@lel pro it's in the talent description 😅😂. You can spam charged attack for mobs because it's pretty quick but you should only charge once before normal attacks as it gives extra attack speed from the artifacts.
@Shade her skill isnt her main source of damage, you use the pepper dropped by gouba to boost your damage with your burst and after rotating to attack buffers like kazu and benny you cast ulti and all those attack buffs (pepper, kazu, benny, noblese, etc.) will snapshot/transfer to her ultimates damage and boom... a 6 star
@Shade I agree with something, in the open world, in my opinion, she is terrible. Goba hits long, slow, with a big reload, there are a lot of windows to use AA, which isn't much fun. Ult is expensive and too strong
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 exploration ability in the overworld does seem to be unmatched more height than Venti, more horizontal distance than C0 Xiao (not sure if C1 could perhaps get further with that 3rd charge of his skill), same cooldown as uncharged Kazuha (and the only thing he had over Venti exploration-wise was a shorter cooldown, Kazuha had less height). Wanderer truly is the best character for wandering. pair him up with a character that can apply Hydro to the area or to self (Barbara would actually work pretty well for this) to increase exploration ability by 20%
Calling that a resistance buff is kinda overselling it since he's way more vulnerable midair, not even his knockback recovery makes up for that tbh. But yeah as a fellow lost prayer enjoyer, dude go zoom in the overworld especially with anemo resonance. Even his normal walking looks cartoonish lol
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
@Megaloudis The Great Most of it is saying "what if the internet is bad" and it's obvious that you're looking for an excuse here cause if the internet is bad then obviously everything will suck. And yes it's only about tapping a button cause as far as reaction time goes you just need to not be mentally handicapped, this isn't Geometry Dash.
@Keku Wasn't expecting such a retarded comeback. You could've at least tried harder to prove your point but... well, Hoyoverse bootlickers in a nutshell 🤡
@MerkMD I think he's gonna be better if they don't change him from electro to anemo, idk man anemo damage dealer always feel so bland to play, only fun part of his kit are that he can fly and have short cooldown, Childe in the others hand blessed with one of the strongest element in the game, anemo actually a strong element too but not as a main damage dealer
@Ivy almost all the enemies are using range homing attack, the height advantage seem doesn't exist here when we getting all the auto aim attack from the enemies.
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.
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
@Karashuun bro get it through your head. Look at the past 5 stars that have been released, Taighnari, Cyno, Nilu, and now the Wanderer. All insanely weak, even as main DPS units they have no damage, thats their entire fucking purpose is damage. Hoyo fans have been on their knees for so long they will pull for anything. So they're not gonna make anymore strong units. The last 5 star OP character was yelan and thats almost a year ago now. So you can forget about Dehya being worth a fuck. Find an older unit like Hu Too and c6 them. The Ganyus & Hu Tous are of the past bro, literally every single 5 star unit in a row are disgusting weak. EVERY SINGLE ONE except Nahdia. You just better pray that people stop sucking and stop wishing on weak characters. If people did that, hoyo would be forced to increase their damage and make better kits. But I doubt most players are smart enough to understand that. They see OH he can fly, im pulling. It's only until they fight domains, bosses, elite bosses, and abysss (which is 90% of the game) do they realize they fucked up bc they can't clear & keep dying. I feel even worse for the new players because they don't have the 3 fully stacked 4 star units to make the Wanderer and average dps dealer. Its just sad AF. P.s- I was a wanderer fan, but im not an idiot. Im not pulling dog shit, I still love his lore, just not his playable character.
YES THANK YOU. We have to make hoyo stop producing such weak characters. Its pathetic, he's a main DPS unit, that mean his entire purpose is DAMAGE PER SECOND. C1 klee does more damage in her cycle than he does. How fucking sick is that. And people still pull for him knowing that. Its honestly so sad dude.
