When you play Genshin Impact everything depends not only on your main character but also on the composition. You should learn how elements complement each other and build the best team for your main. Below you can see the best team composition for Raiden Shogun with Main DPS, sub DPS character and one support. Also, we have included alternative characters for each role that go well with Raiden Shogun too.
Raiden or so-called vessel of Baal can provide the team with decent energy with her Elemental burst. In addition, it has consistent Electro Status which gives strong DPS support to characters like Eula because of her high Elemental burst damage. By the way, Eula is the best option for main DPS with Raiden (Baal) as together they deal a lot of damage via Superconduct. So Raiden Shogun is a great sub DPS with burst damage and electro elemental spread. Kazuha will help them to gather enemies before the fight and increase damage from elements. While Diona provides the team with shields and heal. Eula and Diona together activate Cryo Resonance that gives extra Crit Rate.
Good characters for this comp: Tartaglia, Yoimiya, Ganyu, Diluc, Klee, Mona, Xingqiu, Bennett, Sucrose, Venti.
