Player Mistakes
Back to All Characters
It’s quite surprising that the first Dendro character inGenshin Impactis not a main DPS. Although he gives off that impression, Tighnari is actually better suited as a sub-DPS.

His performance will increase significantly with an Electro character, which makes it a “must” to bring an Electro unit into his team. The reason for this is the Spread reaction. This Dendro Elemental Reaction inGenshin Impactgreatly enhances Tighnari’s DPS, and his kit is basically catered to notably benefit from it. To properly build Tighnari inGenshin Impact, players should first get familiar with Dendro.
Tighnari Best Build In Genshin Impact
Because Dendro performs amazingly with Electro,Tighnari’s best build inGenshin Impacthighly relies on theSpreadElemental Reaction.
Best Artifacts For Tighnari
Artifact Set
The bonus from 4pc Gilded Dreams is potentially suitable formanyGenshin Impactcharacters, but it especially shines on Tighnari. The Forest Watcher can easily trigger the 4pc effect, which can grant him up to 150 Elemental Mastery. Considering how the Dendro + Electro Elemental Reaction works inGenshin Impact, this addition is massive and can make a large difference.
However, since everyone will start Sumeru with zero pieces of the Artifact, Travelers can temporarily use 4pc Wanderer’s Troupe for now.
Artifact Main Stat
The best Artifact main stats for Tighnari inGenshin ImpactisEM/Dendro/Crit. This is because many parts of Tighnari’s kit are affected by Elemental Mastery. For example, his Ascension Passive buffs his Charged Attack and Elemental Burst DMG based on his Elemental Mastery. Additionally, his best-in-slot weapon, Hunter’s Path, provides a flat DMG bonus according to his EM.
Because of this,Elemental Mastery is the better option compared to ATK. However, when it comes to Goblet,Dendro DMG Bonus is better than Elemental Mastery. This is due to the fact that all the flat DMG additions provided by Spread and Hunter’s Path will both be enhanced by the Dendro DMG stat. The same logic also allows Crit Circlet to outperform EM.
However, for those who are using Hunter’s Path, EM/EM/Crit is an acceptable temporary set. In all scenarios,avoid using triple EM artifacts.
Best Weapons For Tighnari
Tighnari inGenshin Impactshould be used as a quick-swap unit. After throwing his Elemental Skill, use his Charged Attack three times, then swap him out.
The best weapons for Tighnari inGenshin Impactare those that support this playstyle. Other thanHunter’s Path, players can use 5-star weapons likePolar StarandAqua Simulacra. Meanwhile, for 4-star options, Travelers can opt forTheViridescent Hunt,Windblume Ode,Blackcliff Warbow,andPrototype Crescent.
Viridescent Hunt is exclusively obtainable from theGenshin ImpactBattle Pass, while Blackcliff Warbow, Prototype Crescent,Slingshot, andHamayumiare all F2P weapons. Windblume Ode is also a free bow, but it’s event-limited, so it may be unavailable for some Travelers.
Genshin Impactis now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
