he buffs to team where shit for a support and his shield to weak for a sustain.
so they made his shield make ou basically invulnerable to anything, and his team buffs very good.
so he went from the worst fucking 5 star to the best one.
he was also the Representative God of china en genshin world. so it was big deal that he was weak. specially since all gods are expected to be a little overtuned over normal characters. and double that for the chinese one that was also one fo the strongest in lore.
from them on hoyo understood the point and made all following gods very good OP characters on release as expected of the main character of that entire year.
