Choosing Your Ideal Four-Star in Genshin Impact's Lantern Rite Event
The Lantern Rite event presents a valuable opportunity to acquire a coveted four-star character or boost an existing one's constellations. If you have a favorite character needing constellations, the choice is clear. However, if you're undecided, let's explore some top recommendations.
For many players, the standout choice is the newly introduced four-star, Lan Yan. This Anemo shielder enhances survivability in teams needing defense without healing, such as those featuring Hu Tao or Arlecchino. Her synergy with the Viridescent Venerer artifact set further boosts her damage potential. Since she's a new character, most players will lack her, making her a highly desirable pick. Her second constellation significantly upgrades her shield regeneration, making her even more potent.
While wishing for powerful five-star DPS units like Arlecchino or Clorinde, you might also acquire Lan Yan constellations.
Beyond Lan Yan, Xingqiu, Xiangling, and Yaoyao stand out as excellent four-star options. Yaoyao, a powerful Dendro healer, consistently replenishes your team's health. While her skill heals only the active character, it also damages enemies. Her burst heals the entire team, making her ideal for Bloom, Hyperbloom, Aggravate, Spread, or Burning team compositions. Remarkably, she's highly effective even at Constellation Zero.
Xingqiu and Xiangling are established top-tier four-star units. If you lack either, they're exceptional choices. Xingqiu is a remarkable sub-DPS, inflicting substantial Hydro damage and enabling freeze and vape team compositions. He also provides damage reduction and minor healing. His final constellation elevates his capabilities.
Xiangling, a Pyro sub-DPS, unleashes a devastating pyronado, inflicting significant Pyro damage for potent reactions. While players obtain a copy through Spiral Abyss floor 5, her constellations significantly enhance her power. Constellation four, in particular, extends her burst duration by 40%, transforming her from strong to exceptionally powerful.
If you already possess these characters, prioritize acquiring constellations for any remaining four-star characters you desire. Don't miss this chance to strengthen your roster!
