This guide features tier lists of each of the best characters according to their main weapons. Although some of these may be difficult to obtain due to their rarity, their effectiveness and utility in combat make them essential pieces for any team.<\/p>\n
Genshin Impact 2.4 character tier list – How it works<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Our Genshin tier list will be divided into five main levels, depending on the characters’ overall performance. (Picture: Tierlists.com)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n These tier lists will be divided into four levels, which we will describe below:<\/p>\n
- \n
- SS-Tier<\/strong>: The best characters in the game, taking into account the current metagame.<\/li>\n
- S-Tier<\/strong>: Characters that are remarkable and very good, useful for whatever situation you face.<\/li>\n
- A-Tier<\/strong>: Good characters who can balance our team if we don’t have the best.<\/li>\n
- B-Tier<\/strong>: Not-so-bad characters, but they should be replaced by better ones as soon as you get the chance to do so.<\/li>\n
- C-Tier<\/strong>: The ones you must avoid, only for emergency use or if you don’t have a character to fill in a specific role.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
This goes without saying (but it’s worth pointing out) that tier lists are not an exact science, especially in a game where most of your party will depend on your luck or even your favourite characters. However, this will bring you a better point of view on how to build your team the best way possible.<\/p>\n
Without further ado, let’s get started.<\/p>\n
Bow-user characters in 2.4<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Genshin Impact Bow character tier list. (Picture: miHoYo \/ Tierlists.com)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n If there are two Genshin Impact characters that have managed to stay as the best of the best since their launch in the game, these have been Venti and Ganyu.<\/p>\n
While Venti<\/a> can create a large amount of CC thanks to his elemental burst, in addition to his excellent energy recharge that allows him to spam his abilities, Ganyu<\/a> stands out for the various combos she can inflict against large hordes of enemies, which makes her an essential element for any quest.<\/p>\n
Next, we will have Tartaglia<\/a>, who has one of the best DPS in the entire game thanks to all his arsenal of skills, as well as great versatility to hit melee thanks to his Hydro daggers, along with Yoimiya<\/a> and her firework-based attacks that allow her to do a massive amount of Pyro damage to all the enemies around, closing in with the cute Diona<\/a>, who with her Cryo abilities can freeze multiple enemies at once, as well as providing many shields and heals.<\/p>\n
She is followed by both Kujou Sara<\/a> and Gorou<\/a>, who thanks to the power of their abilities can boost their entire teams and create elemental reactions around them, making them two of the best characters with support and sub-DPS capabilities. Fischl<\/a> can also deal tons of Electro DMG thanks to her crow Oz, being useful for many elemental reactions, and it’s one of those characters who’s easier to get to C6, however, she can be overshadowed by Sara’s power as well.<\/p>\n
Aloy<\/a> is also a good DPS dealer, as she can strike hard when combined with her Predator bow, but sadly, her highest potential is restricted only for PlayStation users. Lastly, Amber<\/a> is useful for puzzles and can be good for an emergency whenever you need to explode something with Pyro attacks, however, if you already have Yoimiya or another better Pyro character, then forget about her.<\/p>\n
Catalyst-user characters in 2.4<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Genshin Impact Catalyst character tier list. (Picture: miHoYo \/ Tierlists.com)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Standing out from the rest of the characters, Mona<\/a> is one of the best supports in the game right now, as she can immobilize several enemies at once, allowing for many Cryo reactions, while her taunting phantom can also protect your other units.<\/p>\n
She is closely followed by Sucrose<\/a>, a character who can launch enemies into the air with her Anemo skills, and her burst allows her to make some good elemental combinations with all enemies trapped in a gigantic vortex, while thanks to her bombs and her high base attack. stats, Klee<\/a> can become as strong as a supernova in battle, although her range can be a little tricky to deal with.<\/p>\n
Ningguang’s<\/a> unique shield can help you shape the combat as it blocks projectiles and grants buffs, and her attacks can make a lot of DPS. Yanfei<\/a> has a lot of strong charged attacks thanks to her Scarlet Seals passive, that increase her damage potential. Meanwhile, Sangonomiya Kokomi<\/a> has become the new healer by excellence, as all of her abilities are purely based on making your team survive, even against the hardest enemies.<\/p>\n
We can’t also forget about Barbara<\/a>, another great healer fantastic for emergencies, although she has one of the lowest base ATK stats in the game. Finally, Lisa’s<\/a> Electro skills are good due to her high base ATK, but these are just of little use compared to other Electro characters.<\/p>\n
