Wanderer Is INCREDIBLE... But Needs Help! 4★ Weapon C0 Wanderer Showcase (Genshin Impact)

Btw, Wanderer said he is not a fan of Dango food. :( Ok, I will show myself out.

if he is airborne ability made in invunerable to more attacks hes would be so much better. I hope they fix that, he deserves to be more powerful. Sadly I still want him, even if he is not very useful in abyss. I find myself spending mostt of my time on overwlrd these days anyway

When Bennett is a better Anemo Support than a dedicated Anemo Support.

Seeing xiangling’s burst from the air..my god she’s so op

Bennett is still basically god of showcases

I really liked how honest this review was. While many are fawning over the fact that Wanderer is finally playable and trying to get him like a rare Pokemon, for people like me who look at the character kit before pulling for it this vid was a great insight!

one thing you forgot to mention: he can extremely quickly recover from any knockbacks for 0 stamina cost if you press space or shift mid knockback animation. How fast the recovery depends on your reaction time of course

This is literally the "the boss when you fight him, the boss when you unlock him as an unlockable character" meme.

Some things I've noticed in open world, if you use lost prayers catalyst, dude flies like a jet with 10% increase in movement speed. The fact you can move around while attacking with normal and charged makes it easier to avoid getting hit, compared to yoimiya that is locked in place for her rotation. Damage can be avoided if you fly just a bit higher than initial skill use. If grass terrain is on fire, or water terrain is electrified, easily avoidable, in a way that's its own resistance buff. Many small details that makes him a lot of fun for exploration.

His floating ability is so short, but has fast cd

the fact that he is indisputably the best open world explorer should not be understated

I believe Faruzan's burst buff is not restricted from the animation of her burst. This was mentioned during the livestream

it is weird indeed how he has no resistance when he's literally flying above the enemies, or most of them

I absolutely love his playstyle! Especially spamming his charged attack gives me some sort of god complex lmao. And him being in Anemo, he's versatile in many team comps which makes it even more fun to try him in various teams if you ever get bored of one. I personally don't mind about his damage, being an Albedo main i'm used to this lol.

Yup, I kinda figured he was always meant for the overworld and didn't look like someone to throw into the spiral abyss but that doesn't mean don't pull for him. Remember if you really want him, get him. Good luck on your pulls and may y'all win the 50/50!

One thing I find weird about Wanderer is his Burst.
It's just damage.
I was expecting a effect like "Gains +10 Void Energy by every enemy hit with his burst, up to X enemies hit" since he seens to be focused on playing DBFZ Zamasu most of the time.

What you give up in raw numbers you gain in convenience and playstyle. I like Ningguang for a couple reasons. She does pretty good damage from afar and supports her team with shield protection. I imagine Scara functions the same way

i think Wanderer is really good for longtime players like me who already have so many meta characters, he's really fun to play while exploring the world

I was really excited for wanderer but seeing his DMG I don't know anymore. And I am those people who are still struggling with 36 staring the abyss so I think I should save for Raiden Shogun or Hu Tao. Since I already have kazuha and zhongli for world exploration. Flying is still pretty freaking cool

I just wish his E was able to be used while still in the air. Would make him a strong exploration contender

Our boy Benny keeps showing these new support characters why he will always be THE best support in the game.

Appreciate your really honest and thorough review!!! I have plenty of wishes saved so I’ll be pulling for him and hope, like Kokomi, that he eventually becomes an indispensable unit!

Good review and good points. I play the game for lore/fun and not for the spiral abyss (I literally hate doing the spiral abyss every 2 weeks) and I wanted the wanderer so I pulled for him. If you prefer the combat aspect of the game then don't worry, pull for whoever is meta!

His damage seems underwhelming. But I think it doesn’t matter, what’s important is you enjoy the character. I personally don’t like his gameplay so I’ll pass for now, but if I had the luxury of primogems, I’d definitely pull for him just for overworld purposes. It’s cool to be able to fly and traverse the map with style.

