They are both 'selfish' DPS, but they are a surprisingly good duo. If someone were looking for a pure offensive damage output pair, then they should consider putting Hu Tao and Childe on the same team. However, Tartaglia applies Hydro extremely fast, so Vaporize damage can be constantly dealt. Instead, it is Xiangling, star of Genshin Impact's National Team, when her Elemental Burst is active. It consists of Tartaglia, Xiangling, Bennett, and any other Anemo unit. Since Childe applies Hydro faster than Pyro is inflicted during Xiangling's Elemental Burst, Childe is not the one dealing Vaporize damage. Vaporize Childe is another very popular Genshin Impact team.

Combine that with Childe's riptide mechanic and his rapid attacks, and enemies will consistently be launched before they can even make any attacks. It can also keep enemies in midair when timed properly. The Electro-Charged elemental reaction deals Electro damage over time and can spread amongst enemies in an AoE. In addition, with all the newer bows released in Genshin Impact, he now has many more viable bow options to choose from.Įlectro-Charged is one of the more longer-lasting Genshin Impact Elemental Reactions, so it is reliable damage that can be reapplied over and over. This helps players manage his melee time and prevent long cooldowns. The 2-pc set gives Hydro DMG Bonus, and the 4-pc gives increased normal and charged attack by 30% for 15 seconds after using Elemental Skill. This is further proven by the 'Heart of Depth' artifact set that players claimed was created specifically for him. Related: Genshin Impact: How Kamisato Ayato Compares To Other Hydro Users

He also has one of the highest Elemental Burst scaling, earning him a spot in one of the best Genshin Impact Hydro characters to build. His Elemental Burst during ranged stance also returns 20 energy, which he can then continue to collect enough energy for another Elemental Burst in his melee stance, all in one DPS window.

Riptide is applied easier during his ranged stance. His charged ranged attacks can deal some good damage with CRIT and when combined with any elemental reaction. On the other hand, fans of Childe are claiming that he is every bit as viable as any top-tier 5-star unit. Initially, a lot of bows' passive effects also did not work during his melee stance. His Genshin Impact 5-star character Elemental Burst during melee stance scales almost 150% higher than his ranged burst. Hence, the long cooldown is detrimental to his viability. Some people claim he is only noteworthy during his melee stance, and that his ranged attacks are practically useless. When he is in melee stance for the longest available duration, his cooldown is a massive 45 seconds. Players' main critique of Childe is his long Elemental Skill cooldown. Unlike most other Hydro units that excel in sub-DPS or support roles, he does not inflict the 'Wet' status onto himself and fulfills the role of a pure Hydro DPS. In melee stance, Childe's attack animations are the fastest, so he applies Hydro very rapidly. He is still the only unit that has both ranged and melee attacks. Tartaglia is still the most unique unit in all of Genshin Impact. His one-of-a-kind Genshin Impact character utility passive talent called 'Master of Weaponry' increases all party members' Normal Attack Level by 1. Childe's Skill Set Is Like No Other In Genshin Impact Ayato's utility passive talent is questionable, and Yelan's expedition utility passive belongs to one of the most useless passive talents. Here is why Childe is still a very viable unit, even with Kamisato Ayato and Yelan. Furthermore, Ayato's best artifact set gives him more ATK.

This sort of ambiguity makes it difficult for Ayato to be fully optimized. And yet, players claim that Ayato deals much more damage when built with regular ATK stats. Some of the best characters such as Hu Tao and Zhongli all scale off HP. Having characters scale off HP is definitely not a bad idea, especially because HP artifacts can finally be used. Leaks of Yelan indicate that she scales off HP for damage, along with Kamisato Ayato. Yelan was officially teased by HoYoverse in late March and is predicted to be released in Genshin Impact 2.7.
