I can't take it anymore. I'm sick of xiangling. I try to play diluc. My xiangling deals more damage. I try to play yoimiya. My xiangling deals more damage. I try to play Hu tao. My xiangling deals more damage. I want to play Klee. Her best team has xiangling. I want to play raiden, childe. They both want xiangling.
She grabs me by the throat. I fish for her. I cook for her. I give her the catch. She isn't satisfied. I pull engulfing lightning. "I don't need this much er" She tells me. "Give me more field time." She grabs bennett and forces him to throw himself off enemies. "You just need to funnel me more. I can deal more damage with homa."
I can't pull for homa, I don't have enough primogems. She grabs my credit card. It declines. "Guess this is the end." She grabs gouba. She says "Gouba, get them." There is no hint of sadness in his eyes. Nothing but pure, no icd pyro application. What a cruel world
Edit: I've started a world war 3
I appreciate this meme.
I appreciate this meme. @@sharkh3art
LMAO
This copypasta has been accurate until furina came out 😂 Klee's best team doesn't have xiangling in it anymore 🎉🎉🎉
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😅
It's also worth mentioning how valuable Sucrose is in crafting. She will make the material grind way more manageable.
Neuvillet is the most F2P friendly DPS because you don't have to build a team around him.
He is the entire team.
power creep tho - i wonder just how this level of character damage is going to increase through the next few patches
😂
as a neuvillette main,
Yes.
powercreep gaming
Neuvillette is my favourite hydro character in the game. He's a beast.
I feel like you should have mentionned Yao Yao as a budget-friendly dendro character that consolidates good dendro application and very high healing. Her constellations don't even bring much, so she's perfect at C0 !
Yeah yaoyao is awesome. We need more new 4 stars to be as good as she is.
Yes, before Furina Yao-yao was my secondary healer (Kokomi was my primary) even though I had a Baizhu. I have switched to Baizhu or Jean when using Furina because Yao-yao's team heals requires her to be on field longer than I would like, but for non-Furina teams, she's still aces.
what artifact set is the best for her
@@AH_125 You have two main choices : Deepwood memories if you're playing a team that aims to do dendro damage, such as hyperbloom, burgeon and spread.
If you're playing a quicken team, tenacity of the Millelith is going to be your best choice.
She heals enough that you don't need to put her on maiden's.
Weapon-wise, fav is the best, and stats wise, crit chance to proc fav, HP and ER is all you need. You don't need EM here as she won't be the one doing reaction damage.
Hope this helps !
@@MrJedi5150 just play favge and reach 250+ ER
Just a constant reminder to pull any character you want or like, the amount of damage you deal doesn't matter if you're not having fun (unless you're into that and flex it online.) Or you don't like the gameplay, just get any character whether they're meta or not and enjoy the game 😊
The opposite is also true, if you get the characters you want but they end up not synergizing well and making things harder for you then its not worth it.
Aim to strike a balance, meaning get a few characters that are good together and can make a good team while keeping an eye out for your favorites and saving for them.
Word.@@jackjohnson8305
@Tsirkon, I think your advice is kind of correct - if you don't care about ever clearing the Abyss or playing at WT 8, fine play whomever you want. But World Tier 8, level 90 bosses, weekly bosses, and Abyss 11-12, really favors the META. You know who's good in the Abyss, week of November 28? Wriothesley, Neuvillette, Furina, and teams that fit them. I don't have them and I'm stumped on Abyss 12-1 because I don't have the latest META characters.
More like have a balanced approach, especially for f2p or dolphins.
People generally have multiple characters they like, choose the one(s) that can be good with as little effort and primogems as possible.
What is the point of this? The more damage you the more the fun you have. I don't think any psychopath would have have fun doing 2000 damage to a boss with 2 million hp. It has now become trend in community to hate on characters that are strong. This advice applies only to whales. F2p's don't have the luxury to not pull for Kazuha or Nahida. Only whales can get specific buffers like c6 Faruzan, Gorou and Kujou Sara to make every character work
I feel like the pyro archon will have very good offfield pyro applications that she becomes better than xiangling at that role.
Edit:she might not have faster application than Xiangling ,but would have a better uptime.
Very likely, as I would assume that Arlecchino will be a main dps
i think she'll be onfield, dunno why but i can't see her as an off-field, even if all archons till now are more off-field
@@Mr7sunaIt might be both, like Raiden being more sub-dps support and can be a decent main dps.
Hu tao will finally get the Diluc treatment once we go to Natlan, bound to get powercrept by the Archon since its a nation of war so it makes sense she'll be an on-field hypercarry.
@@ANoobInvoidbruh you're delusional if you say raiden is a sub dps.
Zhongli's actually a REALLY good training character because he allows you to observe (most) enemy actions and reactions without fear of death. Double Hydro Zhongli team simply for scoping boss AI.
What a terrible waste of primogems
Or you can just observe it anyways, dying has 0 consequences, also TH-cam exists you know
I prefer Beidou for learning:
1. Parry mechanic tells you exactly when a hurt box occurs and even has a sound and screen shake to let you know if special effects are going all over the place so you can’t see the shield flicker
2. Weak shield (for constellation) and the interruption resistance lets you know what’s a big hit versus what’s a light tap
3. Still has damage reduction to avoid oneshot. If you are really just trying to watch enemy combos to the end without accidentally defeating the enemy, add a healer.
@@studiesinflux1304 Funny you should mention that... I'm watching Wallensteins Ch. on youtube right now, looking at his 1 HP runs, lmao
Lets be honest, late game has so many IR that you hardly ever need a shield or heck even dodge too much.
There are exeception in bosses but the AOE affect are very easy to dodge.
