This Archon quest is actually good. Not amazing but it's good. I only skipped a moderate amount and found myself actually paying attention to a lot of it.

[@memesneverdiememesarelegen7350]

the best thing about hydro mc is the first time u use their abilities, and be like "wow that's a cool E" and teleport back to the statue of the seven in Sumeru and switch back to Dendro mc again.

Some prefer Geo Traveler because of their personal multipliers, crit rate buff, battery, and NEO ARMSTRONG CYCLONE JET ARMSTRONG CANNON feat. Zhongli.

I prefer Electro Traveler.

Honestly, I totally feel you when you say "Main quests are time consuming". I haven't gotten past the 1st area (harbor) out of lazyness 😂

[@Chibz]

I think traveler was made with the world puzzles in mind more than actual fighting.

[@TinkRomero]

This is a bit of copium, but it’s also understandably believable. So far, the unique combat in Fontaine is … the Arkhe, and HP siphoning. And with Fontaine JUST being released, and a whole plethora of characters to be added, hopefully some of these characters will have a passive that completely takes the Arkhe and/or HP siphoning mechanic to a whole other level. The Traveler has this passive that increases his Skill’s damage based on the HP siphoned, so the developers have at the very least entertained the idea as well. So who knows? Maybe down the line, we will get a character/artifact/weapon that boosts damage based on HP Siphoning … hopefully the numbers are bigger than 45% Siphoned, and 5000 damage though. (It sound slike a just described an Anti-4PC Clam Set.)

I like traveler too. And I triplecrowned every elements.I did the most damage with Hydro Traveler.(236K) But Dendro is the best in my opinion. And I hate electro traveler so much.

[@spiderdude2099]

I hesitate to use this word but…..if you REALLY WANT to find a team hydro traveller is….decent in, just make him a hydro driver for a hyperbloom team as follows: Hydro Traveller Raiden/Kuki (Raiden works better) Nahida/Yao Yao/Baizhu/Collei (Nahida works better) Some shielder (you MUST have a shielder not a healer cuz he’s rooted to the spot and dies super easy) Shield, then activate Nahida and Raiden’s skill. Swap into Hydro Traveller and use skill. It…….kinda works, but there’s NO reason to choose HT over someone like Ayato or other hydro drivers.

[@kanduyog1182]

_"but there’s NO reason to choose HT over someone like Ayato or other hydro drivers"_ I want to use Hydro Traveler is a pretty good reason to chose him over Ayato and others. Plus, not everyone pulled for Ayato, Childe or Kokomi but everyone has Traveler.

[@spiderdude2099]

@@kanduyog1182 it was SUPPOSED to be obvious I meant “no reason to use Ayato, Childe, etc…IF YOU HAVE THEM” No shit, if you don’t have them what I’m saying doesn’t apply. This is clearly for people who DO then isn’t it?

I've poured out substantial amount of resources to build HMC's, after awhile changing artifact sets, changing weapons, from DPS to support/driver... I came to realised that I'm wasting my time and regret all the resources spent on him. Such a worst and impractical kit since Dori. Heck, even Dori is somewhat usefull.

Hydro traveler just goes to show that kit innovation is running dry😂

[@KoiinuNe]

wait wait what do you mean the traveler needs 3 different talent books for each level?? was that always a thing?? did i just level him up and not pay attention?? also can confirm, my non Crit Koko does 6k, more than the traveler. and i think the burst was modeled after Azhdaha's water form? the bubbles that go in a circle around the field

[@trishtanrandom8102]

Yes. Travel needs all three talent books. I should know that, I leveled all of traveler's talents in all elements to 9 with the exception of geo and dendro being triple crowned. I was more disappointed on burst on hydro traveler above all the rest because unlike the anemo one, that burst would literally run away from the battlefield and you can't even stop it. Couldn't they just give him a Thoma like shield instead of that useless bubble? Or a burst like Kaeya's or Xiangling's but not as strong? Like a decent hydro support application? But no! They gave us that worthless bubble!

[@KoiinuNe]

@@trishtanrandom8102 i was not paying attention at all. i've leveled all their talents up to lvl 8 and didn't notice that 😅

[@froeloe]

1. dendro mc (the best) 2. geo mc 3. electro mc 4. anemo mc 5. 6. 7. hydro mc (the worst)

[@yubelious5584]

You clearly haven't picked up a Marchosius with a cryonado. Anemo is number two. He has some of the best shred in the game, and his burst is decent off field support. While not as good as Dendro Traveler, he's certainly better than the practically inert Geo Traveler by comparison.

It's sad that my anemo traveler is trash but still does 20k damage per skill alone

I've been using Hydro Traveler and I like this version the best. His E does meh damage but with Raiden's E, you get a tazergun. His Q also does decent damage, if only it didn't run so fast away like a little wet bitch it would've been good.

[@yubelious5584]

Don't build his burst unless you're really good at shooting from the hip. There's no reticule, so it usually does 0 damage. Not worth the investment. Focus heavily on either his press skill or maybe hold skill. Using his burst wastes time in the animation, when you could be character switching. Thousands of damage lost.

[@rawstar3065]

First time I played hydro traveler. I used his burst and then I'm like where is this water ball going? And tried other characters to stop the moving bubble.
