Roles & Playstyle of Zhongli and His Strengths and Weakness

Off-Field Support Zhongli

Zhongli's kit leans more into a support role but he can be build as a Quickswap DPS utilizing his Burst to deal damage. However due to the limitations of Geo reactions, it can be difficult to achieve enough damage to build him as a DPS character.

Pros and Cons of Off-Field Support Zhongli

Pros
- Has the strongest shield in the game.
- Resistance shred includes Physical damage.
- Petrify effect allows non-Freeze teams to stop enemies from moving.
Cons
- Geo pillar can sometimes interfere with Elemental reactions.

Best Weapon for Zhongli

Zhongli's weapon choices are HP stat sticks and Shield Strength weapons. Since HP Polearms are few, Zhongli's best weapons for HP boosting are his F2P options instead of premium weapons since most of the 5-star Polearms are CRIT stats or ATK leaning.

Premium Weapons for Zhongli

- Weapon passive gives 20% HP and CRIT DMG stat that allows Zhongli to deal more damage.
- Worse than Black Tassel if not building Zhongli with CRIT stats for damage.
2nd Vortex VanquisherVortex VanquisherGet from Limited Banner
- Zhongli's signature weapon that can only be obtained when his banner is also active.
- Increases Shield Strength and ATK. However, the ATK stat doesn't benefit Zhongli.

Zhongli's premium options are worse than his best F2P option since none of them increase HP as much as Black Tassel does. As of Version 6.0, there still is not a good premium HP Polearm that Zhongli can use.

- Chiori deals Off-Field Geo damage and has her damage boosted by Zhongli and Itto's Geo constructs.
- Gorou provides buffs for the two damage dealers to allow them to deal more damage.

Zhongli's best team setup that utilizes his Geo construct resonance effect and shields is a Mono Geo team with Itto as the DPS. With Zhongli's Geo resistance shred, both Itto and Chiori can deal damage. Chiori can make rotations faster since Zhongli's Hold Skill is a bit lengthy.

Best Teams For Zhongli

Team Rotation of Zhongli and Combos

Basic Team Rotation for Zhongli

Basic Rotation For Zhongli
1. Use Elemental Skill (Hold).
2. (Optional) Use Elemental Burst.
3. Switch to other characters.

Zhongli's rotation in a team is short and simple since only his Shield is needed. Simply use his Elemental Skill's Held version then switching him out. Unless a particularly strong attack from a boss in later content attacks it, there's no need to worry about his shield breaking or expiring since it's very strong and has a longer duration.

Basics Of Using Zhongli

Use Elemental Skill (Hold) to Create a Shield

Zhongli's Elemental Skill has two version a Tap and Hold version. Hold version is used more since it creates both his shield and Geo construct. Zhongli's Geo construct is able to resonate with other Geo constructs to deal more Geo damage.

Zhongli's Elemental Skill Effect
PressCommands the power of earth to create a Stone Stele.
HoldCauses nearby Geo energy to explode, causing the following effects:
- If their maximum number hasn't been reached, creates a Stone Stele.
- Creates a shield of jade. The shield's DMG Absorption scales based on Zhongli's Max HP.
- Deals AoE Geo DMG.
- If there are nearby targets with the Geo element, it will drain a large amount of Geo element from a maximum of 2 such targets. This effect does not cause DMG.
Stone Stele- When created, deals AoE Geo DMG.
- Additionally, it will intermittently resonate with other nearby Geo constructs, dealing Geo DMG to nearby opponents.
- The Stone Stele is considered a Geo construct that can both be climbed and used to block attacks.
- Only one Stele created by Zhongli himself may initially exist at any one time.

Shield Shreds Nearby Enemy Resistances

Zhongli's shield can shred all resistances of nearby enemies including Physical resistance. This makes him one of the few sources of Physical resistance shred.

Jade Shield Effect
- Possesses 150% DMG Absorption against all Elemental and Physical DMG.
- Characters protected by the Jade Shield will decrease the Elemental RES and Physical RES of opponents in a small AoE by 20%. This effect cannot be stacked.

