Building the Best Dendro Traveler: A Deep Dive
Traveler, ready for a deep dive into the world of Dendro builds? We’re going to unlock the best artifact sets for your leafy friend, focusing on both damage and support roles.
The Basics: Why Dendro Traveler?
Traveler is a fantastic choice for Dendro reactions. They’re incredibly versatile, offering both damage and support options thanks to their Elemental Skill, "Windblume Ode." This skill allows them to switch between Anemo, Geo, Electro, and now, Dendro, allowing you to tailor your team to any situation.
Building for Damage:
- Deepwood Memories (4-Piece): This set is the gold standard for Dendro DPS. The 15% Dendro DMG bonus and 30% increased Dendro damage against enemies affected by Dendro are essential for maximizing your damage output. It’s the perfect choice for players who want to unleash a powerful Dendro Traveler.
- Gilded Dreams (4-Piece): For those looking to maximize damage even further, Gilded Dreams is a fantastic alternative. The 14% Elemental DMG bonus and the 14% bonus to the corresponding Elemental Damage of the character’s equipped element (Dendro for Traveler) offer a significant increase in damage, particularly when combined with reactions like Burning or Quicken.
- Wanderer’s Troupe (2-Piece) + Deepwood Memories (2-Piece): This combination balances the offensive power of Deepwood Memories with a wider range of damage bonuses. The 18% Elemental DMG bonus from Wanderer’s Troupe gives your Dendro attacks an additional edge.
Building for Support:
- Deepwood Memories (4-Piece): Yes, Deepwood Memories still shines for support. The increased Dendro damage against enemies affected by Dendro helps your team deal more damage with reactions.
- The Instructor (4-Piece): This set is perfect for boosting your team’s Elemental Mastery (EM). The 20% Elemental Mastery bonus and the 80% Elemental Mastery bonus for 10 seconds after triggering an Elemental Reaction make this set incredibly effective for maximizing reaction damage.
- The Exile (4-Piece): If you’re focusing on team buffs, Exile is an excellent choice. The 20% Energy Recharge bonus and the additional 10% Energy Recharge for 15 seconds after using an Elemental Skill can help keep your team’s Elemental Bursts ready.
Key Stats to Focus On:
- Dendro DMG Bonus: Crucial for both damage and support builds.
- Elemental Mastery: Essential for maximizing reaction damage.
- Energy Recharge: Important for supporting your team with frequent Elemental Bursts.
- Critical Rate/Critical Damage: Necessary for increasing damage output if focusing on a DPS build.
Important Notes:
