In Genshin Impact, Hu Tao is often called the best DPS character due to her Pyro Polearm proficiency. However, since Hu Tao gains a damage boost from low HP, she is challenging to play. She needs a strong team to be supported appropriately. In this Genshin Impact guide, we will highlight some of the best Hu Tao team compositions for high DPS.
Best Team Compositions for Hu Tao in Genshin Impact
Here are the best team compositions for Hu Tao in Genshin Impact.
1. Hu Tao + Xingqiu + Zhongli + Albedo
Two geo-characters can be used on the team if players wish to concentrate on Vaporize elements namely Albedo, and Zhongli. In addition to boosting shield strength by 15%, Geo-Resonance also increases damage to characters wearing shields by 15%.

There is an ability in Albedo’s passive abilities called Homuncular Nature that gains 125 elemental mastery for nearby party members. This ability is advantageous to Hu Tao, who constantly causes vaporization on the field.
Character Details and Position
Characters | Position |
---|---|
Hu Tao | DPS |
Albedo | Shielder & Enabler |
Zhongli | Shielder |
Xingqiu | Enabler & Healer |
Team Advantages
- Top shielder in-game
- The effects of geo resonance are increased when shielded
- Xingqiu Healing
- Geo passive damage high
- Continuous shielding with shards
2. Hu Tao + Fischl + Beidou + Xingqiu
In addition to providing Hu Tao with Vaporize reactions, Xingqiu‘s Elemental Burst also makes him excellent support. The Oz & Burst of Fischl and Beidou both cause off-field damage.

Hu Tao is, therefore, able to stay on the field for much of the battle with this team. Fischl could also be a battery that Beidou uses to recharge her energy so that she can run the Spiral Abyss for longer bursts. Hu Tao can also utilize these Electro characters to create Overload reactions for extra DPS.
Character Details and Position
Characters | Position |
---|---|
Hu Tao | DPS |
Fischl | Enabler |
Beidou | Shielder, Enabler & sub DPS |
Xingqiu | Enabler & Healer |
Team Advantages
- An effective counter-shield
- Electro-passive damage with Fischl’s ability
- Xingqiu’s healing
- Different elemental reactions: electro-charged, over-charged, & vaporize
- Electro resonance boosts energy recharge
3. Hu Tao + Kazuha + Xingqiu + Xiangling
You might already be noticing a pattern here in the best teams for Hu Tao. They increase her damage through both elemental reactions and elemental mastery. The same applies to Kazuha‘s team.

Kazuha’s burst can create a Pyro swirl and reduce resistance when Xiangling‘s burst causes Pyro effects on enemies. Hu Tao’s skill will then generate vaporized reactions with the help of Xingqiu‘s Hydro burst, destroying all enemies in its path.
Character Details and Position
Characters | Position |
---|---|
Hu Tao | DPS |
Kazuha | Enabler |
Xingqiu | Enabler & Healer |
Xiangling | Enabler |
Team Advantages
- Kazuha’s swirl reaction for Pyro resistance reduction
- A constant vaporizing reaction
- Xingqiu may be able to heal
- More attacks with Pyro resonance
4. Hu Tao + Zhongli + Xingqiu + Mona
It is unusual for a team to have Hydro resonance, mainly if it is led by a Pyro carry. With her Burst, Hu Tao can do the most damage, so this combination is suitable for those who want her to deal the most damage. Mona, the Astrologer’s Burst, provides some staggering damage numbers.

In addition to this, the composition of this team is very similar to most Hu Tao compositions. They are just more focused on maximizing damage numbers. This means it can flex those million-high numbers of damage. In addition, Hu Tao is also given the Hydro resonance healing bonus, which increases his chances of surviving.
Character Details and Position
Characters | Position |
---|---|
Hu Tao | DPS |
Zhongli | Shielder |
Xingqiu | Enabler & Healer |
Mona | Enabler & CC |
Team Advantages
- Top shield in-game
- With Mona, you have good CC & increased damage
- With petrification, Zhongli can CC
- The elemental reaction of constant vaporization
- Xingqiu’s healing ability increases with hydro resonance
5. Hu Tao + Xiangling + Diona + Rosaria
For a dynamic that isn’t dependent on Hu Tao’s best support, this girl power team should also work. Diona gives a shield anyway so that losing Zhongli doesn’t matter much.

Rosaria is there to provide a decent Cryo application and plenty of CRIT Rates. What’s even more beautiful about this team is the dual DPS resonance. Players can easily swap out Rosaria with Kaeya if they want something more consistent.
Character Details and Position
Characters | Position |
---|---|
Hu Tao | DPS |
Xiangling | Enabler |
Rosaria | Enabler |
Diona | Enabler & Healer |
Team Advantages
- Elemental melt reaction (x2)
- Diona may heal and shield you
- Two elemental resonances
Final Thoughts
One of the most outstanding characters of Genshin Impact is Hu Tao. Characters with an appealing aesthetic may not have a good playstyle, and others with an awesome kit may not be as attractive. In my opinion, Hu Tao fits all such criteria. Besides being pretty and powerful, she is voiced by a Japanese actress in Re: Zero! There’s no doubt that she’s a fantastic character. We think she deserves to shine, even more, so make her shine even more with the help of our guide.
