A good chunk of my music is done by @tnbee www.youtube.com/@tnbee/videos they make awesome covers of hoyoverse music! check them out!
A lot of information in general I learn from theorycrafters and creators such as Zajef77 / @zajef77 , The Genshin Scientist / @thegenshinscientist , Jamie / @jamiekb9v , Jstern25 / @jstern25 , Flip / @fliponyt Thundah www.youtube.com/@Thundah090/v... and of course KQM keqingmains.com/ . If I ever directly lift any specific info from any of them specificially I will additionally credit with a shoutout in the video or first part of description. I always do my own extensive testing of course, but often these guys create a baseline that every creator starts at, and most of us wouldn't be able to do what we do to the level we do it without these guys creating a foundation. If you think anyone else should be credited here, let me know and I'd love to add them.

After reading some comments, I would move sayu to S-, Raiden to B, Dehya and Razor to A. And yes lisa is a joke because ara ara climbing :)
Why venti is not S I will never know 😭
I'm thinking that maybe you need an extra tier to split A into two groups, one will more useful overworld abilities (where the claymore guys would go) and one that are just overall powerful characters (where alhaitham ,ayato etc).
Dont forget mika needs to go into specialist , even if he's possibly the worst because of his monstadt speciality map show :)
Dehya and Razor I haven't used, but hard agree about Sayu and Raiden! Nahida and Raiden also make a really great overworld combination by enabling sniper Nahida, which is both extremely useful for clearing groups of smaller enemies (most hilichurls and other normal enemies get 1-shotted simultaneously if you use Raiden's skill before Nahida's, which can be done from range) AND absolutely hilarious. I almost never use Raiden's burst in the overworld unless I'm fighting groups of elites, but the elemental application from her skill (especially if your team includes anyone Dendro, or to swirl with Kazuha like you mentioned as being one of Bennett's pros) has a lot of utility.
I think you're undervaluing Ayaka and Mona's special sprints, though, for both their speed and their ability to sprint across pretty sizeable stretches of water. (You mentioned ice bridging with Ayaka, but I've found that really difficult to do with her in practice, so I'd put their sprints on par for their utility) They're also much easier to control while sprinting than Sayu, Yelan, etc. are while using their skills, and don't run into the same issue with obstacles that can't be sprinted over - Mona/Ayaka can just pop up from their sprint, hop over the obstacle, and then go right back to sprinting without needing to wait for a cooldown. They DO still rely on stamina in that form, which Furina and Yelan don't need to worry about, but the speed and maneuverability still put them at the absolute top of S-rank for me. Mona also has the added utility of her skill providing a taunt, which is good for reducing how annoying mobs of smaller enemies can be + drawing fire from Ruin Guards when you don't have a shielder on the team.
Overall though, love the tier list, love the concept, I can't believe there aren't more of these because there really should be. The fact that you take overworld utility into consideration with every character you review is a huge part of why you're one of my favourite creators to watch. Great video!
Raizor gives 20% extra sprint stamina
Might I ask to be careful with the jokes or at least warn us in the video? I am sure I am not the only newbie around.
i would put sayu in S-tier just because of the fact that some animals, especially crystalflies, don't get startled if she's in the team, making it a lot easier to farm them
i mean, almost all things needed for overworld are consolidated in her kit. Healing, Movement, Mining (she's a claymore user), and her farming passive are all very important in the overworld.
Absolutely. And her movement skill goes faster and further than Yelan's.
I so much agree! Running after crabs, crystalflies etc is such a pain and Sayu turns them into sitting ducks.
Not to mention she is also an anemo character meaning you can run her with Kazuha and get anemo resonance.
yep I agree
My issue is after pick one, they notice you and fly away. So to me this isn’t that useful. Better to just use Yelan to get up close and it’s the same effect. IMO.
Plus she doesn’t recharge running stamina like Yelan does just pauses it. But I would say she’s better than the other A tier. If I did an A+ I’d put sayu there
"I wish we had another character besides Kazuha that can suck up drops"
Wdym Qiqi's idle is right there :)
Navia too ^^ well it's not quite as useful but it's there.
WHAT ABOUT VENTI’S BURST? It does a good job and even picks things up from off cliff edges,(just make sure to pick up the drops before they fall hehe
@@jlovesart9451Fair enough, just don't use Venti when running unless you like to hear WOULDNTGLIDINGBEFASTER?WOULDNTGLIDINGBEFASTER?WOULDNTGLIDINGBEFASTER?WOULDNTGLIDINGBEFASTER?WOULDNTGLIDINGBEFASTER?WOULDNTGLIDINGBEFASTER?
Sucrose burst also works
sucrose burst too
Ningguang should be placed on the specialities because she can locate stones.
And break them as well as any claymore user (better actually, if you have the constellation for AoE on normals).
She also makes combat easy-mode, with how fast her burst recharges, and the way it homes in on targets (abyss mage vanishes, reappears, gets hit anyway XD).
@@poplaysgames6540 she can break rocks?? i didn't know that! she's the only catalyst that does this then?
@@KoiinuNe klee can too and yanfei's charged attacks
@@KoiinuNea handful of catalysts can break rocks actually, most recent one would be Wriothesley
@@PorkyBMOBut even his is slow compared to Ning.
for furina, she herself is a healer so you dont need other healers in the overworld, u just put her into white mode and she heals enough for the team to not feel like they are going to die in 1 hit (not in weekly boos fight though)
Except the wanderer fight, where she's great to place in healer mode during the 2nd phase.
