and increase damage at the cost of sacrificing some of her HP. ・C1 lets you spam Charged Attacks without consuming Stamina. |
|
Raiden
|
As a DPS ・Burst enables her to be on-field, which also deals obscene amounts of damage within 7 seconds. ・DEF ignore is an extremely powerful buff from her C2, which makes her a top-tier DPS that can obliterate her enemies within seconds. As a Sub-DPS ・Can trigger Hyperbloom cores easily as a Sub DPS with her Elemental Skill. Her Skill can also be used for other reactions such as Superconduct, Electro-Charged, or Overloaded. As a Support ・Increases the team's Elemental Burst DMG and refills their Energy, which lets her teams rotate their skills near-off cooldown. |
|
Shenhe
|
As a Support ・Best buffer for Cryo teams with Elemental Skill, She can also decrease enemies' Physical and Cryo resistance on her Burst. ・Quills are limited unless you have her constellations. |
|
Emilie
|
As a Sub-DPS ・Dedicated Sub-DPS for Burning teams with a Pyro character with great damage and over 100% uptime on her Elemental Skill. ・Allows constant Burning and Pyro application on an enemy as long as her Elemental Skill is up. |
|
Chevreuse
|
As a Support ・Powerful RES Shred debuff, ATK buffs, and healing as the best support for Overloaded team comps at C6. ・Her team comps are inherently niche, and she doesn't necessarily fix the problem of Overloaded knocking enemies away, thus she's only better against bosses than other similar supports. |
| Character | Roles and Strengths |
|---|---|
|
Xiao
|
As a DPS ・Elemental Burst increases overall DPS at the cost of his HP. ・Normal Attacks and Elemental Skill set up high DMG combos. ・Requires supports for offensive and healing to perform optimally. |
|
Rosaria
|
As a Sub-DPS ・Applies off-field Cryo with her Elemental Burst, good for Freeze and decent for Melt teams. ・At C2, the duration of her Burst is increased. As a Support ・Her Burst increases CRIT Rate for all party members by 15% of Rosaria's CRIT Rate. ・Aim to make Rosaria's CRIT Rate 100%. ・At C6, she decreases enemy Physical RES by -20%, a very strong debuffer for Physical DMG mains! |
|
Yun Jin
|
As a Support ・Boosts normal attack damage with Elemental Burst. ・Normal attack damage buff increases when in party with different elements. ・C6 also gives Normal ATK SPD buffs, which is greatly appreciated for Normal Attack-focused team comps. |
|
Yaoyao
|
As a Support ・Applies Dendro to enemies and heals while off-field with her Elemental Skill. ・Elemental Burst has strong party healing but Yaoyao has to be on-field to make it work. |
| Character | Roles and Strengths |
|---|---|
|
Cyno
|
As a DPS ・Decent Electro hypercarry for Dendro reactions such as Aggravate and Hyperbloom. ・Requires his high-energy Elemental Burst to deal damage, and switching out ends it. ・Poor resistance to interruptions, which affects his recommended tempo for his rotations. |
|
Thoma
|
As a Sub-DPS ・Elemental Burst applies Pyro, which can be used as the best trigger currently for Burgeon reactions. ・C2 increases the duration of his Elemental Burst, and C4 solves his energy issues. As a Support ・Decent Pyro shields that refreshes everytime your active character uses their Normal Attacks. ・Becomes a proper offensive support at C6, which boosts Normal, Charged, and Plunged Attack damage when shielded with his Elemental Skill. |
|
Mika
|
As a Support ・Decent Physical DMG or ATK Speed Buffer, but only a few character can reliably exploit his buffs. ・Provides good burst healing for the entire party but slow sustained healing for the active character. |
| Character | Roles and Strengths |
|---|---|
|
Candace
|
As a Support ・Increases Elemental Normal Attack damage. ・Infuses Sword, Claymore, and Polearms with Hydro that enable characters to trigger Hydro reactions on their own, but highly situational. |
|
Kachina
|
As a Sub-DPS ・Okay off-field damage that can also provide multiple uses. ・Can equip Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City, which is a powerful artifact set restricted for Natlan units. |
