In the game Genshin Impact, characters who help the team called support characters, are very important.
Even if you find a character later who can attack well (DPS), the help that a good support character gives, like protection (shields) and making your team stronger (damage bonuses), is unique. This is especially true for one of the strongest characters you can get, known as the Geo Archon.
Genshin Impact Zhongli Build
Zhongli is a top-rated five-star character in Genshin Impact who fights with a Polearm and belongs to the Geo element.
When he first appeared in the game, he was already strong, but then he received a huge improvement that made him even better, making him one of the best support characters for certain situations. What’s great is that it’s not hard to make Zhongli a powerful part of your team.
If you’ve been playing Genshin Impact for a bit, you might have heard about how powerful Zhongli’s Elemental Burst is. It can increase damage by nearly 900 percent at level ten based on his attack power, which is one of the highest boosts in the game.
But the interesting thing is, that’s not even the main thing about him. What Zhongli is known for is his ability to create shields.
These shields protect your team members from taking damage. So, even though he can do a lot of damage with the right setup, his main job is to keep your team safe and boost their damage, not to be the main damage dealer.
| Artifact Set | Archaic Petra, Tenacity of the Millelith |
| Weapons | Vortex Vanquisher, The Catch, Wavebreaker’s Fin |
If you’re playing Genshin Impact without spending much money (F2P or low-spending), you’ll find it best to use Zhongli as a supporting character. The artifacts and weapons we talked about before are great for him.
The first artifact set can make him increase damage for a certain type of attack by 35% when you pick up a special item called a crystallized shard. The second set helps make your whole team stronger.
You can also mix and match two pieces from the Archaic Petra set with two pieces from the Retracing Bolide set. This combo gives Zhongli’s shields more power, making it easier for him to protect your team.
When it comes to weapons, if you don’t have a special weapon made just for Zhongli, it might be hard to find Polearms that fit perfectly with his abilities. But the other two weapons we mentioned can still help him do more damage with his powerful attack.
| Artifact Set | Emblem of Severed Fate |
| Weapons | Staff of Homa, The Catch |
Zhongli has a passive that raises his Normal Attack, Skill, and Burst DMG dependent on his current HP, as well as the stat that determines how much DMG his shield can withstand. This allows him to become a semi-DPS in your party, dealing primarily Burst DMG anytime you use his Elemental Burst.
For this build, the ideal weapon is the Staff of Homa, which provides both HP and ATK. However, The Catch can work well with the Emblem of Severed Fate set.
