Genshin Impact's version 3.4 introduced a new character in Alhaitham, who is a five-star unit. The Dendro main DPS is an exceptional damage dealer who excels in reaction-based team compositions. While his most popular teams include Nahida, she isn't a necessity for him to perform well in the game.

This article lists the five best Alhaitham teams without Nahida in Genshin Impact.


Burgeon team and 4 other best Alhaitham teams in Genshin Impact without Nahida

1) Alhaitham, Dendro Traveler, Kuki Shinobu, Zhongli- Quicken team

Quicken is a type of Catalyze reaction in Genshin Impact that triggers when Dendro and Electro elements react. It inflicts the enemy with a Quicken aura, which, when attacked by further attacks of either Dendro or Electro, triggers Spread and Aggravate, respectively.

A Quicken team with Alhaitham could include another Dendro character, like Yaoyao, Baizhu, or Dendro traveler, as a substitute for Nahida. Players can use Kuki Shinobu as a four-star Electro applier in this team comp. Other characters like Yae Miko and Beidou can be used, although they might be expensive and low-output, respectively.

The last slot of the team can be used by any suitable support, like a shield-support in Genshin Impact like Zhongli.


2) Alhaitham, Yae Miko, Yelan, Yaoyao- Quick Bloom team

A Quick-Bloom team consists of a Quicken component with Dendro+Electro reactions and a Bloom component with Dendro+Hydro reactions. Although the team can also procure Hyperbloom reactions, the single Hydro component may not be able to generate enough Bloom seeds for the same.

Alhaitham can be paired with Yaoyao, who can act as a healer and trigger Dendro reactions. Yae Miko and Yelan, being quick Electo and Hydro applications, can catalyze reactions for Bloom and Quicken.


3) Alhaitham, Raiden Shogun, Xingqiu, Yelan- Hyperbloom team

An excellent example of a pure Hyperbloom team in Genshin Impact with Alhaitham would be with Raiden Shogun, Xingqiu, and Yelan. As one of the best reaction-based teams since the introduction of Dendro, Hyperbloom teams are great for all Dendro characters.

Alhaitham plays the role of Dendro DPS in the team. Yelan and Xingqiu trigger Hydro reactions through quick attacks and generate a lot of Bloom seeds. An Elemental Mastery-based build for Raiden ensures that strong Hyperbloom reactions are triggered.


4) Alhaitham, Nilou, Sangonomiya Kokomi, Kazuha- Nilou Bloom team

Bloom teams featuring Nilou, have been popular since her release in Genshin Impact. The release of fast Dendro appliers in later patches further boosted this. Bloom teams with Alhaitham and Kokomi can be used as influential damage dealers. Another Dendro character like Nahida can ensure more Dendro applications.

Kokomi also heals effectively and can counter the minimal damage caused by Bloom's effects on the players.


5) Alhaitham, Thoma, Xingqiu, Yelan- Burgeon team

Like Hyperbloom, Burgeon is also dependent on the triggering of Bloom first. Since Dendro and Pyro reactions can also lead to Burning, Thoma is a good character for Burgeon teams, unlike Pyro characters like Xiangling.

In an Alhaitham Burgeon team, rotations of Hydro characters like Yelan and Xingqiu can create many Bloom seeds that can lead to Burgeon when attacked with Pyro. Thoma's role in this team can also be as a shielder.

Genshin Impact has been releasing new characters and reruns since its release to keep the players engaged with new content and its ever-expanding map. The latest update and the release of Alhaitham and Yaoyao have challenged players to strengthen their character and skills.
