Phase One 5-stars
Eula
Klee
Phase Two 5-stars
Kokomi
Wanderer

Mika

Razor
Thoma
Yanfei
Faruzan
The 4-star characters listed above will be making an appearance next patch in the banners but we don’t know in what order they will be available.
If you want to pull for any of the 5-stars for their kit/abilities, here are our thoughts on them. However, if you want to pull any of them because of non-gameplay reasons like voice acting, lore, or visual design, feel free to pull for any character that you like.
Kokomi works well in Freeze, Bloom, Hyperbloom and Electrocharged teams and she can also be used as a flex character for your party if you want healing. She is arguably the best 5-star among the four that will appear next patch.
Wanderer is a solid Anemo DPS who has a fun aerial playstyle. He synergizes well with Faruzan and works well in hypercarry teams, where he functions as the on-field damage dealer.
Eula is a Cryo unit that deals massive Physical damage with her burst but there are too many enemies with high Physical Resistance and a lot of bosses have weakness phases that are typically vulnerable to elemental damage.
Klee was a popular DPS unit back in 2020 but even though her damage numbers are fine, it is her clunky playstyle that holds her back. Due to her character hitbox being very small, her charged attacks have very limited range. There are many other DPS characters with a far more fluid playstyle that you can consider over her.
