Wanderer

Roles

• On-Field DPS

Character Breakdown

• Elemental Skill deals AoE Anemo Damage and enters a special state.

  • In this state, Wanderer becomes airborne, gains a resource similar to Stamina, and Normal and Charged Attacks have their AoE increased.

  • Wanderer uses his resource constantly to maintain his aerial state, and will use more when he does the following:

    • Uses Normal Attacks.

    • Dashes mid-air (sprints).

    • Rises vertically (jumps).

• Elemental Burst deals several hits of AoE Anemo Damage and, if cast while Wanderer's Elemental Skill is active, will forcibly end it.

• A1 gives Wanderer up to two buffs depending on what elements were Swirled upon activation of Wanderer's Elemental Skill. The buffs include the following:

  • If Hydro is Swirled, Wanderer gains more initial resources upon entering his Elemental Skill.

  • If Pyro is Swirled, Wanderer gains an ATK% buff.

  • If Cryo is Swirled, Wanderer gains a CRIT Rate buff.

  • If Electro is Swirled, Wanderer will gain energy when attacking with his Normal and Charged Attacks.

• A4 gives Wanderer's Normal and Charged Attacks (whilst in the state activated by his Elemental Skill) a chance to activate a buff. This buff removes the resource cost associated with the next usage of his aerial dash and causes it to fire off four arrows dealing Anemo Damage when cast.

Additional Notes

• Wanderer is amazing for general exploration as Stamina will recover while Wanderer is using his Elemental Skill.

• C1 buffs Wanderer's Attack SPD whilst in the state activated by his Elemental Skill and increases the damage dealt by his A4 passive.

• C2 increases the damage dealt by Wanderer's Elemental Burst based on how little of his resource remains when it is cast.

• C4 increases the maximum number of buffs obtained from Wanderer's A1 from two to three. If two or fewer buffs are obtained, Wanderer will randomly obtain a buff from an element that he does not currently have.

• C6 causes Wanderer's Normal Attacks (whilst in the state activated by his Elemental Skill) to deal an additional instance of damage and restore a bit of his resource up to a maximum of five times per Elemental Skill.

Works Well With

• Wanderer mainly deals Anemo Damage, and Faruzan's ability to debuff Anemo RES and buff the damage of Anemo Normal and Charged Attacks synergizes extremely well with Wanderer.

• Yunjin, similarly to Faruzan, can buff Wanderer's Normal and Charged Attacks.

• Characters that can deal sustained damage Off-Field (ideally without too much external support) work well with Wanderer due to characters not being able to switch in while he is airborne.

Does Not Work Well With

• As a On-FIeld DPS himself, Wanderer does not want to paired with other characters of the same role

• Wanderer can't easily deal Physical Damage and so should not be paired with Physical damage characters.

Teams

Anemo

• Wanderer deals large amounts of Anemo Damage, supported by Faruzan and Bennett's various buffs.

• Faruzan both buffs Wanderer and can help generate Anemo Particles for Wanderer's Elemental Burst.

• Xingqiu deals Hydro Damage from Off-Field.

• Bennett acts as a healer and can buff Wanderer's ATK.