In your case I would go for Raiden 100%. Many people have problem with hu at c0 and stamina management. Raiden national can destroy almost everything in abyss very reliably and also the rotation of this team is one of the easiest ones.
abyss can be cleared with even all 4* team comp. national, taser, hyperbloom, reverse melt, etc. u are maybe just the type of player who never want to build their 4* because u think they are trash and 5* are better LOL and naybe just skill issue and not having a better understanding of the team synergies
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.
exploration does seem to be where he truly shines more height than Venti, more horizontal distance than C0 Xiao (not sure if C1 could perhaps get further with that 3rd charge of his skill), same cooldown as uncharged Kazuha (and the only thing he had over Venti exploration-wise was a shorter cooldown, Kazuha had less height). Wanderer truly is the best character for wandering. pair him up with a character that can apply Hydro to the area or to self (Barbara would actually work pretty well for this) to increase exploration ability by 20%
@Egor Alikin c6 my ass, not every ppl who play her has c6 (c1 and 2 is considerable to every ppl but c6 not) and even taser shes usually sub dps if the driver is sucrose, and if shes the driver, the main dmg came from xiangling/fischl too
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.
@R.R. they cant nerf anything in this game becuase then it becomes a scam for those people who spent money to get him when he was stronger thats the reason new character accept for nahida are so balanced becuase they dont want to create an other bennet or ganyu/hutao/ayaka/xiangling
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. 😭
You don't deserve to get him. Stop giving hoyo money for dog shit characters. You literally admitted how pathetically weak he is to be a 5 star, and a main dps on top it. DPS meaning damage per second, main meaning he's supposed to be doing the most damage. After all of that you still pull for him. Hoyo will always fuck this community over bc we have no backbone.
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
@ihaney and why the fuck not? I think you forgot that this game is literally _for fun._ Your analogy is off because you compared pixels to a car. Sure, when you're picking a car and don't want to end up in a car accident somewhere you need to pick a proper one. But this is a gacha game for god's sakes, stfu with the elitist 'your waifu/husbando is a rundown trash car' and let ppl play the game
@ihaney Some people just play characters they like the design of. I just play for fun. You're assuming I swiped. I just collect free primos from events. I hate people like you, making assumptions with no basis, and spout bs out of their mouths. Calling someone stupid based off of assumptions, who's really stupid here? I could just assume you're someone who spends most of his free time, insulting people on UAclips to feel better about himself
Thats pretty stupid James. Thats like saying, this car is not what I thought it would be. After test driving it, I've confirmed that its just not reliable. I can see that its leaking oil, and the steering wheel shook as I dove it. But I tell you what, I'll buy it anyway. Thanks Hoyo *gets down on knees
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
taking a page from the monster's grossly dislocated hitboxes. it's also the same as mona. when i first saw her i was certain that she'd be invulnerable while sprinting.
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
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 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
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
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.
Yep, I quit for a couple months when Dodoco tales event was live and I've regretted it ever since - even if I'll never end up using it. They need to come up with some sort of special shop for players to acquire past even items. One of the events had a bow that I completed the full event but I forgot to claim the rewards so now I'm stuck at R2 even though I played through everything. Really frustrating.
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)
I mean. He flies. He looks like he does similar damage to xiao who is also a main dps. he seemingly works a lot better than xiao with many popular comps like tazer or freeze as a non-main-damage-dealer. Saying this feels a little weird but i'm happy hoyo didn't make him totally op because i like the stance of keepings any characters relevant. I'm saying a little weird because he - from what i've seen - *seems* op. but i mean not as op as i thought he might turn out. On the other hand faruzan. Honestly. Looks disappointing. If they make a unit that niche, **then** i think it's ok to make them somewhat "op" for their role. Like at least better than generalist supporters.
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
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.
*Whoever's reading this, i pray that whatever you are going through gets better and whatever you're struggling with or worrying about is going to be fine and that everyone has a fantastic day!*
True but the stamina consumption is fast af. You gotta keep a hydro on the team to support that. So ironically he’s really fun to play with Childe (Harbingers unite)
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.