He never seemed overbearing, a bit underwhelming, but seems ok. I also am not a fan of faruzan’s needs. But at the end of the day, I just like his art scheme and I’m small as him IRL, so I pulled for a C0 copy anyway

Honestly, I expected him not to deal very big numbers since I've observed Hoyo don't really make their male characters that strong. It's always the female characters that deal horrendously big damage. Sighs. I still love him tho and will pull for him.
Update: I lost pity to my first Mona at AR 59. 😭

I think the developer still wants to maintain that wanderer originally was Ei's doll, since the light glow on his back and the attack when he dash is a 'little bit' similar with shogun

seems like another pretty good unit in the case of absence of stamina by deliberate strat (e.g. c0 hu tao), or challenge stage limitation (e.g. the frost domain for talent books or enemies with shockwave burst i think?) would be nice to know if he could actually avoid azdaha's stomp move and future anti-ground enemies

He kinda of reminds me of how yanfei’s burst works, it’s not a big pp damage burst intentionally since her main dmg comes from her charged attacks. Her burst basically gives yanfei a life time supply of seals until the time runs out or you switch to another character.

I already pulled for him and i already expected the damage isn't his speciality. Still, his design and lore is one of my favorite so far. I would love to try him on abyss and see if i can give a little bit of advice to the developers on satisfaction survey

As it relates to the design of any character, he/she cannot be perfect. There has to be some sort of "flaw". If Scara was perfect, what would happen to the other anemo units??

Pretty much as expected, I really want to pick him up but he deserves his signature weapon and I simple don't have the primos for both right now. I think I'll try to get Ayato's sword second half and then save up for Dehya. Hopefully if Mihoyo is kind I'll pick up Al haitham and wanderer with their signature weapons on their first reruns.

Always appreciate the honest and detailed reviews

I really liked your honest opinion for every character release! I always check your channel right after every patch to see the new characters review. I initially plan skip him for Alhaitham and Dehya but I always wait for these character review and to test them out myself in the trial to see if I will pull or not. Personally, I didn't like his combat gameplay since as you said, he's basically anemo Yoimiya which I also skipped. NGL, the hovering on overworld looks really cool but then again you're right than theres nothing really challenging in overworld exploration especially now its becoming easier with four leaf sigil, the flower that can restore stamina, bouncy mushrooms, etc. Fontaine will probably have something like them too.
I'll skip him for now and hoping Dehya's kit has something new to bring in terms of combat like Nilou, and no, I don't mean the restrictive team, I mean Nilou's team doesn't rely on crits like how almost most of the teams do, which I really like about her

I've already tested him out myself and force fit him into my daily commission team (for friendship), I just came to this video seeking confirmation if his sprint covers less ground than casually floating and I'm satisfied 👍 great video as always

This video was very precise and punctual in showing The Wanderer's numbers and that was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you very much. I am currently on 50/50, maybe I will throw some pulls to reach pity. If I win him, that's good otherwise I will probably use my guaranteed for Ayato.

I'm so glad that you covered the knocking around! I have a c2 Zhongli but I was wondering if Wanderer would be affected while in the air. Definitely think that would be super annoying.

I think Wanderer's Hitbox is at the ground, his body is technically above the ground but his Hitbox is at the ground

One of best detailed videos of wanderer! I love every detail u go through…❤

I'm glad you were honest and told people not to pull him if you are struggling for 36*. He's a fun character, and I have C2. At C2, he's STARTING to feel like a C0 5* unit.

The only thing i have problem is, he makes me constantly worry. As a former Xiao and Kazuha main, seeing him floating around without plunging triggers something in me, and i often accidentally cancel his hovering state. I dont think i'm ready to use him in abyss after all

He may not be the strongest unit out there, but he's fun as hell and the best character for exploration

I regret not getting him on his first banner, but I just got him and he is so fun to play. He is indeed not a must pull like the archons or Benny, but for sure he s got the fandango

If you are lookin for damage i would say there are better options but if you are looking for fun or your account is already stacked with decent dps units and you want a fun dps i would say scar is for you..

Wanderer is not that broken for a dps, imo xiao is better for the abyss :) but for me clearing 36 stars is already pretty easy, so i would have new characters for open world, and co-op purposes and not think about if they’re abyss worthy 😌

I felt the same with, even c6, Heizo. Anemo Dps just feel like they dont hit nearly as hard as other elements.

