What makes a good battery character in Genshin Impact?

Batteries work by providing Energy in different ways to their teammates. Typically, you want to use characters with high particle generation on their Elemental Skill, like Xingqiu, or a low cool down on their Elemental Skill, like Bennett. Using weapons that can regenerate energy, like the Favonius weapons, or reset elemental skill cool downs, like the Sacrificial weapons, will also help.

Elemental particles will restore more energy for characters of that elemental type. So you should try to pair battery characters with main DPS characters of the same elemental type. Use Sucrose with Xiao or Diona with Kamisato Ayaka. The exceptions are Electro characters. They tend to have Energy centered kits and can be used on many teams. For example, Fischl can be used as a battery on an team with two other Geo characters supporting Arataki Itto.