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.
I’ve been sold on pulling for the Shogun in the second half for weeeeks… then I trialed Scaramouche. 😂 sitting at 60 pity with 20 wishes not knowing wtf to do lmao
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)
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. :)
im so happy years of wait finally over , i love him he is perfect i have C0 faruzan so imma skip her ill try something else but hear me out he iz perfect! i just love hiS ATTITUDE, his story , and i hope his old design will be available as a skin bc i wanna switch , he is so funnn so adorable , i dont care about dmg as i have plenty characters but scara is the one that kept me playing and waiting , plus his SCARABOSSS design is stunning , im glad we get to play with him, the next on my list is dottore god knows i wish his would be playable someday i dont have high hopes but still
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
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’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
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
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
After watching this video, I wanted wanderer, but I was only at 10 pity , I went in no hope at all and was like let's Just build pity , and thennn I got wanderer in a single pull at that , after that I did another single and got the mint girl ( new 4 star , can't spell her name sry )
is wanderer still trapped by the ice and mirror traps if he rises up with the jump button? on that note, how high can he go while still keeping the bennett buffs?
As far as I can tell his hitbox always acts as if he's on the ground below him up to a certain range. I'm no gamedev but this must've been their idea for balance so he wouldn't just avoid everything that's ground based. It could be said that the hover is still valuable as it gives a main dps their own separate stamina bar during it which makes dodging and positioning easier on the team (C0 Hu Tao havers know the struggle of stamina management... T.T). Until theory crafters figure out the details, the ideal mindset to have is to position yourself as if you were standing on the gorund beneath you and enjoy the extra stamina.
I was going to maybe get him if his damage is good, ganyu is kinda difficult to use now as her charged attack take too much time. I’m not worried about my other team rn it’s doing fine is just my ganyu benny kazuha layla team is kinda lacking damage and idk who to pull that’s easy to fit into my teams and can clear abyss easier than ganyu… I was thinking ayaka but idk if her damage is worth too
ayaka does way more dmg than ganyu, but cryo lately doesn't do much in the abyss after sumeru released, i suggest getting other element characters like raiden, and yelan.
@ihaney Why are you so mad omg?? Not everyone cares about the abyss and difficult domain-type events, some people just like to explore and do puzzles. I actually pulled him for exploration, his personality and his design, I've never really cared about his dmg since I already have a C6 hypercarry anyway (I didn't whale, just saved for a year and a half xD)
@ihaney Sounds like you mad because you didn't get him lmao. And just because I said he isn't the strongest like Xiao, doesn't mean he isn't strong. He's more than capable than clearling abyss 12 and his utility alone makes him a way more valuable character
Thats such copium, every wanderer fan bragged about how he's gonna be OP. I don't see anything about damage anymore, I just see "well he's good for exploration". Bitch we have to fight domains & bosses we don't have time to fly around the map TF. Exploration doesn't mean shit, A for Main DPS and S+ for exploration, nobody wants that LMAO
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!
I play just to relax, when I have enough for a 10pull I use it and I have fun playing with it. Not sure how to optimally use how albedo with him yet but I ll get there
its bc its their favourite character .....its your choice if you wanna pull or not. like me, i dont really care about kits and stuff. i really love him and i dont really care about his kit. hes good enough for me though. scara has a large fanbase which is why everyone wants to pull for him. everyone has their own reasons for their choices
I like him and all but.. Kind of disappointed at his dmg Edit : nvm i just figured that's what a character meant to be a DPS is usually like, and it counts in how much dmg in a certain time not in one hit
Qiqi visited me at the high end of pity, now I might not get him and spend months being afraid to blow the next chance on something less worthwhile and probably miss out on the future new 4 stars again :(
I like the concept of him and he looks fun but I also want Raiden shogun so I'm having a inner conflict with myself on who to get does anyone have any pointers on which on I should get
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.
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.
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. 💙
Btw, Wanderer said he is not a fan of Dango food. :( Ok, I will show myself out.
