Tighnari Combos There are three recommended combos that Tighnari can perform: 1. Skill -> Charged Attack -> Burst -> Charged Attack (x2) - This is the most mechanically difficult combo. However, this combo allows Tighnari to have both his Burst affected by A1 and funnel particles from his Skill to his next Burst.
2. Skill -> Charged Attack (x3) -> Burst - Allows Tighnari's Burst to benefit from A1. However, this combo doesn't allow Tighnari to funnel particles from his Skill into his next Burst.
3. Skill -> Burst -> Charged Attack (x3) - Simplest combo to use, and generally weakest combo though it allows pre-funneling. His Burst does not benefit from A1 in this combo. It is recommended at C4 due to the EM buff. To perform these combos, follow these steps:

  • Hold Elemental Mastery artifacts for combos that benefit from A1.
  • Use a Catalyst to maximize Elemental Skills' effects.
  • Determine your Charged Attack and Burst order based on your team composition and needs.
Recommended Team Compositions - Tighnari (Catalyst) with Pyro and Adepts for high EM and ER potential. Farming Locations - Wanderlust Invocation (World Boss) is a great source for Tighnari artifacts and materials.

Tighnari's standard build revolves around him doing his Elemental Skill, Three Clusterbloom Arrows, an Elemental Burst, and promptly swapping out to another character.
Regarding Weapon Choices:

  • The First Great Magic: Weapon ranking is assuming 2 Gimmick stacks. It performs a bit worse in solo Dendro, but still remains a good option.
  • Elegy for the End: If Tighnari does not need the Energy Recharge that Elegy for the End provides, this weapon will perform worse than Scion of the Blazing Sun for his personal damage.
  • Scion of the Blazing Sun: At R5 this weapon is slightly worse than Thundering Pulse.
  • Slingshot: Significantly worse when fighting from a long range.
  • Range Gauge: This weapon is strong if you can get 3 passive stacks. At R5 with 3 passive stacks, this weapon performs similarly to Thundering Pulse.
  • Song of Stillness: Weapon ranking assumes passive is active. At R5, it performs similarly to Range Gauge.
  • Fading Twilight: If Tighnari does not need the Energy Recharge this weapon provides, it is similar to Prototype Crescent in terms of damage.
  • Prototype Crescent: At R5, this weapon is better than Slingshot. Notably, this weapon is heavily reliant on enemies having weakspots.

Regarding Artifact Sets:
  • Gilded Dreams: This set becomes slightly better than Wanderer's Troupe if Tighnari uses his Burst every time he uses his Skill.
  • Deepwood Memories (4): This is by far Tighnari's best set if no one else on the team is using it.

Regarding Artifact Main Stats and Substats: Energy Recharge: It is usually beneficial for Tighnari to use his Burst every time he uses his Skill if possible. His Energy Recharge needs vary widely, but provided they are low enough to be reachable, Bursting every Skill is a large DPS increase.
