Genshin Impact Luna II Tier List
Our Tier List for Genshin Impact organises characters into 3 roles. A Main DPS, Sub DPS and Support. Click their icons to open a characters build guide!
Some characters rank in our Tier List multiple times where they can fit multiple roles, for example Raiden Shogun who can be a Main DPS, Sub DPS and Support. Many support characters do have the ability to provide off-field damage or apply an element however if there is a significant difference then they have been omitted.
Tier lists can be great for showing a rough estimate of a character's performance relative to other characters in their role. Please know that every character in Genshin Impact is viable regardless of their ranking and can clear all content with enough investment. Make sure to pick the character you like and want over the character that performs better!
Genshin Impact Luna II Tier List Changes and Additions
Below are the most recent changes to our tier list which is the changes in patch Luna II which focuses on the release of Nefer and the Addition of Manekin/ Manekina.
| Character | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Nefer | Nefer is a powerful new Dendro Main DPS released this patch even with the last-minute changes made which makes her one of the strongest DPS available in the game. As with other recent DPS releases, Nefer's performance is closely tied to her dedicated support Lauma however a little less so compared to the likes of Flins or Skirk. Any players who did not pull Lauma but do want Nefer can see similar performance at C1 or R1 instead. Nefer's "best" team currently does not feature a dedicated sustain unit, instead opting for Nahida on Prototype Amber but even without this cursed setup Nefer is still more than powerful enough. |
| Manekin | Manekin/Manekina is unexpectedly in D-Tier. The Manekin cannot be played in endgame content, does incredibly low damage and has their element tied to your Traveler making them harder to build if you want to focus on a specific element. |
Tier List Explanations and Ranking Criteria
Our Tier List for Genshin Impact groups characters as either a Main DPS, Sub DPS or a support.
- Main DPS: A character who spends the majority of their time on-field in the team to deal massive damage.
- Sub DPS: Characters that have good elemental application to create Elemental Reactions for the team or deal high amounts of damage while off-field.
- Support: Healers, Shielders and buffers. These characters may also deal some damage while off-field but their value lies in the supportive utility they give the party.
Characters are then ranked in their respective role based on D to S+ rankings based on their damage, ease of play, elemental application, buffs they provide to the team and how widely used they are.
Characters in the same tier are simply in alphabetical order and generally speaking it is pointless to compare characters in the same tier due to them rarely overlapping directly in roles and having different elements that allow them to be more or less suitable based on the fight.
