How much do Constellations matter in Genshin Impact?

Not everyone need to be at C6.

Constellations are a hot topic among the Gensin Impact community. Constellations make character's stronger, and for some, getting to a certain Constellation level feels mandatory. Just how do you determine when to pull for Constellations and when to save your money.

Do Constellations matter in 4-star characters in Genshin Impact?

It's much easier to gather Constellations for 4-star characters like Xingqiu, as you are guaranteed a 4-star weapon or character every 10 pulls. Pulling on a banner that features these characters is easy to get, and if you play long term, you will ultimately max out many 4-star constellations without much trouble.

Honestly, you should try to get full Constellations on any 4-star you use, as they can sometimes become more powerful than even some C1 Five-stars. With the exception of characters like Bennett, who has a catch to his C6, most 4-stars being maxed out is a great help to your team.

Do Constellations matter in 5-star characters in Genshin Impact?

Deciding whether to C6 a 5-star is where things get tricky. To C6 a 5-star, you are looking at spending over $1,000, even if you are lucky enough to win several 50/50 pulls. Many characters are also powerful enough to completely destroy the Spiral Abyss at C0, as can be seen with Raiden Shogun.

While any C6 5-star will be overpowered, it's generally not worth it to spend that much money. Some 5-stars like Zhongli can benefit from hitting C2, but this will only apply based on the team you are using.

The rule of thumb is to check on each character's individual needs, but for the most part, going all the way to C6 on a 5-star character simply isn't needed.

I start my day by exploring Teyvat in Genshin Impact and end it after reorganizing my apartment in Final Fantasy XIV. I am a diehard fan of N64 era games and will forever feel betrayed that Megaman Legends didn't finish. Outside of gaming, I have spend my time collecting manga, collecting anime figures, and watching anime with my naked cat.
