1.2. Tier List Rankings
| Main DPS | Sub-DPS | Support | Exploration |
|---|---|---|---|
| – | – |
Pyro Traveler’s ability to provide off-field Pyro as a lesser but easier-to-activate alternative to Xiangling for characters requiring periodic application for characters like Kinich or Chevreuse teams, especially as a Scroll holder, makes them a usable unit in comparison to their other forms. They also have a good quick-swap Elemental Burst which can be used as a nuke due to its decently high scaling. The biggest downside however is that the uptime of their Pyro application is too slow and short, with their Skill ending abruptly before your Main DPS can do their full rotations.
The means to acquire and upgrade Traveler’s constellations can be quite a journey. If you don’t know it yet, obtaining the Blazing Flint Ore, which is the reward from reaching Reputation Level 4 from all Natlan tribes, and offering it to a location after the Archon Quest, unlocks additional overworld effects to the Pyro Traveler’s constellations (its initial effects are only exclusive for the new weekly boss fight). In addition, the upgraded effect of their C6 is locked at the moment as Collective of Plenty does not exist yet.5.3 Tier List January 2, 2025 Update

2. How to Unlock Pyro Traveler
Unlocking the Pyro Traveler involves progressing through the Natlan Archon Quest and enhancing them using the Throne of the Primal Fire.
2.1. Progress Natlan Archon Quest Act 5
Genshin Impact – Chapter 5 Act 5 – Incandescent Ode of Resurrection
Pyro Traveler is unlocked by completing the Archon Quest Where All Hopes Lie, which is one of the finale quests of Natlan’s Incandescent Ode of Resurrection Chapter Act 5.
Unlike previous iterations of the Traveler, Pyro 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 aforementioned archon quest.
The player must use the Blazing Flint Ores they have acquired over the course of their journey in Natlan as offerings.
3. Pyro Traveler Best Builds
Creating the best build for your Pyro Traveler involves selecting the right artifacts, weapons, and talent priorities.
3.1. Natlan Pyro DPS
As a Pyro unit having access to the Natlan Artifact Sets, as well as having their Elemental Skill be 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 scalings, 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
| Best Weapon | Mistsplitter Reforged |
|---|---|
| Replacement Weapons | 1. Primordial Jade Cutter 2. Wolf-Fang 3. Festering Desire 4. Harbinger of Dawn |
| Best Artifacts | Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City x4 |
| Artifact Main Stats | Sands: ATK% or Energy Recharge |
| Goblet: Pyro DMG Bonus or ATK% | |
| Circlet: CRIT Rate or CRIT DMG | |
| Artifact Sub Stats | Energy Recharge, CRIT Rate, CRIT DMG, ATK% |
As a Pyro DPS, the Traveler benefits from utilizing weapons and artifacts that either improve their overall elemental DMG, give them more supportive capabilities, or both.
Focus on their CRIT stats and ER to ensure that they get to a position where they deal damage comfortably.
3.3. Pyro Traveler Talent Priority
Prioritizing talents can significantly enhance your Pyro Traveler’s effectiveness.
| 1st | 2nd | 3rd |
|---|---|---|
| Elemental Skill | Elemental Burst | Normal Attack |
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. Pyro Traveler Best Artifacts
Selecting the best artifacts for Pyro Traveler is essential for maximizing their damage output and support capabilities.
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.
4.2. Pyro Traveler Artifact Rankings
4.2.1. Pyro DPS
| Artifact | Artifact Bonuses |
|---|---|

5. Pyro Traveler Best Weapons
Choosing the right weapon can significantly boost the Pyro Traveler’s damage potential and utility.
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.
5.2. Pyro Traveler Weapon Rankings
| Weapon | Weapon Information |
|---|---|
| 1st | Mistsplitter Reforged |

6. Pyro Traveler Best Team Comps
Creating effective team compositions can unlock the full potential of the Pyro Traveler.
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
| Sub-DPS | Main DPS | Sub-DPS/Support | Support |
|---|---|---|---|
| Traveler (Pyro) | Wriothesley | Furina | Xilonen |
| Traveler (Pyro) | Ganyu | Nahida | Zhongli |
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
| Sub-DPS | Main DPS | Sub-DPS/Support | Support |
|---|---|---|---|
| Traveler (Pyro) | Kinich | Emilie | Bennett |
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
| Sub-DPS | Main DPS | Sub-DPS/Support | Support |
|---|---|---|---|
| Traveler (Pyro) | Mualani | Kazuha | Xilonen |
| Traveler (Pyro) | Tartaglia | Kazuha | Bennett |
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
| Sub-DPS | Main DPS | Sub-DPS/Support | Support |
|---|---|---|---|
| Traveler (Pyro) | Tartaglia | Nahida | Kokomi |
| Traveler (Pyro) | Ayato | Collei | Kazuha |
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.
