Genshin Impact: The Best Weapons For Traveler
Anemo #Anemo
One of the most known facts in Genshin Impact ever since it started is that the Traveler’s performance is always underwhelming. To the fanbase’s surprise, Sumeru introduced an excellent Dendro MC that can cover the field with their Lea Lotus Lamp, spreading Dendro all over the battlefield in Genshin Impact. Of course, the other Elemental Travelers are not weak, it’s just there are better characters out there that can do their jobs, especially if players put in the time to build these characters. So to perform better, the Traveler should be built properly
What makes the real difference in a character build is what weapon they’re carrying. Since there are Anemo, Geo, Electro, and Dendro Travelers out there, it’s important to know which are the best weapons for each of them.

Best Weapons For Anemo Traveler In Genshin Impact
Anemo Traveler doesn’t need offensive weapons in Genshin Impact. People can either use Anemo MC with the typical ATK/Anemo/Crit, or Energy Recharge and Elemental Mastery. So any weapon that grants one of these stats is most probably a good fit. Other than the listed weapons, players can also opt for swords like Freedom-Sworn, Primordial Jade Cutter, Mistsplitter Reforged, and Skyward Blade.
Iron Sting
Iron Sting’s 165 Elemental Mastery immediately puts the Anemo Traveler in a better position in their party since most Swirls now deal more DMG. There’s nothing better than a Support that can still inflict some decent DMG.
Favonius Sword
As an Anemo character, the Anemo Traveler has access to shredding enemies’ resistance to the Element they Swirl with and such Supportive ability is valuable in Genshin Impact. Favonius Sword adds another Supportive ability to the Anemo Traveler by giving them the ability to regenerate their team’s Energy. Other than that, having an extra 61% Energy Recharge on the Anemo Traveler makes their Elemental Burst easier to refill and cast.
Best Weapons For Geo Traveler In Genshin Impact
It may be surprising to some players, but the Geo Traveler can really wreck some high DMG. So it’s best to buff their offensive stats. Apart from the two included, Crit and ER weapons like Primordial Jade Cutter, Summit Shaper, Skyward Blade, and The Black Sword are all great options.
Mistsplitter Reforged

Mistsplitter Reforged is a great sword for any character that wants to deal DMG during combat and Geo Traveler is just the unit for that purpose. When wielding Mistsplitter Reforged players need to make sure the Geo Traveler Energy is not full by continuously casting their Burst. It’s really this easy to maintain Mistsplitter Reforged’s stacks.
Festering Desire
For a F2P choice, Festering Desire is a decent weapon that enhances the Geo Traveler’s Elemental Skill. Since most of the Geo Traveler DMG comes from their Skill, it’s a great addition to their kit.
Best Weapons For Electro Traveler In Genshin Impact
Since the Electro Traveler greatly depends on their Energy Recharge to operate as a battery in Genshin Impact, it’s crucial to maximize this stat.
Skyward Blade

Electro Travelers can effectively regenerate their team’s energy when they cast their Elemental Burst. Skyward Blade can match this strategy because the sword increases their Energy Recharge.
Sacrificial Sword
For a full battery build, the best sword for the Electro Traveler is either Favonius or the Sacrificial Sword since both add a whopping 61% Energy Recharge.
Best Weapons For Dendro Traveler In Genshin Impact
Just like the Anemo one, Dendro Traveler mostly depends on their Elemental Mastery stat alongside a bit of Energy Recharge.
Freedom-Sworn

Freedom-Sworn grants the Dendro Traveler some high amount of Elemental Mastery. This is super effective for the Dendro Traveler’s kit since it gives them the ability to deal more DMG with their Dendro Elemental Reactions in Genshin Impact. With that increased DMG, Freedom-Sworn also adds more Supportive abilities to the Dendro Traveler by making them able to buff their team’s DMG and ATK%. For non-spending players, then Sacrificial Sword is also great for a Sub-DPS Dendro MC.
Sapwood Blade
Sapwood Blade is one of Sumeru’s forgeable weapons in Genshin Impact. The F2P sword doesn’t really benefit the Dendro Traveler that much stat-wise, but it gives them the ability to enhance their main DPS Elemental Mastery by 120. This effect can be crucial when the Dendro Traveler is teaming with characters that count on their EM to inflict DMG, such as Tighnari in Genshin Impact. For other support options, people can also use Favonius Sword to enhance the team’s energy regeneration.
Genshin Impact is now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
