In Genshin Impact you can form teams of 4 characters among the more than 20 that are playable. Out of all the character combinations, we’ve found 5 of the best gear you can have in Genshin Impact . Find out in this article what they are, who makes up each team and the interactions between them. Within the game you can create up to four teams; We recommend including at least two or three from this list!
Team 1: Pyro as the main element
- Characters: Diluc, Xiangling, Fischl and Venti.
- Elements: Pyro, Electro and Anemo.
- Elemental Consonances: 2x Pyro. Reduces the duration of Cryo effects by 40% and increases attack by 25%.
- Possible elementary reactions:
- Overload (Electro + Pyro): Deals Pyro damage in area.
- Whirlwind (Electro → Anemo): Extends Electro elemental damage and spreads the effect.
- Whirlwind (Pyro → Anemo): spreads Pyro elemental damage and spreads the effect.
The first team in this guide is a very offensive one with an almost total focus on area damage. Diluc, the best DPS in the game, is the main character of the team. He is followed by Xiangling, who complements him in damage and activates Pyro’s elemental consonance. Both are joined by Fischl and Venti, two good supporters that cannot be lacking in this composition.
The best way to make the most of this team is to empower Diluc as soon as possible. Being such a powerful DPS, it allows the rest of the team to be more effective, especially when upgrading talents, unlocking constellations, etc.
Team 2: Cryo as the main element
- Characters: Chongyun, Kaeya, Fischl and Traveler (Anemo).
- Elements: Electro, Cryo and Anemo.
- Elemental Consonances: 2x Cryo. Reduces the duration of Electro effects by 40% and increases the critical rate against enemies frozen or affected by Cryo by 15%.
- Possible elementary reactions:
- Supercondutor (Electro + Cryo): Reduces the target’s defense for a few seconds and deals Cryo damage in area.
- Whirlwind (Cryo → Anemo): Extends Cryo elemental damage and spreads the effect.
- Whirlwind (Electro → Anemo): Extends Electro elemental damage and spreads the effect.
This team focuses more on crowd control. It doesn’t deal much damage, but you will be able to constantly freeze and interrupt due to the Cryo effects of Chongyun and Kaeya’s abilities. On the other hand, Fischl and the Traveler (Anemo) are supports that guarantee the spread of these control effects towards various enemies.
Team 3: Electro as the main element
- Characters: Razor, Kaeya, Fischl and Qiqi.
- Elements: Electro and Cryo.
- Elemental consonances:
- 2x Electro: Reduces the duration of Hydro effects by 40%. Superconductor, Overcharge, and Electrocharge have a 50% chance to generate Electro elemental shards.
- 2x Cryo: Reduces the duration of Electro effects by $ 40 and increases the critical rate against enemies frozen or affected by Cryo by 15%.
- Possible elementary reactions:
- Supercondutor (Electro + Cryo): Reduces the target’s defense for a few seconds and deals Cryo damage in area.
Thanks to Razor, this hybrid Electro / Cryo composition leans further into power generation and recovery. This character possesses abilities and talents that increase energy generation, so the rest of the team can use their ultimate abilities more frequently.
Depending on where you fight, this team can take out hordes of enemies with ease. It is also a team with good durability, as Qiqi is a very good healer, one of the best in Genshin Impact .
Team 4: Hydro as the main element
- Characters: Mona, Xiangling, Xingqiu and Venti.
- Elements: Hydro, Pyro and Anemo.
- Elemental consonances: 2x Hydro. Reduces the duration of Pyro effects by 40% and increases healing received by 30%.
- Possible elementary reactions:
- Vaporize: Deals extra damage to the target (x2 if activated with Pyro and x1.5 if activated with Hydro).
- Whirlwind (Pyro → Anemo): spreads Pyro elemental damage and spreads the effect.
- Whirlwind (Hydro → Anemo): Extends Hydro elemental damage and spreads the effect.
The fourth team has a great defensive focus and is made up of three of the best supporting characters in Genshin Impact (not counting Fischl). Mona and Xingqiu are the stars, as they provide security to the team by enhancing healings. As for Xiangling, she enables some interesting offensive options, such as Vaporize.
Xingqiu should be improved as much as you can, as his Hydropathic talent is benefited by the Hydro elemental consonance. With this character and the rest of the composition, you will see that Team 4 is a very safe one. It is the perfect composition if, in a team, you are looking for durability over damage.
Team 5: Geo as the main element
- Characters: Ningguang, Traveler (Geo), Fischl and Venti.
- Elements: Geo, Electro and Anemo.
- Elemental consonances: 2x Geo. Increases resistance against interruptions and, when protected by a shield, increases attack by 15%.
- Possible elementary reactions:
- Crystallize (Electro → Geo): Spawn an Elemental Shard. Touching the fragment will generate an elemental shield that absorbs all types of damage, but protects more efficiently against damage from the same element as the shield (Electro in this case).
- Whirlwind (Electro → Anemo): Extends Electro elemental damage and spreads the effect.
Fischl and Venti reappear in a team, this time to empower the rest of the team. The beneficiaries are Ningguang and Traveler (Geo), two well-balanced characters both in attack and defense.
It is one of the most versatile teams in Genshin Impact , with good offensive, defensive, utility options and crowd control tools. If you are looking for a team that has everything, without having to stand out in one aspect, this is ideal!
Have several teams ready
At Genshin Impact , it is important to consider everything related to the elements, strengths and weaknesses. A single composition will not be useful in every situation the game puts you in. Sometimes, you will need characters from elements not included in your composition, either to increase durability in your team or to exploit the weaknesses of the enemies.
For this reason, we advise you to prepare at least two or three teams that are very different from each other and that cover all possible elements. Combine the compositions presented in this article with others of your choice, and do not stop improving characters of different elements and roles. It is a worthwhile investment!
