Which Four-Star To Choose in Lantern Rite Genshin Impact

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

Selecting the perfect four-star character during Genshin Impact's Lantern Rite event is a crucial decision, whether you're a seasoned player or just beginning your adventure. Prioritize obtaining characters you lack or need constellations for. If your roster is complete, consider these recommendations:

The standout choice this year is the newly introduced four-star, Lan Yan. This Anemo shielder enhances survivability for teams needing defense without healing, such as those featuring Hu Tao or Arlecchino. Her Anemo application synergizes well with the Viridescent Venerer artifact set for resistance shredding. Her potential is significant, especially considering most players will not yet possess her. Acquiring her second constellation further boosts her capabilities, enabling shield regeneration through normal attacks.

While summoning for powerful five-star DPS units like Arlecchino or Clorinde, you might also acquire Lan Yan constellations.

Other excellent four-star options include Xingqiu, Xiangling, and Yaoyao. Yaoyao, a potent Dendro healer, keeps your team's health consistently high. Her skill heals the active character while also damaging foes, and her burst provides team-wide healing. She's a valuable asset for various team compositions (Bloom, Hyperbloom, Aggravate, Spread, Burning), and remarkably effective even at Constellation Zero.

Xingqiu and Xiangling are considered among the best four-star characters in the game. If you're missing either, they're exceptional choices. Xingqiu, a superb sub-DPS, inflicts substantial Hydro damage, making him ideal for Freeze and Vaporize teams. He also offers damage reduction and minor healing. His final constellation significantly amplifies his power.

Xiangling, another top-tier sub-DPS (Pyro), unleashes a damaging Pyro-infused pyronado. While many players obtain her through Spiral Abyss floor 5, her constellations dramatically increase her effectiveness. Constellation four, in particular, extends her burst duration by 40%, transforming her from strong to exceptionally powerful.

If you already own these characters, focus on obtaining constellations for any remaining four-star characters offered in the event. Don't miss this opportunity to strengthen your existing team!
