Ineffa is the most broken character in the game
Just after watching testing closely the 3 weaved in reportoire of Xilonen, Bina and, Ineffa is so fkn fast its legitimately frightening it makes Bennett look mid and janky. Navia is going as lightning fast as Skirk
Now on field Bina scales higher on her personal if paired with (with the second most broken character lets be honest with ourselves here Lauma) but heres the huge difference. No sustain... but guess whose there for the spot. And the reality is even if its Nefers team (which objectively it is as going down the Bina/Lauma route no Nefer) the sustain is still Ineffa again (Zhongli is alot more janky here)
The next DPS that is the best as of now is Zibai and her proper baseline and top end is comically high
Its either Zibai, C6 Illuga, Bina, Zhongli (which is Ineffa output just jankier)
Or its Zibai, XiloBineffa
Heck Mavuika dropping her cit/bennet for the Bineffa actually goes higher than regular melt stuff and floats for higher than 140k becuase theres zero mishaps just donut away.
Crazy stuff

Its boom, boom, boom okay go, boom boom boom go
Because in testing as Ineffa doesnt mess with the constant and ultra consistent geo procs whereas Fischl applies way too much overtakes the hydro aura
The noelle team looks fukn sick
No setup just go fk the personal damage shits popping off left right and center
After 1.3, Zhongli got the RES shred on his shield and he lived all the way to Sumeru at that top of charts (with Bennett). His only downside was no reactions. That's why Citlali popped off, despite a weaker shield. She could do damage, enable reactions, and specifically shredded the Res of the elements that mattered to her teammates. (Cinder City helps too)
Ineffa is just the next step in that same 5\* "Shielder, but *more*" mentality. Back in version 1.X and 2.X and even into Fontaine with 4.X, Zhongli's inclusion was a DPS loss that could be negligible, thanks to not Dodging. But now, DPS is GOD in Abyss, and losing a team slot for middling damage that doesn't cause reactions is insane. So they made a shielder that provides personal damage, enables the most powerful reactions we have (dendro and lunar reactions), and still has a respectable shield strength to mitigate Dodge DPS loss.
Honestly my favorite team that i got lined up is Furina and Xilobineffa, just build a damage Furina f it shes been a fav slave for too long and aura farm
Free the Fav!
Ineffa is the best
Then they will drop the new mechanic that shafts shielders and shifts the meta back to requiring healers
Trust me Escoffier Furina Bineffa sounds silly but goes disgusting
Heck you can play DPS jean with Furina and the Bineffa core and itll slap remember Jean way back then was prettt mandotory for a crazy ass abyss floor
Also I did say Zhongli is ineffa is to geo now his damage is nutty.
>!There's also hints and *potential* leaks that the Hexerei buffs are coming to Liyue, for Zhongli and a couple others not relevant to the conversation!<

I'm pretty sure he was still a damage loss compared to other characters even after buffs.
The Res Shred and "no need to dodge" were what kept him relevant and *mitigated* the DPS loss. Made it more manageable. But now everything has so much HP that not bringing the supports that do more is *too much* of a detriment to ignore.
