To get the constellations of the hero, you will need to knock out copies of it.

Wanderer's abilities

The wanderer is a catalyst, so his normal, charged attacks, as well as his elemental skill and ultimate skill, deal anemo damage and can cause a dispel reaction. Also, the elemental skill of the Wanderer allows him not only to soar for some time (like Venti, Kazuha), but also to move through the air.

Basic (Active) Skills

• Normal attacks: a series of blows with the blade of the wind (up to 3 hits), inflicting Anemo damage.
• Charged Attacks: spending 50 energy, inflicts an elemental area damage.

Hanega: Wind Song – An elemental skill. Focusing the power of the winds, it deals Anemo damage over an area and takes flight, entering the Wind Chosen form . The Wanderer floats in the air. While in the Chosen form, the damage and hit area of ​​​​his normal attacks are increased , and his charged attack does not consume stamina.

When using this skill, the character loses the ability to strike while falling!

The best constellations for the Wanderer are C1, C2 and C4.

Advantages and disadvantages of the Wanderer

Key advantages of the character are:

• Anemo infusion by default (catalyst) allows you to effectively play from reactions.
• As the character ascends, the chance of a critical hit increases, which makes it easier to balance the stats.
• High base attack (327 at level 90) makes Scaramuccia a powerful offensive hero (hyper carry) and a driver that binds the rest of the team's characters into a single whole.
• The Jade Flower passive talent gives bonuses to stats and elemental skill from interacting with Hydro, Pyro, Cryo and Electro: (no more than 2 at a time up to C4). Thus, synergy with other elements further strengthens the Wanderer while hovering.
• Convenience when exploring the world (elemental skill gives the hero the ability to soar above the ground, interaction with Hydro allows you to extend the ability).

The hero's obvious flaws :

• Requires a lot of active time on the field to fully realize the character's damage.
• Hovering can make character gameplay difficult.
• With an active elemental skill, you need to monitor the stamina bar, which is consumed quite quickly (partly solved by interacting with Hydro or using C6).
• Low base health and vulnerability while hovering against ranged attacks will most likely require a healer or shielder on the team.
• Up to C4, only 2 simultaneous buffs from the Jade Flower passive talent are available.

The composition of the squad for the Wanderer

Since the former Scaramuccia is an anemo character, he synergizes well with almost any element. However, don't forget about the bonuses provided by the Elemental Flower passive skill , which can be tailored to your needs.

List of characters potentially suitable for the Wanderer squad:

Character	Element	Weapon	Effects

Team Samples

The units for the Wanderer are quite diverse, since he can play both from his own damage and from reactions. The best Anemo support for him is Faruzan, since with an explosion of the elements she lowers the Anemo resistance of enemies by 30% and gives an Anemo damage bonus. Scaramuccia also wants a support, which will increase his resistance to interruption and give him more survivability, since he remains vulnerable during the stance. Let's highlight the following examples of commands:

