The newest playable character to arrive in Genshin Impact is Eula. As the star of her very own "Born of Ocean Swell" Banner, she's a 5-star Cryo who wields claymores in combat. However, some fans may be wondering if they should spend Primogems on trying to pull Eula through the Wish system - or if they should save up for one of Version 1.6's characters instead.
Eula has already proven to be a popular and powerful character. One Genshin Impact player even leveled Eula up completely in under four minutes. In a DPS role, Eula can hit monsters hard and cause massive AoE damage. Her Cryo skills are also great for causing Elemental Reactions like Frozen, Melt, and Superconduct. Because of this, she should make a great addition to most teams.
Overall, Eula is well worth pulling through Genshin Impact's Wish system during her Banner run. With Eula's best character build, she can be even stronger - which, again, makes her a valuable DPS character to have on a team. For players who may be missing a 5-star character or a good Cryo already, Eula is an excellent choice. However, some players may choose to skip Eula's Banner and wait for the rumored 1.6 characters instead. Here's why.
Why Genshin Impact Fans May Choose To Skip Eula For 1.6 Characters
While Eula is undoubtedly strong, some players may already be using Ganyu as a Cryo DPS character. If that's the case, they may prefer waiting for rumored 1.6 characters like Kazuha and Yoimiya instead. So far, it looks like Eula may edge out Ganyu in of Cryo damage output, but it's still a bit too early to tell if this will prove to be the case longterm.
Of course, this is quite a gamble because Genshin Impact 1.6 characters still aren't officially confirmed. This early, there's also no way to tell if they'll actually be better than Eula - or if they'll have underwhelming attributes like Zhongli did upon release. Due to Genshin Impact's Wish pull rates, though, the odds of getting Eula are pretty slim. Ultimately, this will be up to the player to decide if they really want to spend Primogems on trying to get Eula or save the in-game currency up for a future 1.6 Banner.
No matter what players decide, Eula is still a powerful character in Genshin Impact. For anyone looking for a 5-star DPS character - and especially one that specializes in the Cryo element - Eula is well worth trying to pull right now.
