Free 5star choice advice

Hello everyone!!

im a returning player to genshin after a decent break, and i would like to kno who would be the best choice for my free 5 star, I have xiao fully built but i dont really have his good premium team other than furina (idk if thats still his team) i did enjoy tighnari but not really built, i played kokomi in a hyperbloom team but i havent played that team since neuvilette and mavuika are my main teams, wanderer too is built but no premium team. As of what id like to go for in the future. Idk if i should pull ineffa and bina, or varka and some future character. I do like varka's design a lot and his leaks seem fun, but ineffa and columbina seem like uch more worth meta wise, ive also considered getting bina and zibai as her banner gives a good team but eh idk.

Based on all that would anyone be able to guide me on the best 5star free choice?

THANKS!!

I heard Monas constellations have really good potential on her c2/c4 for reaction based stuff.

As for meta no idea but Ineffa has been nothing short of amazing since ive had her but I dont know about older accounts. I think shes the best character in the game. Cleared the abyss first time last month with her Aino, Arlecchino and Bennett C0 lol.

Oh wow.... is she THAT strong???? might have to get her and varka then, or her and bina im still very much unsure....

Columbina and Ineffa are going to be a very strong pair since they can proc a bunch of reactions now that we're in the Lunar meta.

I dunno i just put her in a team with hydro and good stuff happens i dont care for ultra meta stuff i just play what i like lol.

She does alot of damage if you keep her in mind.

Don’t waste it on a standard banner, please. The next thing you the next 50/50 you lose is the same character.

yeah will do, but as a quick question, how good is c2 jean for varka when compared to sucrose? as i dont have venti

KyrrithK2026-01-13 21:57

Jean's C4 is the only one that might be relevant to Varka (anemo shred), Claymores typically don't gain much from ATK speed buffs because of hitlag.

Plus, I've heard people say Varka >!is a Hexerei character/wants 2 Hexerei teams. Sucrose meets that requirement, Jean currently doesn't. But maybe we get a second wave of Mondstadt buffs or something.!<

Regardless, you could always hold off on choosing until we get more info, pretty sure even the official livestream would happen before the current round of TTT ends, or just look for leaks.

yeah i’ll go looking for leaks before even approaching the banners this patch

Good luck getting C4 Mona without ever picking her from selector. Sure it is *possible* but it's not likely. And her C4 is a big deal, while C1 and C2 also being nice smaller buffs

My mona is C6 after almost 4 years playing. It depends how long you’ve been doing this. Though she was the last standard banner character, I had to wait for her. But after that it was fine. My Diluc and Qiqi are also C6.

The best cons are easily monas but that's kinda boring :(

So next is wanderers or xiao
