Top 10 Best Genshin Impact Characters

The Top Ten
1 Hu Tao

Hu Tao's damage is crazy, . I love Hu Tao's dark humour too. She's definitely my favourite

I don't know much about her but she's really cute and seems strong

2 Amber

My main, people who hate on her just don't know how to use her well and didn't raise her enough. As soon as they saw another pyro character they dropped her. It's very sad.

3 Venti

Deemed as the greatest bard in the world.

4 Diluc

I used to simp for him but now I just generally enjoy his character

5 Lumine
6 Bennett

Bennett is so versatile and his burst is probably my favourite in the game, the healing is so broken and he can slightly increase your attack, especially if you're a pyro. Also, he's just super likable and you can't hate the guy even if you tried.

Extremely versatile, very loveable, and amazing to have on a team.

7 Paimon

She's quite funny, only because people keep calling her "emergency food".

8 Albedo

I'm a sucker for this guy. I don't really like his in-game design though, I like his art more.

9 Lisa

I love Lisa! Her personality, voice, design, everything is awesome!

10 Zhongli

His shield is very OP and his petrification is amazing.

The Contenders
11 Beidou
12 Chongyun
13 Xiao

Xiao is one of the best, well-rounded charecters in the game. His story, strength and ablities make him beyond enjoyable to play as.

"The time has come for humans to put their glowing trash in the ocean."

14 Klee

Klee is a pretty good damage dealer, her bombs do a lot of damage.

15 Barbara

Really strong! She is a vital part of my team.

16 Fischl
17 Kaeya

Aside from being, in my opinion, the best looking character in this game by a rather generous margin, his backstory and personality are rich all in colour, flavour and texture. I find it unfortunate that so many people don't bother giving him any second thought since he gives off the impression of being quite the flirty prick, on top of being nerfed in game when it comes to fighting. The thing is that his attitude is a firm consequence of his past, and he's factually one of the most brilliant characters in the game to this day, which I think is well proved by his tactical and rational thinking. He does lack empathy at times, but as I mentioned before he experienced extreme shocks at a very young age. There's definitely a lot more depth to his personality than I would have expected, but it's a shame he gets overshadowed because you most likely wouldn't guess how much of more of a complex character he is unless you really make the effort to either unlock all of his friendship stories, directly look up his backstory or read the manga. There's also a lot of shade surrounding him making him even more interesting, and I do hope he will be able to finally shine in late game.

All in all, in-game wise he's nothing remarkable aside from his great design, lore/personality wise he's got a great lot going on and is subjectively, to me, one of the best written character in the game.

18 Ganyu

I don't have Ganyu because she's too hard to get but she's really OP from what I heard.

19 Dainsleif

Yet Mihoyo still hasn't released him as a playable character like they were supposed to promise..

20 Tartaglia (Childe)

I used to hate him but after his story quest he's one of my favorites

21 Xiangling

Xiangling is a good 4 star and is probably my 2nd favourite apart from Bennett. Her burst is really good and can burn anyone from any direction if they're too close.

22 Keqing

Eh... I'm not really interested in her that much

What I can say is she definitely is in love with ganyu

23 Nahida
24 Jebrael
25 Qiqi

Qiqi is a great healer by the way and her burst in underrated.
