Top 5 Healers in Genshin Impact
Here are some of the best healers in Genshin Impact.
Bennett

- Rating: 4-star
- Element: Pyro
- Healing Scaled To: Max HP
- Healing Source: Burst
As Genshin Impact’s premier healer unit, Bennett does it all. He heals the team incredibly quickly with his Elemental Burst, Fantastic Voyage, along with providing a potent damage buff while in its radius. Bennett’s strongest point is his Elemental Burst which provides healing up to 70% of your health. Being the first in the list, it is to be noted that this is only because Bennett not only heals but also provides very good support to the team through his buff.
Jean

- Rating: 5-star sword-user
- Element: Anemo
- Healing Scaled To: Attack
- Healing Source: Burst, Normal Attack (passive talent)
Jean is a character that can work as either a DPS or support while also acting as the main healer in the party. Her incredibly potent burst heal provides incredible crowd control with her Elemental Skill, Gale Blade.
Sayu

- Rating: 4-star claymore-user
- Element: Anemo
- Healing Scaled To: Attack
- Healing Source: Burst, Skill (passive talent)
Sayu is the newest healer added in update 2.0. With her healing tied to her elemental burst, as well as her skill via her passive talents (when she initiates a swirl reaction), all of this makes for a fairly convenient healer. Like with Bennett, Sayu’s first Constellation ignores the HP limit of the active party member and will both heal the character and have its other effect.
In Sayu’s case, it will also deal with Anemo damage to nearby foes. Given that her damage and defensive potential aren’t bad as an Anemo claymore user so players may lose out on a lot of healing if they skip out on using her skill. Not to mention that her skill holds out for a really long time. Therefore it is best to use her on the field more than off-field.
Editor’s Note: As a Genshin Impact player myself, I can say that Diona deserves the second or third spot on this list. But, since this list is based on our writer’s opinion, we won’t be changing it.
Qiqi

- Rating: 5-star sword-user
- Element: Cryo
- Healing Scaled To: Attack
- Healing Source: Skill, Burst
Qiqi uses her Elemental Skill and Burst to apply Cryo to enemies while healing her team based on her max Health. Both her elemental burst and skill provide passive healing, meaning that it is easy to activate her skill and switch to a different character. Qiqi’s healing deals some serious Cryo damage to enemies while she is off-field, giving her the edge. The only downfall is that her skill cooldown is just too long making her the 4th best healer in the game after Sayu.
Barbara

- Rating: 4-star catalyst-user
- Element: Hydro
- Healing Scaled To: Max HP
- Healing Source: Skill, Burst
Barbara is the first character in the game that every player uses as a healer since she’s a free character. It would not be a healer article without mentioning her name. Thus making her the 5th best healer in the game.
Her Elemental Skill and Burst heal the whole team based on her max HP. Barbara’s downside is that she only operates as a healer. Her healing improves by investing in Max HP artifacts, and increasing elemental mastery helps to make Barbara double as a Hydro enabler (applying wet status with her attacks).
Picking the right healer to join your team is very necessary because every DPS needs good support.
