Pyro Traveler is a viable unit due to their ability to provide off-field Pyro application, especially for characters like Kinich or Chevreuse teams, making them a usable unit compared to their other forms. Pyro Traveler also has a good quick-swap Elemental Burst with decently high scaling, which can be used as a nuke. However, their Pyro application uptime is too slow and short, with their Skill ending abruptly before your Main DPS can do their full rotations.

Selecting the right build for your Pyro Traveler can significantly enhance their effectiveness in battle. Whether you aim for a Pyro DPS role or a more supportive build, this section provides the best options for maximizing their potential.
3.1. Natlan Pyro DPS Build
Given their Pyro nature and access to Natlan Artifact Sets, particularly with their Elemental Skill based on the Nightsoul Point system, the Traveler is ideally suited for the Cinder City Artifact Set. The Traveler is built with the Cinder City Artifact Set in mind.
It’s recommended to prioritize Energy Recharge, then focus on CRIT stats and ATK rolls since their abilities scale off standard ATK scalings.

Prioritize talents that enhance their damage output and Pyro application:

The Pyro Traveler’s Elemental Skill is their bread and butter for most of their damage, so this takes up the main priority among their talents, followed by the Elemental Burst for the quick nuke it provides.