For overworld I find her healing to be plenty. It’s close to 3.5k+ a tick without even focusing on healing.
@@northerngiant2915 During her burst, maybe. Outside of it, she likely won't heal for nearly that much, unless you ignore crit stats to stack hp (which would be more of a healing focus).
Mind you, she still heals plenty for the overworld, even outside of her burst.
@x13, just checked, and she’s healing for 3,932 per tick, no hydro resonance, no burst. Crit is 73/153, skill lvl 9, 174 ER. I do run an HP goblet since it maths out pretty much even, sometimes ahead of hydro, and it just makes things easier.
@@northerngiant2915 i also just tested, my furina heals 4k per tick, without buff or hydro res, build is hp/hp/critdmg and the pipe weapon, its really good for the overworld, even tho i crowned her, 4k per tick is insane, hp goblet is better for both sub dps and healing mode because you get more damage and healing + it ticks faster with hp goblet
The top metric has to be how well a character does against Timmy's pigeons 😛
I'd watch the hell out of that tier list
Ez answer: faruzan/yelan
The real Khaenri'ah was the pidgeons we murdered along the way
actual reason why yelan is s tier
Diona is highly underrated.
Razor can be a Zhongli replacement for mining if you don't have Zhongli. His radius isn't as big as Zhongli's, but he is Claymore so he can smack the rest until the cooldown resets.
Ningguang can be used to detect ores in the Overworld.
Razor is super underrated in the overworld. Sprint stamina reduction + 2nd best Miner of Ores + ascends w/ Phys% and can kill most overworld mobs w/o his burst similar to Eula.
I like Navia and c1 Ning, personally
Razor > Zhongli for mining
Agreeing with this. I think Razor is almost strictly better than Eula for all the same reasons.
lower CD too
Gotta say, Bennet is not a great healer in over world exploration. His healing only comes from his burst, and if his burst isn’t ready because, say, the last enemies you fought died before you could land Bennet’s skill on them to recharge the burst, he just can’t heal your party until you enter combat again.
Yeah, I'd say he's only good in Dragonspine.
There's also faulty terrain, making it impossible to stay within his burst zone depending on where you are.
Agreed. Plus his pyro use is nowhere near as good as Amber's for puzzles. That was an interesting take.
Bennett is awful for overworld imo. Burst dependent, almost never recharges, enemies die too soon, and his buff is just too much.
That's why healer who heal with their skills are the GOAT
"Because of his stupid face and hat"
Bro is asking for a death sentence
(I agree)
Honestly laughed out loud at this. Encapsulates my opinion of the character quite well. They really needed to make him... not look like a kid, to be as cool as the character is supposed to be.
Yes, they need to make Wanderer as a girl, bcs Ei made puppets from herlsefl so why Scara is even a boy.
and his voice lines are annoying
Face is very silly goofy but whats wrong with the hat?
@@iforgetiamacat8348Thats the first thing that came to my mind when i heard about scara😂
Lynette also shows the healing fish when you’re underwater
Beidou is godly with her elemental skill in Inazuma when you have to solve the puzzles where the arrows point to you when electro infused.
Beidou was part of my first team when I first started playing and she made exploring Inazuma a breeze. Just cheesed so many probe and circuit puzzles with her.
This. She literally cheeses so many puzzles
Dude that brings back so much nostalgia. She was my go to for the inazuma puzzles when it first came out
Well I do wish I knew that before I 100%ed inazuma lol
For real! She should definitely go in the specialties tier.
Tbh Venti is in S tier in this category for me. Kazuha is not the only one who can suck the drops, Venti does it too. He can also make the wind elevators (in co-op it's a blessing because you can help your friends in climbing as well), he helps with your gliding stamina, his burst is unmatched for smaller and annoying enemies and it makes it so fun to play. So I really think he's underrated
Sucrose can also do that with her e
Kazuha is better because cc is skill not a burst like venti
"Kazuha's the only one" - meta slave thinking spotted.
Venti does it better (higher AOE and he kills the enemies too), also did you know Venti can raise you a tiny bit higher than Kazuha can?
Also for the movement slot Sayu is by far the best, the others don't cover multiple roles (healer, mining, butterflies).
I like the idea of an exploration tier list but this is far from perfect.
Speaking of Venti he also covers additional roles : bows are required for many puzzles and you can ride his wind current to plunge and mine repeatedly if nothing else is available, without waiting for a CD like you need to on Kazuha. He also refills energy for your characters.
I have often mined using venti like that before lol. Glad I'm not alone.
I feel like when they design Dehya's kit they made her for overworld not spiral abyss since she has a passive that regerenates health, a movement speed passive beetwen daytime also + she scales with HP.
What im saying is they made her a overworld tank character which fits her lore.
Yep quite probably, theres a few characters that you dont want to take to abyss but are MVP in overworld.
She is a tank support even for abyss, she is good enough in that role, the problem is spyral isn't that difficult to require a tank for now, btw you just need to swap on her right before the DPS and if you have hyperarmor for them and then interruption resistance after.
Dehya's A4 Passive effectively prevents her from dying to Sheer Cold in Dragonspine.
And her utility passive provides increased movement speed during the day.
100% agree. I think putting Dehya in the same tier as BARBARA for the overworld is a huge mistake.
