5 Star Characters

• Arataki Itto – is a great choice for the Main DPS role. Zhongli activates Geo Resonance, increases the damage and protects the team with shields.
• Hu Tao – shields keep her from worrying about her low HP, while Jade Shield lowers Elemental and Physical resistances, greatly increasing her damage output.
• Ganyu – Zhongli would be the perfect support for her, especially with the Tenacity of the Millelith artefact set.
• Albedo – Geo Resonance, strong shields and AoE damage. On top of all this, Albedo also helps recharge Zhongli’s, Elemental Burst.
• Raiden Shogun – Together with Zhongli, they will create the perfect team for any Cryo/Physical carry, such as Eula. Superconduct and Jade Shield will decrease Physical resistance, allowing you to deal massive damage to enemies.

4 Star Characters

• Ningguang – both characters buff each other’s damage. Jade Screen increases Geo damage, and Geo Resonance, in addition to additional damage, also increases shield strength and decreases opponents’ Geo resistance.
• Traveler (Geo) – an affordable solution for Geo Sub DPS.
• Fischl – off-field damage and energy particle generator.
• Xingqiu – serves as a source of additional passive damage for both the team and Zhongli.
• Bennett – great support overall, with good healing and damage buff.

To sum up, Zhongli is mainly used as Sub-DPS or Support Genshin Impact character for his shields and high damage from Elemental Burst.