@airred Yes, he can cook better than Ei
Its okay atleast he did the fandango
Bro impersonating Cyno.
what about hovering higher does he still take damage ?
Maybe because Ei cooked them?
The fact that you can use his Charged Attacks without consuming blue stamina bar while flying and deal lots of DMG is the best thing ever from his kit
@lel pro it's in the talent description 😅😂. You can spam charged attack for mobs because it's pretty quick but you should only charge once before normal attacks as it gives extra attack speed from the artifacts.
@ihaney yeah his raw damage sucks
If you have his signature then no
THATS COPIUM BRO. The dude requires 3 full built supports just to make him strong enough to beat bosses. ITS RIDICULOUS
Nah it will be patched just check the next update description
When Bennett is a better Anemo Support than a dedicated Anemo Support.
no faruzan buffs more than bennet for scara
@Big Chongus also when wanderer swirls pyro he gets a 20% atk bonus
Thanks to her sucks energy regeneration
@Saahil 08he’s an adventurer
thats why i use both
Seeing xiangling’s burst from the air..my god she’s so op
@Shade her skill isnt her main source of damage, you use the pepper dropped by gouba to boost your damage with your burst and after rotating to attack buffers like kazu and benny you cast ulti and all those attack buffs (pepper, kazu, benny, noblese, etc.) will snapshot/transfer to her ultimates damage and boom... a 6 star
@frawg 😂
@Sara Jamal I think it takes her from good to broken, but she’s still good w/o it
@Recyclops tbh, c4 is so required
@Shade I agree with something, in the open world, in my opinion, she is terrible. Goba hits long, slow, with a big reload, there are a lot of windows to use AA, which isn't much fun. Ult is expensive and too strong
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 exploration ability in the overworld does seem to be unmatched
more height than Venti, more horizontal distance than C0 Xiao (not sure if C1 could perhaps get further with that 3rd charge of his skill), same cooldown as uncharged Kazuha (and the only thing he had over Venti exploration-wise was a shorter cooldown, Kazuha had less height).
Wanderer truly is the best character for wandering.
pair him up with a character that can apply Hydro to the area or to self (Barbara would actually work pretty well for this) to increase exploration ability by 20%
Calling that a resistance buff is kinda overselling it since he's way more vulnerable midair, not even his knockback recovery makes up for that tbh. But yeah as a fellow lost prayer enjoyer, dude go zoom in the overworld especially with anemo resonance. Even his normal walking looks cartoonish lol
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
Bruh nobody cares, he can't do ant damage, stamina don't make a shit when you're dead.
@Megaloudis The Great Most of it is saying "what if the internet is bad" and it's obvious that you're looking for an excuse here cause if the internet is bad then obviously everything will suck.
And yes it's only about tapping a button cause as far as reaction time goes you just need to not be mentally handicapped, this isn't Geometry Dash.
@TheGamer FE It's not only about tapping a button. Have you even read the comment? Or are you a similar case to him🤡?
@Keku Wasn't expecting such a retarded comeback. You could've at least tried harder to prove your point but... well, Hoyoverse bootlickers in a nutshell 🤡
@TheGamer FE bro literally just replied to me without reading megaloud's comment lol, know the context first, dumb dumb
This is literally the "the boss when you fight him, the boss when you unlock him as an unlockable character" meme.
tbf in the game, playable characters literally just mean the traveller invites them to do stuff w them so they arent gonna be doing their best 🥴
@Feiht His national team? The strongest team in the game?
@Feiht he's not a meta... Pulling for yelan is a much better bet!!!
@Blue Childe ain't shite
@MerkMD I think he's gonna be better if they don't change him from electro to anemo, idk man anemo damage dealer always feel so bland to play, only fun part of his kit are that he can fly and have short cooldown, Childe in the others hand blessed with one of the strongest element in the game, anemo actually a strong element too but not as a main damage dealer
it is weird indeed how he has no resistance when he's literally flying above the enemies, or most of them
i was so shocked the first time i saw a metachurl slam an ax on the ground and wanderer who was flying got damaged 🤯
@taru xiao players like me know how bullshit enemy midair targeting is. Its like aimbot.