They made her to fight underwater monsters, that passive come in clutch sometimes
any character that can do what they need to do without their burst (whether that is damage, healing, buffing) = s-tier to me
Characters with elemental infusions or healing on their skill are so comfortable in overworld for that reason, you get to do something cool without limit
I think Layla having a decent shield on her skill is golden, and her burst freezes everything if it's raining.
Mika has his speciality AND heals, you did him dirty!
Mika & Layla underrated fr
Both are good characters with QoL; I need to build my Mika someday
i ascended my Sayu to 80/90 to level her burst. started running her the day she came out. today, my sayu has leveled to 83 (and a liiiiitle over three quarters of the bar, almost 84 now) just from overworld mob exp.
catching crystalflies is never an issue for me because whenever i stumble upon them while exploring or doing quests, i can just pick them up no problems. i love that they stay (relatively) still because of sayu.
great unit. (also dehya is fun overworld! her speed passive during the daytime+double anemo lets you zoom zoom.)
It took 52 days for my Wanderer to go from level 89 no exp to level 90 just from over world exp.
If that's what you like. How about Dehya, Rosaria, Jean/Sayu, Faruzan. This should be nice and comfy.
The overworld has a strong influence over my pulling, so I was glad to see this video pop up. But I can't say this was a good tier list. There's a number of issues.
There were too many characters included in A tier that just aren't bringing much of anything.
The passives of many characters were overlooked, such as Kaeya's stamina reduction from sprinting. And Nuevillette's swimming speed boost.
Character height also deserved a mention. Character height effects movement speed. That includes running and climbing.
Razor is the second best character for mining after Zhongli, so their placements are a bit contradictory.
Puzzles and challenges weren't mentioned at all. I get that you can't make a party that can do every puzzle because of the elemental checks. (Though some elements are definitely used more than others. For example, how often do you see a puzzle that wants cryo?) But bow users deserved a mention. They are generally nicer for puzzles. Sometimes you want them for flying enemies. Sometimes there's puzzles specifically wanting a bow user. You don't get that type of thing with any other weapon type except claymore with mining. Bow users deserved as much of a mention as you gave to claymores.
Moving on to that, mining was overvalued. Weapon crystals are one of the most abundant resources in the game. They aren't often a bottleneck. I've seen old players literally max them out and have to destroy them. Mining characters are more something you pull out whenever you are specifically going to go around mining if you run out of the crystals. Razor and Zhongli belong in the specialties tier.
Healing was undervalued a little. Specifically, healing which doesn't require a burst. Its especially nice to have in areas with environmental hazards. Also, in the overworld Furina is your healer. You don't need to worry about maximizing her burst stacks. You don't need to pair a healer with her. Just use her to heal up after the fight.
You also completely missed a definite S tier unit, if someone is willing to pull a few cons for the overworld. I am referring to Baizhu. Baizhu is the only character with a team-wide skill-based heal. His passive also heals your active character some anytime you pick up most plants such as mint. His c2 makes him cast mini versions of his skill automatically when you hit enemies. And this works off field. It requires no setup. He will basically always keep your party full health and you never have to swap to him. And this passive works underwater in Fontaine. It does a little damage too, which is basically the only way to get extra damage underwater because you have to use the abilities the blue creatures give you.
I hate Lisa. Get her out of S. Meme's are dumb. She obviously doesn't belong there.
this is very detailed! i didn't know Baizhu's C2 did that! i might have to save up and pick up 2 more copies of him!
Here's someone who has actually given some thought to the overworld, instead of just throwing characters and first impressions.
Absolutely true. That Tartagia placement is just criminal, considering he's a bow user (puzzles), tall male (fastest running speed), non burst reliant (damage anytime regardless of energy). His cooldown issues are definitelly not enough to bring him down to the lowest tier, when units like Yoimiya, Hu Tao, Ayato or Alhaitham deserve from cooldowns all the same. Also Baizhu absolute S tier healer for overworld, no one comes even close to him
You're making me change my opinion on baizhu GRRRR
(thanks for all the info though omg)
Fellow Lisa hater 🤝
So happy to see Yoimiya here! Also would like to add that Yoimiya + Layla combo is such top tier spectres farming duo since most common kind tend to be hydro. Layla's star can freeze them then melt by Yoimiya while shielded.
Venti’s burst does scoop up items, and with a fav-bow it’s very easy to chain them. Add in that he has grouping, crowd control, and his traversal ability is solid. He’s actually pretty S-tier for overworld with Fav-bow, and everyone gets a free fav-bow. The biggest thing going against him is Kazuha exists, and Kazuha does it all better, and is better in abyss.
I wouldn’t suggest wishing for Venti, but he can be a huge quality-of-life upgrade for new accounts especially.
I think people sleep on Venti quite a bit. If you are going to consider the time saving from overworld travel useful, clearing abyss faster is nice too. And Venti does that for the earlier floors of the abyss. When you get to where you can clear floor 12 every time anyways, it makes sense to pull him.
@@Elrog3, I still use him on floors 9-11 99% of the time as his grouping on little guys is so OP. I have C2 Kazuha, triple crown, on the other side, but Venti C0 is no slouch for sure. Floor 12 is a different thing, but Venti saves enough time on the other floors, yeah, could still be worth it as a meta-pull from that perspective.
Venti is nice for archery challenges at least, so in teams without a bow user as one of the other characters, venti would be preferable to kazuha, although that is a very specific use case
I pulled for him in 4.1 (started at 4.0) and have no regret at all. He made overworld 10x fun!
