Updated:
27 May 2024

Every character in Genshin Impact is very powerful and useful on its own. However, some characters perform better when used for a certain Role. In this guide, we will rank the best Characters that perform well in the Main DPS Role. Main DPS characters are characters that can provide consistent damage output and can also deal massive bursting damage with their kits.

 

Here are the ranks we used:

  • OP = characters that are broken (in a positive way) in the current version
  • S = top-performing Main DPS characters
  • A = good Main DPS characters that can provide significant amounts of damage
  • B = pretty decent as a Main DPS, but they can be outperformed by others for this role
  • C = can be used as a Main DPS but is probably better for other roles
