Genshin Impact Characters: The Definitive Tier List for Rerolling
Starting your journey in Teyvat with the right character is the single most important decision a new player can make. While manual rerolling is a tedious process, securing a powerful Genshin Impact reroll account is the fastest way to guarantee a strong start.
This definitive Genshin Reroll Tier List is designed specifically for new players looking to maximize their early-game power and long-term account value, based on the current Version 6.1 meta. We prioritize characters who are versatile, powerful at low investment (C0), and provide unique utility that makes the game easier.
S-Tier: The Game-Changers (Highest Reroll Priority)
These characters are the absolute best choices for a Genshin Reroll. They offer unparalleled power, utility, or comfort that fundamentally changes the difficulty of the game.

B-Tier: Viable & Niche (Situational Reroll)
These characters are perfectly capable of clearing all content but are generally less efficient or require more specific team compositions and higher investment to reach their full potential.
- Xiao: A strong Anemo Main DPS, but requires a dedicated battery and shielder (like Zhongli) to function optimally.
- Wriothesley: A solid Cryo Main DPS, but his teams are less dominant in the current meta compared to Hydro or Dendro reactions.
- Eula: A powerful Physical DPS, but the current meta heavily favors elemental reactions, making her a niche pick that requires high investment.
FAQs: Rerolling and Tier Lists
Q1: Should I reroll for a Main DPS or a Support character?
A: For a new player, a Support character like Zhongli or Kazuha provides more long-term value. A strong support can elevate any 4-star DPS character, while a strong DPS still needs good supports to function. However, a low-investment DPS like Neuvillette is also an excellent choice for immediate gratification.
Q2: Why are some popular characters ranked lower?
A: This list is based on Reroll Priority for a new account (C0, low resources). Characters like Diluc or Keqing (Standard Banner 5-stars) are ranked lower because they can be obtained at any time, and their power level is generally lower than the limited-banner S-Tier characters.
Q3: Is it worth rerolling for a 4-star character?
A: No. While 4-star characters like Bennett and Xiangling are SS-Tier in performance, they are much easier to acquire over time. You should prioritize a powerful 5-star and let the 4-stars come naturally. The exception is if a top-tier 4-star is featured on a banner with an S-Tier 5-star.
Q4: How long does a reroll take?
A: A single reroll attempt takes approximately 30-40 minutes to reach the point where you can make your first wishes. This is why purchasing a Genshin Impact starter account is the recommended, time-saving alternative.