And im not going for kazuha because its not worth to get small upgrade to venti not even talking his grouping in multi wave content
@@bumerang6525tbf "small upgrade to venti" is far from what kazuha offers in explo and combat but yea (E-ing mid air for challenges in the sky/for climbing/...)
Overworld is whoever isnt friendship level 10 yet.
Friendship card collection is the real endgame.
@@anhelaanhela4996except characters that are too bad to play, for them there's the teapot 😅
@@anhelaanhela4996 fgo's endgame for the last 7 years.
@@malvoleus I just bring them everywhere anyway and let my Wanderer carry them, lol.
Tbh I like using friendship to see what characters I use the most, so if I don't use a character i see no point in maxing friendship. But to each their own! Maybe it makes for a more diverse experience
My mining team is:
1. Zhongli
2. Ningguang (Best geologist around)
3. Yelan (travel speed)
4. Sayu (when Yelan is tired)😅
Kirara is actually good because many creature’s won’t run away/attack, including boars which can be annoying sometimes, plus she can be good for traveling over rough terrain since when in cat form she does a little hop over those annoying ledges, also she jumps higher in cat form so you can collect oculi or cheese puzzles, and her shield is good for bloom since it damages you, so having a dendro shielder is good
Agreed; I love using Kirara in overworld, she has many pros.
That A tier is chaotic 💀😅 I was like “wuuut” for about 60% of it lol!! Very nice different tier list for those that don’t enjoy the abyss
I feel like Kirara, Yaoyao and Sayu should be on a bit higher tier not only for traversal but also for farming purposes. Jello forgot to mention their passives that doesn't disturb crystalflies and animals for farmable meats. Also Freminet for less diving stamina and his NA animation is quite fast which is good for mining.
I really like Lisa. But I haven’t used her in ages. Why is she in S tier? Is it the famous climbing moan or something else?
I guess he is just a Lisa simp. (And that's perfectly fine! I would know :- )
@@schlafesbruder7625It's the meme of her climbing voice over. Especially the Japanese one.
If you know you know. No one argues there. So he also followed the same. Respect 😂
Mika also finds specialties in Mondstadt
Cloud Chicken my beloved.
Also an important detail about Baizhu, is if you build him with Sac Frags (which you should :y) he can single-handedly clear water type enemies. Which is not the most useful thing ever, but is very funny.
Along with getting 2 party heals without energy (and works away from enemies with c1, allowing up to 3 skill based quick party heals against enemies with sac; and automatically against enemies with c2). I have him c0 at the minute and he’s already the comfiest overworld healer - will defo be pulling for early constellations over time.
Have you tried nahida against hydro enemies?
@@Lassila96 Unfortunately Mihoyo said "Cloud Retainer same banner rotation as nahida xdddd" and Nahida banner said "But what if C6 Qiqi".
So no, unfortunately can't say I've tested Nahida against hydro enemies. Totally tested Kaveh tho xd
Sayu should be easy S tier IMO, with Sac Greatsword she can roll for up to 24 seconds at a time.
sac does not work without hitting enemies
@mickysaif and specifically has to be the last hit when the roll ends, no other hit can proc the passive.
Don't forget the crystal fly farming passive. Same with Yaoyao
Her rolling is slower than even repeatedly dashing as well as yelan and xianyun where xianyun basically powercrepted her healing/dashing role in overworld and crystalflies still run away after collecting them with sayu passive.
Jean's healing your whole team a little after each attack makes her a fantastic on-field unit. Very comfy cleaning up trash mobs while topping up everyone else's hp. She does a great job feeding herself particles for her burst, too, for very consistent whole-team heals.
The issue for Jean's passive healing is that it scales poorly into lategame WLs. It's amazing for a low AR account, basically keeps you full healed while exploring, but it barely even registers at high levels.
I'd certainly give dehya a slight edge due to her being able to explore dragonspine without dying from cold, but that's also very situational and there are many ways to not freeze there
Freeze is the best reaction for overworld!
Why? Death is the best form of CC, and easy to apply in the overworld ;)
As a new player (started in January) who got Yoimiya as my first 5 star, I inevitably regret it any time I try experimenting with other characters and take her out of my party. She provides the best overworld experience for me of all the characters I've managed to get so far.
I replaced Amber with Yoimiya as soon as I got her because Amber felt clunky in combat, but for exploration, Amber has really good role consolidation: pyro damage, aimable range attacks, and Baron Bunny can hold down pressure plates. If you don't want to be constantly swapping characters in and out of your active party, a new player will need to run a pyro character and an archer for a lot of overworld challenges (torches, exploding barrels, etc...) and the bunny prevents the need for running geo traveler in Liyue if you don't want to.
Love this! I rarely play Abyss but love knowing who's best/worst.
(I acknowledge they're all viable/playable just some characters make certain things easier than others)
Lisa getting the W
Dehya and Gaming have daytime movement speed, Rosaria has nighttime movement speed. These bonuses stack w/ anemo resonance and speed boosts like Lost Prayer to the Sacred Wind.
Rosaria should be in A tier IMO because of her Night Walk passive, as well as being a good utility character being her skill is a gap closer as well as energy battery with Fav Lance. Her power levels is just right for overworld enemies too. And the most important thing of all is her previous default outfit, you gotta love those fishnets when fishing of course 😏
Mona should be higher. Her burst which can be used frequently oneshots weaker enemies (and applies the best element and debuffs stronger ones), her run is faster than average on top of going over water and applies hydro when it ends, and mine is on Prototype Amber making her the only healer I need.
