5 Best Characters for DPS in Genshin Impact 2.7

Not all DPS characters are created equal. Check this article to find out more about the best single target DPS characters to boss on Genshin Impact 2.7.

There are two types of DPS characters in Genshin Impact 2.7. One with good AoE damage that can hit multiple enemies at the same time, and one with high single target damage which is useful against high HP bosses.

While both are useful, the latter is far more important, as hard content in Genshin Impact 2.7 usually only has one boss in the final round.

Therefore, in this article, we will present the 5 best characters for single target DPS in Genshin Impact 2.7.

List of DPS Characters in Genshin Impact 2.7

Genshin Impact 2.7 has various characters in their roster that everyone can build to fulfill different roles.

However, not many can fulfill the role of DPS or as the main damage dealer in the party. DPS characters have abilities that have the potential to cause maximum damage to enemies. They are the main source of damage output in a team.

During this period, Genshin Impact released several DPS characters who excelled in their roles. This article will discuss the five best DPS characters for single target enemies in Genshin Impact 2.7.

Kamisato Ayaka

Ayaka is probably the best boss killer in Genshin Impact 2.7, with CRIT DMG as her boost stat. At level 80, he can gain up to 88.4 percent bonus CRIT DMG, which allows him to focus more on Crit Rate.

Its Cryo element is so good, players can not only unlock extra crit levels with resonance, but they can also freeze enemies with Hydro support. This allowed Ayaka to shine in a frozen team and focus completely on offense.

Her Elemental Burst summons a Cryo slash wave that deals heavy damage to enemies. Combine that with Ayaka's Cryo-infused attacks and all the bosses will be destroyed in no time.

Hu Tao

Another character with a CRIT DMG increase stat, Hu Tao is neck and neck with Ayaka in the race for single target damage. However, the reason Hu Tao was in 2nd place was because he needed Hydro's support to activate Vaporize. Ayaka, on the other hand, can rack up high numbers on her own.

On top of that, Hu Tao's constant need to be under 50 percent HP also made him reliant on shields, which in turn limited his team composition. He needed someone to protect him and couldn't go with a healer character.

Ganyu

There aren't many characters in Genshin to compare with Ganyu in the ranged damage department. With a CRIT DMG increase stat and some AoE skills, he can deal excellent damage even at C0.

Overall, she performs largely identically to Ayaka in Cryo team comps, freezing enemies to deal continuous high crit damage.

Ganyu's charged attacks are different from other arc characters in the game. His charged attacks have different levels and each level has a different damage multiplier. This is especially useful against enemies with a weak point, as all bow shots against it are guaranteed crit.

eula

eula is the best Physical DPS character in Genshin Impact 2.7, there is no comparison. Most of the DPS comes from physical attacks and Elemental Burst.

Similar to the other characters on this list, his Ascension stat is also CRIT DMG. Her kit revolves around her Burst, which allows Eula's attacks to stack damage for the duration of the skill. When it ends, all damage is unleashed in the form of a massive AoE explosion, dealing Phys damage.

Her Cryo app also grants access to Superconduct's elemental reactions, which increases her physical damage even further. She is a cryo DPS that can easily trigger a superconducting reaction on enemies to amplify her overall physical DMG.

Therefore, it's best to build up Eula's physical damage as her ability doesn't help in dealing Cryo damage at all. Her signature weapon Song of Broken Pines also deals additional Physical DMG Bonuses.

Arataki Itto

Itto has the potential to deal tremendous damage with his attacks, however, he needs a lot of support from other Geo Characters. This is the reason why the character is only 5 in the list.

The abilities work together very well, with Elemental Skills taunting enemies and Elemental Burst increasing overall DPS. It primarily deals damage using its Charged attacks, which are boosted by stacking Super Strength from Normal attacks and Elemental Skills.

Her skills scale based on DEF, which makes crafting a good artifact set for her quite easy. Arataki Itto works best when added to a Mono-Geo team like Gorou, Albedo and many others.

When paired with the right party members, Arataki Itto can finish off a target with just his brute strength.

Arataki Itto's Elemental Skill acts as a taunt where he can increase his overall DPS by casting his Elemental Burst.

The best way to deal maximum damage with Arataki Itto is to spam Charge attacks after stacking Superstrength from his normal attacks and Elemental Skills.
