Genshin Impact: Tier List of Buffed Traveler Elements (Based on Luna IV)
This video provides a tier list assessment of each elemental Traveler's performance based on the Luna IV update. With overall stat buffs and the addition of new charged attacks increasing the Traveler's usability, we analyze the strengths and weaknesses of each element and their effectiveness in team compositions to determine which element is the most useful.
1. ✨ Introduction to Traveler Elemental Buffs and Evaluation Criteria
- ✅ Although no new elements have been added for the new Traveler, all elemental stats have been significantly buffed.
- ✅ Charged attacks have been added for each element, helping with elemental application and additional damage dealing.
- ✅ The Traveler's power mimics the power of the gods or dragon lords of the respective region, and can be seen as a lower-tier version of the Archons.
- ✅ We will evaluate how the Traveler performs when used like an Archon, excluding the actual Archons.

2. ⚡ F Tier: Electro Traveler
- ❌ The Electro Traveler aims to act as a battery for the team and provide explosive damage like Raiden Shogun, but fails to do either properly.
- ❌ It does not show explosive damage even in Raiden Shogun's premium overload team.
- ❌ It is best to avoid using it as it does not properly perform the battery role even in basic national teams.
01:35 - 03:07
3. 💧 B Tier: Hydro Traveler
- ✅ I didn't expect the Hydro Traveler to be in a high tier, but you can get surprising results if you use it as a Hydro main DPS.
- ✅ Although the damage is lower compared to Neuvillette, it shows decent performance considering it is a free character.
- ✅ HP buffs and HP recovery through charged attacks help with survival.
- ✅ C4 allows you to create a shield when using elemental skills, increasing survivability.
- ⚠️ High skill cooldown and ambiguous attack scaling based on HP coefficients are disappointing.
03:10 - 04:06
4. 🌿 A Tier: Dendro Traveler
- ✅ The Dendro Traveler applies Dendro like Nahida, promoting elemental reactions.
- ❌ The frequency of Dendro application is lower and the damage is weaker compared to Nahida.
- ✅ It is placed in A tier due to its easy usage and setup difficulty.
- ✅ You can equip the Deepwood Memories set to reduce Dendro resistance and increase elemental mastery.
- ⚠️ Although the performance is lower compared to Nahida, it shows decent performance considering it is a free character.

5. 💨 S Tier: Anemo Traveler
- ✅ The Anemo Traveler is an excellent support, and can reduce elemental resistance through the Viridescent Venerer set.
- ✅ The C6 effect reduces the Anemo resistance of targets taking explosion damage, and also reduces the resistance of the diffused element, resulting in a total of 60% elemental resistance reduction.
- ✅ This is very useful in the elemental reaction meta that ignores defense but considers elemental resistance.
05:15 - 06:29
6. 🪨 S Tier: Geo Traveler
- ✅ The Geo Traveler was not well-regarded in the past, but is gaining attention again with the advent of the Luna Crystallize reaction.
- ✅ The elemental skill creates Geo constructs, and the elemental burst creates indestructible Geo constructs, increasing the party's critical hit rate.
- ✅ When used with Zhongli, it can deal periodic AoE Geo damage through Geo construct resonance.
- ✅ It can increase the frequency of Geo application to actively trigger the Luna Crystallize reaction.
06:30 - 08:06
7. 🔥 S Tier: Pyro Traveler
- ✅ The Pyro Traveler can perform the role of an on-field DPS or an off-field Pyro applicator like Maviqa.
- ✅ Although the elemental skill has a long cooldown, it can increase the frequency of Pyro application when used with Mahua.
- ✅ It can also act as a support that increases other elemental damage bonuses by using the City of Ashes set.
- ✅ The C6 effect applies Pyro to normal attacks, charged attacks, and plunging attacks, and increases critical damage, allowing it to be used as a main DPS.
- ✅ It can become a powerful DPS when used with Maviqa supports such as Ceylonan, Sidali, and Bennett.
- ✅ It is one of the elements that can make good use of the new charged attack buff.
