@@rexplay_z I play on phone. Doing 36 star abyss consistently. And my phone is 3 years old. mid level processor. Dimensity 900. Still don't need him. Characters like him and neuvi makes the.game boring.
I will say this as a 1.X player who used to do crazy stuff like single-character 36-star abyss runs ON MOBILE: Zhongli is STILL one of the characters I never regret pulling. It's not about skill level. Zhongli is for those days where you just don't wanna lock in. For days where you just want to farm crystals peacefully. For doing suspicious statue building with Geo Traveler. For reaching that really high-up Pyroculus. He's just great honestly. I do advise you to pull him, because unless you intend to run your game on hard mode 110% of the time, you will genuinely enjoy just having him there when you wanna chill. Have a great day 😊
I am a minmaxer so I don't use Zhongli much anymore. That said, I find it so weird how people act like you start doing zero damage the moment you use him. You don't need peak potential to clear abyss comfortably, or anything close to it. Like... We're in an era where Neuv and Arlecchino can easily solo abyss at high investment. You're not going to struggle to clear if you choose to use Zhongli instead of like Kazuha.
The perception is weird but I usually tell people that He can slot in if you already can comfortably clear abyss. Other than that I would just advise them to get a buffer over him if that isn’t the case
@@dessdev8404 I'm kinda new to the game My team is kaeya, Noelle, Lynette, traveler, I don't have any 5 star weapon except for skyward harp that i got and zhongli actually is my most anticipated character but many people said zhongli has no dmg, dps loss and useless low value so I got discouraged😢 meanwhile many people keep saying pull neuvillete he best character in game he solo abyss (NGL I also want to clear abyss) but also this chasca is queen of exploration and she's bow user so I'm thinking 🤔 that my skyward harp Wil be of use( daym I type 2 much 😅)
Best dps in the game neuvillette. Best supprt kazuha. Chasca is good for exploration but neuvillete is too good to pass if you dont have him. @@Moontonboss
@@starmoral5456 Zhongli increases effective damage output on a c0 Neuvillette. Without a shield, Neuvillette gets hit out of his charge attack quite often which ruins his rotation. The universal shred is also beneficial for Neuvillette. This stagger resistance doesn't just help Neuvillette either.
I'm not sure If spending primos on him nowadays is worth it, but I can say that he is a really good fourth slot, and always having good supports in your account allows you for more versatility with the teams you play. In Wrio melt team for example, you never want an anemo unit, cause the uptime is so bad it's not worth it, usually who fits here is Furina/Xilonen/Zhongli. If you are playing neuvilette's op team, both Furina and Xilonen will be taken. So zhongli will do the work for wrio team. There are some other examples who fits here like Hutao, Alhaitham Quickening, Liney. I think he gains way more value in more dangerous abyss, where you will get hit a lot and using zhong's shield won't be lost dmg. Also in Abyss with geo shields, zhong helps a lot against the centaur.
Genuinely right The better characters you get and the better at the game you get, the more he falls off I used to use him in every single team before But now I never see him unless I’m fighting local legends And now with Xilonen + Bennett I’m not even using him for that
I never cared to have Zhongli. A couple of my friends swear by him being an account changer, but I've been playing for a year now, 36*ing abyss for a few months now no issues. But then I got Lyney. Now I'm pulling for Zhongli lmao
I am AR 50 (recently did the ascension quest) and I do not have any five stars yet,,,,, i got skyward harp from standardd lmao. One month into the game, (doing sumeru quest rn and loving it) and zhongli is my absolute favourite character,,, i am really lucky that he is running at the perfect time for me. I got just enough time to guarantee him :D He will be my first five star character (unless i get lucky on standard lmao) He is very cool and very pretty and I love his voicee :D Have a good dayyy!
On more thing : I noticed Imaginarium Theater reduced the value of survivability units in general. Your characters have a 10kish flat HP buff and the battles are usually hard capped to last no more than 2 minutes, often even less, and the enemies hit less hard than the ones in Abyss. While not always, in many cases you can just get away with not using any healer or shielder at all, and even if you do lose a character, either the rest of your team can finish off the enemy anyway or in worst case, you lose the 30-90 seconds needed to restart. However, he is still an absolute must have for units that are weak to interruption like C0 Neuvilette, Wanderer, Ganyu, Yoimiya, etc.
If I didn't already have Zhongli and Neuvillette (both are C0, but they still do their jobs) I might try for one of them...but I also have all of the 4*s at well over C6, so the whole banner phase is a chance to save primos.