I cant even think Zhongli as a comfort pick when there are so many healers that just almost instantly heal you to full.
bro imagine how insane genshin would be if it wasn't a gacha game.
bro fr
but its all about money
Yeah, that'd be dope
I mean. It's already insane. If it was a pay to play model then it would not make billions.
Wouldnt exist
I appreciate your videos so much! My 16yo son plays this a lot and he got me into it recently. He has tried to “teach me the way” 😂 but alas, I find that your videos are so much easier to understand. I am only AR 12, but I am thoroughly enjoying the game so far and have been following your guidance on what to focus on as a new player. I appreciate you! Thank you as always! 🦈❤
Thank you so much!
And if you or he needs any help or don't know how to explain something you can ask me on stream :)
thats wholesome
I wish my dad was a gamer 😔
@@sirthomasevangelion1258 I’m actually mom, but Dad is a gamer too. Our whole family (6 of us) are gamers. It is the best thing, but also can be most expensive thing ever too lol. Could always start off with some fun board or card games. Then mobile. 💖
If anyone wants a dps go for Nuvilete without thinking. He is the best dps in the game mathematically rn. And his 2nd bIs is craftable. He can solo a side of abyss by himself. I wish I got him but damn I will get him next time
I love the dragon judge man.
As someone saving for Neuvilette, not only is he good, but i am also a biased simp.
@@Random_Hooman Good would be an understatement, he is straight up the best dps
saw some news saying he'll be in the 4.5 banner!!!
Furina's healing ability is overlooked by most people, but its usefulness cannot be overstated in the overworld. Whether you're farming domains or just wandering around, you can usually top out your party's HP in less than 10 seconds without needing to use a burst. It also makes Hu Tao a viable overworld character, since you never need to worry about her HP drain while fighting mobs. For those who have them, I cannot recommend the BluTao core highly enough. Just add a healer and the support of your choice, and you can handle just about anything the game throws at you.
Hu Tao doesn’t really even need a healer if you use her burst at the right times (overworld)
Farina is not a must pull at c0
@@mordakie3805 She isnt a must pull in any cons.
@@islowclick idk if you can get c2 it’s pretty amazing …it definitely helps diversify teams you play
@@mordakie3805 Thats true but you could save up the cons for another powerful unit to get more damage/ diversify to even more teams than to get get c2 furina.
Neuvillette C0 is strong already and next his Rerun i want C1for 100% immune intruption!!
It is worth it.
I use Zhongli with him to inrtupt immunity
@@bugrakaya1868 I pulled his c1 to avoid zhongli (also that extra stack with furina is worth it.)
@@MisoMow if i pull c1 neuvillett i dont know where to use zhongli anymore lol i want him in my comp
@@bugrakaya1868 Fair Enough
Nice video, excellent for beginners but for veteran’s mindset as well. Fully agree but I’d put more emphasis on Neuvillette. He might be an onfield DPS but he’s very strong even alone, including being able to heal himself. A one man army. Just need Raiden and Nahida now, thankfully I was able pick practically everyone on your list, with exception of Venti, which I don’t really need. For those in need of Kuki, she’s on banner now. Sniped one at low pity on Ayato’s banner. Totally worth it.
I enjoy Neuvillette a lot.
Got her on c2, tryna get her C6 or C4 at least and you're very much correct about Mr Dolphin
Shinobu Supremacy!
@@MrJemoederopeenstokjwhat does c4 do? I got her to c4 trying to pull for ayato and loosing to Mona.
@@AbhishekSingh-nq4rh direct text of her c4: "When the Normal, Charged, or Plunging Attacks of the character affected by Shinobu's Grass Ring of Sanctification hit opponents, a Thundergrass Mark will land on the opponent's position and deal AoE Electro DMG based on 9.7% of Shinobu's Max HP.
This effect can occur once every 5s."
This constellation is ESPECIALLY good when using her with alhaitham,who will be normal,charged,and plunge attacking.
me watching this video after i got xingqiu from a pull at adventure rank 10. *surprised*
the way my zhongli and kokomi literally carry me through the entire game when everyone originally said they both sucked😍😍
Yep, this is one of my go-to's as well. Also love Zhongli for basically letting me play anyone who would normally get bounced around. Ganyu and Wanderer come to mind here.
As a low spender (I own one battle pass) I think neuvi is a good f2p character since he’s extremely easy to build, he doesn’t NEED a team and even without c1 he’s still extremely strong. Also one of his best weapons is prototype that provides a small amount of team wide healing. If you own furina neuvi also provides over healing. A neuvi and furina team has been one of my best teams that I’ve used and I’ve been playing for over 2 years.
Even without my qiqi neuvi has been able to sustain my entire teams health with prototype and furinas over healing. I highly recommend him if you want an extremely strong hitting hydro character
I think Baizhu is worth a mention, not only can he drive on field dendro, buff dendro dmg, and heals a ton, in the comfort tier, he gives interuption resistance aswell, denfinitly a comfy character to use
Yeah, I was deeply disappointed he wasn't in the comfort segment.
He's comfy only if you can manage his high burst cost. Which is basically never lol
@@DeVoidAS well it's not that hard, and also he doesn't take field time.
@@oterogalvis It is specifically BECAUSE he doesn't take field time that he doesn't get his burst.
Most times, even in double electro teams + fav user, he still needs >230% ER to get his burst off CD as a solo dendro unit, 250 if you want to be comfortable.
@@DeVoidAS not really, Favonious is only a good option on him if you get high crit rate in your artefacts substats, if you farm for him having good energy recharge in your sub stats you can have HP% in all your main stats and still burst, remember prototype amber refund a good amount of energy at R5. After I got baizu c1 I took away the PA R5 and put the TToD R5 and I still burst every rotation plus giving and ATK boost.
