If you’re considering choosing a new character for the Genshin Impact 3.0 banner, you’re probably wondering if it should be Tignari or Zhongli. And the answer is almost unequivocal: Zhongli, as long as he’s not already on your team. Of course, the reclusive founder of the largest funeral home, Liyue, has already appeared in the banner block several times and does not have a new update like Tighnari, but if you think you will use the new Dendro element in some title, Zhongli is The Best Option. important for his team in the sense that Tignari cannot match.
Tignari’s big draw is that he’s Dendro’s first five-star character, and by extension, he even has Dendro’s damage as a secondary stat. That’s impressive, but there’s one major limitation that HoYoverse has yet to address. You can’t turn a dendro.
This means that his usual strategy of using an Anemo character with a Viridescent Venerer artifact set to reduce enemy resistance to swirling elements just won’t work with Tighnari. This isn’t a major issue in normal play, but with higher levels of Spiral Abyss, any advantage you can get in combat to reduce game time is welcome.
This will double if HoYoverse continues their trend with 2.0 updates where they added powerful bosses to the monthly Abyss roster.
Stepping into that gap is Zhongli, the only character on Genshin Impact’s current roster whose abilities lower the enemy’s resistance to all elements right out of the box, so to speak. The 20% reduction inflicted by Zhongli’s Jade Shield is only half of what you get with Viridescent Venerer, but again, this set won’t work with Dendro anyway. Zhongli’s 20% handicap is something.
You ask, why not Tignari and Zhongli at the same time? And there’s a pretty reasonable answer for that.
If you’ve been playing Genshin for a while, you know that the chance of two five-star characters appearing on the same banner is pretty low, let alone when you consider the 50-50 chance of Qiqi hitting you. . the character you really want. If you choose Zhongli over Tighnari later on, you really won’t be missing out, and you definitely shouldn’t spend any money trying to get both.
In addition to Dendro Traveler, whose abilities seem worth using (unlike his electronic counterpart), you can also get Kolley for free during Graven Innocence, one of the events in Genshin Impact 3.0. She’s not a five-star character, but her kit makes it easy to create a dynamic elemental group around her and Dendro’s new branching reactions.
Regardless, Tignari switches to a permanent banner after September 9, so while his chances of getting him there are slimmer, he’s not tied to the two-and-a-half-week event.
And of course, it’s worth noting that since this is Genshin Impact, you can run just about any combination of characters. Zhongli’s role in Dendro’s parties is just one part of an ever-evolving metagame. Having him on your team is not something you should aim for, unless you can live without creating the best combinations possible.
