Genshin Impact Lantern Rite: Unveil the Allure of Four-Star Revelers

Choosing Your Ideal Four-Star in Genshin Impact's Lantern Rite Event

The Lantern Rite event presents a fantastic opportunity to acquire a coveted four-star character or boost an existing one's constellations. Prioritize obtaining a character you lack or need constellations for. However, if your roster is well-stocked, consider these recommendations:

The standout choice this year is the newly introduced four-star, Lan Yan. This Anemo shielder enhances survivability in teams needing it without relying on healing, proving invaluable alongside characters like Hu Tao and Arlecchino. Her Anemo application and synergy with the Viridescent Venerer artifact set further bolster her value. Many players will lack her, making her a highly desirable addition. Constellation two significantly upgrades her shield regeneration, making her even more robust.

If you're aiming for Arlecchino or Clorinde during their banner events, you'll have additional chances to acquire Lan Yan. Securing her second constellation is a significant upgrade.

Beyond Lan Yan, top contenders include Xingqiu, Xiangling, and Yaoyao. Yaoyao, a powerful Dendro healer, consistently keeps your team's health topped off. Her skill heals the active character while also damaging enemies, and her burst heals the entire party. She's a perfect fit for Bloom, Hyperbloom, Aggravate, Spread, and even Burning teams. Remarkably, she's fully functional at Constellation Zero, eliminating the need for additional copies.

Xingqiu and Xiangling are established top-tier four-star characters. If you lack either, they are exceptional choices. Xingqiu, a superb sub-DPS unit, inflicts substantial Hydro damage, making him crucial in Freeze and Vaporize teams. He also offers damage reduction and minor healing. His final constellation dramatically increases his power.

Xiangling, another top-tier sub-DPS (Pyro), unleashes a powerful pyronado that deals significant damage and applies Pyro for reactions. While many players obtain her from Spiral Abyss floor 5, her constellations significantly enhance her abilities. Constellation four is particularly impactful, extending her burst duration by 40%, transforming her from strong to exceptionally powerful.

If you already possess these characters, focus on obtaining constellations for any other four-star characters you desire. Don't waste this chance to strengthen your existing team!