C0 ayato is actually stupid useful, I looove him, mines still C0 as I’m ftp but gosh his hydro application is plenty, for my Ayaka freeze comp. But also great for gazer or vapes. Idk but personally I think he’s soo. Versatile and easy to build
I just got him on a low AR EU account and loving him. Can't wait to get to Inazuma to level him!
I won my 50/50 and he came home. So i will make a video for him specifically.
that's awesome, unfortunately my c0r2 ayato is immediately benched after he reached friendship lv 10 lol
He's THE most versatile character in the game for sure. He basically works in every situation that wants hydro except for on-field pyro DPSs
@@DeVoidAS Nah. That goes Furina. No dps is ever going to be more versatile then a support lol
Very good guide! My only nitpick is that you didn't mention that Furina is best used in teams that are not based on transformative elemental reactions. Essentially, I think she was designed to buff all other teams that want a hydro off-fielder much more than she buffs e.g. hyperbloom.
Meanwhile me, using the starter characters and dying at level 10. 😅
kokomi could also have a support element thru the tenacity set and the thrilling tales of dragon slayers, allowing her to give a 68% attack buff to one character.
I would like to recommend another off-field electro character... Yae Miko. She just does insane amounts of damage on a full EM golden troupe build. Her ascension passive increases the damage of her Skill the more EM she has. And being an off-field character, she easily gets 75% skill damage buff provided by the golden troupe set. She ascends with crit rate, so building a good crit ratio is easy. Just give are a good Widsith weapon, 2 EM main stat artifacts, and a crit main stat artifact, then plug her in any kind of electro charged or aggravate team.
You can even team her with Fischl or Raiden for a deadly dual electro combo. Fischl or Raiden would battery Yae Miko's burst, and Yae would trigger fischl's A4 passive. Then basically add a xingqui and a dendro traveller for a great f2p friendly electrocharged/aggrevate/hyperbloom team. You can put other units as well. Yae is especially very important for characters like Alhaithm or Tighnari for their aggrevate team.
Even though her burst does lots of damage, you would honestly hardly ever need it. Her skill itself does so much damage.
You forgot a really important point! It’s the most important, actually.
She’s hot.
@@tartaglia.Of course, that as well xD
Yes but WHEN IS SHE COMING:(
Yeah I'm not spending another primo until either she or Alhaitham or Nahida come back (I will get all 3 of them regardless). Yae seems so god damn strong but, even if she wasn't, she's hot. That's enough for me
@@meda4385 realistically, not anytime soon. Probably near the end of 4.x. I hope I'm wrong cause I also want her
I rarely come across videos as perfect as this. It was an amazing watch. Thank you for making this.
This is a really helpful video. As a newbie with zero previous gaming experiance and playing on mobile I was stuggling to see what charaters I need. Im also pretty bad at aiming cause my reactions are a little slow so its good to see who I should pull for, to build strong teams and get an idea of some artifacts. I do also have to say though that Navia has been my most used character the last couple of months. She deals a heck ton of damage and for a mobile user is incredibly easy to play.
Something to add for Xingqui for newer players: He exploits the 3 hit icd rule with his rainswords coming down 3 at a time meaning he functionally doesn’t have any icd on his burst which is why he’s such a good hydro applicator
Does icd mean incoming damage?
@@Zagreus248 it means internal cooldown. It basically just means how often a character can apply their element and cause a reaction. The rule is 3 hits or 2.5. Xiangling has no ICD on her burst so she applies a shit ton of pyro and Xingqui’s swords always hit 3-5 times so he will always be applying hydro with every hit
Just a little note, Anemo can effect dendro secondhand. If an Anemo does pyro swirl and hits a dendro core, the burgeon trigger will pull off the Anemo unit's EM. I do this all the time as a Sucrose main
So that’s Hydro, Dendro, Pyro and Anemo? Your Anemo char is Sucrose, could you please share what characters you typically use for the rest of the team to get that Anemo + Burgeon setup?
@@silvercat7392My favorite team comp is a Pokémon team! For me, it’s the most fun. My team is Sucrose, Xiangling, Yao Yao, and Furina. I also dub this team “Shock and Awe”, because it’s explosive and chaotic.
My Sucrose, Xiangling, and Yao Yao are all C6. Furina is C0, but she is OP even at C0. I have an amazing set of crimson witch on Xiangling to boost burgeon, and my Yao Yao is built with a 60/40 split on a ATK build versus a Healing build. Yao Yao is using emblem to maximize the utility of her burst DMG. Yao Yao has become one of my favorite players in the game, when built correctly.
My rotation starts with Sucrose skill to boost team EM. Then I apply hydro with Furina skill. Next, I apply dendro with Yao Yao skill for bloom/burgeon, but you could also go with Xiangling first to apply Vaporize. Either way, it’s a win-win, but I usually go with Yao Yao skill, then Xiangling Skill. Finally, we end back on sucrose to continuous swirl everything together. Her pyro swirl can trigger all of the bloom cores simultaneously. The resulting explosion typically deletes any enemies instantaneously.
If you need to do a second round, I will start again with sucrose skill to boost EM, Furina burst to boost dmg, Xiangling burst/skill to apply pyro, Sucrose burst, and then Yao Yao’s burst last since she needs to stay on field.
