You only feel like hes strong because you haven't even felt how strong other actual good supports are. His ult only deals around 40k, while my xq deals a total of 20-30k per 5 seconds off field, and he has no problem with energy. Also, another reason why u might like is ult is cause his ult is easy to do big damage. But once you actually build other characters, you start to feel how underwhelming his dmg is.

    Except the problem is that everything he can do *as a support* can be done better by someone else.
    Shielding? Diona does that while also providing Cryo, doing more damage, and taking less time to apply the shield. Similar shield HP too. Xinyan also provides a shield that deals damage while it's active *and* cleanses statuses.
    Being a battery? Zhongli barely provides energy, and it's extremely inconsistent, so he's not good in that regard. If you want a Geo battery for Ningguang, run Geo MC, they provide more energy
    Burst/Sub DPS? Ningguang does more damage with just her bursts than Zhongli does. Bennet's burst damage is good *and* provides buffs and healing. Xiangling does more damage with her burst and can do Pyro procs.
    The only actually unique thing that Zhongli provides is Petrify, which is super short and less useful than Freeze. I love Zhongli, but he is *not* as good as this video claims he is. He is outclassed in every field by 4-star supports.

      His constellations seem good but honestly he is perfectly good without them, his c1 just gives him another pillar, not really that great. His c2 only matters when you are in co-op and when the hell are you gonna have trouble in co-op? His c4 increased Q range (not needed at all) and increases his petrify duration which is pointless because you only use petrify to tank enemy hits and create distance and you can increases his duration just by talent level up.
      Finally his c6, although some people will look at its effect and say that it’s op, they don’t look at the scaling. The characters can only be healed by a cap of 8% of their max HP (not zhongli’s) that is really small. Especially when you’re not even supposed to run him as a healer, it’s just an icing on top for the memes. If I have my Childe at 20k HP then he would only be healed by a maximum of 1.6k which is amateur numbers.

    The issue is not that he is bad, it is that his CONSTELLATIONS make him decent. Which is VERY BAD for a 5 star character.
    A 5 star should be a decent unit at the very start, not require C1 to be useful.
    1. Elemental particles are totally at random
    2. Geo has ZERO elemental interactions, and Petrify does not cause burst on hit like in the beta.
    3. His dash attack hits once despite being multiple spears (basically it is just Xiangling's dash attack)
    4. His shield is BAD outside of C6. Even if you try to keep it up, it does not heal nor does it generate particles. Making it genuinely worse than C1 Noelle, a unit you are guarenteed to at least have at C0.
    5. You need C1 for his pillars to be useful if you do not have Ningguang or Geo Traveler (granted, not that bad).
    We are not saying he is a bad unit. We are saying that he is not worth $40-$360 (based on pity rolls) at C0.

    Constellations just give him a "little bit" of healing and utility. Constellations: C2:Ult gives him another Jade shield(No downtime on E shield), C4: 20%AOE and +2s of Petrification to Q (Base duration 3.1s), C6: Gives Jade Shield Healing(40% incoming damage) Basically removes need for a healer and changes his role of solely shielding and CC to that and healer.
    C6 Zhongli is not just "a little bit better", so much of his power is locked behind constellations. And alot of resources need to be used to make him an ok 5-Star compared to the rest.
    Up until Venti, 5 Stars Constellations did not change their overall identity and insanely stronger than C0, since Klee, Childe and now Zhongli, more and more power is being locked behind Constellations(Paywall). All I want is for them to make him a character with 5 Star Power at C0 and isn't overshined by Free 4Stars, whether a 5Star Support or DPS, either is fine. Just make him a proper 5 Star. #JusticeforZhongli

    The meta for this game is damage. Every late game activity is on a timer and you need to do as much damage as possible. If we ever get some survival mode, Zhongli would be one of the best units. But as of now, his kit does not increase your main carry's DPS, and he doesn't have better DPS than even some 4 stars. He is a great tank, but tanking doesn't do much when you have 3 minutes to beat Spiral Abyss 12 for the 3 star score.
    You mentioned he can generate energy from the pulses on his E. There have been people who tested the consistency of this and it's pretty much RNG. Sometimes you get 3 energy in a row and other times it will pulse 4 for five times and hit enemies but no energy appears.
    Totally agree that he is a great tank and the petrify is great CC. But pulsing pillars is a marginal increase in DPS and this game's meta right now is all about Burst damage and Damage Per Second. His unique role does not fit the meta and until we get a endurance run mode, he'll be considered the worst 5 star in the game.

