The top five best Genshin Impact characters for newcomers:

1. Kaedehara Kazuha

Kaedehara Kazuha, a wandering samurai, is one of the strongest Anemo characters in Genshin Impact. Kazuha is a skilled swordsman who is able to use Anemo vision. His fighting style can help him quickly defeat his enemies. His burst, Kazuha Slash, is a single slash that strikes with the force of the first winds of autumn, dealing AoE Anemo damage to his rivals. Besides, Chihayaburu-Kazuha's Elemental Skill essentially performs a double jump by using the air around him to raise him higher into the air. When gathering Oculi and exploring the open world, this ability is very helpful.

2. Raiden Shogun

Raiden Shogun is a 5-Star Electro Polearm character in Genshin Impact. Raiden Shogun's Elemental Skill is known as Transcendence: Baleful Omen which creates an "Eye of Stormy Judgment" that affects nearby enemies.

In addition, Raiden Shogun can increase the team’s Elemental Burst DMG and regenerate energy for the team. She also carries your team as a supporting character. Raiden is good at both dealing damage and supporting the team.

3. Zhongli

Zhongli is one of the coolest characters in Genshin Impact. The strongest shield in the game is offered by Zhongli's Elemental Skill. It offers 150% damage absorption against all physical and elemental damage and scales based on his HP. Due to his extremely strong shielding abilities, Zhongli is utilized in a support role for many different team configurations. Considered one of the best all-around characters in Genshin Impact, he also has tremendous burst and main DPS potential.

4. Sangonomiya Kokomi

Sangonomiya Kokomi Kokomi is the best dedicated healer in Genshin Impact. Normal Attack, Charged Attack, and Bake-Kurage DMG are increased based on her Max HP. When her Normal and Charged Attacks hit opponents, Kokomi will restore HP for all nearby opponents, and the amount restored is based on her Max HP. Her Normal Attack is called “The shape of water” which performs up to 3 consecutive attacks that take the form of swimming fish, dealing Hydro DMG. Her Elemental Skill deals Hydro DMG to surrounding opponents and heals nearby active characters at fixed intervals. This healing is based on Kokomi's Max HP.

5. Yelan

Yelan is a 5-Star Hydro Bow character in the game Genshin Impact. Her Normal Attack uses a bow to fire up to four consecutive shots. Her Charged Attack performs an Aimed Shot with enhanced DMG that is more precise. Instead of reducing off-field Hydro damage, Yelan increases the active character's damage by 3.5% per second. It can be up to 50% while her ultimate ability is active.