The second round is overkill and rarely necessary in any content outside of the abyss. It’s just too powerful. The skill run will trivialize most of the game. I just release all my Pokémon and stand back and watch as they decimate my enemies. Sucrose is just waving her arms around like a madman music conductor, causing massive explosions. It’s really quite satisfying. This team comp works against all enemy types too. DMG rated E for Everybody lol
@@silvercat7392 My current favorite team is Sucrose, Xiangling, Yaoyyao, and Furina; a Pokemon, burgeon, vaporize team. I start with Sucrose skill to boost EM, then Furina skill to apply hydro. Next is Yaoyyao skill to create dendro cores off the hydro, and then Xiangling skill for pyro application. Finally, after dropping Xiangling skill, quickly switch back to Sucrose to swirl the pyro. Honestly, this first round is usually strong enough to clear most content. In harder content, you can repeat the rotation using everyone's burst and/or skill. My Yaoyyao has the perfect blend of healing and attack. I use her with emblem and the catch (or Engulfing Lightning when I'm not using Raiden), 36/120 crit, 38k HP, 260% ER. Her burst does around 5k to 9k per radish, per rabbit (which quickly adds up to alot of damage while healing the whole team and maximizing the DMG bonus from Furina. If I have to be out on the floor to utilize her burst, I focused on making her burst as useful as possible. Sucrose, Xiangling, and Yaoyyao are all C6. Furina C0. All of them have at least 2 crowns. It's my favorite team and it's super f2P friendly (with enough time).
Shark, I'd like to remind you that while you did mention Ganyu, she also has great flexibility in that she can do freeze or melt, and her synergy with Venti is off the charts with her elemental burst, which has 100% uptime as well as working even when she's off field (I agree that she's still another on-field carry usually and your other points are spot on, just that I feel you missed mentioning this detail), but her playstyle isn't the easiest on mobile and controller can be weird too depending on the person and settings.
BTW neuvillette doesn't need a teem. He is the team! By that I mean you don't really need any support characters to make him work but still they will benefit him especially furina bec neuvillette hp manipulation can get the full furina buff at the last CA but you can get it earlier with c2 furina
Yeah basically lol
i play him lvl 90 with 3 lvl 20 that are different elemnets lol.
I got Bennett, Xiangling, Xingqiu before AR35, feeling pretty lucky as a new player
Wow nice!
Same
Had all 3 of them before AR20.
Really great and versatile characters. Fits in nearly any team and are real good even in C0.
ATM I use them in different combinations with Xianyun, Gaming and Fischl.
i rolled raiden, bennet, sara, chervuse at the same time and its hard to get them level up since i am not yet in inazuma or fontain LoL(except bennet yeah)
got xiangling and xingqiu, still looking for bennett but yes! they are the game's best supports. i love using them!!
IMO i would recommend fischl more instead of kuki! Its probably because im biased since i love fischl but also i feel like fischl works great in basically every electro reaction team (due to her high personal dmg) whereas kuki really only shines in hyperbloom so shes abit more restrictive
Love your videos man.
Started at the end of 3.4 (just in time to miss the lantern rite event) and followed your guide for account building.
I agree with your takes, and I would also reconmend Neuvillette for people first onfield dps, great set, f2p weapon, range Aoe dmg on the move, self healing and since you are stacking hp its very hard to get 1 shot.
Also he can be run with tons of characters.
I got kuki twice by accident on ayato's and cyno's banner! i didn't know she was so good! your vids are really helpful to new players, thanks shark
This is exactly the advice I would give any new player looking for who to pull. Excellent video.
Thank you for your time doing this suggestions and advices to us. The time was so much appreciated. Keep up the good work.
Ive played since basically right before liyue. You can not go wrong with zhongli or kokomi on any team. Best shield and best healer. Put any support, any dps with them.
Super appreciate the updates you continue to roll out in this category. Keep making amazing context please!
im going through your videos as im starting from a new account and the character descriptions before the explanations in this guide is making me laugh so hard every time
I watched the whole thing,thanks for the awesome info! I'm glad I've got a good account filled with most of the characters you mentioned:)
Awesome!
The best part about Kuki (who's already a powerhouse at C0) is that her C2 extends her skill duration by 2 seconds, meaning its duration now matches its cooldown. Constant uptime on the most crucial part of her kit!
It's such a crime that there's no way to guarantee C0 Kuki. I hope all Kuki wanters become Kuki havers ASAP!
Well, she's on the banner right now so it'd be a good time to try. If I had to say which one though, people should go for Ayato. He's hydro, and has both on field and off-field hydro application which is extremely valuable specially for freeze teams.
I'm so glad I got Kuki about half a year ago. She's been part of my Hyperbloom team since ... well since I've built the team. xD
Right now, she's on C1. Could have pulled for her C2 but I wanna save for Raiden (guaranteed to get an on - banner 5 star since I lost the 50 : 50 on Neuvilettes banner) so I can't risk pulling on the current banner. Well, let's hope I get another copy of hers someday.
Me too. I was super lucky. Got her on a banner when I was level 20 I think@@roadrunner9332
Current banner I have C6 Kuki now 🤔😆 all because I wanted the pretty boy Ayato
This video (starting from the last version of it) is what changed the game for me. After that I stopped wasting my primogems and my account was way more efficient. Thank you so much for this work. Thats super helpful!
YES!!! Thank, you Sharkheart! I figured with Furina out now this was coming!
Hot take:
After you manage to get 1 good dps and some supports.
Just save all primogems until Yelan Banner and pull C6 R1 Yelan.