    Zhongli is not a massively bad character, but he is by far the worst 5 Star.
    So first off his auto attack is about Xianling level, which is kinda disappointing for a 5 star unit, but understandable since his abilities should make him a support type character, right?
    Not really. His E is absolute dogshit. It does very little damage, which makes it's synergy with other Geo constructs also really bad, the energy generation is complete RNG and you often end up getting no energy for multiple instances of damage and the LOS block is very niche and not that efficient, since the pillar is very thin and Ningguang and Geo MC do the same, but way better.
    The Shield on his E is also not very strong. With 20000 hp, which is about the number you can expect with a fully upgraded 5 Star Flower and a Lv 90 Zhongli, you only get around 5500 Shield Hp. That is almost nothing. Tankiness is his best attribute, but only he himself is tanky. He doesn't provide much of it to his teammates. On top of that even when you hold E for the shield, you don't get guaranteed energy particles and it has a really long cooldown.
    Lastly his ult is probably the best thing about him, but it doesn't carry the rest of his kit enough. It does some decent damage on large groups of enemies, but Ningguang is the better burst support so that's not the best selling point here. The kicker is the petrification and what does petrifying your enemies do? It stuns them for 3-4 seconds. That's it. That is all there is to it. No buff/debuff like in the beta, which made him a really nice supporter for Geo comps, no nothing. They can't deal damage for 3-4 seconds with 1 second already used to finish his animation. Venti also makes enemies unable to attack, but for way longer and with a huge CC effect on top and he can fuel his own ult, while Zhongli needs some sort of battery comp build around him, because his E doesn't generate nearly enough emergy particles.
    And i know that Venti was an accident in Mihoyos part and they don't want to powercreep their game very fast, but Venti is the Anemo Archon. He is basically a god and Zhongli is the Geo archon, canonically the strongest of all archons so it would make sense to make him about as strong as Venti. They don't need to make him stronger or even exactly as strong, but around Venti's powerlevel would make sense for Zhongli.
    And even if they don't want that, at least make him good at what he does. Give him back the Geo buff on his ult and buff his E. It's bad regardless if you hold or just press it. That's not much to ask, given how powerful most 5 stars and a whole lot of 4 stars are.

      Xiangling is a 4 star hero. Jean is a better DPS, if you build her that way and she is a support.
      1000% damage is only at level 12 for his ult and that requires so much investment and tons of resources.
      Lastly his shield couldn't be further away from amazing. 5500 HP is 1-2 hits at max and it doesn't even generate energy reliably.
      Tectone is a whale so of course he thinks Zhongli is strong, because every character in the game can be really strong with enough investment.
      For the average person however it's not worth pulling for him, since he requires the most investment out of all 5 stars to get some value out of him.

