If I were to hypothetically make a part 2 of Underrated Characters, who do you think deserves to be featured? :o

[brooksyang]

The worst part about Yoimiya is her banner timings.

[crocworks]

Kaeya is also a great battery in freeze teams since he generates extra energy on frozen enemies.

[VerasDeath]

i cannot begin to talk about how underrated yanfei is.
her scaling may not be as high but she is such a fun character

[paulyvii]

A character that I think is properly rated but might as well be underrated is Itto. His damage is consistent and his cooldowns aren't too long unlike some characters. The only thing hard about Itto is maintaining his ult uptime, and if you do, you're good. Not to mention Mono Geo still shreds through Abyss floors to this day.

FINALLY KAEYA MAINS ARE GETTING SOME RECOGNITION!!
kaeya is so versatile and a freeze team with him carried me through all of early game. he's my first triple crown and nowadays, when i can just do whatever i want and have fun, i play him as a physical on field. and he has one of the highest NA multipliers in the entire game!! more ppl need to realize how great he is as a unit ngl

Yoimiya is strong af. If Hu Tao didn't exist, if feel Yoimiya would be the one to set the bar for pyro dps. My only complaint is that she cannot trigger her own burst. At least it can vape leftover Xingqiu's or Yelan coordinated attacks

[nhaan]

Since I got Yelan, I have been playing Yoimiya more and I started to realise her potential. She can easily demolish bosses. She helps me a lot in farming for Tighnari

[debamchakraborty]

Yanfei is genuinely a strong 4 star dps and so is heizou and ningguang but at the end they are just 4 star dps hence they have scaling to match their 4 star status, it's not that they are bad we just have better options in almost all 5 star dps.

[ikertamine]

Just wanted to point out that in relation to Kaeya, Kuki’s release made him such a good physical dps as well bc of superconduct. I slapped some pale flame and bloodstained I had laying around with an aquila that was unused and the man just shreds things

[baka_monogatari]

Yoimiya is very F2P/low spender friendly. Giving her a R5 Slingshot can actually output some pretty insane damage. Her cons overall aren't great, but none of them feel required like how Hu Tao's C1 feels like it should be a standard passive and makes for a singnifcantly clunkier playstyle if you don't have it.

[gimbo]

one of my favorite things about yanfei is how smooth she is to play since you can start her charged attack before her third normal even hits the enemy, and she has a very long range.

[kntrl]

mona dps is SO underrated. Her NA can hit targets from range, her charged attacks can hit really hard, her burst is CRAZY for nukes, and her E can attract the nearby mobs to it. The ER passive is also really good, combined with Emblem and she is going to hit HARD.

[acardoza]

Small correction... Kaeya's C2 doesn't provide (up to) an additional 15s of duration, but rather it extends the base duration up to a total of 15s. This still allows for 100% uptime of his burst assuming you're consistently defeating enemies while his burst is up.

[SJHredkingdom]

I've had Yoimiya and loved her ever since her banner first came out, which was on my birth month. Something just clicked with me when I saw her. I use her a majority of the time alongside Yelan, Xingqiu, and Zhongli (or Raiden). She's just amazing, to me.

[ibetterbearoundyou]

Thank you so much for including Yoimiya. Despite her unitarget kit, she's as good as Hu Tao and other Pyro unit if she's built properly (like any other character). Her timing should be better, because what's the point of including her with Kazuha, Nahida and probably other Archons. Make it make sense Hoyoverse!

[Dzyntara]

Proud 74/200 C2 R1 Yoimiya haver (on complete accident)! She's really great and her best set is in a popular domain - and her burst can be popped by Xingqiu and Beidou. She'd be crazy popular if her banners were better timed.

[namehere]

Ah yes, Jean. I remember back in the days when everyone tried to pull for her because ppl wanted her cleansing abilities for the abyss. The struggles to clear floor 5-8 were real back then..
Side note; might be a personal opinion I think the idea of underrated tends to change overtime, so perhaps videos w these kinds of topics should let the audience know which update the info being presented is from (ex. 3.5 part 1 or smith) maybs in the description.

[Domak]

One character who people talked about a lot when he came out but now doesn’t get mentioned much is Ayato.

He’s still a very strong dps and can be run in a lot of teams, but people just don’t talk about him much in the context of gameplay and damage, which is a shame since he does a lot

[krowe]

I'd definitely say Sayu is the most underrated character. In a game where 90% of the content takes place in the overworld, Sayu is an invaluable asset on any team. Anemo resonance, healing, traversal over flat areas, etc. Since EM isn't as useful in the overworld you can slap on ER/ATK/Healing Bonus with fav and VV and you have Genshin's equivalent of a swiss army knife for the open world.
