If you're diving into the Lantern Rite event in *Genshin Impact*, choosing the right four-star character is crucial, whether you're a newcomer or a seasoned player looking to enhance your team. The decision can significantly impact your gameplay, so let's delve into which characters you should consider.
Which Four-Star To Choose in Lantern Rite Genshin Impact
First and foremost, if you have a favorite character you're missing or want to boost with a new constellation, that's your go-to choice. However, if you're looking for recommendations, we've got you covered.
The standout choice this time is the new four-star, Lan Yan. As an Anemo shielder, she's perfect for teams needing survivability without healing, such as those featuring Hu Tao and Arlecchino. Additionally, she can shred enemy resistance when equipped with the Viridescent Venerer artifact set, making her a valuable asset. Most players won't have her yet, so she's a strong pick. If you're pulling for Arlecchino or Clorinde during their banners, you might also snag Lan Yan. Her second constellation enhances her shield regeneration during normal attacks, significantly boosting her utility.
Next up, consider Xingqiu, Xiangling, and Yaoyao. Let's start with Yaoyao. She's a top-tier Dendro healer who can keep your team's health topped up effortlessly. Her skill heals the active party member and hits enemies, while her burst heals the entire team, making her ideal for bloom, hyperbloom, aggravate, spread, or burning teams. The best part? She's effective even at constellation zero, so no need for multiple copies.
Xingqiu and Xiangling are legendary four-star units in *Genshin Impact*. If you don't have them, they're must-haves. Xingqiu excels as a sub-DPS, applying Hydro for freeze and vape teams, while also offering damage reduction and minor healing. His final constellation amplifies his already impressive capabilities.
Xiangling, another sub-DPS, specializes in Pyro. Her ultimate unleashes a pyronado that deals damage and applies Pyro for reactions. You receive Xiangling upon clearing Spiral Abyss floor 5, but her constellations, especially the fourth one, extend her burst duration by 40%, making her even more potent.
If you already possess these characters, consider selecting one you need more constellations for. This ensures you make the most of the event's rewards.