My favorite Wanderer(c2) team I’ve tried so far is Layla, xingqui(c6) and faruzan(c6).
I think a lot of people had unrealistic expectations for him. They want him to be flawless in everything but it’s normal and perfectly OK for him to be a unit with flaws. His flaws are easily solved with the characters you choose to pair him with. I mean, who is traveling Teyvat with only one character in their team? Unless you’re rping, you’ll pair him with appropriate backup. Overall he’s a lot of fun, he makes exploration and the hum drum of farming fun again for me. I don’t regret breaking my 2 year f2p streak for him.

use him with fischl in quicken instead of tazer. he can proc her passive every 0.5 sec in an aoe with his charged attack

i think honestly wonderer could be great in melt vap team , get him xiangling or bennet , xingqiu or yelan and ayaka or basically any cryo applier even aloy works , tho u should stack wonderer with like 100-200 EM if u go for that for that extra dmg

In full team, I’m happy with how my Wanderer performs

Wanderer is good I am using xingqui rain sword with him to deal more damage, yes it is easy for wanderer to get interrupted in mid air, it feels weird how ground attacks still can reach you.
Sure we will have some players will find better build for him, to me I am currently using 2 sets of gladiator & and 2 sets of troupe, guess elemental mastery will be good for him

Finally, a showcase that's actually comprehensive.

I have wanderer C2 because i went for Faru C6 and got 2 in a 10 pull so I'm excited for him when hes fully build. So far the dmg is a bit lackluster but I was thinking the same about Yae and Ayato and they are super good now. Plus he is super fun. So far running him on R2 Atlas.

Really appreciate the honest review as always ☁️

I use him with Layla for companionship points and they work really well with shield, cryo application, and cryo crit buff

Thanks for helping me save my primos for Shogun and Ayato. It's not because he is imperfect. It's more that I have limited resources and I need to save for characters that are generally liked. :)

Using Wanderer's Troupe on the Wanderer and just spamming CA is actually pretty solid damage! Easily getting 30-40K CA in his E state!

I was unsuccessful when I was pulling for Wanderer, but I already prepared good DPC artifacts for him. So I did the unthinkable and gave those to Heizou. :)

A good team focused on Wanderer’s damage is
-Wanderer
-Bennet or Faruzan
-Yunjin
-Zhongli
Zhongli applies his shield and Yunjin buffs normal attacks as well as geo resonance meaning increased damage while a shield is active. Faruzan of course buffs Anemo

As I suspected, he is going to be a good utility exploration

I wanted to pull for Raiden, because I need her for quicken and hyperbloom, but I guess I'll just stick to Fischl. To me his playstyle is just too much fun to miss out on.

Seeing all the leaks and trailers made me excited to get him but now that he’s here I find his kit to be very boring. Plus I also prefer the old character design.

love using his charged attack without consuming its stamina :D

something that i like is that his cooldown duration for the elemental skill is only 6 seconds

What i would change is jist like when yae uses her burst she resets her e if she had placed down totem, i would definitely want the same with him. So when you use his burst while on his e, because after his burst you get sent down.

Take a note :
-Faruzan is a pure anemo shredder while benny boost DMG, and more damage because scaranouche benefits from his pyro affect from his circle ( no need C6 stupid)

For me Wanderer is not the best in abyss, but very good for open world farming and exploring with Nahida and sayu(for anemo resonance)

Theres a little thing i want to add. Cyno is best in hyperbloom, so his damage can be much higher. Just swap zhongli for xingqui
Scara has a really unique kit tho

use xingqiu E or Q to prevent interuption while spamming atk mid air, then cycle the process

Wanderer is a good character to pull. The only problem is that he is solely based on damage but in terms of support, there is none. As for him getting knocked out of his hover skill as annoying as it is, it's more of a skill problem with the player than the actual character. Overall, could Wanderer have been better? Yes. Does that mean he isn't good? No. Although he doesn't have the best damage, Wanderer is still fun as hell to play and I don't regret pulling for him. He's around top 11-20 in my opinion.

Diona shields, heals, and gives EM boost…thats who Im putting in a team with Venti and Xinqiu for crowd control/freeze

I had a blast trying Scaramouche out in his trial and think he's a lot of fun to play. He'd be super good in the overworld too. That said, he's a hard skip for me; too many issues with his kit along with the clunkiness. Hopefully he'll get a couple of QoL adjustments to make him less janky.

Thank you for the honest review. I got him c1 today, might get him c2 if faruzan isnt c6 yet. The only reason i am pulling him is because he is an Anemo. For those saying, you should get his mommy first, we all have preference, also i am at the point in the game were my burst/sub dps characters dont need a battery archon because they can manage on their own/build. For dps, i prefer multi hitter/sustained damage than one tap delete or evade dps.