Then you are set for well almost any boss unless they are resistant to hydro.
c6 yelan isnt even top 3 c6s anymore
I know a lot have said not to pull for a 4-star on a banner with 5-star you don't want but I desperately want Kuki to complete my hyperbloom team (I alr have Nahida and XQ). so I just risked it all and I managed to get C1 Kuki. she is such a game changer for hyperbloom and clearing overworld content is now much easier. on top of that I also got C0 Kirara and my Xiangling is now C4 (arguably her best cons). now I'm on pity 40 with a guarantee and I can't wait to finally be a Raiden haver next patch 🤤 (I still have to grind up some primos tho but I still have lots of time)
still what I did is not advised especially if you're saving up primos unless you want Cyno and/or Ayato
Ukw i wanted kuki but didn't risk getting current 5 star coz I'm at 70+ spins , i randomly pulled on standard banner with the free fates , c2 kuki 🙂 I started playing in 4.1
I ended up with cyno
Unfortunate you couldn't get C2. That makes her e skill have 100% uptime. But she'll still serve you well. She did for me for an entire year.
@@Zafar_Askarovsame, i just want a xiangling cons but i got cyno at early pity💀 i dont know what to do with him
this video give off the vibes of an MTG/YGO/TCG guide that tells of underrated budget cards that are good in paper and with the requirements especcially
A video about traps, but not the ones I expected 😉 At least you talked about Venti and Xingqiu
For me i would add:
hutao or yoimiya for pyro dp
ayato or childe or Niuvellete (one is simple to use, one is a bit more technical but rewarding, and the last one is well can solo the abbys if properly built)
Baizhu for dendro healer/shielder
all of these characters need the characters listed in the video, that's why he didn't include
@@draxerk Not all.. Neuvillette doesn't even need teammates... I would argue that he is THE MOST versatile character in the game because you can play him with ANY 3 different element characters and he will be able to clear anything that isnt hydro immune.. A character that can help with interruption resistance would of course be great to have in his teams but its not necessary since you can just dodge backwards on most things..
@@darkmaster4994 truuu
I would say that Childe is technical, but the fastest hydro applier on-field which is why he is still very used for international teams rather than the other 2 hydro dps.
@@darkmaster4994 It actually heavily depends. I have C0 Neuvilette and I literally still don't know which weapon to give him...
for me personally i prefer nuevillette over furina for my team but every team is different(my team healer is shinobu lol)
edit: my three mains are actually beidou, alhaitham(sometimes interchanged with tighnari now), and nuevillette since they surprisingly work very well together(my team is mostly self healing characters lo
I am so glad that I have atleast one of the very best characters from each element. I am still a very new Genshin player who has played the game for less than a year, but your video gives me a very good idea as to which characters should I be prioritising on building now. Thank you so much
Oh dang very new player I got xinqui and had no idea I’m putting him on now
Help not the Disappointment
I would had one last pick, Scaramouche, Not for content clearing but for traversal capabilities, It's god tier for exploration which is basically 85-90% of the game and it makes all the content so MUCH MORE enjoyable, the flight ability alone makes him so valuable. I would have never thought of this, I did a 10 pull just for fun on it's banner for a bet with my wife, and I got him. OMFG this is a transformative experience in term of comfyness to play this game.
Totally AGREEEEE
This is the by far the most accurate list I have seen, every new players should watch this video and get all the characters mentioned except the DPS section.
I recently pulled Sinobu from the perma-banner, buyed fischl from the shop then got Raiden making me forget about the previous two. But your video make me want to try a summon heavy team with Oz and Furina's summons for constant electro-charging ennemies.
Unfortunatelly Shinobu only heals 1 character at a time and I feel like it helps a lot to have a party healer with Furina.
Man I returned to genshin in 4.2 (after 2.8) and furina banner was active with 12 days left I checked the information about her and found that she's the archon I immediately checked my primos and man I had enough to pull for her and I'm very happy 😁
Amazing!
You won't be disappointed. With the right supports, she can make challenging content almost seem too easy.
@@Lennis01 yeah man. I don't have many good characters rn but I'm running her with xiangling Bennet and beidou
@@pulsegamer-pubgmobilelite1567 You can also swap Beidou with an anemo character to make everyone on the team hit harder when swirling hydro and pyro.
From a "i want to 36* the abyss" perspective if i could chose one character it would be Neuvillette. Yes he is just another dps and all that BUT he could very well be the most versatile character in the entire game because i can say with a very high degree of confidence that he can clear at least one side of abyss comfortably with ANY anemo character with VV, ANY interruption resistance (noelle, dehya, layla, zhongli, diona, xingqiu, etc.) and ANY character of a different element for the fourth slot, preferably a sub dps to add a little more damage to the team. He is just THAT broken... Yes there of course is his premium team of kazuha baizhu and furina but the difference is most if not all dps characters need their premium teams to clear abyss... He doesnt even need a TEAM let alone a premium one to do it. He should definitelly be on this must pull list.
id highly recommend baizhu as both a comfort pick and just a overall great healer for dendro and in general! (unless you are using a melee pyro or kazuha and isnt too careful about sucking a ton of burning enemies in).
healing the entire team to full with his skill and if you need even more healing just pop his ult! aswell as giving the character thats on field with the ult mostly crowd control immunity and immortality :P and he even heals the team if you pick up any materials and works perfectly fine with a free craftable weapon and just health % artifacts with energy recharge being the only substat to care for
ive been playing genshin for like 3-4 months now (on and off) and I've actually build a decent line up without watching build recommendation only starting watching them today. My team is Sucrose, XingQui, Shinobu, and Amber for that pyro and sometimes change her for Rosaria. The fact that I got them on different banners and on the first 10 pull is mind boggling. Next banner has Bennet hoping I get him so that I have a decent main dps.
Awesome video as usual, I will say I don't think Raiden belongs in this list anymore, she's still strong at either on-field and hyperbloom role, but they are too different of a build to call her flexible, and as you have mentioned, Kuki consolidates healing and hyperbloom trigger into one unit which lessens Raiden's value even more.
