SS Tier Polearm Characters

Character Roles and Strengths
Genshin - Cyno Cyno As a DPS
・Decent Electro hypercarry for Dendro reactions such as Aggravate and Hyperbloom.
・Requires his high-energy Elemental Burst to deal damage, and switching out ends it.
・Poor resistance to interruptions, which affects his recommended tempo for his rotations.
Genshin - Iansan Iansan As a Support
・High ATK buffs and healing rivaling that of Bennett, although with the caveat that she required characters who can move a lot to satisfy the conditions of her buffs.
・Buff indicator follows the character and not restricted to position.
Genshin - Ineffa Ineffa As a Sub-DPS
・Enabler for Lunar-Charged reaction that can also CRIT, with great personal damage to boot.
・Superb Electro application with 100% uptime and duration can be reset.
・Great defensive slot as she can also shield.
As a Support
・Enough shielding that lasts for the entire duration of her Skill, and scales with the same stat as her offensive stat.
・Can also provide her active character and herself a sizable number of Elemental Mastery based on her ATK.
Genshin - Flins Flins As a DPS
・Lunar-Charged on-field DPS who only requires a Hydro to function at his base, in which Aino is the free-to-play option.
・Burst-reliant DPS but it's mitigated by his low Special Burst cost, although he's also reliant on another Electro off-fielder for Energy for his optimal rotation.
・Not much choices in supports as he's locked to Lunar-Charged units, and Nod-Krai supports are still confined to a handful of characters, but future potential might change his course.

S Tier Polearm Characters

Character Roles and Strengths
Genshin - Chevreuse Chevreuse As a Support
・Powerful RES Shred debuff, ATK buffs, and healing as the best support for Overloaded team comps at C6.
・Her team comps are inherently niche, and she doesn't necessarily fix the problem of Overloaded knocking enemies away, thus she's only better against bosses than other similar supports.
Genshin - Escoffier Escoffier As a Sub-DPS
・High off-field damage specializing in Freeze reaction with 100% uptime, with RES shred and healing.
・Core member of Freeze teams but with a restriction similar to Chevreuse albeit a bit more flexible.
・Easy plug-and-play playstyle for any content.
As a Support
・Superb RES shred and healing but otherwise tied to one reaction and related-elements only.
・Elevates current Cryo characters especially for charaters who excel in Freeze.
Genshin - Alyosha Alyosha As a Support
・Dual support capabilities by enhancing ATK% and healing members with their Elemental Skill and Burst.
・Good solo Electro application to enable Stellar-Conduct with.

A Tier Polearm Characters

Character Roles and Strengths
Genshin - Xiangling Xiangling As a Sub-DPS
・Elemental Burst snapshots all buffs before activation, and the damage tick is frequent and consistent. Because of this, she's currently the best Pyro DPS for AoE.
・Best paired with other Pyro units who can battery her Burst.
Genshin - Shenhe Shenhe As a Support
・Best buffer for Cryo teams with Elemental Skill, She can also decrease enemies' Physical and Cryo resistance on her Burst.
・Quills are limited unless you have her constellations.
Genshin - Emilie Emilie As a Sub-DPS
・Dedicated Sub-DPS for Burning teams with a Pyro character with great damage and over 100% uptime on her Elemental Skill.
・Allows constant Burning and Pyro application on an enemy as long as her Elemental Skill is up.
Genshin - Illuga Illuga As a Support
・Enhances Geo damage and CRIT via normal rotations.
・Functions solely as a Geo buffer.
Genshin - Lohen Lohen As a DPS
・Excellent driver for Cryo-based teams, most notably Melt teams.
・Has notable synergy with Sub-DPS characters and prefers it, and therefore has more general lenience in teambuilding, although his Best-in-Slots are still limited 5-stars.

B Tier Polearm Characters

Character Roles and Strengths
Genshin - Zhongli Zhongli As a Support
・Can provide the strongest and most durable shield in the game while also offering free unconditional Elemental RES shred.
Genshin - Rosaria Rosaria As a Sub-DPS
・Applies off-field Cryo with her Elemental Burst, good for Freeze and decent for Melt teams.
・At C2, the duration of her Burst is increased.
As a Support
・Her Burst increases CRIT Rate for all party members by 15% of Rosaria's CRIT Rate.
・Aim to make Rosaria's CRIT Rate 100%.
・At C6, she decreases enemy Physical RES by -20%, a very strong debuffer for Physical DMG mains!
Genshin - Raiden Raiden As a DPS
・Burst enables her to be on-field, which also deals obscene amounts of damage within 7 seconds.
・DEF ignore is an extremely powerful buff from her C2, which makes her a top-tier DPS that can obliterate her enemies within seconds.
As a Sub-DPS
・Can trigger Hyperbloom cores easily as a Sub DPS with her Elemental Skill. Her Skill can also be used for other reactions such as Superconduct, Electro-Charged, or Overloaded.
Genshin - Arlecchino Arlecchino As a DPS
・High raw Pyro damage even in non-Vaporize situations or Overloaded teams with Chevreuse.
・Normal Attacks are swift, have a wide AoE, while also having good damage to boot and simple to activate once you learn her rotations, which makes her viable in single target, AoE, and overworld content.
・Extremely high risk gameplay may be off-putting for some early-game players.
Genshin - Yaoyao Yaoyao As a Support
・Applies Dendro to enemies and heals while off-field with her Elemental Skill.
・Elemental Burst has strong party healing but Yaoyao has to be on-field to make it work.

C Tier Polearm Characters

Character Roles and Strengths
Genshin - Xiao Xiao As a DPS
・Elemental Burst increases overall DPS at the cost of his HP.
・Normal Attacks and Elemental Skill set up high DMG combos.
・Requires supports for offensive and healing to perform optimally.
Genshin - Hu Tao Hu Tao As a DPS
・Deals large amounts of single-target Pyro DMG with her Elemental Skill and Charged Attacks.
・Elemental Skill infused Normal and Charged Attacks with Pyro and increase damage at the cost of sacrificing some of her HP.
・C1 lets you spam Charged Attacks without consuming Stamina.
Genshin - Thoma Thoma As a Sub-DPS
・Elemental Burst applies Pyro, which can be used as the best trigger currently for Burgeon reactions.
・C2 increases the duration of his Elemental Burst, and C4 solves his energy issues.
As a Support
・Decent Pyro shields that refreshes everytime your active character uses their Normal Attacks.
・Becomes a proper offensive support at C6, which boosts Normal, Charged, and Plunged Attack damage when shielded with his Elemental Skill.
Genshin - Yun Jin Yun Jin As a Support
・Boosts normal attack damage with Elemental Burst.
・Normal attack damage buff increases when in party with different elements.
・C6 also gives Normal ATK SPD buffs, which is greatly appreciated for Normal Attack-focused team comps.

D Tier Polearm Characters

Character Roles and Strengths
Genshin - Candace Candace As a Support
・Increases Elemental Normal Attack damage.
・Infuses Sword, Claymore, and Polearms with Hydro that enable characters to trigger Hydro reactions on their own, but highly situational.
Genshin - Mika Mika As a Support
・Decent Physical DMG or ATK Speed Buffer, but only a few character can reliably exploit his buffs.
・Provides good burst healing for the entire party but slow sustained healing for the active character.
Genshin - Kachina Kachina As a Sub-DPS
・Okay off-field damage that can also provide multiple uses.
・Can equip Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City, which is a powerful artifact set restricted for Natlan units.
