How to Build a Team — The Golden Rule
Four roles, one strong reaction, and enough energy. That is all a working party needs.
Every working Genshin team rests on four building blocks. Miss one and the party feels hollow no matter how strong the units are.
The four blocks
- Main carry — takes the field time and turns support into damage
- Applier — keeps its element on the enemy so reactions keep firing
- Sustain — a healer or shielder that keeps you alive in hard content
- Support — buffs ATK, shreds RES, or spreads the element
Practical rule: one carry only. Two units that both want field time means one of them sits idle.
An example that explains itself
The National — working since launch
شيانغلينغ
شينغتشيو
بينيت
كايديهارا كازوها- شيانغلينغ sub-DPS: her burst throws Pyro constantly while she is off-field.
- شينغتشيو the ideal Hydro applier — his swords chase the enemy and keep them wet.
- بينيت heals and buffs ATK — two roles in one slot.
- كايديهارا كازوها swirls the Pyro and shreds its RES on every enemy.
The result: Vaporize firing almost every second, with healing, buffs, and enough energy.
