Best Sword Users in Genshin Impact

Published by

Here is a list of the Best Sword users in Genshin Impact. The best sword users are either great DPS characters or best supports.

Genshin Impact features a variety of distinct, flashy, and engaging combat styles. It’s one of several features used by open-world gacha games to entice and keep players’ attention in between updates. The One-Handed Sword is the most common weapon type, with the One-Handed Sword affecting the most characters in the game. The other weapon kinds only have nine or ten characters to pick from, however, the Sword has twelve.

However, this means that some units will simply outperform others in terms of damage capability and viability in various team configurations. When it comes to One-Handed Sword users in Genshin Impact, certain options are better than others, as well as where they belong in terms of team structure and role.

Kazuha

Venti was the undisputed master of Anemo swirl damage and utility before Kazuha arrived. However, it didn’t take long for Genshin Impact fans to discover that this crown had been snatched without a fight after Kazuha’s release. Kazuha’s kit is a cross between Venti and Xiao, since he can pull enemies together while also propelling himself into the air for devastating Plunged attacks. As a powerful buffer, he can fit into any team setup.

Xingqiu

Despite being a four-star character, Xingqiu is regarded as Genshin Impact’s strongest swordsman. He is the game’s most reliable Hydro support/sub DPS, capable of using Hydro element for extremely devastating elemental reactions like Vaporize. He can also heal and reduce damage incurred while off the field. Xingqiu is the top character on this list since pyro reactions are currently the best DPS tool in the game.

Bennett

The unluckiest kid in Mondstadt may have a hard time finding companions, but when it comes to the Spiral Abyss, the Pyro 4-star is a popular choice among players. Bennett’s most significant position is Burst Support, which allows him to maximize the dual buffs from his Burst while still dealing damage. Bennett’s cheap-cost long-duration Burst’s healing scales with his high base HP, and his Skill’s particle creation and low cooldown make him mostly self-sufficient. Bennett can keep his field active near-constantly with a good amount of Energy Recharge, reliably helping Benny’s Adventure Team.

Ayaka

Ayaka is another Genshin Impact character who got a lot of attention in the run-up to her debut. She does not disappoint, as she is the single most powerful One-Handed Sword user in the game, as well as one of the most powerful Cryo characters.

In compositions featuring Hydro characters or enemies with Hydro shields, Ayaka’s dash imbues her sword with Cryo, allowing her to permanently freeze enemies. Her Elemental Burst is extremely powerful, capable of annihilating even boss opponents in a single rotation.

Albedo

Albedo is a fantastic Sub-DPS unit and one of Genshin Impact’s best Geo units. Many fans were apprehensive of how good he’d turn out to be at first, but Albedo has earned a slot in certain team compositions as well as many fans’ hearts, especially with the more recent Geo releases.

A Triple-Geo combination, which uses both Itto and Gorou alongside him, is one of Albedo’s greatest, although there are solutions for players who still want to use elemental reactions. He can be teamed with Hu Tao and Xinigqiu, for example, to increase her survival.

Jean

While she is competent in every role, she is at best mediocre in all of them. Jean has the ability to heal, support, harm, cleanse, and control crowds. While Jean’s crowd control is innovative and entertaining, she falls short of Venti, Kazuha, and Sucrose. She’s also not as good at triggering Swirl as the other Anemo users.

Jean’s most helpful ability is without a doubt healing. Her Elemental Burst, on the other hand, does very little damage because it is intended for healing and cleansing. It also necessitates a lot of energy, therefore she primarily relies on field time to recuperate.

Qiqi

In principle, Qiqi from is a very charming and interesting character, but her gameplay doesn’t make her as viable as Barbara and Kokomi, the other devoted healers in Genshin Impact.

When Qiqi is on the field and aggressively dealing damage, she can heal her party members, but her numbers aren’t high enough to justify this. Other healers, such as Barbara and Kokomi, can heal even while they’re not on the field, making it difficult for Qiqi to keep up.

Keqing

Keqing’s combat style is interesting. Her attacks all have a special movement that allows her to flash around the battlefield. She can easily launch or dodge attacks by blinking. Unfortunately, she has Electro vision, which has a tremendous impact on her damage. Most players build Keqing as a Physical DPS because of this. While it works for C0 Keqing, Electro is a better build after players have her Constellations. Sadly, even with several Constellations, Keqing’s performance remains disappointing.

Kaeya

Kaeya is an excellent DPS and support. He has the strongest Normal Attack scaling among all sword users as a DPS. His Cryo vision is a bonus to his scaling, as it allows him to readily use Superconduct. Kaeya, on the other hand, is an excellent support character for any fighter who requires close-range Cryo application. His Elemental Skill also generates a large number of Elemental Particles, making him a good battery.

Traveller

The Traveler has access to three separate elements as of early 2022, which correspond to the three currently opened regions. Anemo represents Mondstadt, Geo represents Liyue, and Electro represents Inazuma.

None of these characteristics distinguish the Traveler as a unique or powerful character in Genshin Impact. Hopefully, subsequent elements or possibly a buff will allow Lumine and Aether to see more action.
