A new Genshin Impact chart revealed the most popular characters for the Spiral Abyss endgame activity during the first phase of Version 4.3. Genshin Impact players who complete the update's Spiral Abyss challenges will earn various rewards, including 5-star artifacts and Primogems.
The Spiral Abyss is updated twice a month in Genshin Impact, so players can expect a new lineup of challenges for each of the two phases. Spiral Abyss contains 12 floors, with each floor being progressively more difficult than the previous one. Genshin Impact players who perform well within the chambers of each Spiral Abyss floor will receive Abyssal Stars, which unlock a bounty of rewards associated with each floor. Members of the community often find their optimal team comp for Spiral Abyss by searching for online rankings accumulated by fellow Genshin Impact fans.
Genshin Impact Leak Shows Models for Three Upcoming Skins
Recent Genshin Impact leaks are teasing the in-game appearances for three skins expected to be coming to the game with Version 4.4.
Reddit user HayashiSawaryo shared a new chart that ranks Genshin Impact characters by their overall usage and effectiveness in the first phase of Spiral Abyss in Version 4.3. The popular Liyue Archon Zhongli leads the rankings with a usage rate of over 85%, meaning the Geo Archon was the most used character in the Spiral Abyss. Dendro Archon Nahida is the second most popular pick for Spiral Abyss at a 75% usage rate, while Hydro Archon Furina rounds out the top three at 74%. Moreover, Neuvillette is the fourth most popular character in the first phase of the domain, completing the most potent team comp for the current lineup of Spiral Abyss floors and challenges.
Most Popular Genshin Impact Characters in Version 4.3 Phase 1's Spiral Abyss
- Zhongli
- Nahida
- Furina
- Neuvillette
A team comp featuring Zhongli, Nahida, Furina, Neuvillette may prove to be optimal in Spiral Abyss, but players who don't have these characters still have several options for their team comp. Characters that were popular in Genshin Impact Version 4.2, such as Baizhu and Kaedehara Kazuha, are still viable options. Kazuha's support skills and Anemo abilities allow him to deal incredible damage by activating elemental reactions. These reactions will help players save time in each chamber in order to complete Spiral Abyss challenges and earn Abyssal Stars.
The second phase of Genshin Impact Version 4.3 will begin on January 9, and the next Spiral Abyss reset will arrive on January 16. Genshin Impact Version 4.4 leaks suggest the game's next major update will go live on January 31 with new characters, events, and quests. If the new characters bring compelling move sets, the Spiral Abyss rankings could see these characters rank on top during February 2024.