Nope, she still belongs on this list. Raiden does not heal, but she gives energy to the entire team with her burst (in addition to the high damage). And her skill increases the burst damage of everyone on the team.
I can't tell if you trolling or just don't play the game but Raiden definitely deserved to be on the list, perhaps even more than kuki..
Raiden is one of the only characters that can fit into all 3 playstyles in the game such as hypercarry, sub dps and support.. she's also super f2p friendly cuz emblem is already on strongbox, and the catch is her best and slot 4 star weapon for emblem raiden.. she's also one of the best (if not) the best character as a battery that provides so much energy to your team.. for hyperbloom raiden? Even more simple.. give her as much as EM on artifact sets that you have, give her EM weapon, level up her skill talent a little bit.. and boom you got yourself an amazing electro support with cheap build..
Now for kuki? Can she be built as hypercarry? No (ok technically you can but why, lol cuz there's definitely better options than her).. can she be a good battery? No.. can she perform as good without EM reactions teams? No.. can she perform as good other than hyperbloom? Not really.. and you also not guaranteed to get her cuz she's not appear in starglitter shop and at the same time she's a 4 star limited banner character that doesn't have a pity unlike raiden who's you can guarantee get at 180 pulls..
Another side note is that EM raiden only requires you to have EM while kuki needs EM and some HP for her overall value support..
So this is the conclusions:
Fit for more roles: Raiden
Team versatility: Raiden
Build versatility (like artifacts and weapons): Raiden
More f2p: both but I will still choose Raiden cuz she have more f2p options
Futureproof: Raiden (cuz there's a chance that dendro not become meta for some times)
Battery: Raiden (easily lol)
Hypercarry: Raiden (not even close lol)
Sub dps: Raiden (more damage, skill last longer)
Support: Kuki (gives you healing)
So yeah there you go.. I hope this comment can give you an understanding of why Raiden is better and deserved to be on the list.. don't get me wrong, kuki is amazing but in terms of who you should go for or like who has better overall must pull value? It's clearly Raiden
@@tzuzu5240 And here's another thing to further cement Raiden's value. Before dendro, electro was the 2nd worst element in the game (1st being geo). Until her release, Fischl was carrying the element, and even then people would prefer play her in physical comps instead. Then Raiden came out and she was good out of the box, a full fledged 5*. When Kuki came out? She was a 3*. She literally needed dendro to come out to become redeemable.
@Sergmanny46 This is actually a good point cuz I never thought about that.. kuki needs dendro while electro (before) needs raiden lol
I was gonna save all my Primos for Raiden, but this vid made me do a ten pull for Kuki. Good news, got Kuki! Thankfully, I didn't hit my five star, cause I'm at 60 pity and I didn't want Cyno 😅.
30 pulls deep for Kuki! I’m at 44 pity now
At 60 pity, you are living rather dangerously. Great that you got Kuki, though.
You are rather brave for taking such risk
This is really helpful, started recently and just saving up rn. Thanks
Glad I could help!
your research and detailed info , earned you a new subscribe !! I am a genshin veteran ar59 , but I took a break in may this year and came back just a week ago ,and your video randomly popped out , amazing content , now I know how badly i need to get the new char furina and nahida that escaped me :D
While Furina is awesome (I have her, I love her, I use her both in overworld and abyss), I don't think she should be on this list. In the beginning it was mentioned that these characters on the list will not require other characters to feel powerful and Furina is not a one person unit (unless you get higher constellations). You need a team wide healer with her. Currently, theres only one healer who does team wide healing with E, so if you have a teamwide healer who heals on Q and you miss a burst in one rotation, it not only puts you in a vulnerable state thanks to low hp, but also is a massive dps loss since you can't stack fanfare points without using HP as a resource. She also feels terrible to play when you're doing random overworld things because her pets drain hp for the silliest things. I can't count how many times I had to heal up my team inbetween runs so I don't die mid battle. In coop, I always fear seeing another furina because 4 person domain runs require some sort of synergy and if one of them is constantly draining health of otehr team members against overpowered mobs (as is the case for 4 person teams), you can get one shotted pretty easily. I always bring out my healer if someone else chooses Furina. She is not viable without a team wide healer and essentially takes up two spots in your team, and she will put you at the edge of your seat with the constant hp drain. There is a learning curve to her rotations and little wiggle room for making mistakes there. Her walking on water is literally awesome. Her healing capabilities are actually super good as well. She heals so much, you won't even need a healer if you use her in that mode (which you only should in case of emergency). I wish they added even a tiny bit of particle generation from it but I guess they would not be able to sell her constellations otherwise. So, in my personal opinion and experience, Furina is awesome, but she NEEDS a teamwide healer and is, by no means, a comfortable pick. She will keep you on your toes.
(Again, personal opinion. Don't jump me. Furina simps, I'm one of you. I love her, thats why my f2p ass saved up and pulled for her as my first 5 star. I'm just sharing my experience.)
I am completely agree with you, she's awesome but not a must pull in any way imaginable
W opinion
Yeah, tbh i've tried a few abyss 12 runs with her and a few combos and only baizhu could heal the team enough to keep rotations well timed and safe enough. Any battery and electro/dendro, it's a top tier team, but super expensive team. It's actually my safe team atm, it used to be Raiden national lol.
I have to admit, Kuki at first when she first debuted in Inazuma, she wasn't very impressive due to her kit is all over the places with average stats... Not until Sumeru and Dendro came, she's now one of the main Electro in my team since she can both heal and trigger the bulbs to autohoming at enemies... It's super neat to have her with Alhaitham, Nahida and Xingqiu.
But I missed Furina ... Need to stock up again until her rerun 😢
She was pretty bad when she debuted honestly. They built her to work with Dendro knowing it would release in the next region.
