Genshin Impact: The Best Build For Traveler
Any game that's branded as a "free-to-play" title is almost immediately going to get inundated with any number of negative connotations and accusations alike. Long-winded, grind-inducing, predatory, a matter of luck over skill on the kind of content you’re granted outside of some voluntary, monetary investment. It may sound dismissive and pessimistic, but the number of such games whose priorities with maintaining a steady revenue stream doesn’t get in the way of the base game offered are few and far between. Enter Genshin Impact, developer miHoYo’s far from first rodeo on the F2P frontier -- itself thrown many a condescending remark on being a clone of this or imitation of that. The similarities are there to see of course and while admittedly a touch obvious in parts, what I’m most thankful for with Genshin Impact is the genuine effort and design miHoYo have placed in crafting an enjoyable action RPG to start. A live service, continually-expanding release this may be, Genshin Impact’s starting world, its gameplay, its sheer breadth of exploration put many similar open-world efforts, let alone F2P attempts, to shame. To state with hand on heart I’ve now clocked near to 40 hours and still not spent a single penny -- occasionally tempting it may be -- I’m grateful that Genshin Impact has taken a more sensible approach to F2P games: satisfying base game first, additional monetization second as an option.
Surprisingly, Dendro is one of the best Elements for the Traveler in Genshin Impact . It even has a decent build that can help their team deal a lot of damage through Dendro reactions in Genshin Impact . The Dendro Traveler also has a good Dendro application through their Elemental Burst, which helps them take advantage of the effect of the 4pc of Deepwood Memories . With that set, the Dendro Traveler can keep shredding enemies’ Dendro resistance and help their team deal more Dendro
As for the best 5-Star weapon, opt for Freedom-Sworn as it increases the Anemo Traveler’s Elemental Mastery and fully unlocks their status as a Support by increasing their entire team attack and Normal, Charged, and Plunging DMG. Alternatively, Key of Khaj-Nisut and Skyward Blade are also viable. For F2P, go for Sacrificial Sword , Festering Desire , or Favonius Sword as they increase the Anemo Traveler’s Energy Recharge and help them cast their Elemental Burst more of
A game I'm thankful for in 2020 is one that was met with universal critical acclaim and extremely-divided fan reactions: The Last of Us Part II. There are elements of this game that can be legitimately criticized, but personally the good outweighed the bad. But while I would argue this is overall a great game by most objective standards, I'm thankful for it because of more personal reasons. The original game was a topic of deep discussion with my other half so naturally we were anticipating this release. Playing through the game together was a good bonding activity and led to hours of discussion about the character choices and the storytelling approaches used in The Last of Us Part II.
Updated on February 28, 2025 by Rhenn Taguiam: With Genshin Impact v5.4 featuring banners headlined by Furina and Wriothesley, fans who heated up their experienced with the fiery arrival of Mavuika will certainly appreciate this change of pace. As the event comes with activities such as the Invasive Fish Wrangler, Reel Ad-Venture, and Ley Line Overflow, Genshin Impact might want to brush up on their game knowledge and enjoy these offerings. However, fans looking for a more recent list of pro tips to play the game should look into ways of maximizing their available Wishes, focusing on upgrading their main team, and taking note of the game’s most ideal synerg
It’s much better to not build the Hydro Traveler at all as HoYo is definitely trolling with their kit. However, if you’re crazy enough to invest in them, then give the Hydro Traveler 2pc of one of these three artifact sets: Nymph's Dream , Heart of Depth , or Golden Troupe . They barely operate with any artifact set, so just go for 2pc to give them 30% Hydro
While there's a period around ten hours in where the showering of XP, resources and crafting material shrinks to that of a trickle, credit where credit's due. Genshin Impact is not as predatory or as manipulative with progression as this kind of business model may allude towards. Yes, that's not to say that the meager doling out of Primagems (one of the many form of currencies) doesn't eventually devolve from dismissive, to a touch annoying, to downright aggravating. Not least because in-Slg game Maps achievements and challenges also suffer from this same deliberate smidgen of an offering. So little in the way of crucial currency; obviously it's an attempt to further coax players to the in-game shop where everything, including the potential pull of a four-star (maybe even five-star) weapon or new character dangles in front of you. Another ten pulls and you're sure to get it this time.