Also convenient in overworld is the decoy she drops when running, making it easier to get enemies you don't want to fight easier to ignore.
And finally, if we're talking about enjoyment of use in the overworld... looks should be a factor.
I think healers like qiqi, kuki and barbara are automatically at least A tier simply bcus they have unconditional healing, and qiqi in particular also has the specialty passive. Ningguang and rosaria i'd also put in A tier bcus ningguang is the only character (i think) who shows mining ore on the map and she's a decent miner. Rosaria's movement speed passive at night is handy but the main thing is her aimbot skill is super good in the overworld and her low cost burst is very easy to fill up. I sometimes farm elite mobs for artifact drops and she doesn't need that much ER to consistently get her ult back in the overworld
Furina has spoiled me, and I can't stand swimming anymore. I always walk on the water instead. I usually leave her in healer mode though for overworld stuff because the little minions will constantly attack random things and drain everyone's health while just walking around. Her healer mode makes you pretty much immortal too. Even with an off field damage build, mine has a ton of health, so her healing over time is fantastic and outpaces any mob enemy and a lot of bosses. For the Crimson Witch weekly boss you can completely ignore the mechanics of the fight and ignore the damage over time you take from the cold or heat. Definitely an easy S tier for overworld.
I don't know why every content creator insists on only ever talking about characters with respect to Spiral Abyss. I've been a daily player since launch, and I endure Spiral Abyss for about 30 minutes twice per month where I merely hope that I get 33 stars on my single run so I don't feel like I have to go back and do it again.
I'm the exact same. Day 1 player, usually get 33 or 34 stars and then I call it a day. Abyss can be fun occasionally, but is mostly a chore/part of the grind. Overworld on the other hand, I love♡
For Beidou in the overworld, if you stand in burning grass, you can tap skill and it always counts as a perfect parry (I assume it's the same for Yun Jin too, though since she's not a claymore and since she is more specialized, I don't think it's worth raising Yun Jin for it). Beidou also can cheese all those Inazuma Electro puzzles.
Also, Razor hold skill one-shots all ores.
Also also, just being a tall male character is a plus because they dash and climb faster than the other character models. Useful if you're missing any of the fast-dashing characters.
I think you forgot that Mika can also find local specialities haha
Fischl B tier for over world is... quite an opinion. To me Fischl is easily A tier for over world. She as super high ease of use. You just press E and switch out and the combat encounter is done with. She can be paired with just about anything. While she is not a claymore she is an archer which is also very useful. For a new account her over world combat ability is overwhelmingly S tier. You might value that more than mobility. I remember when I first started playing this game and Fischl was by far my best character in how good she was in combat. I still use her in overworld a lot.
I like walking around the overworld with Xiao because I like plunging from any height without worrying for damage. It might just be me, but he's like Zhongli to me that makes me feel comfy and safe that I won't die from stupid things. Also, I like zooming while gliding is what I often do with Xiao. I sometimes wish we could switch characters in mid-air so I can switch from Scara to Xiao and extend my air time.
Edit: I just remembered that Xiao has a passive skill that decreases climbing stamina consumption, so I think it's an addition.
Rosaria's movespeed speed buff during night is worth mentioning, her + Gaming gives the buff 100% of the time and melt isn't a bad archetype to be forced into. Can give Xianyun lost prayer, have aneno resonance on top of the prior mentioned and she runs and jumps almost as fast as yelan skill
freminet is good in fontaine underwater
As expected Whales doesn't know that Razor is next to John Lee at mining
Ningguang can show you where ores are on the map so I probably would place her in A tier.
Amber is definitely B tier exclusively for the torch lighting. The only other Pyro bow is Yoimiya who is a limited character that most people won't pull just for overworld utility and I really wouldn't say Bennett makes her redundant since you have to active run to each location.
One thing you missed with Dehya is the only unit with self-sustain for underwater exploration in Fontaine.
Swap Razor and Noelle's placement and then we're good. Razor's hold E is 2nd only to Zhongli in terms of mining. Noelle doesn't really contribute much in the overworld aside from being claymore. Noelle deals dodo damage without her burst. Meanwhile, since Razor is physical, he can still deal decent damage without burst.
I think Barabara should be higher
1. She can heal with skill (even though it's long), So you don't have to go to the statue or eat food for small heals
2. She can hold Thrilling Tales
3. If you have a C6 Barbara she can revive a character every 15 minutes(useful to have it in store)
4. Easy to build since she mainly needs HP(and maybe ER)
I’m one of those who is only now at AR57 starting to do Spiral Abyss because I finally feel more confident to try. I’m still very un-meta about it all and not good, but I’m just happy just to make it to the end of Floor 12 finally lol
So overworld exploration cuties are so valuable! Xianyun and Furina are my top tier right now for OW
Congrats on floor 12! I was ar 58 when I first reached the end, exploration meta > Abyss meta so true
Same! Just cleared floor 12 for the first time at AR55. :-) And XY/Furina never leave my OW team either!
@@georgemacdonald8667 Congratulations!! That’s huge!! And always great to have a Furina/Xianyun duo enjoyer too ~
This is such a good idea. Literally nobody can play spiral abyss without going through the overworld first.
versatility and multifunction is very useful in open world - unless you enjoy perpetually swapping round characters for different situations. Noelle is a classic multi-function.
