The best characters for the Highlander's Watch

The challenge in this Dungeon of Blessing is called "Still". You can go through different levels level 59, 69, 80, and 90 units starting at 30, 35, 40, and 45 adventure ranks respectively. At the same time, on I-III difficulties it is recommended to have in the detachment Hydro, Cryo and Geo characters, and on IV - only Geo. Pyro slimes, hilichurls and mitachurls are waiting for the player inside, and at maximum difficulty there are two Geovishaps.

Based on what is known about the Ridge Watch, we recommend assembling a team of the following characters for the age:

Character	Element	Weapon	Effects
Zhongli	Geo	A spear	The elemental explosion deals massive damage to the listed enemies, and the elemental skill gives a shield to the entire squad, while breaking the enemy’s defense.
Noelle	Geo	Two-handed sword	Budget variant of the hero that creates a Geo-Shield. She breaks other people's shields thanks to the power of her two-handed sword.
Ningguang	Geo	Catalyst	Her screen will be less useful, as There are no ranged units in the dungeon, but the Crystallize reaction remains effective in of protection against incoming damage. And Ningguang herself remains an incredibly powerful DPS character.
Albedo	Geo	Sword	The last of those who will give a shield, providing good protection to the entire squad.
Ganyu	Cryo	Bow	Increased AoE Cryo damage against fire slimes, as well as good ability to control Freeze if there is a Hydro-character in the squad.
Dione	Cryo	Bow	Grants a cryo shield and heals the entire squad with its elemental explosion.
Xingqiu	Hydro	Sword	With an elemental skill, it gives additional protection and healing, and with an elemental explosion, it increases the damage of the entire squad.
Barbara	Hydro	Catalyst	Budget option for healing for the entire squad. She also covers all nearby enemies with the Wet status very quickly.

Thus, Geo-characters are needed to create shields that will block powerful enemy attacks. Hydro and Cryo provide control over enemies, quickly killing Pyro Slimes and countering Geovishaps' Electro and Cryo forms well.

The main DPS character can be selected based on the three heroes accompanying him in battle. If you, for example, do not give this role Ningguang, then you can use one of the following heroes:

Character	Element	Weapon	Effects
Diluc	Pyro	Two-handed sword	It has excellent indicators of physical and Pyro damage. His claymore is also good at breaking enemy shields. High defense and HP values compensate for possible misses in the timing of using your own shields.
Hu Tao	Pyro	A spear	It is effective at low HP, which can be maintained without fear of death if you can regenerate the shield in time to protect against enemy attacks.
Xiao	Anemo	A spear	Alternative for Hu Tao with the same features. Separately, it is worth noting the spearman's jumps, which for most of the battle will be out of reach of the enemy.

In the second part of update 1.5 for Genshin Impact will appear Eola. It can be considered an alternative version of Dilyuk. A new character with a two-handed sword and increased physical damage backed up by Cryo skills will be extremely useful in combination with the secondary DPS and s listed above.

age of the Ridge Watch

In the dungeon, you must kill all the enemies within the allotted time. Simple conditions must be met, given that the shield on the character of the squad will emit shock waves when hit by enemy attacks. No more than once every 2 seconds, you can create AoE damage of the element that the protective shield is endowed with.

This effect also works in the opposite direction, so it is not recommended to visit this Blessing dungeon without a shield.
