The Raiden Shogun is worth pulling for in Genshin Impact for a variety of reasons.

There are two main types of players to consider here are:

  1. Casual gamers
  2. Hardcore gamers

Casual gamers will have to decide if pulling for her is worth it based on something more subjective, whereas hardcore players might care more about the meta. In this case, it's easier to see what she objectively brings to the table and if one should try to summon her.

Her strengths include:

  • Excellent battery
  • High viability even at C0
  • Boosts the team's Elemental Burst DMG
  • Works excellently in the Spiral Abyss
  • Consistent damage

Some flaws include:

  • Her Elemental Burst doesn't work with every character (most notably Beidou)
  • Not the most splashable as somebody like Kazuha
  • Although it is a minor flaw, she is unable to cook anything

If the player doesn't try to get Raiden Shogun during her rerun, then they are unlikely to get her again until several months down the line. Thus, they need to decide if they want to get her once her banner arrives.

Raiden Shogun's upcoming rerun will be in the second phase of Genshin Impact 2.5.

For Travelers who need a powerful Electro unit that can act as a terrific battery, Raiden Shogun is the perfect choice. The only genuine reasons to skip the character rerun would be if the player already has her (especially at C6) or if they're waiting for another upcoming unit.

Raiden Shogun can be exceptionally valuable in some of the game's most challenging content. If she can efficiently clear Floor 12 of the Spiral Abyss, then it's only inevitable that she can help Travelers clear most other combat-oriented content.

The meta can always change in the future, but she currently plays a valuable role in Genshin Impact's metagame. As far as 5-star characters go, she's arguably in the upper echelon and is worth pulling in most situations.

Of course, whether or not a player pulls for her is entirely up to them.
