25 Characters in Genshin Impact 2023
As explained at mtglion.com, Genshin Impact is known for its diverse cast of characters with great stories. We have taken a look at the characters in the gacha game’s version 3.3 which was released in January of this year and have come up with what we think are the top 25 characters in Genshin Impact in 2023.
- Arataki Itto
As per mtglion.com, Arataki Itto has proven to be more than just a pretty face. While most Geo characters are suited to support roles, Itto manages to be a powerful candidate for your DPS main, with a normal attack that can cut down swathes of enemies with alarming ease.
- Bennett
Armed with a Pyro sword, Bennet is the only member of ‘Benny’s Adventure Team’ after everyone else quits on him, but the Adventurers’ Guild has kept the team around. His healing and damage-boosting abilities have made it popular.
- Cyno
Finally, Lore character Cyno has joined Genshin Impact’s playable roster, and it was well worth the wait. Bucking the trend of Electro characters typically being the weakest vision-holders, Cyno is a powerful DPS fighter who is particularly well-suited to teaming up with his fellow denizens of Sumeru for some explosive Dendro reactions.
- Ganyu
Ganyu’s Cryo abilities turn her into one of Genshin Impact’s strongest DPS characters. Adding Ganyu to your team will help you prevail over small enemies and bosses alike thanks to her unique set of abilities.
- Kamisato Ayaka
While Kamisato Ayaka is a lady of high status in Inazuma, that doesn’t mean she is scared of getting her hands a little dirty in support of your team. As articulated at mtglion.com, the kind Cryo Sword user is excellent in battle thanks to her Cryo abilities.
- Nahida
Nahida is cute, but you shouldn’t let her small stature fool you. This is because, as the living vessel of Lesser Lord Kusanali, God of Sumeru, she is one of the most powerful individuals in Teyvat. Like her fellow Archons, Nahida makes for a solid addition to practically any team.
- Tighnari
As the game’s first Dendro 5-star other than the Traveler, Tighnari certainly makes a strong first impression according to mtglion.com. His kit mirrors Ganyu’s formerly unique one, making him only the second bow wielder in the game to perform an expanded range of charged shots infused with his elemental vision.
- Venti
Venti the Bard is surprisingly powerful. His wind (Anemo) abilities make him a great support-type character who excels at crowd control and debuffing enemies. With the power of Anemo, he can also apply other elements to large groups of enemies.
- Zhongli
As an Archon alongside Venti, it is no surprise that Zhongli has godlike powers. The Geo polearm user has proven extremely tactful against all enemies (despite his horrible money management skills), meaning he will make a great addition to any team.
- Barbara
Barbara is something of an ‘idol’, adored by all the citizens of Mondstadt and possessing enormously strong healing abilities. She took advantage of the city’s liberty and freedom to stay true to herself to go from zero to hero in the hearts of the residents, and now the whole town vibes to her tunes.
- Collei
Despite her classification as “the Dendro Amber”, Collei has easily surpassed her mentor and friend in terms of raw power, even though their kits are mirrors of one another as covered at mtglion.com. As the first Dendro 4-star added to the game, Collei makes a strong showcase for the new element and is surprisingly powerful even at lower levels.
- Diluc
Diluc Ragnvindr is a damage-dealing machine. This rich boy can get out his claymore and rain absolute death down on enemies, with huge base damage which only grows with his abilities – both his Normal Attacks and Pyro abilities do massive damage if you build him well.
- Eula
As a descendant of the infamous Lawrence Clan, Eula is not exactly loved by everybody in Mondstadt. Despite her past, however, her abilities make her a stellar damage dealer. If you have got Mondstadt’s icy Eula on your side, you will want to build her as best as possible to reach her full potential.
- Hu Tao
Hu Tao can often be found working at the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, where she serves as the 77td Director as captured at mtglion.com. While she takes her job seriously, outside of work, she is Liyue’s biggest prankster and always has spirits at her side, some of which she even brings into battle.
- Kaedehara Kazuha
Kaedehara Kazuha is Genshin Impact’s first character from Inazuma and a temporary member of Beidou’s Crew. He is often composed and enjoys spending time outside, however, he is also no stranger to harnessing the power of Anemo in the battle to perform some killer moves.
- Kamisato Ayato
As discussed at mtglion.com, Kamisato Ayato is the head of the Kamisato clan and the older brother of Ayaka. Ayato’s skills as a Hydro swordsman mean he can also make for a top-class support character if you prefer.
- Klee
Klee is a tiny magical girl who uses Pyro spells to burn foes. The mischievous Klee is a member of the Knights of Favonius, but being a nutty child with fire powers has been locked in solitary confinement for the safety of everyone around her.
- Raiden Shogun (Baal)
Genshin’s third playable Archon, Raiden Shogun, is the coldest of the Archons. Despite this, she will be surprisingly willing to join your team and lend a helping hand, which is why she is among the best playable characters in the game.
- Razor
The mysterious boy Razor is rarely seen by Mondstadt’s population. He instead travels around the forest with a pack of wolves, referred to as ‘Wolf Boy’ by some. Thanks to Razor’s hunger for vengeance and his strong Normal Attacks, he is one of the best 4-star characters out there.
- Shenhe
Another event-exclusive character, Cryo Polearm wielder Shenhe bucks the recent trend for powerful 5-star DPS characters, instead shining brightest when placed in a more supporting role as described at mtglion.com.
- Sucrose
Sucrose is an alchemist who travels the world researching ‘the ultimate truth’. She has a weird way of showing it though, causing the population of Mondstadt to cower in fear as her experimentations go wild.
- Tartaglia (Childe)
Occasionally known as Childe, Tartaglia is unpredictably fierce: you will spot him caring for his younger brother one minute and appearing as a weekly boss the next. His unique playstyle enables both close-range and long-range combat, making him a strong character in almost any situation.
- Wanderer
Despite his history as an antagonist to the Traveler and their pals, Wanderer has come a long way since his days as the Fatui Harbinger Scaramouche as revealed at mtglion.com. Wanderer’s sympathetic backstory has earned him a lot of fans, as has his powerful damage potential at higher levels when he joins your team with his Anemo Catalyst.
- Xiao
Xiao looks like a young man, but he is actually thousands of years old. He is a no-nonsense type, keeping his mouth shut and letting his weapons do the talking. His abilities and impressive Plunging Attacks often lend him the upper hand in battle.
- Xingqiu
A meek, calm boy on the surface, Xingqiu has a more outgoing, cheeky side to him. Famous around Liyue Harbour, he is the son of one of the richest merchants in the area. Studious and talented, he was being groomed to become a great asset to his father’s business.
These are the top 25 characters in Genshin Impact in 2023, with more on this topic, and much more, to be found over at mtglion.com.