Claymore-user characters in 2.4<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Genshin Impact Claymore character tier list. (Picture: miHoYo \/ Tierlists.com)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Among the heavy Claymore users, Eula<\/a> has completely overtaken the top tier as she can deal massive amounts of physical damage thanks to her stacks, her Cryo capabilities, and her fast strikes. Besides, she has now found some competition with the arrival of Arataki Itto<\/a>, the half-human half-oni legend who can slay everything around with the power of a rageful beast.<\/p>\n
Not so far we will also find Diluc<\/a>, one of the best DPS characters in the game with high base ATK power and devastating Pyro abilities, together with Razor<\/a> who is among the best close combat characters thanks to his skills that increase his melee damage, however, his lack of utility with elemental reactions can be quite hard to deal with.<\/p>\n
Next up, Sayu<\/a> can deal damage and also heal party members, and her elemental skill can deal different kinds of damage as she spins across the battlefield, infused with the elements she interacts with, and while Noelle<\/a> may be a little weak compared to others, her defensive stats and abilities make her one of the tankiest characters in the game.<\/p>\n
Chongyun’s<\/a> Cryo abilities allow to do lots of elemental reactions, that can immobilize and overcome any enemy if paired with a good Hydro character. Beidou<\/a> is a character with explosive power that can deal with any challenge you find in front, however, she depends on how much you enhance her power, and as for Xinyan<\/a>, she has the best base attack of all 4-star characters, becoming a good option in case you don’t have Diluc or a good Pyro character on hand.<\/p>\n
Polearm-user characters in 2.4<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Genshin Impact Polearm character tier list. (Picture: miHoYo \/ Tierlists.com)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n The little pool of Polearm characters is currently dominated by four powerhouses with different elements and skillsets, starting with the Raiden Shogun<\/a>, who shocked her way into the top tier thanks to her majestic Electro abilities, and combined with her passive Energy regen, she is one of the best elements to carry around your team.<\/p>\n
The Electro Archon is accompanied by Hu Tao<\/a>, whose attacks can deal large amounts of Pyro DMG thanks to her elemental skill, and combined with her burst, she can become an OP high-damage dealer, while Zhongli’s<\/a> Geo abilities make him one of the most wanted characters around the game, with big damage outputs and a lot of resilience in combat, and Xiao<\/a> is a character based on being a DPS machine, capable of hitting multiple enemies at the same time and with his burst, becomes a demon that can destroy anything on his path.<\/p>\n
As for the lower tier characters, Xiangling<\/a> can be a good alternative for a Pyro character thanks to her area skills and rapid attacks, while Thoma<\/a> is also a great pick due to his powerful shields that give you a brief Pyro affinity, and more resilience during the battle, and Rosaria’s<\/a> arsenal makes her a very useful character for her Cryo AoE reactions, but compared to other Cryo characters, her utility is very limited.<\/p>\n
Last but not least, we have put Shenhe<\/a> at A-Tier as she can make fantastic Cryo effects with her AoE skills and boost other Cryo character attacks, making her a good new support character. As for Yun Jin<\/a>, she will also be placed at A-Tier, as her best attacks depend mostly on how much you charge her skills, however, her burst can increase quite significantly your party’s attacks based on her DEF.<\/p>\n
Sword-user characters in 2.4<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Genshin Impact Sword character tier list. (Picture: miHoYo \/ Tierlists.com)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Closing these tier lists, there is no other way to top the Sword character than with Kamisato Ayaka<\/a>, a great damage dealer with Cryo affinity who can use lots of reactions to exterminate all enemies around, along with Kaedehara Kazuha<\/a>, who has a lot of potential both as a DPS and as support with his Anemo abilities, that can strike your enemies around to create great elemental effects.<\/p>\n
These Inazuman adventurers are followed by Bennett<\/a> who, although doesn’t have impressive attack stats, his damage bonuses and healings, as well as his good elemental control, makes him one of the best utility characters, together with Xingqiu<\/a>, who with his Elemental skills can provide DMG reduction as some great elemental reactions, making him a fantastic sub-DPS unit.<\/p>\n
Very close to the top tier, Albedo<\/a> counts with Geo skills that make him more viable to deal with hordes of enemies, while Jean’s<\/a> versatility as support and sub-DPS is fantastic for your team, thanks to her CC abilities and HP regen. Next, Keqing<\/a> has some of the best combinations in stats that along with her Electro power, makes her an amazing melee fighter, and Kaeya<\/a> is one of those characters with Cryo skills that can be quite useful sometimes, with rapid strikes and devastating area damage. <\/p>\n
