Venti is a 5-star Anemo character from Mondstadt in Genshin Impact. He is a ranged character who uses a Bow and deals decent damage from a distance. His Elemental Skill is also quite unique as it generates a wind current in front of him, dealing Anemo DMG. However, the most important aspect of his gameplay is his Elemental Burst. Upon casting it, Venti summons a huge void that pulls all the lighter enemies towards it and deals a lot of Anemo DMG. This lets you group up all the foes in one place so your Main DPS can have an easier time fighting them.
How to Play Zhongli
Here’s how to optimally use Venti within a rotation:
- Switch to Venti after applying either Hydro, Pyro, Electro, or Cryo element on the enemy.
- Cast his Elemental Burst to pull all enemies towards it and swirl the applied element.
- Use his Elemental Skill to generate Energy and switch to your Main DPS for action.
Should you pull Venti?
Yes, Venti is worth summoning if your account lacks a dedicated crowd control unit and you struggle against mobs. However, it is worth noting that he isn’t useful against heavier enemies as they cannot be pulled by his Elemental Burst.
