When collecting characters inGenshin Impact, players want to get them more than once (but less than eight times). This is because duplicate pulls yield an item calledStella Fortuna. It’s used to enhance the unit’s ability via Constellation. After obtaining six duplicates, these characters are calledC6, which means they have the maximum number of Constellations.

Some characters enter a whole new tier when they’re maxed, while some others remain mediocre. Of course, among thebest C6 units inGenshin Impact, many 5-star characters will rank right at the top. In this article, Travelers can see what they’ve been missing with their premium units.
Note:The descriptions of the Constellation effects are taken directly fromGenshin Impact, just slightly abridged in places.
10Xiangling
Xiangling’s Constellation boosts her to be a deadly off-field damage dealer. She buffs her own damage with C1, C4, and C6. If the team has a Pyro DPS, Xiangling will also further boost their damage with her C1 and C6.
As a Pyro unit,the Star Chef can easily trigger Pyro Resonance too. Bennett would be the best pair for her because Xiangling’s Elemental Burst will snapshot Bennett’s buff.
9Xingqiu
Xingqiu doesn’t actually need Constellations to be one of thebest characters inGenshin Impact. But, with his Constellations unlocked,Xingqiu can easily become the top damage dealerwithout taking any field time.
His first Constellation increases Xingqiu’s ability in protecting the active character. His C4 also enhances this Elemental Skill’s damage. As for his second and sixth Constellation, they significantly enhance Xingqiu’s Burst damage and allow him to quickly regenerate his Energy.
8Tartaglia
Childe suffers from a major cooldown issue, making him an underrated character inGenshin Impact. However, collecting his Constellationscan change Childe into a beast. His C1 and C6 handle the cooldown problem. Meanwhile, the second and fourth Constellations significantly increase Childe’s overall DPS.
7Ganyu
This amazing archer can effortlessly deal massive damage, leading to many calling Ganyu “braindead”. She really doesn’t need any Constellation to shine, but of course, with it, she enters a whole new level.

The Adeptus' first Constellation allows her to greatly increase the entirety of her damage. Both C1 and C2 allow Ganyu to easily maintain 100% Elemental Burst uptime. As for her C4, thismakes Ganyu both an insane main DPS and a Sub-DPS.The increased damage buff from Ganyu C4 doesn’t only affect the Elemental Burst, but any damage from any character.
6Eula

Among all Physical characters,Eula is the queen. She’s amazing even at C0, but her Constellations greatly boost her damage. Eula’s C2 is the one that creates a major spike in her power, while C4 and C6 significantly increase her already-insane Elemental Burst damage.
5Kazuha
Kazuha is currently one of thebest supports inGenshin Impact. At C0, he makes the perfect support and Sub-DPS. But at full Constellations, he can take a new role. The Samurai’s C1, C2, and C4 greatly enhance his supportive ability. Meanwhile, his C6transforms Kazuha into a viable main DPS.
4Raiden Shogun
The Electro Archon has been greatly anticipated by the fans, especially by those who plan to collect all the Archons. Initially, many found her underwhelming. But now,Raiden Shogun is surprisingly a part of the meta.
At C0, Raiden is a decent support. But at C2, she became an amazing Sub-DPS. Meanwhile, both Raiden’s C4 and C6 enhance her supportive abilities, making her a better support than she already was.
3Hu Tao
Hu Tao’s C1 is one of the most sought-after Constellations inGenshin Impactas it enormously boosts her overall DPS. Her C2 also increases her damage, although to a lesser extent than her C1. However, the second Constellation indirectly allows Hu Tao’s C4 to function better.
12% Crit Rate may seem small, but this can stack with her Passive, which grants another 12%. This means, when Hu Tao is on cooldown, the player’s whole party will enjoy a 24% extra Crit Rate.
As for her C6, it practicallyallows Hu Tao to be immortal on the field. After dropping to critical HP, players can simply use her Elemental Burst to bring Hu Tao back on her feet.
2Zhongli
As a shield support, Zhongli is practically useless in co-op. Luckily, he’s viable for co-op after obtaining his C2. Unlike other characters, both Zhongli’s C4 and C6 fully enhance his supportive skills as well. With the last Constellation,the Geo Archon even became a minor healer.
1Xiao
When it comes to Constellation, Xiao is probably one of the few that has disappointing enhancements. The Adeptus' C2 and C4 are far from the best.
His C2 is unnecessary as most would swap to Xiao to absorb Elemental Particles on the field. Meanwhile, Xiao’s C4 enhances his defense. This is also not required as Xiao needs to be played with a healer anyway.

Luckily,Xiao has a crazy C6. With it, players can endlessly spam his Elemental Skill every time they use his Plunge Attack. With a fast internet and a faster finger, this Constellation can wreak havoc on the battlefield.
Genshin Impactis now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
