Raiden Shogun

The Inazuman character who is known by several names such as Raiden Ei or Baal, she is the Electro Archon who got the highest number of banner sales on her release.

Strengths

The primary strength of this 5-star Electro character lies in her energy regeneration. She is considered as the universal battery as she is capable of providing the required energy for any element. In addition to her energy regeneration role, she is a top-tier DPS whose playstyle is quite easy and will easily help the players for rotation of other characters and give the required amount of support. Her build is F2P friendly and not only that, she is incredible at C0 unlike other 5-star characters.

Weaknesses

Since she is an Electro character, she cannot provide much of elemental reactions like melt and vape composition. Players have to rely on Cryo characters and if they don’t own any strong Cryo support, she cannot bring out her true potential. Therefore, Raiden Shogun cannot be considered a versatile character.


Kokomi

Sangonomiya Kokomi or as many players call her as the fish lady is a Hydro catalyst user who didn’t receive an overwhelming response when she was released. In fact, she was considered the weakest character but now players might be able to notice a huge change on her.

Strengths

Kokomi will be really useful in the upcoming patches of the game as the meta is shifting into an offensive gameplay. As she is a top-tier healer, she can prove to be very effective in the Three Realms event. Her off-field Hydro application can turn out to be very beneficial for almost all of the elements. Therefore, one can add Kokomi to any team to make the best out of her. Apart from this, she is really easy to build as you just need some HP based artifacts and she’s good to go.

Weaknesses

Coming to the weaknesses of Kokomi, the 5-star Hydro character heavily relies on elemental burst which takes up quite a lot of time during the cooldown period. Moreover, her energy regeneration is very low, therefore, players have to keep the character off-field for a long period of time. She can be easily outclassed by other characters if they are built properly.


Final verdict

Now, talking about the real topic of Raiden Shogun vs Kokomi in Genshin Impact. We initially recommend the characters to choose the character they like but if they are veteran players who are focused on strategic gameplay, then we suggest pulling for the Electro Archon as she is incredibly powerful whose weaknesses are negligible.

On the other hand, Kokomi might turn out to be more useful if players are not able to rotate the characters properly and apply consistent damage. She does her healing job really well and keeping her in your unit is always a safe option. At the end, its up to the players to choose between Raiden Shogun vs Kokomi in Genshin Impact.
