Who Are All the Electro Characters in Genshin Impact?

Though the Electro element was a bit of a joke in the early days of Genshin Impact, a buff to its Elemental Resonance and the addition of the Dendro element have made it key to a number of powerful reactions. This guide will not only introduce all the Electro characters in the game, but will also note which ones are worth investing in.

All Electro characters in Genshin Impact

As of Version 4.3 of Genshin Impact, there are eleven characters of the Electro element. There’s a pretty even split in terms of DPS and support. Dendro-related Elemental Reactions such as Hyperbloom and Aggravate are some of the best reactions you can use with Electro. So Dendro characters like Nahida or Hydro characters like Xingqiu are generally really good support characters in an Electro team.

Here is a list of all the Electro characters in Genshin Impact, along with their weapon:

  • Beidou (4-star Claymore)
  • Cyno (5-star Polearm)
  • Dori (4-star Claymore)
  • Fischl (4-star Bow)
  • Keqing (5-star Sword)
  • Kujou Sara (4-star Bow)
  • Kuki Shinobu (4-star Sword)
  • Lisa (4-star Catalyst)
  • Raiden Shogun (5-star Polearm)
  • Razor (4-star Claymore)
  • Yae Miko (5-star Catalyst)

Who are the best Electro characters in Genshin Impact?

Arguably, Raiden Shogun is the best Electro character in the game. Her Skill makes her a great off-field support for your Elemental Bursts, as well as helps to enable Electro-based Elemental Reactions. If you give her Constellations, she can work very well as a main DPS too. Fischl is another great Electro character and is a popular choice for off-field Electro application. She is probably better than Raiden in that regard. Fischl can also serve as a battery for characters like Cyno, who heavily rely on their Bursts.

Here is a list of the best Electro characters in the game:

  • Raiden Shogun (SS)
  • Fischl (S)
  • Kuki Shinobu (A)
  • Keqing (A)
  • Yae Miko (A)

Thanks to new characters like Kuki Shinobu, a buff to Electro Resonance, and the addition of Dendro, Electro is one of the better elements in Genshin Impact now. That’s not to say that Electro needs to always run with Dendro, of course. You can use Cyno and run a team that focuses entirely on Electro’s power. You also have the option to run an Overloaded team that takes advantage of Chevreuse’s kit. The possibilities are endless.

Genshin Impact is readily available on the PS4, PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices.
