What Are TEAM ROTATIONS & Why Are They IMPORTANT? Genshin Basics EXPLAINED!

Genshin Impact combat mechanics heavily rely on how teams work together to bring out their highest damage. Team rotations are a big part of this, but do you know how team rotations work? This video will teach you what are team rotations, how to optimize team rotations, and extra tips on how to improve your damage and gameplay with team rotations. #GenshinImpact #GenshinGuide

As an AR56 I still often do the "Random Bullshit Go" Rotation

[brunnocosta]

I wish Genshin had a more neutral place to try new team comps and test rotations instead of just beating up random mobs and bosses that either die too fast or have too much invincibility frames. I think Masanori was supposed to be that but he literally has both of these problems at the same time -_-

1. Put on Zhongli’s shield, and be sure to place his pillar down where it won’t break so it can proc tenacity
2. Gorou’s E or Q (whichever is ready)
3. Albedo’s flower for that nice sub-dps
4. Itto goes ham

Your content is so chill and makes complicated mechanics simple and digestable while not leaving the important details out. Cant wait for your channel to grow and get more attention !

Honestly, the bar graph visual used with the Hu Tao team makes everything so much easier to understand. I wish that type of graphic was used more often!

I usually play Raiden national in the abyss and I usually start with Raiden E > Xingqiu E Q E > Bennett Q E (particles for XL) > Xiangling E Q (while catching particles from Bennett) > Raiden Q > repeat. This team is so fun and has carried me a lot throughout different patches of the abyss.

One important thing I think people should learn with Anemo supports is that Anemo infusion has Elemental Priority.

So far this is the best Genshin channel I have seen so far. There's so many out there but you make yours so easy to understand, so simple to watch, no need to skip anything. Your videos have been so helpful for me and my gf, we have improved a lot thanks to you. Keep going all the great job 👏🏻.

Would you mind making a Rosaria, Barbara and Chongyun updated guide please?

I use Yoimiya, Raiden, Xingqiu, and Thoma as my absolute favorite team. Definitely not meta, but it's really fun being able to run around with all the colors! The team rotation that I've come up with looks like this:

Raiden E -- Thoma E -- Xingqiu Q, E, (E) -- Thoma Q -- Yoimiya E, NA15, Q -- Thoma E -- Raiden Q [full duration]

I would also say that (in addition to the things Sevy says) the 'Snapshot' mechanics, Weapons, and Artifacts also affect how I think about rotations. For example, Xingqiu's burst doesn't snapshot, so I use him before Thoma with Noblesse Oblige. Also, I still use Shimenawa for Yoimiya, but my supports' weapons' allow me to always be able to use her burst right after her skill. Of course, the only reason why I bother with it is because Yoimiya can buff Raiden with her passive. It's so much to consider, but the feeling I get when creating a team with my favorite characters makes it all worth it!

I experimented with Ayato, Kokomi, Sucrose, and Zhongli. My Yunjin is not levelled so I can't use her with Ayato and Bennett is in a different party. I had to buff Ayato in a different way.

I always start with Zhongli's E, followed by Ayato's burst, then Kokomi's E, Sucrose's Q, then Sucrose's E, and finally Ayato's E. Zhongli and Sucrose shred resistances, Zhongli provides a shield, Sucrose gives an attack bonus through Thrilling Tales, and Ayato's burst gives me normal attack increase. Depending on the situation, since I don't have much crowd control, I can start with Zhongli's Q to petrify enemies, giving me enough time to set up at least the first two units. It's a fun experiment that I can play around with by switching one unit for another depending on my interest.

PS. I only played for less than a year, and I only learned rotations and artifacts when I got to Inazuma. I studied everything because of Raiden. I used to mess up a lot, and I mean A LOT, since I will lose to a boss more than 10 times.

I have a freeze team for Childe that I really enjoy and this is how my rotation goes:

Childe E to apply hydro then quickly switch to Kazuha E to swirl. After that I switch to Noblesse Diona EQ then Kazuha Q to swirl the Cryo for Ganyu's EQ which comes next. Since the hydro VV bonus is still there, Childe Burst then switch to Kazuha E again to swirl the leftover hydro aura. Go back to Childe and go wild with his E only switch out when Ganyu's ult is finished. It's just a repeat if enemies are still around. I managed to continuously do this if my Kazuha has Favonius sword for the extra particles. By the time I start the whole rotation again all bursts are full.

This team of mine only has 4* weapons but it has carried me in the abyss these last few cycles.

This vid is why I love the internet so much, thank you for making me fall in love with this game, you can’t just no watch this and be really excited as a new player, and when you finally execute the rotation, you’ve been working on for weeks is prob the most satisfying part. Keep up the great work ❤️

[ddog]

Been wanting to see a general team rotation video like this, so this is much appreciated

[Henrink]

Just wanted to make a comment to appreciate the favonious line of weapons.
Thank you so much for making rotations more consistent, and needing less ER <3

[FangirlKazu]

I just found out about your channel and I want to thank you. I'm playing since January 2021, I'm pretty sure I have good enough characters and builds to clear the abyss or new weekly bosses, but I can't because I'm not having an efficent playstyle. I rarely see Youtubers making guides on playstyle/rotations/reactions other than for the most popular team combs (which I don't like). I was very happy to find this video of yours and will make sure to study it!

Thanks a lot!

[saccharinecrystals]

one of my fav teams is hu tao, xiangling, kazuha and xingqiu!! the rotation is:
1. xiangling E
2. kazuha E and Q (E only if i need to group enemies up, otherwise i go straight to Q)
3. xingqiu E and Q
4. hu tao E, charged attacks and Q before her infusion ends, , also xiangling Q after that if the enemies aren't dead yet, but they usually are

[cristianocdaniel]

I'm trying to level the friendship with Ayato, so my party this month is: Ayato, Beidou/Raiden, Yunjin, Sucrose/Jean. I know the current issue with electro-charged, but is one of my favorite reactions. I still didn't try Ayaka with Ayato, because it feels like i'm losing their potential not having them on field. But Rosaria, on the other hand, is pretty cool with him.

[forscythejones]

VV Thoma Hu tao comp. For the life of me, I cannot swirl pyro after xingqiu's skills, so I swirl pyro at the start of the rotation - which is not optimal. But for me, it is the most consistent.

[NatWarrior]

This is easily one of the most straightforward and concise explanations I've seen of team rotations ever 😭 as someone that listens to a lot of theorycrafting content a lot of this is so accurate but said in such a short amount of time it almost makes me upset but in a good way
