1.2 Tier List Rankings

The Pyro Traveler can provide off-field Pyro application, making them a viable alternative to Xiangling for characters needing periodic application, especially as a Scroll holder. They also have a good quick-swap Elemental Burst that can be used as a nuke due to its decent scaling. However, the uptime of their Pyro application is slow and short, with their Skill ending abruptly before your Main DPS can complete their rotations.

Genshin Impact – Chapter 5 Act 5 – Incandescent Ode of Resurrection

The Archon Quest “Where All Hopes Lie” unlocks the Pyro Traveler.

The Pyro Traveler is unlocked by completing the Archon Quest Where All Hopes Lie, one of the final quests in Natlan’s Incandescent Ode of Resurrection Chapter Act 5. Unlike previous versions of the Traveler, the Pyro form cannot be unlocked from the region’s Statues of the Seven.

2.2 Enhance Pyro Traveler Using the Throne of the Primal Fire

The Pyro Traveler’s true constellations can be enhanced by giving offerings to the Throne of the Primal Fire, which is accessible after the Archon Quest. Use the Blazing Flint Ores you have acquired in Natlan as offerings.

3. What Are The Best Builds for Pyro Traveler?

To maximize the Pyro Traveler’s potential, focus on builds that amplify their Pyro damage and Energy Recharge. Here are some recommended builds:

3.1 Natlan Pyro DPS

Given that the Pyro unit has access to the Natlan Artifact Sets and their Elemental Skill is based on the Nightsoul Point system, the Traveler is built with the Cinder City Artifact Set in mind. Since their abilities scale off standard ATK, it is recommended to build the Traveler for comfortable Energy Recharge first, then slot into CRIT stats and ATK rolls.

3.2 Pyro Traveler DPS Builds

3.2.1 Pyro DPS

As a Pyro DPS, the Traveler benefits from weapons and artifacts that improve their overall elemental DMG, give them more supportive capabilities, or both. Focus on their CRIT stats and ER to ensure that they deal damage comfortably.

3.3 Pyro Traveler Talent Priority

The Pyro Traveler’s Elemental Skill is their bread and butter for most of their damage, so this takes up the main priority among their talents, followed by the Elemental Burst for the quick nuke it provides. The Traveler’s Normal Attacks can be saved for last as they do not take up much field time as a Sub-DPS unit.

4. What Are the Best Artifacts for the Pyro Traveler?

Choosing the right artifacts can significantly boost the Pyro Traveler’s effectiveness. Here are some top artifact sets to consider:

4.1 Both Natlan Sets Are Great For Traveler

The Traveler is mainly run with 4-piece Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City for its supportive passive and DMG increases to the team. However, the Traveler can also use a more generalized set like Golden Troupe, Flower of Paradise Lost for burgeon comps, or 2-piece combinations while farming for Cinder City.

5. What Are the Best Weapons for Pyro Traveler?

Selecting the right weapon can greatly enhance the Pyro Traveler’s damage output and utility. Here are some of the best weapon choices:

5.1 Pyro Traveler Wants CRIT and DMG Increases

As a damage-oriented unit, Pyro Traveler values personal damage or utility, opting for weapons such as Mistsplitter Reforged for their best choice when it comes to increasing their damage. Other than that, they can also make use of weapons such as Primordial Jade Cutter for the universal buffs, and Wolf-Fang and Festering Desire if only looking to augment their Elemental Skill.

6. What Are the Best Team Comps for Pyro Traveler?

The Pyro Traveler can fit into various team compositions, offering Pyro application and support. Here are some effective team comps:

6.1 Universal Pyro Unit

The Traveler’s Free-to-Play nature and highly sought Pyro application makes them a formidable unit to be used in almost any team that requires the presence of a Pyro unit. Even so, they benefit the most in teams that augment their damage via buffs, teams with transformative reactions, or both.

6.2 Pyro Traveler Melt Teams

Pyro Traveler brings ample Pyro application to most teams, allowing them to function as the Sub-DPS in melt teams and allowing their Main DPS to proc Melt and deal more damage. This also works both ways with the Main DPS and other units enabling the Pyro Traveler to be the trigger of the reaction as well.

6.3 Pyro Traveler Burning Teams

Pyro Traveler can also function in Burning teams, especially when paired with a Natlan character like Kinich, as that enables them to reliably keep the Burning reaction going. This way, they can take the place of a more on-demand unit like Xiangling without sacrificing any Pyro application.

6.4 Pyro Traveler Vaporize Teams

Pyro Traveler can also function well in Vaporize teams as the dedicated Pyro Sub-DPS due to the abundance of Hydro DPS units and the Pyro Traveler’s damage being amplified by the reaction.

6.5 Pyro Traveler Burgeon Teams

Burgeon comps also work for the Traveler if they are built with Elemental Mastery in mind, as their consistent Pyro application can proc Burgeon and cause multiple Pyro explosions against opponents.
