Summary
Genshin Impact’s gameplay revolves around forming a team of four characters to fight monsters and challenge domains. You can mix and match several characters according to their elements and abilities to trigger different Elemental Reactions and create unique interactions.
At first, you might find team building a little restrictive due to the limited number of characters that you can obtain, as well as five-star characters only being available through wishing. However, the casual nature of the game will prove that you don’t always need five-stars to beat its content, as four-star characters are more than enough to carry you should you encounter any situation in Teyvat.
The Best Four-Star Teams To Use In Domains And The Spiral Abyss
Domains are temple-like buildings that you can enter to challenge enemies and claim rewards. Completing the various challenges within the domains will reward you with various items that you’ll need to strengthen your characters, such as Artifacts, Talent Materials, and Weapon Ascension Materials in exchange for Original Resin.
Meanwhile, the Spiral Abyss is a special type of domain that includes multiple challenges and, as such, gives out multiple rewards, including Primogems. Conquering domains may prove to be challenging as you need to defeat formidable enemies within a certain time limit.Use these strong four-star teams to clear any content depending on which Elemental Reaction you need:
Ningguang, Xingqiu, Bennett, Xiangling
The Best Four-Star Teams To Use For Exploration
Exploration in Genshin Impact is one of its best aspects, as its massive map is completely open-world. However, the sheer size of the terrain that you need to cover might also pose some trouble due to the limited stamina you may use.
Luckily, there are some characters whose skills provide great mobility, which is perfect for Overworld exploration.Putting some of these characters together can help you manage your Stamina better and reach destinations more quickly:
For Traversing Faster
Use Lynette and Sayu’s Skills in succession to move faster. When both of their Skills are on cooldown, use Diona’s shield by holding her Skill to increase your Movement SPD and lower your Stamina Consumption by ten percent.
Afterward, switch to Kaeya as taller characters are much faster and can cover more distance. You’ll also be able to take advantage of his Exploration Talent, which decreases sprinting Stamina consumption by 20 percent.
This team utilizes Anemo Resonance, which further decreases Stamina consumption by 15 percent and increases Movement SPD by 10 percent. Additionally, it also shortens Skill Cooldown by five percent.
Other characters with the same passive as Kaeya may also be used. These are Chevreuse, Shikanoin Heizou and Razor.
For Stamina Management
This team is composed of characters who decrease your Stamina consumption in various situations. Use Kirara’s hold Skill to climb walls and mountains faster and use less Stamina. Meanwhile,Collei,Kaeya, and Beidou’s Exploration Talents will allow you to use less Stamina when gliding, sprinting, and swimming, respectively.
Like Lynette and Sayu, Kirara’s Skill may also be used to move quickly on land, not just on walls.
Candace and Amber can be used to replace Kirara and Collei.
The Best Four-Star Teams To Use For Ley Line Farming
Farming Ley Lines will require you to defeat enemies that range from easily beatable to slightly challenging. Since it can be a repetitive process, it would be bad if your main source of damage is from your Elemental Bursts, and you don’t have it ready when you need it.
You can still use Burst-dependent characters in the Overworld if you use weapons with Energy-focused passives, such as the Favonius and Sacrificial weapons.
When farming Ley Lines, it can be more efficient to use characters whose main source of damage is easily accessible.These four-star teams can make Ley Line farming much easier:
The Best Four-Star Teams To Use For Specific Enemies And Scenarios
Sometimes, enemies can be tricky to deal with because they have additional gimmicks and mechanics that can make them more challenging. These mechanics can include immunity to a specific element, elemental shields, the ability to fly, and the need to trigger specific elemental reactions to weaken them.
When exploring, you need to be prepared and use the right lineup for specific enemies and scenarios.Not being able to cancel their mechanics will give you a harder time defeating them, so have these teams ready:
Pyro shield/aura
Cryo shield/aura
Electro shield/aura
Use Pyro, Cryo, or Dendro charactersto trigger Elemental Reactions.
Hydro shield/aura
Xiangling/Yanfei, Bennett, Chevreuse, Fischl
Collei, Yaoyao, Fischl, Kuki Shinobu

Barbara, Collei, Yaoyao, Rosaria/Kaeya
Corrosion is a status that, after being applied, will slowly drain your entire team’s HP.Use characters with teamwide healingto mitigate this.
Freminet, Xingqiu, Collei/Yaoyao, Kuki Shinobu
Enemies with Pneuma or Ousia alignments can be weakened byhitting them with the opposite energy.
