What 4-Star Characters Are Featured on Klee’s Banner in Genshin Impact?
The highly anticipated Klee rerun banner in Genshin Impact 3.8 features three exciting 4-star characters alongside the beloved 5-star Pyro catalyst user, Klee. Specifically, Klee’s banner, known as the “Sparkling Steps Banner”, includes Razor, Thoma, and Mika as its featured 4-star characters. These units have increased drop rates during the banner’s duration, making it an ideal time to acquire constellations for them or to add them to your roster if you don’t already have them.
Understanding the Klee Banner 4-Star Lineup
Razor: The Electro Wolf Boy
Razor is a 4-star Electro claymore user known for his physical damage output. His playstyle is relatively straightforward, making him a good choice for both new and seasoned players. Razor’s Elemental Burst, Lightning Fang, summons a spirit wolf that fights alongside him, increasing his attack speed and electro damage. This makes him a capable main DPS character, particularly in the early stages of the game. His inclusion on the Klee banner means players will have a higher chance of obtaining him and his constellations, which can significantly boost his power.
Thoma: The Pyro Housekeeper
Thoma, a 4-star Pyro polearm user, is a versatile support character. He provides defensive utility through his Elemental Skill, Blazing Blessing, which creates a protective shield. Additionally, his Elemental Burst, Crimson Ooyoroi, provides consistent Pyro application, making him valuable for Vaporize and Melt reaction teams. Thoma’s reappearance on Klee’s banner is welcomed by many players who appreciate his reliable shield and consistent Pyro application. His constellations also enhance his shield strength and energy recharge.
Mika: The Cryo Support
Mika, a 4-star Cryo polearm user, is a recent addition to the roster and focuses on physical damage support. His Elemental Skill, Starfrost Swirl, increases the ATK SPD and Physical DMG of the team, with additional effects based on the team’s composition. His Elemental Burst, Skyfeather Song, provides healing to the team as well as Physical DMG bonuses. Being the third 4-star character featured on this banner, Mika is useful for enhancing the effectiveness of physical damage dealers, like Eula, who is featured on the other 3.8 banner.
Why are these Characters on Klee’s Banner?
The selection of these 4-star characters is not random. Razor and Thoma had experienced a relatively long absence from featured banners, making their inclusion a welcome opportunity for players to finally acquire or add constellations for these two. The presence of Mika is strategic, as he pairs well with Eula, the featured 5-star character on the concurrent banner. Having characters with synergistic potential on separate banners ensures that players can build diverse teams.
