Version 3.0 of Genshin Impact is now here and it brings its share of new features among which you will find new characters. Collei is one of them and we will discover how to play it through this guide.
Collei, a Support Dendro
Collei is the new 4-star rarity character available in Genshin Impact. She will have a support role and will therefore be the first in this role for the Dendro element. Its main strength lies in its ease of applying the Dendro element to your enemies in order to achieve the new elemental reactions that are present. Like all supports, it will not be necessary to rely on its normal attacks. Therefore, we will directly approach its elementary skill which is quite simple since it sends a floral ring which inflicts Dendro damage and which comes back to you like a boomerang . If this one is quite simple and doesn't seem incredible, one of his passives will allow him to make it much more interesting. Indeed, his Foliage Return talent activates the Germ effect inflicting Dendro damage continuously. Thus, you will once again be able to facilitate the elemental reactions around this element.
Its outburst is also quite simple since it will create an area inflicting Dendro damage to the enemies there. In addition, you will inflict them when the spell is cast. However, this will allow you to perform about three reactions per enemy in the area because there is a cooldown between each reaction that can be made. Even if the duration of the zone can be extended by the other passive, you will not make more reactions, however, you will indeed use its unleash to help your team to carry out reactions related to the Dendro element.

To play alongside:
collei
Tighnari is a good complement to Collei to allow him to have access to the elemental resonance "Creeper" which will increase elemental mastery. Collei can also help Tighnari by providing him with other means of inflicting Dendro damage or providing him with a little additional elemental mastery.
Fischl
Fischl is a very good complement to Collei since she can perform the Catalyst elemental reaction by combining the Electro and Dendro elements.
Diona
Diona can be playable with Collei as she provides healing, shield, and particles to allow your team to easily cast your characters' elemental rampages.
Of course, these characters are only examples and do not constitute all the playable characters with Collei but just a small representation of what you can do. Your imagination will allow you to create your own teams and test according to your preferences.
