In Genshin Impact, the strength of 5-star characters is well-known, but some 4-star characters undergo a significant power spike at Constellation 6! Their performance can rival surpass some 5-star characters. Next, LDShop presents a top 10 list of C6 4-star characters for Travelers' reference!
Table of Content
Xingqiu
Element: Hydro | Weapon: Sword
His Constellation 6 not only significantly increases the damage of his Elemental Burst but also completely resolves his Energy Recharge issues. After unlocking C6, Xingqiu can focus entirely on building CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG to maximize his output. Furthermore, his Elemental Skill has high scaling, making him extremely powerful when paired with Pyro main DPS characters to trigger Vaporize reactions.
Chevreuse
Element: Pyro | Weapon: Polearm
Compared to Kujou Sara and Faruzan, Chevreuse can not only support both Pyro and Electro main DPS characters but also provides healing and RES shred, giving her extremely high versatility. Her C6, which provides team-wide healing and a DMG Bonus, is exceptionally powerful. She can even replace Kazuha in the "Raiden Hypercarry" team: Raiden Shogun, Kujou Sara, Bennett and Kazuha.
Bennett
Element: Pyro | Weapon: Sword
He is already transformed after unlocking his first Constellation. However, for some players, his C6 represents a different kind of game-changer. With C6 active, his Burst infuses melee characters within its field with Pyro and provides a Pyro DMG Bonus. While this can disrupt the damage rotation of some main DPS characters, he also enables powerful new team compositions and playstyles.

Faruzan
Element: Anemo | Weapon: Bow
After unlocking C6, her Burst provides a 40% Anemo CRIT DMG bonus to the active character and a significant amount of Anemo RES shred. She is the premier support for Xiao and Wanderer—any player using an Anemo main DPS will want to pull for her.
Kujou Sara
Element: Electro | Weapon: Bow
As a dedicated Electro support, C6 Kujou Sara provides a massive 60% Electro CRIT DMG bonus to her allies, essentially acting as a second CRIT DMG circlet for Electro characters. Even without her C6, her Elemental Skill still provides an ATK buff to the active character, making her a highly recommended character to build.
Gaming
Element: Pyro | Weapon: Claymore
Like Xiao, he specializes in Plunging Attacks. With high investment, Gaming's damage can rival or even surpass some 5-star characters. His C6 increases his Plunging Attack CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG and also expands its area of effect. For new players lacking a strong main DPS, obtaining Gaming is a significant power spike.
Sucrose
Element: Anemo | Weapon: Catalyst
With her C6, when Sucrose's Burst absorbs an element, it provides a 20% corresponding Elemental DMG Bonus to all party members. This effect is similar to Kaedehara Kazuha's passive talent, albeit with half the bonus. For players who do not have Kazuha, Sucrose remains an incredibly strong support unit.
Noelle
Element: Geo | Weapon: Claymore
Before C6, Noelle's Burst has relatively low damage and a short duration, so she is primarily used as a support/shielder. However, her sixth Constellation converts her DEF into ATK during her Burst and extends its duration when defeating opponents. When paired with strong supports, Noelle's damage can compete with mainstream 5-star main DPS characters.
Ororon
Element: Elecyro | Weapon: Bow
A new four-star character introduced in the Natlan version, Ororon is an excellent off-field Electro sub-DPS. While his personal damage is modest, his C6 allows him to provide energy to the team, increase their ATK, and is a super counter to frequency-based shields.
Lan Yan
Element: Anemo | Weapon: Catalyst
The latest four-star character released in the most recent version of Genshin Impact. At C6, she becomes a powerful shielder comparable to Zhongli. She is considered a dedicated support for Arlecchino and Clorinde, providing a nearly seamless shield that can be constantly refreshed through her Normal Attacks, making her exceptionally reliable.
Conclusion
To put it simply, 4-star characters in Genshin Impact are far from being mere substitutes for 5-star ones. Upon unlocking their full potential at C6, many undergo a transformative power spike, allowing them to rival—or even surpass—certain 5-star characters in terms of damage, support utility, or survivability.
Unlocking high constellations requires a substantial amount of Intertwined and Acquaint Fates. If you're looking to build your Primogem resources to aim for these powerful C6 characters, LDShop Genshin Top-up is here to help.
