After an eventful 20 days with the Yae banner in Genshin Impact, players will get a chance to wish on two coinciding characters in the second half of 2.5. Raiden Shogun and Sangonomiya Kokomi will be making an appearance in the Event wish banner for a second time alongside their respective weapons.

Starting March 8, 2022, everyone can opt for either of these two Genshin Impact Characters, as both of them can be top-tier support for any party. With Kokomi being based mainly on providing healing for her team, Raiden can accumulate a lot of energy for herself and other members of her party.

With so many characters and features to choose from, there are bound to be a few questions like Is Raiden Shogun worth wishing on?

The answer is Yes.


Raiden Shogun is a great addition to any party in Genshin Impact

Raiden Shogun was first made playable in version 2.1 alongside Kujou Sara, which remains the most spent banner in the game even today. The Electro Archon wields a polearm, where her skills tend to scale based on the total energy recharge from her weapons and artifacts. This makes her relatively easier to build.

Her skills involve accumulating energy for her entire party and dealing a massive burst of damage to enemies with just one hit. Due to her versatile and F2P-friendly nature, players have the freedom to build Raiden Shogun with multiple different artifacts and weapons combinations.

In the upcoming banner of 2.5, the Electro Archon will be paired up with Kujou Sara, who seems to synergize well with Raiden Shogun's talents and stats. Players will have a chance to get multiple constellations on Sara, therefore making her one of the most powerful support for a DPS Raiden Shogun build.

Raiden's burst skill, Musou Isshin, deals damage to enemies based on the number of bursts activated beforehand. Each hit on enemies during Raiden's burst phase will grant her and other party members a fraction of their energy. This works inside the coop as well, where different players will slowly get their burst refilled.

Raiden Shogun is overall a great character to wish on. Since her damage scaling is based on energy recharge, players can focus on one stat and go for both DPS and support build at the same time.

The second half of Genshin Impact 2.5 is scheduled to go live on March 8, 2022.