I want his c3 (for extra def) cuz he's the best in coop. When randoms bring arle or scara, I already know they're going to be knocked around. If someone brings c2+ zhongli, everyone loves him. His c2 is just that comfy
tbh I prefer kokomi or pneuma furina as all he provides is interruption which is a non issue for most characters and res shred which is outclassed by anemo units
As a Eula main who prefers to just click and not think, I'm currently saving up for Zhongli as while my Kokomi already allows me to tank damage without much care or thought, it'd be better if she had a shield to aid her lmfao
To put it simply if you like universal defense supports like Kokomi or even Baizhu then you would love to get him, I already got him (skipped Albedo cause I thought Zhongli will be harder to get as archon) but kinda mad both his weapon and C1 are pretty worthless for investment
If you are f2p or an early game player, Zhongli is a must pull. Been playing for four years and I still use Zhongli. Less these days, but still. He should be an account staple for the majority of players.
Im not guaranteed and as someone who plays at 300+ ping all the time and with some skill issues im gonna try pulling for him And not neuvi because HE IS SO BORINGGGGGG
Juice, im considering pulling Zhongli only because of his ability to easily break Geo shields (the Fontaine mecha and Legatus in the recent abyss traumatized me), do you think it’s worth it?
i don't care about the cons i still want him prioritizing him over Neuvilette because I love him and i need a sheild for tighnari and yoimiya and may be xiao can use his sheild
I would say i started in old genshin With my first cast being jhonn lee, coco goat and canadian wind boi Wind boi and goat are on an off from my team but jhon lee has been eternal
I'd like to see a video that compares Citali with Zhongli as they are going to be running right next to each other and fill the same slot/role. I know Citali's shield is weaker but is it like 10, 30, or 60% weaker? Seen some calculations but I couldn't tell whether Zhongli's number included the 50% bonus for being a Geo shield or not.
Depends on the artifact, Citlali biggest shield (Wand Even-ToTM) is around 22% weaker than average ZL. With Citlali shield around 16919, while Zhongli is around 22169 But that's comparing Citlali most maximized shield to just Zhongli without his maximized shield. If we compared to maximized Zhongli shield then, Citlali shield will be around 45% weaker than ZL, coz his shield will be around 31527.
If you want to see the calculations, someone from "Citlali Mains" subreddit made it. This is the title of the post if you want to check urself "[SPOILERS]" Citlali Shield comparison to other shielders - V1 Kit
Zhongli was my first ever 5 star and I even got 2 cons for him with less than 90 pulls when I started. Crazy how my start with genshin was super easy with this grandpa.
Zhongli was my first limited 5 star but he is kinda benched now after I got Xilonen. I still recommend for early players and especially mobile players. And he still has one of the best voicelines.
Pickles out of the jar is an A+ snack, can't lie. As for Geo Daddy he's ... if you gave me him free I'd love having him but I just can't imagine a moment where I'd feel like throwing primos at him was worth it at all.
i did not think it would take such a short amount of time for someone to notice, congrats you're the first lmao TRUE!!! had some before making this video actually
He saved me a lot of headaches. But now that I have a few great support dps teams. I rarely use him on my teams that aren't using navia as my main dps.
I honestly would have quit this game if not for Zhongli making up for my skill issues. He's comfort, he's ease, he's style. I don't use him nearly as much as I used to but he's always there for me in case I need him.
People always talk about tenacity or petra, but I use instructor. Geo constantly triggers reactions, so it works really well. Then he kinda works like a tankier anemo character. Shred+ EM+shield.
Pickles out of the jar. ...alright. Guess they are juicy? I dunno. Biggest pros and cons. "Osmanthus wine..." (I don't own the character, so I don't know the full quote)
I can dodge and don't have any issues but like having him makes life easier when I don't feel like putting in effort. Especially since I plan to get clorinde and the new event weapon is good on her (im too lazy to dodge or switch to kazuha)
For most casual players that play on phone I'd say hes an S++ tier pick But if ur a tryhard or speedrunner ur probably better off getting more cons for your other support of dps units
me personally I play on mobile and in asia servers while living in NA + I'm a hu tao main so john lee is probably the best character that i own. Although the dps loss is super noticable esp on floor 12 but i know that without him id be dying constantly
My only question is whether having Zhongli on the team will benefit Navia. I don't have Bennet, Furina, Kazuha or Xilonen. I have no problem dodging all the time and neither do I have the rush to have more DPS But the 12th floor in the abyss spiral or some time trial challenges scream to me that I must have strong characters once and for all.
