Anemo Traveler

Table of Contents

Anemo Traveler could be used as a Viridescent Venerer support, which allows for more anemo damage, an increase in swirl DMG by 60% and decreases the opponent’s elemental RES to the element infused in the swirl by 40% for 10s. This could lead to Traveler dealing a lot of damage with his skill and burst provided he is supporting a character that has the element to be able to infuse with Traveler’s skills.

Anemo Traveler could run a 4-pc Viridescent Venerer set as it is known as the best set for Anemo characters for its flexibility in DPS or Support capabilities.

Anemo Traveler is flexible and can be used as a Support in any Pyro/Cryo/Hydro/Electro team.

Best Artifact Set(s):

4pc Viridescent Venerer- used for its flexibility as a DPS or Support set. Provides exceptional DPS with the 15% Anemo DMG bonus and 60% Swirl DMG increase as well as a Support for its 40% Elemental RES shred.
2pc Viridescent Venerer + 2pc Gladiator’s Finale: can be used as an Anemo DPS for Traveler due to Viridescent Venerer set giving a 15% Anemo DMG buff and Gladiator's Finale providing a 18% bonus ATK% to the overall damage output.

Main Artifact Stats:

Sands: ATK% or ER% (if support)
Goblet: Anemo DMG%
Circlet: Crit Rate% or Crit DMG% (depending on artifact substats and weapon choice).

Sub-Stat Priority:

Avoid all raw/flat stats if possible.

Recommended Weapons:

Primordial Jade Cutter: Without a doubt Traveler BiS weapon with 44.1% Crit Rate and 542 ATK at lvl90, combined with 20% HP Increase and ATK Bonus/1.2% max HP (at R1), this sword is a force to be reckoned with. Even with only R1, this sword outclasses every other sword just from the sheer stats and useful passive, Not only that because the sword has Crit Rate as a secondary stat you can focus more on crit damage circlets.

Blackcliff Longsword: With 565 ATK with 36.8% Crit DMG at lvl90 this sword packs a punch but it's mediocre passive is actually extremely inconsistent and doesn't work against bosses and elite enemies. Nevertheless, just from the high ATK and Crit DMG substat this weapon is already powerful and should solve the lack of Crit DMG. Obtaining the weapon and its refinements should be fairly easy since the weapon appears in Paimon's Bargains every alternate month.

The Black Sword: With 510 ATK and 27.6% Crit Rate at lvl90, this sword has a decent base stat and packs a great all-rounder passive. At R1, 20% damage increase on normal/charged attacks is already a good passive, combined with the heal from second passive and the Traveler's "Second Wind" passive making the Traveler have good sustainability especially in Spiral Abyss. The Crit Rate substat should be able to solve the lack of Crit Rate from artifacts. This sword is easy to obtain and refine, albeit it requires you to pay monthly for Gnostic Hymn.

Skyward Blade: With 608 ATK and 51.1% Energy Recharge, this 5-star weapon with one of the highest ATK in the game should make a good pick, the passive, which reads as : "Increases 4% crit rate and Gains Skypiercing Might : upon using Elemental Burst, increases Movement SPD by 10%, increases ATK SPD by 10%, and Normal and Charged hits deal additional DMG equal to 20% of ATK. Skypiercing Might lasts for 12s."(at R1), looks great on paper , but in reality, the Crit Rate boost is too small to notice and "Skypiercing Might" only has 80% effectiveness with the traveler long burst CD (15s). However, you can swap to your Supports to set up the next cycle during the downtime.

Team Compositions:

These are just a few combinations. Feel free to try them out and use what you see fit or whichever ones you prefer.

Tips on Zhongli-Traveler

Pros:
- Since it stops in one place it's easier to dmg enemies you can't carry with Gust Surge.
- Zhongli's shield gives 20% elemental RES shred which is really helpful for extra damage.
- You can add other elements for extra damage (it won't hurt adding).
- Helpful for battles against bosses and elite enemies.
Cons:
- It's hard to use against multiple enemies (it can effect the aim of Gust Surge and stop the player to perform the combo).
- You are most likely burst focused so you need high energy recharge, this lowers your ATK capability.
- There is a possibility where the big enemies won't get near to the Gust Surge, which kills the entire reason of the combo (you will have to lure them).

How the Jean-Traveler works:
So basically what is happening is alternating between Jean E and Anemo Traveler Es and Qs. This constantly CCs the enemies and abuses fall damage. CC'd enemies can't do anything but get bullied.

Tips on Xiangling-Traveler

- Pros:
  - Massive Pyro DMG with good Anemo DMG.
  - Gouba happy ~~or suffering in the tornado?~~
  - Anemo Traveler's burst can carry Fatui Agents and Cicin Mages which are renowned as really annoying units in floor 11-2.
  - C6 Traveler's additional 20% elemental RES shred for Anemo and the fused element gives extra DMG
  - While Guoba is in the tornado, 4 kinds of damage are applied : Anemo DMG, infused Pyro DMG, Swirl DMG and Guoba's fire breaths.
  - With Palm Vortex you can apply swirl with Gouba so you can recharge your burst while doing good support for Guoba.
Cons:
- - The tornado is hard to use, there is a possibility of missing many enemies.
  - Timing is important, it might affect the total damage you do.
  - You don't want to move while using Palm Vortex for elemental particles and maximized DMG.
  - You might infuse a different element before Pyro, which results in your whole combo getting destroyed by mistake.
