Genshin Impact 3.1 Tier List
It should be noted that a high tier character outperforms lower-tiered characters in terms of damage, versatility for the same amount of investment, and overall performance regardless of teammates. A lower-tier character does not necessarily indicate that the character is bad, but rather that the character is working in niche teams/situations or that better alternatives are available in the game. Finally, the characters are not ranked within their respective tiers.

Best characters
- Bennett: Fantastic Voyage, Bennett’s elemental burst, creates an area that heals and boosts the team’s attack based on his attack damage. Bennet has limitations on attack damage boost and healing, but they will be removed once he obtained the first constellation.
- Venti: The Monstadt Anemo archon continues to be a very powerful character who can still be useful even if one does not build decent artifacts because of the potent crowd control that his elemental burst can offer.
- Zhongli: As usual, Zhongli is the most powerful support character, dealing insane amounts of damage while also providing shields for your team. Depending on how players build Zhongli, he can either provide Geo Damage over a large area or have enough health that his shield prevents any kind of damage to the player.

Best characters
- Kazuha: Due to his damage multipliers, Kazuha is an excellent Sub DPS character. His elemental burst, combined with the Viridescent Venerer benefit, allows for a significant amount of overtime.
- Raiden Shogun: In Genshin Impact, Raiden is an outlier. As previously stated, she is a true all-rounder. Her diverse skill set is certain to fit into any team that the players can think of.
- Xiangling: With her consistent pyro damage, Xialing is regarded as one of the game’s strongest Sub-DPS. Because of the new artifact set and the new polearm, she has risen to the top of the rankings as a pyro support/sub-DPS.

- Ganyu: Has unrivaled dominance in terms of DPS scalings in charge attacks. Ganyu can outperform the majority of DPS characters in terms of damage output when paired with a hydro character.