Use Elemental Burst to Petrify Enemies

Zhongli's Elemental Burst is an AoE Geo damage attack that Petrify enemies hit by it. Petrification can affect larger enemies but not bosses. It is a unique Crowd Control effect that only Zhongli has.

Zhongli's Elemental Burst Effect
- Brings a falling meteor down to earth, dealing massive Geo DMG to opponents caught in its AoE and applying the Petrification status to them.
Petrification
- Opponents affected by the Petrification status cannot move.

Elemental Skill, Burst and Abilities Guide for Zhongli

How To Use Zhongli?

A Shield Support for Any Team

Zhongli is a Shield support character that can fit in any team. His shield is currently the best shield in the game. It also comes with the added benefit of universal RES shred, allowing for any DPS to be able to use this debuff to their benefit.

Things Zhongli Can Do
★ Create a shield that will not break easily
★ Debuff the damage RES of enemies
★ Use Burst to petrify enemies for crowd control
★ Create a monolith that can be used for exploration
★ Mine ores with hold E. Skill

Hold E. Skill to Create a Shield and Debuff Enemies

When holding his E. Skill, Zhongli will create a Shield and shreds the damage RES of enemies in a small AoE. Along with that, he also creates a Monolith Geo construct that deals Geo DMG every few seconds.

Use E. Burst to Petrify Non-Boss Enemies

The Elemental Burst of Zhongli smashes down a Meteor on enemies and applies a unique status effect, Petrification. Zhongli is the only known character that can apply this effect. Petrification stops enemies from moving during its duration, allowing for DPS characters to deal damage in this time period. Petrification can only be used on non-boss enemies!

E. Skill can Create a Monolith Good for Exploration

Both tap E. Skill and hold E. Skill can summon a Monolith that can be used for exploration purposes. It is best used when reaching a higher altitude.

Hold E. Skill can Mine Ores

zhongli mining

His E. Skill also has another usage! It can mine any ores in the near vicinity. Along with passive effect of Ningguang, Zhongli can make your mining needs much more easier. Although the cooldown for hold E. skill makes it less efficient than what other characters can do for mining.

Should You Pull for Zhongli's Constellation Or Best Weapon?

Zhongli Is Already Good at C0

Signature VS Constellations
C3 > Vortex VanquisherVortex Vanquisher

C1 to C3 are Good Stopping Points But Not Necessary

Zhongli is typically used as an off-field Geo shield character that can shred every type of Elemental RES and Physical shred, and his C3 that add talent levels to his Skill, which generates the shield, is going to be the best constellation if you are set on vertically investing into a support-oriented Zhongli. Constellations beyond C3 will not be as impactful and can be ignored in favor of other investments.

Otherwise, if you are looking to primarily use him as a Burst DPS, then C1 allows you to summon two Stone Steles instead of one, making it easier for him to gain Energy to consistently use his Burst as a damage source. This type of Zhongli gameplay can also make use of Vortex Vanquisher if you have it, but if you don't, then it is not a good enough reason to pull for Vortex Vanquisher over any other polearm such as the Staff of Homa, which is both universal and is the best damage-oriented 5-star polearm for Zhongli overall.

In general, Zhongli's kit doesn't need constellation levels to be adequate at his job as a shielder. Pulling for his constellations and Signature Weapon are a matter of preference and available funds. However, as a rule of thumb, if you really like the character to that extent, and if you have the means to do so, then it's fine to vertically invest as much as you can afford.

Zhongli has no sense of money due to many factors. Childe and Hu Tao often end up paying for his debts. It was up to a point that Paimon asked why did he not set some Mora aside for his new identity after his retirement.

The Former Geo Archon

At the end of Liyue Archon Quest storyline, it was revealed that Zhongli was the Geo Archon. The reason why he did not reveal himself nor help during the Liyue crisis was due to a contract he had with Signora.
