Characters and equipment that use this material

Dendro★★★★★

Baizhu

Released May 2, 2023Dendro support who combines healing, brief defensive coverage, and reaction damage bonuses. Consider Baizhu when a party benefits from regular healing and Dendro-related reaction support.Guide

Baizhu uses his Elemental Skill to send out a sprite that attacks up to three times before returning to heal nearby party members. His Elemental Burst creates renewable shields that heal the active character and deal Dendro damage when shields are created, expire, or break. Characters healed by those shields receive a short reaction-damage bonus that scales with his Max HP.

Electro★★★★

Beidou

Released Sep 28, 2020Electro claymore user who counters incoming attacks with Tidecaller and provides a Burst that triggers bouncing Electro damage from Normal and Charged Attacks. Consider Beidou when the party can make use of those attack-triggered discharges, particularly when multiple opponents can be hit by the jumps.Guide

Beidou combines a reactive Skill with an attack-triggered Burst. Tidecaller’s hold shield absorbs damage and increases its counter damage when Beidou is hit, reaching its greatest bonus after two hits. Stormbreaker reduces damage and interruption while enabling lightning discharges when the active character lands Normal or Charged Attack hits.

Anemo★★★★★

Xianyun

Released Jan 31, 2024Plunging support, healer, and Anemo damage dealerGuide

Xianyun combines party healing with a Burst that raises nearby active characters' jump height and supports Plunging Attacks. Her Skill lets her leap up to three times before a Plunging Attack, so consider her for teams that want healing and plunge-focused play, or for her own Anemo mobility and plunge damage.

Hydro★★★★

Xingqiu

Released Sep 28, 2020Hydro sword character whose Burst triggers Hydro sword rain from the active character’s Normal Attacks, with damage reduction and interruption resistance from Rain Swords.Guide

Xingqiu is useful when the active character can use Normal Attacks during his Burst: those attacks trigger consecutive Hydro sword rain. His Skill and Burst create Rain Swords that reduce damage and improve interruption resistance. The Burst costs 80 Energy, which is a practical consideration when planning its use.

Pyro★★★★

Xinyan

Released Dec 1, 2020Pyro claymore character with a DEF-scaled shield whose strength and extra effects depend on how many opponents her skill hits.Guide

Consider Xinyan when you want a shield that can also deal periodic Pyro damage and increase shielded characters’ Physical damage. Her skill’s opponent-count thresholds determine the shield level; her burst combines a Physical hit with Pyro explosions.

Pyro★★★★

Yanfei

Released Apr 28, 2021On-field Pyro catalyst damage dealerGuide

Yanfei converts Normal Attacks into Scarlet Seals and spends those seals on stronger, wider Charged Attacks. Her skill and burst grant maximum seals; her burst also boosts Charged Attack damage while she remains on field.

Geo★★★★★

Zhongli

Released Dec 1, 2020Shield support and resistance debufferGuide

Zhongli’s held Elemental Skill creates a Jade Shield that absorbs Physical and Elemental damage and reduces nearby opponents’ resistances. His burst adds AoE Geo damage and brief petrification, while the Stone Stele can resonate with nearby Geo constructs.