Character 1	Character 2	Character 3	Character 4	Features
Wanderer	Xingqiu Yelan	Xiangling	Bennett	Pyro and Hydro Swirl (national team): Wanderer is the main damage dealer, hitting under reactions. It is best to use the Emerald Shadow set. Xingqiu/ Yelan's ult helps to Swirl Hydro with normal attacks. Xiang Ling summons Fire Whirl (although it is on the ground, this does not prevent Wanderer from dispelling). Bennet buffs and heals, closes Pyro Resonance (+25% Attack Power).
Wanderer	Faruzan	Xingqiu Yelan	Bennett	Faruzan's buffs increase the Wanderer's Anemo damage and at the same time cut off enemies' resistance to this element by 30%. The rest of the characters activate elemental skills that the Wanderer dispels, dealing high damage of their own, while dispersing damage from other elements.
Wanderer	Faruzan	MonaXingqiu Yelan	Diona Qiqi Layla	Hydro and Cryo Swirl: The wanderer hits with normal and charged attacks while hovering. Faruzan cuts resistances, gives Anemo damage bonus, helps replenish energy. Mona casts Hydro and increases all damage dealt with her ult. Can be replaced with Xingqiu or Yelan for more status. Dione provides a shield and heals. You can use Qiqi or Layla.
Wanderer	Faruzan	Raiden	Kokomi	Electro and Hydro Swirl: The wanderer inflates with normal attacks while hovering. Faruzan lowers Anemo resistance of enemies and grants bonus Anemo damage. Raiden gives Electro off-field status. Can act as a sub-dd. Kokomi applies the Wet effect to the enemy and heals.
Wanderer	Xingqiu	Bay Doe Fischl	Dori	More "cheap" alternative group with Electro and Hydro. The principle of operation is similar, only in this case there is no second Anemo (which means that it is advisable for the Wanderer to put on the Emerald Shadow) and there is no bonus to recovery from Raiden's ult. Instead, Dory helps replenish it, as she also gives an increase in VP. Also, the problem with the lack of energy is solved by frequently blowing Electro and Favonius weapons.
Wanderer	Thoma	Yae Miko Raiden	Bennett	Pyro and Electro Swirl: Wanderer - the basis of the group, hits with auto-attacks, inflating the elements. Toma applies a shield and allows Pyro to be dispelled by periodic damage from her ult. Yae Miko/Raiden use elemental skill for Electro status and additional damage. Bennet heals and buffs, triggers Pyro Resonance (+25% ATK).
Wanderer	Raiden Bay Doe Fischl	Sara	Zhongli Noelle	Squad with an emphasis on Swirling Electro: The wanderer with Electro his off-field skills Swirls the elements and lowers the resistance of enemies with the help of the Viridescent Venerer set. Sara buffs attack power. Zhong Li gives a shield and additionally cuts resistance. Can be replaced with Noelle.
Wanderer	Rosaria	Layla	Kokomi	Rosaria and Layla apply Cryo to the area. Layla also hangs a shield, protecting the Wanderer from damage. Kokomi heals and applies the Wet status to Freeze.
Wanderer	Kazuha	Xiangling Ganyu Mona	Layla Bennett	The squad with Kazuha, where he acts as a secondary damage dealer, pulls and disperses elements. After that, the Wanderer attacks the crowd of opponents with normal and charged attacks.
Wanderer	Candace	Xiangling	Jean	Pyro and Hydro Swirl (Candace C6): Wanderer is the main damage dealer. Candace buffs normal elemental attacks. Allows Hydro to dissipate on the final constellation, passively generating a wave of water. Xiang Ling creates a fiery whirlwind. Jean heals and restores energy to the Wanderer.
Wanderer	Mona	Ganyu	Layla Diona	Alternative Frozen team: Gan Yu and Laila create a field with periodic Cryo damage with the help of an elemental explosion and also pour energy into each other. For healing, you can use Dione, but she gives less damage and status. Mona for Hydro status and increased damage dealt to enemies with Omen (ults). The wanderer attacks enemies from a height with normal and charged attacks.
Wanderer	Faruzan	Zhongli	Yun Jin	Build option from the Wanderer's own damage (no reactions): Faruzan lowers Anemo resistance and grants an elemental buff. Zhong Li also cuts resistances and grants a shield. Yun Jin buffs normal attacks with her ult.
Wanderer	Lisa	Xiangling	Kaeya	F2P squad for beginners with Electro, Pyro and Cryo dispersal. Although up to C4, the Wanderer only gets 2 simultaneous bonuses from interacting with the elements, it is still a strong free unit. Especially if the Wanderer wears the Emerald Shadow.

How to play the Wanderer

Because the Wanderer is the primary damage dealer/driver , he needs to be on the battlefield much longer than the rest of the team. His basic attacks deal the bulk of his damage, while his allies either apply status effects to enemies, deal damage "out of pocket" (deal damage without being on the battlefield, such as Xiangling's ultimate), or buff his main damage dealer.

Therefore, his primary playstyle is a series of normal and charged attacks during his elemental skill (Wind's Chosen). Meanwhile, his passive abilities increase his own damage from dispelling status effects (Pyro, Hydro, Cryo, Electro) inflicted by allies.

It is important to keep an eye on your Kugo-Reku points when using an elemental skill.

Rotation Features

The Wanderer's rotations are pretty simple:

1. Activate the abilities of supports that inflict statuses/pocket hit/boost Skara.
2. Switch to Wanderer by squeezing it elemental skill.
3. Strike normal and charged attacks, in the Wind's Chosen state.

You should not press the jump and dash buttons (unless the Descent effect is in effect), so as not to increase the spending of the kugo-reku, and accordingly reduce the duration of the E-shki

1. Use the elemental burst (when the 2nd constellation is activated, apply the ult a second before the end of the action elemental skill for maximum damage bonus)
2. Repeat the rotation from the first step.

Сonclusion

Wanderer 5⭐️ Anemo DD is one of the most unusual Genshin Impact characters at the moment. This is a desirable hero for both beginners and experienced players. Despite some difficulties with the use of a completely new mechanic, it will be quite simple to understand it. This makes it possible to fully unlock the Wanderer's potential through simple rotations, potentially high damage, and dynamic gameplay.
