Version 4.4's second round of Character Trials is here.
This time there aren't any new characters but there's always Yae Miko and she's a welcome presence in any banner run she's a part of. Her strong point is that her damage mainly comes from her skill which can be refreshed every 4s making it have 100% uptime. It also deals heavy amounts of damage on its own but combined with reactions especially the best in the game, Hyperbloom the damage Yae Miko can produce is immense!
Conversely there is Xiao. In the beginning when he first released Xiao was highly sought after. But over time and especially with worsening internet over the last few years it's become harder and harder to properly play him. Xiao's damage mainly comes from his Plunge Attack during his Burst. Bursts require energy particles to recharge and Xiao is unable to generate them while in his Burst form meaning he requires Support Characters to help him maintain uptime. Doing Plunge Attacks is also rather difficult with lag. You have to use his enhanced jump through his Burst but sometimes these jumps don't trigger properly and other times the attack doesn't trigger while he's in mid-air so you don't plunge.
As for the rest, Yaoyao is probably the best of the three. She can heal and she provides Dendro application which pairs well with Yae for Quicken reactions, just slightly worse than Hyperbloom but that's easily fixed by adding a Hydro Character. On the other hand Ningguang just like Xiao was a good character in the beginning but over time the Geo element slumped compared to others. Not only that but with the newer character Navia who benefits from Geo's only reaction Ningguang's viability has greatly suffered. Finally Xinyan who is technically a shield character. Her shield can double for applying Pyro but only if you triggered it by hitting 3 enemies. It also doesn't last very long or take many hits.
