Overview
- Effective team compositions in Genshin Impact hinge on understanding elemental reactions.
- The top team in the recent DPR Cup competition showcased Hu Tao as the primary DPS character.
- Xilonen has emerged as a pivotal character, enhancing the viability of Geo elements within the game.
A recently held competition within the Genshin Impact community challenged players to create the fastest team to defeat a formidable enemy. Players have the opportunity to select from up to four characters as they strategize against a variety of foes. With the character roster nearing 100, the combinations available to players are virtually limitless.
When forming an effective team, one crucial element for players to consider is the interactions between different elements, known as elemental reactions. These reactions can provide significant damage boosts or advantageous battlefield effects, but not all combinations yield productive outcomes.
Genshin Impact DPS Competition Results Unveiled
The Chinese ‘DPR Cup’ is back, this time featuring old characters! How fast can whaled characters get through 9.26m HP? by u/tracer4b in Genshin_Impact
A recent Reddit post by user tracer4b shared insightful results from the latest edition of the DPR Cup, a competition popular among Chinese players. Participants were required to form a team and combat the challenging Potapo’s Solidarity boss, which boasts an impressive 9.2 million health points. Notably, the rules stipulated that only older DPS characters could be utilized, with recent additions like Neuvillette, Arlecchino, and Chasca being excluded from participation. However, established support roles were filled by characters such as Kazuha, Yelan, and Furina, while Hu Tao dominated as the main DPS. This winning team remarkably defeated the boss in just 13 seconds, achieving an astounding average damage output of 712,000 per second.
Interestingly, the team that secured second place featured Bennett, a four-star character, in the main DPS role. Bennett’s outstanding performance reinforces his reputation as one of the game’s most effective four-star characters. This team also included similar support characters as the third-place team, which comprised of the beloved character Diluc from Mondstadt—a classic five-star contender from the Standard Banner.
In the fourth position, Ayaka emerged as the primary DPS character for her team. Known for her exceptional elemental DPS capabilities, she has long been a favorite among players. However, the evolving meta, influenced by the introduction of the Dendro element, has diminished her standing alongside other Cryo characters.
It’s worth noting that each of the top eight teams incorporated the newly-released Geo character, Xilonen. Many players believe that her unique kit has revitalized the Geo element, providing flexibility and effectiveness not previously seen. Enthusiasts are eager for future updates that might introduce a Cryo character capable of similar enhancements, thereby boosting the element’s overall popularity and viability.