I’ll be real his dmg doesn’t look spectacular at C0, it’s the god complex being able to fly above enemies that I love. I’d agree he feels similar to Cyno, not game changing but really fun to play

Wanderer can infinitly do charged attacks with stamina and Skill stamina together

Thanks for the insights!
I consider pulling him just for the Queen / Bohemian Rhapsody references alone, ehe. Will see how I like his part in the version archon quest.
11:49 AR60 and still never gotten 36 stars here 🤣

I don't think you need the enemy in faruzans ult it will give the buff nonetheless

Im glad having Faruzan without Wanderer, Diluc appeared in 31 pull , im Happy for losing that fast 50/50 , Al Haytham is coming 🙌

The fact that you actually have to use the levitation to go higher a bit to avoid attacks makes sense but its annoying

I did a test and this is the result. Seems like his hitbox doesn’t change even when he‘s in the air. Ergo, attacks by the enemy are still hitting you. Not only that, electrified water can still affect you and so can any elemental plant. How and why this is the case, I don‘t know, but it really ruined the potential of a character whose main gimmick is being airborne

In fact, Anemo DD are not the best solo DD in the game and it is normal: just because of windblows other characters deal more damage cause of resistanse decrease. If damage was the same, it could be too broken

I’ll be pulling for him now, but thank you really much I appreciate this honest review!

That is what i want to hear "Pull for raiden if You struggle in the Abyss" thanks ❤👍

Honestly his whole kit would have been better if it focus on his CHARGE ATTACK which the most fun to use. But Hoyoverse decide they want to give fanservice instead and give him "step on you" burst. His normal attack okay and all but he lack grouping ability and there's no one that have ability to group up enemies in mid air and you can't change characters in mid air. I expected him to at least do more damage with the lack of grouping and cc but noooo give him "step on you" and it will sell well. Well it did sell well so yea good for them

He has all the issues i thought he would have once revealed.
Sad that he can't hover as much got explorstion QoL, and his lacking damage. But I guess tbf, It's hard to compare with Xiao damage output

Literally the only Genshin creator who’s honest

I was not expecting much from his dmg tbh but hey I got him in 20 pulls and his weapon at 40 pulls so aill take him 💜💜💜

Still waiting for the update to download so this video is once again perfect. I was a bit skeptical about pulling but now I'm pretty sure
Edit: OMG I GOT HIM ON MY FIRST 10 PULL AND 10 PULLS LATER JEANS C3 WHAT

I will still pull for him, i am ar45 and still my monstadt exportation is around 30% so he is going to be super useful there, and i don't really care about the abyss soooo thanks for the video, i can't wait to get him now!!!

Right on time on the update. Thanks dude for the informative video!

I was hoarding from him. And got super lucky with 4*s, I got exactly 4 Gorous I was missing to c6 and 7 Faruzans. I think I will never get that lucky (In the past I pulled 160+ times for Gorou and got only 2)

Im saving for Eula and Cyno rerun but even after that, i dont think ill pull for him not even for Faruzan. But thank you for this video which kinda aided my decision.

Thanks for such detailed review of the wanderer! I still haven't gotten him yet because i lost my 50/50 to Tighnari but hopefully soon!

I want him so badly, but I have nothing ready for him besides Wanderer's Troupe and a catalyst billet, lol. I'm resisting pulling for him because I honestly don't want to risk pulling Gorou or Faruzan, tho I wouldn't mind gaining some constellations on my Yanfei... Maybe I'll save up until he comes back around with 4*s that I already have...? Thanks for the video, it was very insightful. 💙

Debating whether to go for a C1 Arataki or a C0 Wanderer. Thoughts?

I'm feeling like he's in a similar situation to Cyno, was really hyped but ended up not that strong. Personally I pulled for Cyno because I loved his design, but got a little disappointed especially because I never use his burst in the overworld... I'm not hyped for the Wanderer but at least he looks really fun in the overworld, anyways good luck to Wanderer wanters!

Maybe you can replace Zhongli with Diona? At C6 she gives EM and Shield and healing. Along with Bennetteand Faruzan.

hes insane like HES SO FUN TO PLAY! i love him sm

I was saving for raiden but I have no self control 💀. I got him at 79 wishes after I tried him he's so fun. At least I won the 50/50 gl yall

I rolled on the weapon banner to get Sac Sword for Xingqiu but ended up getting his signature weapon... Coincidence? I think not!
