The strongest Genshin Impact characters for each Element in the Lore



I made a list of who I think are the strongest characters for each element. None of the elements were particularly easy to decide on a winner, but the hardest by far to decide on was Cryo, because almost all of the characters there are fighters. This video was a suggestion by one of the comments of my previous videos, I can’t seem to find the comment tho but still credits to him. I only included characters until Genshin Impact 2,4, and I included Baizhu as more of a joke Lol

  1. This video idea was suggested by someone in my comment section, but I cant seem to find their comment. Still credits to them

    Also this video was more of a way to learn more about the power level of certain characters so I dont mess up something in the battle royale lol

  2. I agree with most, but I would also like to share my thoughts.

    Pyro: Diluc – no doubt on this, he is actually Teyvat's strongest fighter.

    Electro: Beidou – no doubt also, lore wise, she is.

    Anemo: Xiao is the obvious answer.

    Geo: Albedo – you explained it very well. Also, as of now, he is the only alchemist known to closely mastering the art of the fallen nation that can give objects life and physical transformation.

    Cryo: Shenhe – Shenhe actually trained with the Adepti since childhood. Knowing that the Adepti actually care about her made her dedicated to what she is doing. Continuing further, she might became an Adepti herself.

    For Ganyu… She is not a fighter at all. Yes she said she took part in the Archon war, but we don't know what role she had. From the Guoba event, if it is her, we can see that she is part of the "rescue" and "relocate" team, not really on the fighter team Sad Guoba noises.

    Also, the "Half-Adeptus" title are confusing people. Being an Adepti means you are Adept to something, devoted, and extremely skilled. According to lore, the Adepti of Liyue are the people who had transcended already but chose to guide their land (and that is how Zhongli became an Adeptus), All of the original had already transcended from Human to creature serving as guides and guards (You can say that Vanessa also chose this path). Going back to the topic, Adepti are people who are Adept, it is a state not a Birth right (Xiao is the only character we know who is an Adepti but had not transcended yet). Ganyu on the other half, is not Adept, that is why Xiao is kind of pissed because she don't know what to do with her life. By birth category, let's say she is Half-Adepti due to one of her parent is an Adeptus, but in "state" she is not, it is only a question between "Adept" or "Not Adept."

    Hydro: Childe – Abyss lore is great.

    Spoilers ahead:
    But depending on how Kokomi's story will come through, maybe she will be above Childe. 1) she is a "sleeping draconess" that might be a metaphor of her inheriting the will of their God (in Eastern Myth, inheriting a will signify revival of different ways), so maybe she is the New God, embodying the spirit and power of Orobaxi. But it doesn't stop there, Enkanomiya story talks about an old God to human transformation, if she is the new shell of the "Old God of Enkanomiya" but also embody the will of Orobaxi, then that is the deal breaker, she will be on top of Childe. It is between 2 God fusion Vs a boy with Abyss experience.

  3. I think kaeya could win among the other cryo users
    We dont exactly know much about him and his power, all we know is that this guy is from the abyss and was called "the last hope of our home" by his father. There must be a reason why they sent a kid into the outside world. Maybe Kaeya holds some strong unknown abyss power, maybe something similar to Childes or even stronger

  4. I agree with Xiao, Albedo and Tartaglia, but for the other ones these are my thoughts…
    For Electro, it’d have to be Lisa. If you agree that if she were angry she could easily win, then that makes her the most powerful, regardless of whether she’s willing to put that power to use. For Pyro, I just don’t think we have enough knowledge to choose between Yanfei, Klee and Diluc. Diluc is probably the most skilled, but we don’t know what species Klee is, what kind of power she may have inherited from her mother, etc. For Yanfei, we simply don’t know how much her Adeptal heritage enhances her power. I don’t think there’s a clear choice that can be made here at all. For Cryo, although the obvious winner would seem to be Ganyu, I wouldn’t discount Shenhe at all. Ganyu is always busy with work, whereas Shenhe trains far more frequently, and despite not being an Adeptus has a constitution on a different level to other humans. SPOILERS FOR THE LASEST ARCHON QUEST INTERLUDE CHAPTER, I’LL LEAVE A LINE BREAK AFTER THE SPOILERS ARE OVER. Seemingly with relative ease, only being slightly out of breath after, she can stop a Tsunami dead in its tracks. Ganyu had an opportunity to stop it, as an Adeptus wielding the same Vision type as Shenhe, but didn’t. She just kinda stood there.

    Honestly I’d rank Shenhe just slightly above Ganyu for these reasons. As for Dendro, I think Baizhu is our only confirmed user, so he would be considered the most powerful.

  5. Shenhe might win because she destroy everything
    I also think Noelle would win geo because her workng shield and amazing power and she probably didnt get in the KoF because maybe Jean worried about Noelle like Noelle went to dragonspine last time on her own to save a random stranger.

  6. You forgot to mention that Diluc destroyed tens of the many Fatui strongholds in and outside of Snezhnaya, murdering all the agents and legionnaires stationed there all by himself
