The Best Geo Characters to Build in Genshin Impact

screenrant.com:

With the growing expectations of a new Geo meta in Genshin Impact, players may be wondering which Geo characters are the best to invest in. The new canine warrior Gorou is coming with abilities that allow the strength of the team to scale depending on how many Geo members are in the party. The increasing amount of Geo characters being added to the game means players may want to try building more of their Geo units.

Geo characters are often great choices for providing defense and attack to a team, with consistent support and Sub-DPS capabilities. As of now, there are currently eight Geo units in Genshin Impact. This includes Noelle, Ningguang, Gorou, Yun Jin, Albedo, Arataki Itto, Zhongli, and the Geo Traveller. When Genshin Impact players choose their team, they can pick Geo characters for passive buffs and other advantages they can gain in battles. However, choosing the best Geo Character in Genshin Impact can be confusing as it involves picking from eight valuable candidates.

Zhongli is one of the best Geo characters inGenshin Impact, and possibly one of the strongest Support and Sup-DPS units in general. Zhongli’s Elemental Skill creates a construct that deals a burst of AoE Geo DMG, and creates a shield for the player that scales off of his Max HP. This construct also drains Geo from enemies, destroying enemy shields with ease. His Elemental Burst summons a meteor that crashes onto the battlefield, dealing enormous Geo DMG and freezing all enemies for a period of time.

Zhongli has both massive damage capabilities and the strongest shield in Genshin Impact, meaning players who have Zhongli will often be able to avoid taking damage in fights altogether.