@Ivy almost all the enemies are using range homing attack, the height advantage seem doesn't exist here when we getting all the auto aim attack from the enemies.
@Ivy He doesn't have a height advantage, dude literally talks about it in the video 💀
it's to balance out his height advantage
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.
the fact that he is indisputably the best open world explorer should not be understated
@G'alatea can you ever go a minute without spamming Kazuha? Of course not, rabid Kazuha stans won’t ever change
@unluckystreak horizontal movement. And you can’t switch characters in midair. Kazuha stans need to calm down
@unluckystreak horizontal movement. And you can’t switch characters in midair. Kazuha stand need to calm down
@Liyandani cool story, kazuha noob
@G'alatea predictable and unoriginal comment. Noob
I just wish his E was able to be used while still in the air. Would make him a strong exploration contender
Was looking for this info, thanks.
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
Me who skipped everyone except for Zhongli 💀
@Karashuun bro get it through your head. Look at the past 5 stars that have been released, Taighnari, Cyno, Nilu, and now the Wanderer. All insanely weak, even as main DPS units they have no damage, thats their entire fucking purpose is damage. Hoyo fans have been on their knees for so long they will pull for anything. So they're not gonna make anymore strong units. The last 5 star OP character was yelan and thats almost a year ago now. So you can forget about Dehya being worth a fuck. Find an older unit like Hu Too and c6 them. The Ganyus & Hu Tous are of the past bro, literally every single 5 star unit in a row are disgusting weak. EVERY SINGLE ONE except Nahdia.
You just better pray that people stop sucking and stop wishing on weak characters. If people did that, hoyo would be forced to increase their damage and make better kits. But I doubt most players are smart enough to understand that. They see OH he can fly, im pulling. It's only until they fight domains, bosses, elite bosses, and abysss (which is 90% of the game) do they realize they fucked up bc they can't clear & keep dying. I feel even worse for the new players because they don't have the 3 fully stacked 4 star units to make the Wanderer and average dps dealer. Its just sad AF.
P.s- I was a wanderer fan, but im not an idiot. Im not pulling dog shit, I still love his lore, just not his playable character.
YES THANK YOU. We have to make hoyo stop producing such weak characters. Its pathetic, he's a main DPS unit, that mean his entire purpose is DAMAGE PER SECOND. C1 klee does more damage in her cycle than he does. How fucking sick is that. And people still pull for him knowing that. Its honestly so sad dude.
In your case I would go for Raiden 100%. Many people have problem with hu at c0 and stamina management. Raiden national can destroy almost everything in abyss very reliably and also the rotation of this team is one of the easiest ones.
abyss can be cleared with even all 4* team comp. national, taser, hyperbloom, reverse melt, etc. u are maybe just the type of player who never want to build their 4* because u think they are trash and 5* are better LOL and naybe just skill issue and not having a better understanding of the team synergies
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.
exploration does seem to be where he truly shines
more height than Venti, more horizontal distance than C0 Xiao (not sure if C1 could perhaps get further with that 3rd charge of his skill), same cooldown as uncharged Kazuha (and the only thing he had over Venti exploration-wise was a shorter cooldown, Kazuha had less height).
Wanderer truly is the best character for wandering.
pair him up with a character that can apply Hydro to the area or to self (Barbara would actually work pretty well for this) to increase exploration ability by 20%
Our boy Benny keeps showing these new support characters why he will always be THE best support in the game.
And then he shits himself when a non-ATK scaling character comes out 🤧
A lot of teams dont really need him anymore. Good cause he's ugly anyways
except Geo and the Quicken teams. Gorou is better than him in Geo teams, and Bennett is bad in Quicken teams because he ruins it.
