Best Free Characters

Xiangling is the best free to play character to level up as she is one of the best Sub-DPS units thanks to her strong Elemental Burst DMG and easy Pyro Application.

Dendro Traveler is a close second choice, as they give plenty of Dendro application and Elemental Burst damage, as well.
