Top 20 Genshin Impact Characters
If you play Genshin Impact, then you know that your journey in Teyvat is fraught with many dangers as discussed over at runrex.com. Thankfully, your companions will help you along the way, which is why it is important to know which ones are actually viable in the long run. This article will look to help you with that by highlighting the top 20 Genshin Impact characters.
S Tier Characters
These are the very best of the Genshin Impact characters, and they are:
Diluc
As described at guttulus.com, Diluc is a damage-dealing machine. He can get out his claymore and rain death down on enemies, with huge base damage which only grows with his abilities. He is one of the very best the game has to offer.
Venti
As is revealed in discussions on the same over at runrex.com, Venti the bard is surprisingly very powerful. His wind (Anemo) abilities make him a great support-type character in the game, but he is no slouch when it comes to dealing damage.
Qiqi
As the subject matter experts over at guttulus.com point out, Qiqi is an apprentice and herb gatherer at the Bubu Pharmacy. She is a sword-wielder who is also apparently an unlikable zombie, which is why she is top-tier in the game and why she is among the most impressive characters.
Fischl
She is a bow-wielding Electro-powered girl who travels the world with Oz, her night raven. The night raven has Electro abilities as well. And while she is a bit weird, at 4-star rarity, you have a much higher chance of getting her on your team as opposed to the likes of Venti and Diluc.
A Tier Characters
Genshin Impact’s A Tier characters are extremely solid pulls you will be delighted with, and they are:
Barbara
Adored by all of the citizens of Mondstadt, she is something of an ‘idol’. She also possesses 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, hence why she is so popular.
Jean
As covered over at runrex.com, she is tough as nails and is the acting Grand Master of the Knights (‘Dandelion Knight’). Her sword and Anemo abilities can deal with large groups of enemies, and her personality is steadfast to a fault.
Keqing
She is a Liyue-based character who uses an Electro sword. Her skeptical approach to life and policy makes her abrasive but helpful. She runs Liyue while Rex Lapis sits around not doing much all year, which is probably why she feels the humans of Liyue should have more of a say in their future than some random god according to guttulus.com.
Klee
She is a tiny magical girl who uses Pyro spells to burn foes as outlined over at runrex.com. She is quite mischievous and is a member of the Knights of Favonius. Given that she is a nutty child with fire powers, she has been locked in solitary confinement for the safety of everyone around her, which shows how powerful she is.
Xiangling
Xiangling is an extremely accomplished chef who you might have already helped in her quest to cook the perfect spicy food. When she is not doing this, however, she is jabbing bad guys with her Pyro polearm, hence why she is so powerful.
Xiao
Although Xiao looks like a young man, he is actually thousands of years old. He is a no-nonsense type, keeping his mouth shut and letting his weapons do all the talking. Apparently, he struggles to hold back in combat because he is used to fighting uber-powerful dark forces, which is a scary thought.
Mona
She is an astrologer as articulated over at guttulus.com. She is often skint and refuses to profit off of her astrology, which is noble, to say the least. She has several combat abilities including the ability to perform up to five water splash attacks during normal attack.
B Tier Characters
These are average but solid picks, and they are:
Bennett
He fills out the classic character role of a rough-and-tumble kid with all the energy to create his own destiny. Armed with a Pyro sword as discussed over at runrex.com, he is the only member of ‘Benny’s Adventure Team’ after everyone else quit on him, but the Adventurer’s Guild has kept the team around.
Chongyun
He is a professional exorcist, and he is feared by demons because of that according to guttulus.com. His family were all exorcists but he was always more powerful than the rest, and some of his abilities include the ability to perform up to four consecutive strikes in normal attack, etc.
Kaeya
Introduced early on in the story, Kaeya is an eyepatch-wearing anime boy who is fiercely loyal to Acting Grand Master Jean of the Knights of Favonius. He is often found doing Jean’s dirty work but never complains about it, with his confident and charming demeanor always shining through.
Xingqiu
While he is a meek, clam boy on the surface, he also has a more outgoing, cheeky side to him. He is the son of one of the richest merchants in Liyue Harbor and is studious and talented, which is why he is being groomed to become a great asset to his father’s business. His talents lie elsewhere, however, with the fact that he is a keen martial artist and fighter making him an excellent asset in battle.
Razor
He is a mysterious boy, rarely seen by Mondstadt’s population. Instead, he travels around the forest with a pack of wolves and is referred to as ‘Wolf Boy’ by some as revealed over at runrex.com. His pack is his family and seeks revenge only on those who harm his family. He also carries a giant claymore which can be a great asset in battle.
Ningguang
Known as the flying Geo magic lady who owns Liyue’s Jade Chamber, she is loaded and uses this to her advantage, keeping everyone in Liyue on her good side. As per guttulus.com, her air of mystique also means that no one quite knows what she is up to most of the time.
C Tier Characters
While Genshin Impact’s C Tier characters aren’t anything special, they can still hold their own, and some of them include:
Beidou
She is pretty cool, with her giant Electro claymore which can destroy enemies if you level it right, and as the Captain of the Crux – the fleet of sailors in Liyue Harbor, she gets the opportunity to do so often as discussed over at runrex.com.
Noelle
She is a character that you will probably earn from the Beginner Wish bundle. She is a maid with a big sword, dealing Geo damage and dreaming of a star-studded future as a Knight of Favonius. She is a hard worker and will always help with anything.
Lisa
She is a librarian-witch who you will be able to play as for free after she is unlocked in the early game. She loves napping and is apparently able to flirt and charm others into getting what she wants, hence why she is quite popular in the game.
These are some of the best Genshin Impact characters, with more on this topic and these characters, as well as so much more, to be found over at runrex.com and guttulus.com.