@Egor Alikin c6 my ass, not every ppl who play her has c6 (c1 and 2 is considerable to every ppl but c6 not) and even taser shes usually sub dps if the driver is sucrose, and if shes the driver, the main dmg came from xiangling/fischl too
@Cienne Al why tho? yelan c6 is a rocket launcher main dps, and kokomi in a tazer/fridge/hyperbloom is a main dps/enabler
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.
Bennett is still basically god of showcases
@Xd Gamer very good point
@R.R. they cant nerf anything in this game becuase then it becomes a scam for those people who spent money to get him when he was stronger thats the reason new character accept for nahida are so balanced becuase they dont want to create an other bennet or ganyu/hutao/ayaka/xiangling
@BurgerBrush vaporise skill nuke
FR. Except Yelan 🥲
@Niel Bryan Hernamdez mantle of archon had already been took, 'lest the pyro archon is an hp scaling bennett
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. 😭
@Tobias Hand Bennett zhongli I think these 2 xtier characters are the reason they don't make op males 😂😂😂
@DragonSoul621 I think it's the developers who have a bigger boner towards making female characters
me when I just fucking lie about the game
@ihaney My brain has no space to consider an opinion as dumb as yours.
You don't deserve to get him. Stop giving hoyo money for dog shit characters. You literally admitted how pathetically weak he is to be a 5 star, and a main dps on top it. DPS meaning damage per second, main meaning he's supposed to be doing the most damage. After all of that you still pull for him. Hoyo will always fuck this community over bc we have no backbone.
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
@ihaney and why the fuck not? I think you forgot that this game is literally _for fun._ Your analogy is off because you compared pixels to a car. Sure, when you're picking a car and don't want to end up in a car accident somewhere you need to pick a proper one. But this is a gacha game for god's sakes, stfu with the elitist 'your waifu/husbando is a rundown trash car' and let ppl play the game
Bro just wanted to pull 😭
@ihaney Some people just play characters they like the design of. I just play for fun. You're assuming I swiped. I just collect free primos from events. I hate people like you, making assumptions with no basis, and spout bs out of their mouths. Calling someone stupid based off of assumptions, who's really stupid here? I could just assume you're someone who spends most of his free time, insulting people on UAclips to feel better about himself
Thats pretty stupid James. Thats like saying, this car is not what I thought it would be. After test driving it, I've confirmed that its just not reliable. I can see that its leaking oil, and the steering wheel shook as I dove it. But I tell you what, I'll buy it anyway. Thanks Hoyo *gets down on knees
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's Hitbox is at the ground, his body is technically above the ground but his Hitbox is at the ground
taking a page from the monster's grossly dislocated hitboxes.
it's also the same as mona. when i first saw her i was certain that she'd be invulnerable while sprinting.
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
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 was really disappointed after seeing the damage 😔
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
Im glad having Faruzan without Wanderer, Diluc appeared in 31 pull , im Happy for losing that fast 50/50 , Al Haytham is coming 🙌
congratulations everyone who got wanderer and came here to see guide video
Thxs, really need some advice for him
I still love him, meta who?
tighnari 🥲
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
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.
Always appreciate the honest and detailed reviews
Yep, I quit for a couple months when Dodoco tales event was live and I've regretted it ever since - even if I'll never end up using it. They need to come up with some sort of special shop for players to acquire past even items. One of the events had a bow that I completed the full event but I forgot to claim the rewards so now I'm stuck at R2 even though I played through everything. Really frustrating.
Really appreciate the honest review as always ☁️
I felt the same with, even c6, Heizo. Anemo Dps just feel like they dont hit nearly as hard as other elements.
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)
I mean. He flies. He looks like he does similar damage to xiao who is also a main dps. he seemingly works a lot better than xiao with many popular comps like tazer or freeze as a non-main-damage-dealer. Saying this feels a little weird but i'm happy hoyo didn't make him totally op because i like the stance of keepings any characters relevant. I'm saying a little weird because he - from what i've seen - *seems* op. but i mean not as op as i thought he might turn out.