Best thing about his constellations is you have them forever! Haha… C2 is definitely huge quality of life, makes shielding with him so much quicker for sure
I was building pity after two Neuvillette 50/50s won. Thinking there's no way I would win a third one so if I got a standard five star I would have a guaranteed mavuika. Lost (won) my 50/50 to zhongli early pity. Idk if to feel sad or happy yet Edit: I play on mobile alot so he might be comfortable on an overworld/daily team
A difficult character to rate in any way, it so entirely depends on your account and skill progression. At the very least he is the safest safe bet for your primo.
I hope I win my 50/50s and arm able to snatch him along with Neuvi (I want to use him on my Lyney team for some more comfort + so I can use Kazuha with Neuvi)
Havent played in months and decided to load up the game randomly and just pull a banner. I got johnli and I'm just tryna figure out how to use him well.
There are a lot of teams that wants ZL shield. If you want to just unga bunga damage without worrying dps loss from dodging, the geo daddy is the boss.
The only thing is the geo shield. I am really terrified if the spiral abyss changes next and we get geo based enemy. Nah man I hate geo based enemies with my heart. For now I can see there's no use of him becoz neuvi is around and mauvika, but if the endgame is a geo based???........nah I am gonna pull him. The bosses aren't even tough and I am lyney main but the GEOOOOOO. Mfking shields. Imma pull him coz I don't wanna see the days of getting smacked down just just beoz I can't break a stupid shield. And I am blaming myself if I am lacking damage.
Remember kids, Neuvillette is for when you dont wanna play the game anymore, zhongli is for when you dont wanna try. Lol so pick your poison unless ya got a Benjamin to waste an get both
I pulled for Lyney. Got his weapon, but he's made from pocket lint and can get one shot. Is zhongli good for him. Now I play him with Bennet zhongdong on Petra and xilonen. Is he a big damage loss . People forget that he has 20 res shred just existing. Xilonen has just 10 more.
Hate dodging? I can't dodge consistently to save my life and I'm not sure if it's just Mihoyo being bad at visualizing attacks or if it's a latency issue.
Taking into account than lanyan (the new 4 star coming in 5.3) is arguably better than him, he isnt worth anymore . We also have citlali. But he is a good character anyways, you can get him if you like him.
maybe a very dumb question, but do Favonius weapons proc on anyone their crits or just the character that is holding the weapon? couldn't really find anything about it so i figured i'd ask :D
Only the person holding the weapon for example if zhongli has favonius and he crits and gets the white particles but if someone without favonius crits they don’t generate white particles
lve been playing since 2.1. I wanted him since I play mostly on mobile. Now I dont want or need him anymore. I have xilo, furina and kazuha. AH QB or Ayato/raiden national,on the other side. C1 neuvi will be the only option for my alt. my main has chasca, mualani,arlechino, navia. all have much better teams that dont need shieldfather since they all have some sort of resistance or avoidance to being staggered.
I was gonna pull him for my Navia team, but with Xilonen at home, there is no reason to pull him anymore. :( , stil a very cool unit tho, maybe on a future rerun will pull him.
Unsure if I want Zhongli, or if I should go for C2 Neuvillette. I love my Neuvillette, but Zhongli has a lot of utility as a flexible team addition for comfort (and possibly some Geo crystalizations). So even though I like using Neuv, maybe Zhongli would be better for me? But I also don't have a built Artifact set for him, so I'd have to dedicate resources into that while Neuv would be ready to go. Hmm.
U can use any hp artifact for zhongli. 2pc 2pc artifact with hp set bonus also works. 4pc tenacity would be useless if you use zhongli with neuvi since he doesn’t need atk buff. With zhongli, you can slot him in lots of team. But with neuvilette c2, you can ignore shielder in his team comp.

4:51 Me who crowned his skill just cause: 😶
(I also Crowned Yelan’s normal attacks, what? No of course i don’t have her C6)
honestly fair my venti NAs r lvl 10
We now live in a day and age where Zhongli's burst animation is slow, let's not even talk about Dliuc's batman movie.
He saved me a lot of headaches. But now that I have a few great support dps teams. I rarely use him on my teams that aren't using navia as my main dps.
