History GameBreaker / GenshinImpact

'''IMPORTANT NOTE:''' Game Breakers are based on how they perform in endgame content such as Spiral Abyss. This is not a player's guide, so keep entries as short and concise as possible and avoid unnecessary WallsOfText. Also, for characters specifically, please do not list "convenient" abilities for easier tasking in their entries because they do not count as game-breaking abilities by default.

*** Quite possibly the most game-changing C6 in the entire game, creating a team healer, quickswap DPS and attack buffer in a single unit. With it, Furina gains six empowered Hydro-infused Normal Attacks when she uses her Elemental Skill. In the default mode, each hit gives the party a powerful heal-over-time. However, the alternate mode buffs these six empowered Normal Attacks even further, giving Furina a damage output window where she rivals C6 Yelan.

*** Furina's early Constellations are extremely powerful. C1 increases her starting damage buff to 37.5% and her maximum damage buff to 100%. C2 causes her to build up her Elemental Burst buff ''extremely'' quickly, and any stacks beyond the limit instead go towards increasing her Max HP, dramatically powering up both modes of her Elemental Skill.

** Baizhu is a subtly powerful support character with a lot of versatility, able to heal, shield, and apply Dendro very consistently. While he might have poor damage output and high energy costs, his [[JackOfAllTrades flexibility and wide range of applications]] make him a very desirable addition to any Dendro team, and even in non-Dendro teams he remains a solid support pick.

*** Baizhu's Burst grants a weak shield every 2.5 seconds that, upon expiring or being destroyed, deals Dendro damage in an area around the player. Said shield also heals the active character, and while the shields are easy to break, they provide reliable interruption resistance. Additionally, with his A4 passive, Baizhu provides a large damage boost to the active character's Dendro reactions whenever his Burst heals them, letting someone like Alhaitham deal even more damage while protecting them from harm and applying extra Dendro for more reactions.

** Baizhu is a subtly powerful support character with a lot of versatility, able to heal, shield, and apply Dendro very consistently. While he might not excel at any one particular role, his [[JackOfAllTrades flexibility and wide range of applications]] make him a very desirable addition to any Dendro team, and even in non-Dendro teams he remains a solid support pick.

*** While it obviously goes without saying that maxing a limited five star character's Constellations makes them [[PurposefullyOverpowered completely overpowered]], Furina stands heads and shoulders above even other C6 characters, with the extra healing and damage from her final Constellation turning her into what can best be described as a [[MasterOfAll very tanky, energy-independent, Main DPS[=/=]Buffer[=/=]Off DPS[=/=]Healer with excellent open world traversal utility]], who competes in each of those fields with fully whaled out specialists in them.

*** After unlocking Neuvillette's C1, Neuvillette gains massive interruption resistance while channeling and firing ''Equitable Judgement'', enabling him to keep up damage even while absorbing hits with his substantial HP pool.

** Arlecchino undoubtedly lives up to her hype as the Fourth Harbinger, dishing out some insane damage output thanks to her Masque of the Red Death state from obtaining a Bond of Life, which infuses her normal attacks with unoverridable Pyro and increases her attack power. Her unique character passive grants her a hefty ''40%'' Pyro damage bonus just for being in combat, with the downside of not being able to heal outside of casting her Burst, Balemoon Rising, but the sheer damage output she can put out more than compensates for it, and even that can become a negligible issue with a good shielder and dodging, essentially turning her into an unstoppable one-woman wildfire that can easily take down any foe that isn't resistant to, or immune to Pyro, and even ''that'' can be dealt with by giving her an off-field sub-DPS that isn't Pyro, like Xingqiu or Fischl.

Additionally, she is tankier than she looks thanks to her second passive, which increases her RES by up to 20% for every 100 ATK she has that exceeds 1000.

*** The most frontloaded damage profile in the entire game. Almost all her damage is in concentrated in her Elemental Skill, which has two charges, a charge generated every 10 seconds, and scaling rivaling other main DPS characters' ''Elemental Bursts'', all available instantly at the press of a button. When at full stacks with team buffs set up, the amount of damage it deals can be ''absurd'', taking huge chunks out of the health of '''bosses'''.
*** The rest of Navia's kit synergises perfectly with her Elemental Skill. When held down, her Elemental Skill draws in Elemental Shards, making it easy to collect them, and the shields provided will let her take a hit or two while she lines up her shot. Then, after she fires, she gains a Geo Infusion for 4 seconds on her basic attacks, letting her trigger more Crystallize reactions when paired with the proper allies. Finally, her Elemental Burst rains down a Geo cannon barrage that will create even more shards for her to work with.

*** Sucrose has a particular synergy with Xiangling in her unique ability to be able to *swirl Guoba*. Simply press her elemental skill as soon as you see the exclamation mark appear above Guoba's head, and Sucrose will proc a pyro-swirl off of him. This allows Sucrose to be able to perform the "double-swirl" tech even easier than Kazuha does. You simply apply a non-Pyro aura to your target, drop Guoba, swirl both your target and Guoba and you now have Viridescent Venerer's RES shred affecting both your first elemental aura and Pyro. Since Xiangling is the game's most classic reaction-based DPS, she dovetails perfectly with Sucrose's ability to Pyro swirl her panda (for some reason) as well as benefiting from Sucrose's massive EM share.