I feel really confortable playing bow characters in overworld. I'm exploring the new region and it's crazy how good they are. They can interact with monuments from very far away, we have the anemo slime puzzle, the time trial with explosive barrels and bow main dps, like liney, tighnari, ganyu and yoimiya, are amazing for comissions and defeating mobs from far away. And we have Yelan!
I generally use a Ganyu freeze team for the overworld. It has Ganyu, Kokomi/Mona, a shielder, and a utility character or someone I'm farming friendship for. You're basically untouchable and can wreck anything with impunity in this comp. The only downside is that it's terrible against cryo-immune enemies (large cryo slimes are the WORST), but the utility character can usually take care of that.
Hu Tao with Furina, Yelan and Xianyun is one of my favorites for speed. For Elemental checks Hypergeon/Curry with Nahida, Yelan/xingqui/Thoma/Kuki
Xiao can replenish stamina while climbing by using his skill on a wall, making him the sole character capable of infinite climbing. I would say that makes him S tier. I watch just about every video you make, man. Thanks for making great content!
My favorite overworld team is Dehya, Yelan, Rosario and Jean. They are incredibly fast and nimble; can handle any types of enemies including Local Legends. Great survivability and they can freeze, dry, melt, vape or whatever at will. Put down Dehya's field on top of Jean's field (or vice versa) and if desired Rosario's field and you can just stand there and watch things die.
An alternative I used extensively in Chenyu Vale was Dehya, Ganyu, Candace and Xianyun. Good mobility and survivability, climbing becomes almost a non-issue, can use Ganyu to snipe annoyances. Also, Dehya actually synergizes very well with both Ganyu and Candace.
If you have a C6 Amber; she's basically a pyro Ganyu, especially if it is raining. Plus, those bunnies are incredibly useful in the open world. Aimed shot C6 Amber is really strong - she can one shot most cyro slimes and hilichurls. She's also my #1 torch lighter. Likewise, if you have a C6 Faruzan or C6 Kujou Sara, they are a force to be reckoned with in the open world. Both a C6 Amber or a C6 Faruzan can solo most mobs in the open world. Especially if you shield them with Layla who has a very useful ult to provide reactions.
A really fun (and highly destructive) team I've been using a lot lately is Kirara, Nahida, Lynette and Kuki - absolutely superb for open world play. Plus, they are really fast and nimble.
A good starter team which I actually used for a long time was Noelle, Fischl, Xiangling and Barbara. The interaction between Oz and Gouba are a force majeur especially since you can drop them on enemies from a cliff or a tree and then just climb down to pick up the loot... Noelle shielded and backed by Barbara's ring and Xiangling's pyronado is an unstoppable force. Just whirl towards the enemies and watch everything go poof... really fun!
thank you SO MUCH for this video, stuff like this is super hard to find since i dont really enjoy the abyss and only really go in it for the primos
Thank you for this tierlist! I am surprised to see Venti not in top tier. I love using him when Kazuha doesn’t suffice and to help players in co-op.
I spam Xiao's burst in the overworld (I also have C1), and you can E in the air. Xianyun and Kazuha to an extent can help him easily get his burst back. Don't forget no plunge damage as well, very good when leaping from cliffs like near the thunder manifestation when collecting Raiden's fruits/farming ruin sentinels.
I often spam other bursts in overworld too, esp for if they have surplus ER (example my Navia unintentially has 165 ER) and have 60 cost and lower.
Only Xiangling, Noelle, and Cyno do I find terrible to charge back their bursts.
Anyway, if you really need energy back for the burst, there are two teleport spots in Sumeru where a ruin grader spawns nearby. You can teleport there, beat it up with your skills but leave it alive, and your bursts will be back.
In the overworld for exploration, I really like: Kazuha, Zhongli and now Xianyun.
Yoimiya is probably my favorite overworld dps, but I don't have Wanderer.
I think YaoYao should be higher, she is a great healer for the overworld.
I think Bennett is honestly bad for exploration because he doesn't heal enough and he have to use his burst to be useful.
I will put most of Fontaine's characters in trash levels because I don't like the HP mechanics in exploration.
Well, I think Furina can be useful, but I just don't like dealing with HP (I have it and rarely use it for exploring).
Hu Tao has the same problem + stamina problem.
Raiden is OK as an E bot but I don't like her for exploring.
Childe is fine because he uses a bow and I only had some issues when fighting during the quest, other than that he is fine for me.
Raiden and Childe are good for domain and boss fights, especially because nuke is a very powerful mechanic against bosses.
It's true that Childe is that the abyss is better for AOE, but the bosses in the overworld cannot survive his burst.
Agree with the top tier charas by a lot, but as for the others, it's a give or take:
- I'm inclined to put Childe by a tier higher only because bow users are extremely important for overworld puzzles. His CD is rarely a problem for me tbh. It only really becomes an issue when you're battling in the middle of the quest, and because the cutscene that follows prevent you from turning off his skill you end up with 45-sec CD afterwards lol. Would recommend bringing a sub-DPS with his team just in case but yeah, rarely an issue for me
- Raiden can be used as a skill bot in the overworld, which can be a reliable source of full-uptime electro app for dendro DPSes like Tighnari. Miko would be better because her skill does significantly more damage, but Ei can be an option for those who don't have her
- With Fischl, it's harder to maintain Oz uptime outside of domains tbh, but she does have the advantage of being a bow user so there's that
- honestly I used to agree with Xiangling being this low, but these days I prefer her over Bennett in the overworld. Bennett's healing is too burst reliant, and it's capped. Xiangling, at a certain level of investment, can be usable as a Guoba bot, and it's good enough pyro app if you want to do funny melt numbers with someone like Ganyu
Automatic like. Finally, a guide for most genshin players.