On the other hand faruzan. Honestly. Looks disappointing. If they make a unit that niche, **then** i think it's ok to make them somewhat "op" for their role. Like at least better than generalist supporters.
Diona shields, heals, and gives EM boost…thats who Im putting in a team with Venti and Xinqiu for crowd control/freeze
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
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.
*Whoever's reading this, i pray that whatever you are going through gets better and whatever you're struggling with or worrying about is going to be fine and that everyone has a fantastic day!*
@S hugss mate
Thank you so much 😭 just had my finals and I needed this 🥹
Thank you so much, I really need this
@Flasher Zoom not until we lost 50/50
Same to you!!!
That is what i want to hear "Pull for raiden if You struggle in the Abyss" thanks ❤👍
In full team, I’m happy with how my Wanderer performs
At least his fly ability doesn't need 40 secs to wait as Tartaglia 😂
True but the stamina consumption is fast af. You gotta keep a hydro on the team to support that. So ironically he’s really fun to play with Childe (Harbingers unite)
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.
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.
As I suspected, he is going to be a good utility exploration
I’ve been sold on pulling for the Shogun in the second half for weeeeks… then I trialed Scaramouche. 😂 sitting at 60 pity with 20 wishes not knowing wtf to do lmao
Save them for Shogun
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)
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. :)
im so happy years of wait finally over , i love him he is perfect i have C0 faruzan so imma skip her ill try something else but hear me out he iz perfect! i just love hiS ATTITUDE, his story , and i hope his old design will be available as a skin bc i wanna switch , he is so funnn so adorable , i dont care about dmg as i have plenty characters but scara is the one that kept me playing and waiting , plus his SCARABOSSS design is stunning , im glad we get to play with him, the next on my list is dottore god knows i wish his would be playable someday i dont have high hopes but still
I hope the hovering has a bug not for primos but so that it’s easier to not dodge in battle
Maybe you can replace Zhongli with Diona? At C6 she gives EM and Shield and healing. Along with Bennetteand Faruzan.
After hoarding 120 pulls I suddenly don't feel like pulling for him anymore 😐
Maybe his mother is telling you to pull for her instead
"so, what do i think about scaramouche doing the fandango?" got me weeping and laughing so hard right there
Man i havent been on Genshin in a long time man, been waiting for this guy to come out now imma go for him
his resistance to interruption is definitely a nerf. it was nerfed boy can't have it all
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
try incorporating Yae to proc his burst's passive. i wanna know if it's viable
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 🤣
hes insane like HES SO FUN TO PLAY! i love him sm
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
Wanders Troupe actually refers to a group of musicians whose instruments worked also as weapons
Thanks for this awesome honest content!
I can't believe childe is stronger than him and he's ranked higher
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. :)
When kazuha, a support can crit higher than him with minimal effort, you know he’s not that strong as a dps
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
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
After watching this video, I wanted wanderer, but I was only at 10 pity , I went in no hope at all and was like let's Just build pity , and thennn I got wanderer in a single pull at that , after that I did another single and got the mint girl ( new 4 star , can't spell her name sry )
I wanna see a character in the future inspired by the Gladiator set...
is wanderer still trapped by the ice and mirror traps if he rises up with the jump button? on that note, how high can he go while still keeping the bennett buffs?
Your videos always have interesting things that make me very excited to watch it
Im still disappointed he is not an electro unit. It doesn’t make sense for me as a day one player
As far as I can tell his hitbox always acts as if he's on the ground below him up to a certain range.
I'm no gamedev but this must've been their idea for balance so he wouldn't just avoid everything that's ground based.
It could be said that the hover is still valuable as it gives a main dps their own separate stamina bar during it which makes dodging and positioning easier on the team (C0 Hu Tao havers know the struggle of stamina management... T.T).
Until theory crafters figure out the details, the ideal mindset to have is to position yourself as if you were standing on the gorund beneath you and enjoy the extra stamina.