Totally agree i got a lucky c1 Raiden and thaugh no one could top her, but with sumeru my alheitham nahida kuki and yellan/xinqiu team is a must.I cant pas abyss with out using it now
@@sharkh3art tbh, she wasnt that bad as ppl were doomposting her to be when she released. She can use the tenacity set well. Her heal was fine. She had consistent electro that followed you around off-field without needing to reposition unlike fischl's if enemy moved away. Her raw dmg multipliers were meh but she's electro and electro transformative reactions dealt some good dmg namely electro-charge and overload with high EM. Pre-dendro, I built her hybrid with some hp and as much EM on tenacity set and she worked fine. I paired her with my eula and yelan so I can have raiden on the other side of abyss. After dendro, I gave her more EM and to my kokomi hyperbloom team and gave raiden back to eula. I pulled mainly for her on her release and accidentally got itto early at 24th pity. No regrets. Amazing design and skyrocketed to the top with dendro and hyperbloom.
Thanks for the informative video and for the Kuki build tips
The thumbnail characters easily make up my favorite team by far. Benny with Instructor set; his C6 allowing Kuki to use all that EM for Burgeon as well alongside hyperbloom, it's just too good, about 1500-1600 worth of EM with all the buffs and stacks.
to me Eula is my favorite character in geshin she’s a physical character and hits like a truck and then her Nuke affects is just a toping in the cake. she’s so satisfying to play. And looks Amazing while fighting. It really makes me sad that people only want what’s popular or trending and not what actually makes the game fun its always the meta. For me thats the most boring way you can play a game. Its not fun knowing your going to defeat everything with Ease. for my Physical characters are the best to play you have to get close and properly make your attacks and it just makes it way more fun when you are taking a lot of enemies at the same time and then with Eulas nuke Affect it builds up and then blasts everything around me. Its so satisfying. me personally Physical characters are the best. it takes more skill to us Physical characters then Distance characters distance characters the abilitys do everything for you theres no skill in button mashing. Eula Best character in all of genshin She’s a Physical a Cyro her design is Gorgeous she’s really fun to play and looks good while destroying your enemies. ❄️
I'm thinking Baizhu(for comfort tier due to his passive that buffs dendro reactions also his healing and interruption resistance utility shields)
and Yoimiya,Ayato,Wanderer (on field dps-driver with no energy requirements)could make the list
Yeah I love Baizhu as a support unit. He's replaced Barbara as my main healer. I still use Barbara from time to time though.
@@Zodia195 nice ...glad Barbra got a buff thanks to Furina
And Cyno?
That jackal god need to be in the list, because DPS there is many, nodoby need to pick the most popular top 5 DPS, choose that you like for element that you like and done!
5:27 Lmao, Wanderer was named "Disappointment" on his video 😂
@@ANoobInvoidno wonder Ei abandoned him... Poor child
The pyro archon is going to be so broken to compete with Bennet and Xiangling. They would have to buff like crazy, no icd, and snapshot. I look forward to her simply because I hate using these two characters so much. I want alternatives to them because it has been three years I am fed up of them being in. 80% of the best teams. At least with xingqui we have yelan and now furina as alternatives
I can't take it anymore. I'm sick of Xiangling. I try to play Diluc. My Xiangling deals more damage. I try to play Yoimiya. My Xiangling deals more damage. I try to play Cyno. My Xiangling deals more damage. I want to play Klee. Her best team has Xiangling. I want to play Raiden, Childe - they both want Xiangling. She grabs me by the throat. I fish for her. I cook for her. I give her the Catch. She isn't satisfied. I pull Engulfing Lightning. "I don't need this much er" She tells me. "Give me more field time." She grabs Bennett and forces him to throw himself off enemies. "You just need to funnel me more. I can deal more damage with Homa." I can't pull for Homa, I don't have enough primogems. She grabs my credit card. It declines. "Guess this is the end." She grabs Gouba. She says "Gouba, get them." There is no hint of sadness in her eyes. Nothing but pure, no icd pyro application. What a cruel world.
I'm sorry, I can't help it lmao.
Cool list. I saw my favorites on here. I always have a Kokomi, Furina, or Fischl
You could make more videos where you describe the characters and how and why to play with them. Kazuha just made sense for me after this video of yours 😍!!! Thanks alot
Qiqi > My roster of characters.
True, The First 6 star Characters when you reach C6 💪💪
Dang it's already 2024 where you are?
I remember I wanted Ayaka cause I like to freeze energy and she has a high crit rate when paired with another freeze character. And her ability to run over water and freeze water was super useful.
Then Furina came along......
I feel like this video would be a great supplement to some other videos for beginners about teambuilding, especially within each element! For example, I find it difficult to build Dendro teams, even though they have the highest potential damage output, since you have to balance Elemental Mastery alongside Crit, Energy Recharge, and Elemental Damage Bonus stats, not to mention many of these characters have mixed scaling. As a result, I don't run Kuki or Nahida, two of your top picks.
Freeze comps are also very powerful and much easier to build, which makes characters like Rosaria, Chongyun or Mona much more valuable for someone like me!
You could argue that Neuvillette is a flexible pull because he deals damage and heals himself, being basically self sufficient. A rare main DPS who doesn't need supports to function well.
I recently started a challenge account where I only use male characters and my friend only uses female characters. Now, I realize how much people take for granted certain characters - for instance, characters like collei (c2) and nahida are just generally the best off field supports.
Layla is a great shield, ofc there's no other use to her but with Candace and Xingqiu you can make the most interruption resistant team
i was waiting for this video by you.