Fck, I really don't like Kazuha, but that drops gathering meta is kinda convincing.
not just drops gathering but he kills most enemies with one skill due to swirl dmg being so high
@@mickysaif I really want to roll for him now, but my primos locked for Arlecchino, Clorinde, and that one goth girl.
lol i thought the same thing when i was starting. I thought i was only gonna use waifu characters, but after seeing how useful he was i pulled for him and have not regretted it. he is one of my faves
Try Venti instead if you like him better. He works too.
Jello this is absolutely great idea. I think you may make a video about overworld teams or in the future region specific. This video gives fresh air for so many people
You don't want to know why Lisa is S-tier. Trust me.
@@georgemacdonald8667I wanna know...for science
I think my favorite overworld team currently is Zhongli, Neuvillette, Kazuha, and Kuki. Yeah yeah, I know, premium units etc, but they’re great for clearing trash mobs, mining, and climbing. Only weakness is running, but since both Zhongli and Neuvillette are tall male characters, it’s not *that* bad (unless you’re in the Sumeru desert in which case nothing is more painful. I’m sure when I go to hell, Sumeru desert exploration will be my punishment)
Ning shows you were ore is on the mini map. BUT they haven't given her Clearwater Jade yet! >:(
Weird. Yanfei shows Chenyu Vale specialties including Clearwater Jade.
@aki9265 That's why. Ning shows ores, not specialties. They're classified differently. Same reason she won't show amber or jade either, as they aren't "ore".
Wanderer ftw
Ftw meaning?
For the win @@sudiptaday7875
For the win ?
@@sudiptaday7875 Google says it's "for the win"
Wanderer+ Raiden EM is the only option.
He needs a supportive mother.
Great vid idea , thx Jello! 😁
Xiao is solid A.His skill is pretty useful and climbing passive sometimes helps a lot
I think you forget about Rosaria, and Dehya, and Gaming's movement speed passive…
Do you know that you can glide in between Xianyun's skills and get more distance? Like skill, glide for a second, skill again, glide and then skill and then glide.
Xiao is burst reliant. BUT, his normal attacks are soo cool (coolest in the game imo), and as someone who has crowned them; they dish out pretty good damage for the overworld. The elemental skill is a nice bonus
I was lucky to have Sayu as my first four star outside of the starting characters + Noelle. Very useful to have for traversing long distances and catching crystalflies when you’re starting out, and she can still pull her weight as a clutch healer with even a little bit of investment. I have her, Yelan, Kazuha, and Ayaka as my exploration team.
Mika can also show Mondstadt specialties, so he’s useful for people that don’t have or want to pull for Klee. I will say, though, that I find his long skill cooldown to be just as big of a detriment as his reliance on burst for healing.
I also find Razor and Candace to be underrated in terms of overworld. Their held skills can also mine clusters of ore similar to Zhongli, and they have passives that decrease stamina consumption for running and climbing, respectively.
Mika burst cost basically zero if you give him R5 RR and the standard support levels of ER
My S tier for overworld is also my first main in the game, Razor, kind of a joke now but his skill mines everything in one hit and you can just use his skills and smack enemies to clear any overworld encounter, he doesn't even need to burst, so comfy.
Agree that Thoma isn't for exploration, but he helps in fishing for The Catch!
you keep dropping banger content
Great video!!
The farthest run is sayu though
For mining, I use Beidou and Bennett (since I don't have Zhongli) together with C6 Lynette and Sayu for running. I use Bennett's skill over a patch of grass, walk on it as Beidou, use skill and immediately all of the ores pop out like popcorn XD
this was a nice video concept! overworld quality often feels underrated. its 100% why I dont regret getting units like yoimiya or most recently xianyun.
I think raiden is a strange one because her burst feels so bad in overworld while her skill ends up being so good. It might be the easiest elemental aplication in the entire game and really helps characters like nahida and furina get reactions on their skills. On that note, nahida doesn't just deserve credit for her passive, which I usually forget about, but her unique aoe. It basically bypasses grouping and takes care of any enemy in annoying to reach spots without ever needing to so much as look at them. Raiden quickbloom with nahida, furina and baishu was one of my surprise favourites for overworld because of its superb skill uptime, low effort and aoe. Every burst you have up helps, but not one of them is essential to making the team work
Another is Yoimiya, yelan, xq and dehya. Dehya has been a much better pick than bennett imo. Not only does he introduce burst/circle impact gameplay (though very manageable, unlike xianling). 99% of his kit just feels overkill and redundant in the overworld while dehya's E synergizes really nicely with XQ's E. Full interuption resistance and so much dmg resistance that XQ's healing becomes more than enough.
as a yae miko main with lost prayer, it gives a 10% constant movement speed buff so she moves as fast as she ends fights. i find it very convenient. as another example of bias, when "exploring" overworld, i don't want these characters that use skills to run across a continent, i actually want to move at a controlled pace so i can scour every corner. just my opinion though.
oh, btw, you said kazuha was the only one who could suck up items? that's not entirely true. qiqi's windy idle animation blows items around. lol. jokes aside, though, venti can't?
