How to Use Traveler (Anemo)

Easy-to-use close range attacks are great for beginners

The Traveler uses a Sword, the most basic of the five Weapon types, to execute quick and easy melee attacks. Compared to characters with claymores, the Traveler loses the advantage of the spinning held attack, but their attacks are easy to land hits with, making them great to start out with while getting the ropes of the gameplay.

For a basic attacking style, you'll want to use the tap attack to hit five times in sequence, which will knock the enemy backwards on the last blow. Then, sprint after them and continue the same pattern until you finish them off.

Elemental Skill and Burst can spread elements across opponents

The Anemo Traveler's Elemental Skill, “Palm Vortex”, can both inflict the Anemo (Anemo) Element on enemies, as well as spread an element attached to a single enemy across all the enemies hit by the attack. This can be used to deal Swirl damage even to enemies which do not already have an element.

The “Gust Surge” Elemental Burst launches a tornado in a straight line directly in front, sweeping ahead for a long distance. This attack is useful for spreading elements and inflicting Swirl across swaths of enemies, so while this effect can be achieved with the Elemental Skill as well, Gust Surge has a much further range, making it more effective for inflicting elemental statuses on multiple enemies at once.

Can be used with Cryo characters to cross water

The ability of the Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst to spread elements does not work only on enemies. When a Cryo character freezes water with their Elemental Skill or Elemental Burst, the Anemo Traveler can switch in and use one of their attacks with an Element-spreading effect. This will spread the Cryo element across the water and create more ice to walk across.

For cases where you are crossing with only one Cryo character, this can be highly convenient as it avoids the need to wait for the Elemental Skill's cooldown time each time you want to freeze more water. Simply switch back and forth between the two characters and you can continue walking across the ice as long as you need.
