Explaining the Tier List
The Genshin Impact Character Tier List is designed to assist players in making informed decisions about their party composition and the best characters to pull for. Characters are evaluated based on two primary criteria: utility and personal strength.
The tier list is divided into five tiers—S, A, B, C, and D—each representing the character's effectiveness in different aspects of the game. Keep in mind that the Tier List is based on C0 of every character, and that having higher constelations of characters can and will make them better, helping them rank up through the tiers!

S Tier Characters
These characters are the best in the game as of now, and reside in the S Tier due to their exceptional utility and personal strength. Whether it's dealing massive damage, providing crucial support, or enabling versatile team compositions, S Tier characters excel in various aspects of gameplay.
Neuvillette
One of the newest Hydro characters and a monster of a DPS. Neuvillette does great in Single Target and Multi Target fights, as is one of the best DPS characters in the current state of the game.
Yelan
Ever since her release Yelan has continued to be on of the best Sub-DPS characters, and that still rings true even after the release of Version 4.3. She is a great pick for any team, and she contributes a lot with her off field damage.
Furina
Since her release in Version 4.2, Furina has been said to be one of the best characters in Genshin Impact, and is a great support, healer, buffer, damage dealer, and basically everything else. Furina excels at any part of the game and if you have her she is certain to make your journey through Teyvat easier.
Nahida
With the release of the Dendro element a lot of new opportunities opened up to players and the Dendro element became a staple in many teams. Nahida, being the best Dendro applied in the whole game, naturally shot through the tier lists, cementing her place as one of the best characters to use, even after the release of Fontaine!
Below you can see the remaining characters that fall into the S Tier:
- Alhaitham
- Hu Tao
- Raiden Shogun
- Kazuha
- Xingling
- Xingqiu
- Zhongli
- Bennett
- Kokomi

A Tier Characters
The A Tier characters are powerful and bring valuable skills to the table. While they might not reach the same heights as S Tier characters, they remain solid choices for various team compositions and playstyles.
Navia
With her release in Version 4.3 Navia became on of the best DPS characters, rising quick through the tier list with her stupidly high numbers with her E skill. Although her numbers are great, she can be slightly limiting when it comes to utility, which is why is also in A Tier.
Lyney
Lyney is another great DPS pick out of our A Tier characters. His high numbers and ability to used in various teams makes him a good choice for a lot of players.
Yae Miko
Yae Miko is by far the best Electro Sub-DPS that we currently have in the game. The diversity she brings to Dendro and Hydro teams is unmatched, and although her turrets may be somewhat difficult to work around at times, she is a great unit bringing a lot of utility and damage.
Baizhu
Although he lacks slightly when compared to Kokomi, Baizhu is great healer, as well as a shielder that brings a lot to any team. Him being with a Dendro vision makes him a good pick for any team focusing on the Dendro element.
Venti
The first Archon that players get to meet, and one of the best CC units in the game. Although Venti has slightly fallen in the meta with the release of characters like Kazuha, he is nonetheless a great pick for any team, and his ability to group enemies and shred resistances is not to be overlooked.
