In Genshin a character's element tells you what they can do, and their weapon tells you which upgrades will make them stronger. Elemental reactions sit at the heart of the damage system, so look at elements first when you build a team.
Every character in the list carries rarity and element badges. Before deciding who to pull for, look through the roster, then build your own ranking with the tier list maker.
The one that fills your team's gap. If you already have a main DPS, a matching support plus a shielder or healer helps more than upgrading a second damage dealer.
The roster is rebuilt with each version update. Characters that have been announced but are not out yet appear separately.