I like his e skill where i can ascend into the sky only if allows us more height to ascend
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!
Pulled him and Yanfei on a first attempt, now wondering what to do. Have about 11k primogen left.
I was going to maybe get him if his damage is good, ganyu is kinda difficult to use now as her charged attack take too much time.
I’m not worried about my other team rn it’s doing fine is just my ganyu benny kazuha layla team is kinda lacking damage and idk who to pull that’s easy to fit into my teams and can clear abyss easier than ganyu…
I was thinking ayaka but idk if her damage is worth too
ayaka does way more dmg than ganyu, but cryo lately doesn't do much in the abyss after sumeru released, i suggest getting other element characters like raiden, and yelan.
He is a utility character. Nothing else. Too many dps already.
Basically he doesn't fly he just grows invisible feet that enemies can still hit XD
He may not be the strongest unit out there, but he's fun as hell and the best character for exploration
@ihaney so true lmao.
@ihaney Why are you so mad omg?? Not everyone cares about the abyss and difficult domain-type events, some people just like to explore and do puzzles. I actually pulled him for exploration, his personality and his design, I've never really cared about his dmg since I already have a C6 hypercarry anyway (I didn't whale, just saved for a year and a half xD)
@ihaney Sounds like you mad because you didn't get him lmao. And just because I said he isn't the strongest like Xiao, doesn't mean he isn't strong. He's more than capable than clearling abyss 12 and his utility alone makes him a way more valuable character
Thats such copium, every wanderer fan bragged about how he's gonna be OP. I don't see anything about damage anymore, I just see "well he's good for exploration". Bitch we have to fight domains & bosses we don't have time to fly around the map TF. Exploration doesn't mean shit, A for Main DPS and S+ for exploration, nobody wants that LMAO
I like his character but I struggle with abyss so I might just save for raiden
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!
So You're just like most players
I play just to relax, when I have enough for a 10pull I use it and I have fun playing with it.
Not sure how to optimally use how albedo with him yet but I ll get there
its bc its their favourite character .....its your choice if you wanna pull or not. like me, i dont really care about kits and stuff. i really love him and i dont really care about his kit. hes good enough for me though. scara has a large fanbase which is why everyone wants to pull for him. everyone has their own reasons for their choices
@taru me when i lied
i mean personally and it seems a lot of other people just find him really fun to play
I’ll try wanderer, ganyu(support), shenhe and kokomi freeze comp
I wonder if Wanderer using Wanderer Troupe artifact and just spam charge attack after elemental skill
I like him and all but.. Kind of disappointed at his dmg
Edit : nvm i just figured that's what a character meant to be a DPS is usually like, and it counts in how much dmg in a certain time not in one hit
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!
so i unexpectedly got him at like 20 pity with just 6 wishes on the banner, therefore time to look for a build yayy
Qiqi visited me at the high end of pity, now I might not get him and spend months being afraid to blow the next chance on something less worthwhile and probably miss out on the future new 4 stars again :(
I have lost prayers on wanderer. With anemo resonance and rosaria's nighttime passive, he goes zoom
I like the concept of him and he looks fun but I also want Raiden shogun so I'm having a inner conflict with myself on who to get does anyone have any pointers on which on I should get
He's as mid as Cyno but still a better pull since he's good for exploration.
He is rarely useful for exploration, just to get some oculuses high above, that's it, Mona, Sayu, Kazuha is way more useful in exploration
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.
I rolled on the weapon banner to get Sac Sword for Xingqiu but ended up getting his signature weapon... Coincidence? I think not!
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.
12:03 omg tysm he seems so fun it tempts me to spend my primo I'm saving for Raiden, 😅
I just got his signature weaper and after watching this video i think its best not to pull for him.
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. 💙
Maybe hoyoverse will also buff him like when they buffed zhongli
Got him on my 5th single pull, was well into pitty thou.
If the character needs benny and Sara it's better to pull for raiden rather than the new characters lol