    remember this guys. ningguang is also geo support but can out dps any 5* character in the game. if u gonna say she's a dps, remember she deploys jade screen to block projectiles and drop shield fragments that can withstand a portion of incoming dmg and increases attack from that particular element at the same time. with the use of only prototype malice, she can stand alone even w/o the geo resonance. unlike zhongli, he's doable if he's c6 for both dps or support. but what for c0? instant support role and cannot be a dps. with the crescent pike and prototype grudge only available for him to be a dps/support as a f2p, the dps role is out of his league. on the trailer from miyoho, he was a dps equipped with the vortex vanquisher (and the effects of the weapon only applies to him alone and saying it *increases enormous damge* from the trailer). now if u think of this, if he's a support, where are the other characters he's supposed to be supporting with from the trailer? solo right? unlike venti's trailer, there are other characters around him and synergize with any element, meaning he's a support. zhonglis trailer is misleading tbh. now, support characters such as barbara, sucrose, xingqiu, bennett, and noelle, can be a better dps or support than zhongli even with c0. because of this, zhongli's potential is lock behind constellations and u cannot deny this. for f2p players, he's stuck on the support role from early to late game. i really hate to compare them and i do like zhongli but it really hurts. like 4* characters are better than zhongli currently even u build him right. if u guys gonna ask if i have zhongli, the answer is yes and he's lv80 c0.

    I really love zhongli, i don't think he's that bad as a character, he has a great ulti and a good shield. BUT there are some factors that make him not worth it for F2P that's why he is considered bad, i get it that you have infinite amount of resources, but f2p have to really think about the best choice and a character who has % atk hits lower than Xiangling, a def good ulti that other than a good dmg and 4s freeze doesn't give anything else(if they kept at least his 2ndary eff that would've been MUCH better), his shield is good but his single pillar is not that good(you need a supp). When you think about Zhongli you can see a beautiful character that needs A LOT of resources to work properly: Really good and specific artifacts, C1 at least, 5* spear.
    Whereas other characters don't need this much resources to FEEL strong and do thei job good enough. He just feels like a 4*, and there are 4* that work BETTER than him in a team, considering elemental reaction and stuff

    with his e he can't generate elemental particales consistently, the particles are random generated so if u are unlucky u don't get a particles for like 10 sec straight. His E does very very low dmg. His shield can't tank more than 1 hit on abyss floor 12. He can't break fatui shields. He can't add dmg with elemental reactions. Being Tank is useless in abyss, even if u can't die if u can't kill enemies fast enough u fail. If u compare this to Mona or any other 5 star support character he is just the worst. Change my mind.

      If you compare him to mona? Wait a sec. Mona? Did you forget how many player said mona is bad at version 1.0? They don't understand mona until very much later. And bennet, how many of you use bennet at the beginning, so is xing qiu. And venti, how many of you give venti dps set at the beginning, expecting venti will kill all the enemies with his super big tornado. Now can you compare venti with mona or xingqiu or bennet? No, same support role but different utility.

      @@paulsutanto9471 You are not giving me a good reason why zhongli is good. You are saying wait someone maybe will understand why he is good. But he has a very simple kit, so i don't think he is so difficult to understand. He just has very weak numbers, a weak element and a weak concept (tank are bad as concept in this game because in abyss even if u are super tanky u'll lose because timer will go to zero).

      which 4 star has a better shield, more burst damage, has CC and eliminates stagger?
      i do think his E is bugged tho. his E and fischl's E do the same kind of damage so it doesnt make sense that his E would have different energy generation mechanics.

      @@sagniksarkar2471 Yeah, his E has been tested by JinJinx and Tuner [Mathalos Gaming] on CZcams you can search his channel to watch the video.
      They did a pretty comprehensive test and found no way to consistently generate energy. They tried everything from:
      -Just the Stone Stelle while it damages enemies
      -Standing withun the Stone Stelle pulse radius as it damages enemies
      -Using the shield function
      -Having a shield while inside the Stone Stelle's pulse radius as it damages enemies
      -Creating Crystallize reactions while the Stone Stelle damages enemies
      -Having a shield while creating Crystallize reactions while the Stone Stelle damages enemies
      -Having a shield while creating Crystallize reactions while standing within the Stone Stelle as it damages enemies
      -Having 1 extra Geo Construct with a Stone Stelle
      -Having 2 extra Geo Constructs with a Stone Stelle
      Results? RNG. They would literally have periods where no orbs would come out, then randomly get a few orbs here and there. Or sometimes it would be a chain and then absolutely nothing under the same exact conditions.