I would love to see a tier list for *Co-Op Characters!* I have C6 Diona and C6 Kirara, and their group shielding alongside their other utilities (healing and Dendro application, respectively) is such a go-to when I'm not sure what to bring to a team, especially against Azhdaha~
Or Furina as a healer. She's so broken in pneuma mode in co-op. Everyone in the party getting their own healing ring.
Yaoyao A for crystal fly farming
I've been waiting for this tier list ever since I started playing 🤩
Don't forget Ningguang's ore radar. Also, Razor's hold E is equal to Zhongli's for mining, getting electrocharged on water being the only notable drawback.
- Razor's hold E is just as good as Zhongli's hold E for mining. Though razor's Hold E AoE is less than zhongli, he makes up for it for being a claymore character.
- Kuki and Yaoyao i generally like more than Diona, this is mostly cause their heals are tied down to their Skill and not their burst, and both having access to hyperbloom/dendro related reactions makes the overworld a breeze. (Barbara is the only exception of this just cause of the self inflict hydro, its so annoying against cryo enemies)
- I see nahida's item grab an equavalent to kazuha's suction of the enemy drops. Instead of running all the way, or climbing up a wall, or walking/swimming across a body water just to grab pickable ascension mats, having nahida's skill to grab it saves so much time. Though i know some people doesn't like it as much, its something you actually need to get used to actually appreciate (make it your muscle memory to actually use nahida skill to grab items instead of picking it up yourself). And if you're a keyboard and mouse player, you can also just spin around and you get some random mints and sweet flowers nearby that you usually don't pick up cause you're too lazy to pick it up yourself 😂.
Raiden should be B just for the hyperbloom build. I never use that build on my own account, but I've used it on someone else's. Honestly feels better than Kuki due to uptime and no hp loss. Best with Furina and Xianyun for the movement and free damage from Furina, but any hydro+healer/shielder works.
Thing is, it doesn't really matter for the overworld. Most camps are too trivial that you won't make it through a rotation of your team anyway. Which is why burst reliant characters lose value, as well as why VV doesn't matter for anemo characters when looking at the overworld, but instead, what other things they bring to the table. So there's a greater focus on mobility, on finding resources, on being able to tackle various puzzles easily, and so on, instead of combat ability and team combat synergy.
these are the tier lists that no one is making and are super helpful 🙏🏽
Wanderer will never go to S tier for me because he always get slowed down with slight incline
My top overworld traversal team is: Wanderer, Kirara, Yelan, and Sayu, which covers flight, vertical traversal, dashing, etc.
This is such a good team, I've been using it for quite a while. I slot in Nahida instead of Kirara usually because I like collecting seeds for the teapot, but Kirara is better than her overall.
(im currently not that far into the video but the video title reminded me of what i did yesterday) i would place geo traveller in at least high tier. My friends and i were joking around, wondering if we could reach Furina's chair to sit on, since we couldn't climb the walls. I pulled out Zhongli and Geo traveller and said "lets find out." One of the friends I was with had Wanderer so he had an easier time getting up there with my help, but my other friend didnt have wanderer, so she followed me as i placed traveller's rocks to climb to the top. Best geo traveller moment ever XD
Geo trav is good for this. I used Keqing for Furina's chair. Xianyun would be good too, of course.
BEIDOU IS THE WORST CLAYMORE FOR MINING ORE! She takes 4 hits to break ore while every other claymore only take 3.
Sayu also takes 4 hits (although her charged attack is slightly faster)
The worse part about Beidou’s mining to me is the angles at which she slashes, so only her first normal attack can contact the shorter ore hitboxes like Jade and Inazuma’s smaller crystals.
I needed this
My current exploration team is Gaming (for mining and gathering electro crystals and frost flowers), Furina (for water walking and fire flowers), Nahida (for all other gathering), and Xianyun (for vertical mobility). Kazuha used to be my vertical mobility go-to, but I benched him for the flavor of the month. I still like bringing in Amber to solve the occasion fire puzzle just for old time sake, and Zhongli for those puzzles where you have to stand on two circles at once to activate. Kirara will be added when I have a lot of climbing while farming whatever. Yao Yao is a great healer, good at dendro application and most of all, animals don't run off when she's in your party making it easier to gather crabs and flies.
It's interesting that as you went the deeper into this tier list the focus shifted to primarily combat strengths and less on general overworld utility.
Thanks for putting together that list. That is more for me. Now, if we could get Kaguha, Yelan, The Wanderer and Zhongly become available some time soon. Next, could you give us examples of teams for the rest of us?
biased razor main opinion: in overworld he‘s actually pretty neat. with holding his skill he can mine many ores at the same time (like zhongli) and he has 20% sprinting stamina reduction
id put venti on S tier since he’s the combination of scara for updrafts, yelan for bow, kazuha for grouping capabilities and that extra stamina reduction while gliding.
he’s definitely very versatile in the overworld since you can afk with him with his burst which is very easy to activate, easy groupings in domain and overworld mobs especially in the early game. challenges that requires anemo and bow challenges. collecting elemental oculus has never been easy. he provides vv shred and deals a ton of damage if you build him right and invest to him a little bit.
overall, venti is almost a character that is a ALL for One in the overworld so he definitely deserves to be in the S tier if i am gonna list him.
Dehya and Rosaria movement speed buffs. Twelve characters have stamina discount. Kirara and Aloy for fowl. Sayu and Yaoyao for crystalflies. Sayu was S-tier for mobile players before the crystalfly trap.
