Who should I pair with Zhongli?

Who Should You Pair with Zhongli in Genshin Impact?

Zhongli, a powerful shield/super team support, offers unparalleled defenses and Elemental skill. Building a team with him means you need players who not only benefit from his supporting abilities but also contribute significant damage output to the equation. In this article, we’ll cover the optimal pairings and recommendations to maximize Zhongli’s potential.

Albedo and Zhongli

Recommended
This pair is considered optimal, making them the recommended pairing.

  • Pros: Powerful damage output through elemental burst and skill reactions
  • Cons: Vulnerability to Pyro reactions against enemies with Cryo-related abilities

In this collaboration, Albedo and Zhongli unleash devastating combination attacks, bolstered by Zhongli’s shield and elemental skill enhancement. Keep in mind the Pyro-Cryo interplay challenge, as vulnerable characters won’t perform at their highest level.

Hu Tao and Zhongli
Good option
Excellent synergy with similar roles.

  • Pros: Energetic combos and AoE damage boosts from their elemental skills and bursts, respectively
  • Cons: High aggression might disrupt Zhongli’s damage absorption

A classic tag-team effort, Hu Tao and Zhongli’s synergies revolve around applying and refreshing Pyro-cells. High-aggressiveness can expose your pair to counter-attacks or disrupt Zhongli’s damage absorption abilities. Employ strategic positioning to maintain overall team effectiveness.