So u use him on ur Navia teams? Can u elaborate why? I've been saving up for Navia for months, and I'm interested in getting Zhongli too
@Wooshy_o zhongli's pillar applies crystalize which gives navia a damage boost.
I feel like Citlaly would be best for Lyney mono pyro and probably most of the pyro and hydro main dps
Osmanthus wine taste the same...
I just pulled him because he's cool and I like his story.
Zhongli and Neuvi are the same in the sense that they make everything a non threat, just through different means
If you suck, yes, if you dont, no
I honestly would have quit this game if not for Zhongli making up for my skill issues. He's comfort, he's ease, he's style. I don't use him nearly as much as I used to but he's always there for me in case I need him.
People always talk about tenacity or petra, but I use instructor. Geo constantly triggers reactions, so it works really well. Then he kinda works like a tankier anemo character. Shred+ EM+shield.
That doesn't sound bad, just shame we cant get a 5 star version of the set for better stats.

I can dodge and don't have any issues but like having him makes life easier when I don't feel like putting in effort. Especially since I plan to get clorinde and the new event weapon is good on her (im too lazy to dodge or switch to kazuha)
2:10 finally someone talk about archaic petra usage otherwise everybody goes tenacity 😊
he would make a great pairing with the new sword on any decent sword character because of his shields
For most casual players that play on phone I'd say hes an S++ tier pick
But if ur a tryhard or speedrunner ur probably better off getting more cons for your other support of dps units
Who wants these constellations!?
Me with a c6 Zhongli with staff of homa also triple crowned. 😮😮😮😮
His cons are underrated IMHO.
Random dude with physical Zhongli and does insane damage(ion even have bro but I’ve seen it):
Zhongli is the TOP DOG when it comes to defense. That alone is why he's still in S-Tier for many lists AND one of the top used u its in Spiral Abyss.
Pulling for Citlali cuz as a cryo charcter, we definitely won't see her again
me personally I play on mobile and in asia servers while living in NA + I'm a hu tao main so john lee is probably the best character that i own. Although the dps loss is super noticable esp on floor 12 but i know that without him id be dying constantly
My only question is whether having Zhongli on the team will benefit Navia.
I don't have Bennet, Furina, Kazuha or Xilonen.
I have no problem dodging all the time and neither do I have the rush to have more DPS
But the 12th floor in the abyss spiral or some time trial challenges scream to me that I must have strong characters once and for all.
I also eat pickles out of the jar as a snack sometimes
If you have Layla there's no need for Zhongli
Best thing about his constellations is you have them forever! Haha… C2 is definitely huge quality of life, makes shielding with him so much quicker for sure
I was building pity after two Neuvillette 50/50s won. Thinking there's no way I would win a third one so if I got a standard five star I would have a guaranteed mavuika. Lost (won) my 50/50 to zhongli early pity. Idk if to feel sad or happy yet
Edit: I play on mobile alot so he might be comfortable on an overworld/daily team
A difficult character to rate in any way, it so entirely depends on your account and skill progression. At the very least he is the safest safe bet for your primo.
I hope I win my 50/50s and arm able to snatch him along with Neuvi (I want to use him on my Lyney team for some more comfort + so I can use Kazuha with Neuvi)
I'm pulling for him, staff of homa + 4pc pale flame set are waiting for him.
i don't need zhongli, i want him
i kinda need mavuika and also kinda want her
i'm cooked.
Mee to
I’m so happy lol. I want to get Zhongli and fischl and Yao Yao. Perfect banner for me to splurge
but.... but..... i'm a zhongli simp.....🥺🥺🥺🥺
Bruh
Not even a second in and you already made me cackle, lol 😂
It would've been great if zhongli does not need cons for coop shield.
Havent played in months and decided to load up the game randomly and just pull a banner. I got johnli and I'm just tryna figure out how to use him well.
You didn't mention Nobles set... It's quite useful too
I'm pulling for Zhongli so I can finally farm the Scaradouche boss more easily... I need like 50 of his drops and I hate farming him...
Imagine if hoyo rebuilds Vortex Vanquisher someday :'l
Just got him finally
Love using 0.0001% of my brain
He’s worth it
Isn't is the same DPS loss from using a healer? Who goes to the abyss without any defensive units???
There are a lot of teams that wants ZL shield. If you want to just unga bunga damage without worrying dps loss from dodging, the geo daddy is the boss.
