DPS External Buffs means the existence of a unit that provides ATK, or makes ATK less necessary (e.g. Bennett, Yun Jin) Wanderer focuses on doing damage by activating his elemental skill and performing boosted normal attacks. It should be noted that in this state, he does not have knockback resistance, so a shielder or other form of knockback immunity is recommended. It is not worth building ER to burst every rotation unless Wanderer is C2. Instead, bursting every other rotation is preferred. Regarding Weapon Choices: - Memory of Dust: This weapon can pull farther ahead than other options if Wanderer is shielded. If shielded, it maintains its ranking without Bennett and performs better than The Widsith with Bennett. - Dodoco Tales [R5]: This weapon uses a different rotation of E N1 CAx6 N1 CAx6 to maximize its passive. - The Widsith: Because Wanderer doesn't focus on Swirl damage, this weapon can be inconsistent if you get the EM buff. Regarding Artifact Sets: - Shimenawa's Reminiscence (4): If Wanderer is C2 or higher, it is not recommended to run this set. - Echoes of an Offering (4): If your ping is above 100, it is not recommended to run this set specifically. - Blizzard Strayer (4): This set synergizes well with the 20% Crit Rate that Wanderer gets from swirling Cryo. It is only recommended if you have close to 100% uptime on Freeze, which requires very specific teams. Despite this, with 100% Freeze uptime, this set is still worse than Desert Pavilion Chronicle (4). - Lavawalker (4): In teams with consistent Pyro application, this set is about equal to Echoes of an Offering (4). - Viridescent Venerer (4): In teams where the majority of the damage share is not linked to Wanderer, and there is no other viable holder of the set, he may use Viridescent Venerer (4).

Hanega: Song of the Wind

"The world dances in a weightless whirl, presenting a secret that can only be found in the flowers."

Concentrates the power of the winds to break free from the shackles of the earth, dealing AoE Anemo DMG before leaping into the air and entering the Windfavored state.

Windfavored
The Wanderer cannot perform Plunging Attacks in this state. When he uses Normal and Charged Attacks, they will be converted into Kuugo: Fushoudan and Kuugo: Toufukai respectively; the DMG they deal and their AoE will be increased, and their DMG will be considered Normal and Charged Attack DMG respectively. Kuugo: Toufukai will not consume Stamina.
The Wanderer will hover persistently during this time. While this state is active, the Wanderer's movements gain the following properties:
·Persistently consumes Kuugoryoku Points to maintain this hovering state.
·When sprinting, additional Kuugoryoku Points will be consumed for the Wanderer to accelerate mid-air. Holding sprint will cause persistent Kuugoryoku Point consumption to maintain speed. This effect will replace his default sprint.
·Jumping expends extra Kuugoryoku Points to increase hovering height. Holding jump will cause persistent Kuugoryoku Point consumption to keep increasing hovering height.

Running out of Kuugoryoku Points will end the Windfavored state.
A second cast during the duration of Windfavored will also end it.