So torn if i should pull for Raiden or wait for Nahida
i wanna wait for nahida. she is meta, waifu and have the same jp voice as theresa from honkai impact.

Hu Tao should be in the ON FIELD damage dealers, since she has been consistently really strong.
yeh, you can even play her with dragons bane
Nahh. She is overrated. She does good dmg but requires higher investment than cheap hyperbloom team. Her gameplay isn't easy especially for new players. ( And yeah i do have hu tao)
Really appreciate you taking the time to help new player
My first wish got me Fischl. (I’m a new player). This video was really helpful, and great quality too!
venti is an auto win button in floors 9-11
Basically lol
until you get kazuha or sucrose lvled up
Honestly, baizhu is soo underrated. If you want a healer he is objectively the best. His biggest heal is on skill and heals the whole team to full. Even with furina and fighting rift hounds I finish every battle full health.
For Real kokomi is just for Dendro that is no hyperbloom
Thank you i just started and i felt like i need the chars most people use that are nit F2P friendly so i will try to get the recommendation at the end
I luckily have a handful of each element character but wasn't using them too much. So thanks for the tips.
Neuvillette should be in the hydro list insane damage insane heal insane range insane hydro application insane dps.what else he is missing only thing he is on field dps belive me he is one of the most powerful dps in the whole game.he doesn't need any constellation. U can replace c1 by other shielders..
Prototype works too much well for him for f2p and he only need his basic attack talent to be maxed and its totally insane.....
Iam disappointed u didn't add him 😢😢
I think because of the overall theme of flexibility and support capabilities a character can provide for a new player, Neuvillette doesn’t really do anything for a new player besides being the on field main DPS on a team catered to him.
He’s definitely insane with the damage but everyone else has some kind of support capability that makes them universally good for anyone to use them wherever, where as Neuvillette is all about his on field presence unlike someone like Furina with her off field skill or Yelan being a burst support damage dealer.
Definitely deserved to be in the On Field Main DPS section of the video though 👍
@@dessam3939 bro u really think he cnt help newbies.I got him in my second acc also he is dealing 2-3k without even 4 star artifact and lv 40 with lv 40 prototype.
I pulled for neuvillette and after investing him he's just so broken that i was able to clear stages so easily(recently cleared floor 12) and with furina he turn into a monster also he's hydro so he is very flexible and can be use with other off field characters. He made me realise that why getting multiple characters if u can beat the game with 1 character.
@@ajbrawlstars8844 true though I built alhaithm for 6 months but only dealing 8k. Damage per second but my man neuvillette dealing 28 k damage(with support) I only farmed for 2 weeks
@@Ashura32186 Then you are building him wrong. Alhaitham is the king of small numbers that melt everything away. There is a reason why he was the strongest carry before neuvillete.
Fact that you named wanderer, Disappointment😭
Thanks for this update, didn't expect u to actually do it
It took a long time! But there were enough changes to warrant it.
I review this after 3 month, and man, Kazuha is really fun to play with him (not to mention that i like Samurais ) his swirls and plunge so powerfull Curent team i use is Benny, XL, XQ and Kazuha but also i have Hyperbloom Team, Nahida ( i got her at the end of last Banner) , XQ, Kuki and Layla or Kayea. Also i sometimes use team consisting of Furina, Benny, XL and Neuv..
i'd like to add jean for the comfort tier! i main her but i also use her a support/healer simultaneously with every team, and everything works perfectly.
her q can heal all your party members with just one click WHILE doing big dmg !! and she can heal with just her normal attacks. she can also do a little bit of cc with her e. on top of this, she's relatively easy to build since her heals scales off of atk. just slap some atk% + anemo + crit stats and you're good to go.
literally the on/off dips+GREAT healer character i love her
Knowing that I'm already working on xingqui, Bennett and sucrose was a relief ❤ and I was already wondering about kuki shonubu and I'm glad I watched this video😍 time to upgrade her right away😂💯
Thank you for the video, I'm back to the game and was not aware of the changes and was questioning if I should try to get a strong DPS or save for Kazuha that was my favorite and a strong support.
Shark I find it so funny that you mentioned Bennett. I actually have him and I pulled outta nowhere a month or so ago.
This was very helpful thank you so much 😊
Love the list, but I would always recommend 2 of the 3 Anemo CC units.
Its always best to have one for each side of the abyss
Thanks so much Shark!!! This is an A tier list!!
Heres my setup:
Barbara (with ocen hued Clam set. This does great healing dmg)
Raiden (sometimes Shinobu for extra heal)
MC (dendro)
Benny
With regards to furina, she's so good against enemies that can be affected by hydro, but you could switch to the healing totem arkhe for enemies that are immune to hydro damage, allowing you to heal your main dps while it's on field. She's basically 2 characters in one. She's in every team comp of mine.
(cries in main dps is hydro catalyst)
Thank you. As someone who is just starting this game this month and getting my GF to play as well. This video is extremely helpful as I am just completely lost in this game with no idea whats good and what makes other characters better or not. Please do more videos for noobs like us.(if you havnt already) I enjoy that you talk slower, helps understand what you are saying.
I got Kuki, just a few days after i watched this video so awesome..that was a few months ago..i was ar 10 when i got her and she immediately became my main hehe..
a week in and got bennet, koki and water nerd, seems Im off to a good start :D also got the double tail cat that makes climbing mountains and exploring a lot of fun ! and deluc, that hits hard, but don't seem to play much along with the others, apart from the water nerd
I planned to have two underrated characters and pull for them for their aesthetic (klee and eula) and have two of the "must pull" characters (nahida and furina). That makes me play the game without pressure of thinking meta. I had fun from my fav characters (underrated) and with a powerful/versitile supports