(My) Short answer: Build Layla and Kirara and you don't need Zhongli
(Unless you play on mobile, then Zhongli's good)
He is Mr Worldwide.
Zhongli = best comfort unit
The only thing is the geo shield. I am really terrified if the spiral abyss changes next and we get geo based enemy. Nah man I hate geo based enemies with my heart. For now I can see there's no use of him becoz neuvi is around and mauvika, but if the endgame is a geo based???........nah I am gonna pull him. The bosses aren't even tough and I am lyney main but the GEOOOOOO. Mfking shields. Imma pull him coz I don't wanna see the days of getting smacked down just just beoz I can't break a stupid shield. And I am blaming myself if I am lacking damage.
Pickle from the jar is good witha sandwich
eating pickles in 2024 is crazy
Doesnt zhongli give 20% resistance shread and 35% dmg binus with petra .......i think he can be decent replacement for xilonen.
for neuvillete ,furina,kazuha,zhongli should i go for tenacity or arche petra
Remember kids,
Neuvillette is for when you dont wanna play the game anymore, zhongli is for when you dont wanna try.
Lol so pick your poison unless ya got a Benjamin to waste an get both
Hahaha those two units are only a must pull if you're a new player or have been playing the game for years and still playing worse.
@momohirai6604 well or if ya just wanna break the game more then ya already do or wanna spice things up outside of a hyperbloom team lol
@@saavlewdfanpage yeah sometimes I just wanna play Powerwash simulator. My favorite dps gameplay is with Kinich though.
@th0r0shvener52 as he should
I donno .. Arlechino mono pyro doesn't lose any damage rather it gets increased
man i'm still confused between c1 neuvi or zongli
I pulled for Lyney. Got his weapon, but he's made from pocket lint and can get one shot. Is zhongli good for him. Now I play him with Bennet zhongdong on Petra and xilonen. Is he a big damage loss . People forget that he has 20 res shred just existing. Xilonen has just 10 more.
Just go yanfei for him if you have her c4
Hate dodging? I can't dodge consistently to save my life and I'm not sure if it's just Mihoyo being bad at visualizing attacks or if it's a latency issue.
Taking into account than lanyan (the new 4 star coming in 5.3) is arguably better than him, he isnt worth anymore . We also have citlali. But he is a good character anyways, you can get him if you like him.
Will Project Mugan Ananta be a Genshin killer...
U can call me a crazy ,but i got him at c5(going for c6) and use Staff of Homeless on him.
maybe a very dumb question, but do Favonius weapons proc on anyone their crits or just the character that is holding the weapon? couldn't really find anything about it so i figured i'd ask :D
Only the person holding the weapon for example if zhongli has favonius and he crits and gets the white particles but if someone without favonius crits they don’t generate white particles
lve been playing since 2.1. I wanted him since I play mostly on mobile. Now I dont want or need him anymore. I have xilo, furina and kazuha. AH QB or Ayato/raiden national,on the other side. C1 neuvi will be the only option for my alt.
my main has chasca, mualani,arlechino, navia. all have much better teams that dont need shieldfather since they all have some sort of resistance or avoidance to being staggered.
I was gonna pull him for my Navia team, but with Xilonen at home, there is no reason to pull him anymore. :( , stil a very cool unit tho, maybe on a future rerun will pull him.
Same situation, my next target is clorinde
same but for hutao.
Unsure if I want Zhongli, or if I should go for C2 Neuvillette. I love my Neuvillette, but Zhongli has a lot of utility as a flexible team addition for comfort (and possibly some Geo crystalizations). So even though I like using Neuv, maybe Zhongli would be better for me? But I also don't have a built Artifact set for him, so I'd have to dedicate resources into that while Neuv would be ready to go. Hmm.
U can use any hp artifact for zhongli. 2pc 2pc artifact with hp set bonus also works. 4pc tenacity would be useless if you use zhongli with neuvi since he doesn’t need atk buff. With zhongli, you can slot him in lots of team. But with neuvilette c2, you can ignore shielder in his team comp.
I try 50/50 on him and i win i am happy but also not because i want so many character like wanderer, navia and the new of natlan so
Always wanted him. Love using Chasca. Will he work with her?
Not with her bullets. They only work with fire, animo, electric, cryo, and hydro.
I love Zhongli, so I am going to triple crown him. ❤
Kindaaaaaaaaaaaaa... But nor in this particular moment.
damn, this video made me kind of want Zhongli's C1 so I can make a double wiener now.
