Exploration is one of the overlooked aspects of Genshin Impact, especially when using the wrong characters. But once you understand its importance you can not only traverse the map easily. But with the right characters also find many resources that are hidden in plain sight and are easy to miss. So in this guide let us check the list of best characters and teams for exploration in Genshin Impact.
Best Characters to Use for Exploration in Genshin Impact
These are the best characters for exploring the map in Genshin impact and they all serve different purposes hence these are not ranked in any particular order. Some are good for their utility passives, while others for their abilities.
- Venti
- Kaeya
- Ningguang
- Keqing
- Qiqi
- Klee
- Diluc
- Zhongli
- Kamisato Ayaka/Mona
Let us learn why you should use them for exploration.
Venti
Starting with Venti, this character can launch himself up. This improves your chance of getting at areas that are difficult to reach. You can also launch yourself to increase your glide reach. And his utility passive is also very notable, it reduces the gliding stamina consumption by 20% for all party members. This is the same passive as that of Amber.
Kaeya
Kaeya is a Cryo character that you can use to freeze water to create ice bridges. This can allow you to explore many places easily as it can save you the time of finding alternate routes. His utility passive is also very useful as it decreases the spriting stamina consumption by 20% for all party members.
Ningguang – Best Character for Exploration in Genshin Impact
She is an excellent character to use when you are in need of some ores. This is thanks to her utility passive. Ningguang can locate nearby ore veins on the mini-map. So add her to your team and use some character with a claymore and you will stack up on ores in no time.
Keqing
Keqing is an excellent character thanks to her Stellar Restoration elemental skill. This ability basically allows her to use teleport. But it only works diagonally, so you will have to get used to it a bit before you can use it properly. Thankfully it is very easy and should not give players a hard time.
Qiqi
If you are looking for the special resources that are unique to Liyue then Qiqi is your character. Her utility passive shows the locations of such resources that are unique to Liyue on the mini-map. You can recognize it by a hand icon.
Klee – Genshin Impact Best Character for Exploring
Klee is a super similar character to Qiqi when it comes to her utility passive. But instead of Liyue, she shows the locations of resources unique to Mondstadt on the mini-map.
Diluc
Diluc is an oddly placed character for this list. The reason for it is he doesn’t have any utility passive focused on exploration. Rather he is on this list because he is a Pyro character that uses a Claymore. Claymore is handy when you want to farm ores and his Pyro damage allows you to burn some woods or any other obstacle that needs and can be burned.
Zhongli
Like Diluc Zhongli too doesn’t have a utility passive that contributes to exploration. Rather he has the ability to create pillars that the player can climb to get to unreachable places.
Kamisato Ayaka/Mona
This is a tie thanks to their Alternate sprint. It allows them to traverse water faster than any other characters. The catch is the speed and the ability of both is the same. Some might say Ayaka is faster, while others may say, Mona. So you can go with any of them.
