Top 3 Character Pulls in Genshin Impact 5.6 Update
Image via HoYoverse Genshin Impact 5.6 is finally here, and with it comes a brand-new character plus a slate of powerful re-runs. Whether you're a new player or a veteran, choosing who to pull for can feel overwhelming, especially with Primogems on the line. Here's an easy guide to help you decide which character banners are actually worth it in Version 5.6. 1. Escoffier – Cryo Utility Queen Stats: New 5-star | Cryo | Polearm | Sub-DPS/Support Escoffier is the breakout star of 5.6. Her kit offers powerful Cryo and Hydro resistance shred, making her ideal for Freeze or mono-element comps. But what sets her apart? She heals while supporting — a rare combo that opens doors for synergy with high-risk, high-reward characters like Ayaka or Neuvillette. Why pull? Insane support value for Cryo/Hydro comps Solid healing = less reliance on dedicated healers Future-proof team flexibility Only pull if: You run (or want to run) Freeze teams You have Ayaka, Neuvillette, or Furina Who Should You Pull In 5.6 ?? [Genshin impact] 2. Navia – Geo's DPS Darling Stats : Re-run | Geo | Claymore | Main DPS Navia returns, and she's still as lethal as ever. With massive Geo bursts and flexible team-building potential, she fits into most rosters with ease. The best part? She doesn't need constellations to shine. Equip her with a good Crit Rate build and let her rip. Why pull? Powerful and beginner-friendly Great with supports like Furina, Zhongli, Bennett Works even at low investment Only pull if: You need a main DPS You enjoy Geo or flexible team comps 3. Kinich – High Risk, High Reward Stats: Re-run | Dendro | Sword | Main DPS Kinich is flashy, fun, and full of potential — but he's not for everyone. His strength lies in Burning and Burgeon teams, which means he needs specific support units to truly pop. If you have those? You're golden. If not? He may underwhelm. Why pull? Great Spiral Abyss DPS Fits into elemental reaction teams Can delete bosses if built right Only pull if: You already have key supports like Nahida, Xiangling You enjoy reaction-based playstyles Final Verdict If you're short on Primogems, Escoffier offers the most unique value in 5.6. Navia is the safest long-term investment for DPS roles. Pull Kinich only if your team supports are ready, and go for Raiden if you're still filling core roles. Spend smart — and may the RNG gods bless your pulls.
