  1. I'm sorry how did Thoma (especially at C6) not get a mention. Him and Bennet are arguably his best/comfort comp…him batterying Bennet and provide a strong shield and enabling pyro resonance….

  2. Heyyyy it's out before the end of his banner lol!!

    He's not for me, but good luck to those who want him. Alhaitham though… that's a unit I will eagerly be consuming the TC content for as I'm on the fence about getting him.

  3. In my experience, he's great with Thoma for a double pyro with yunjin for pure NA focused damage for wanderer.

    But it still stands that without a shield (or even a damn crystallize shield), even a light object thrown to him is enough to stumble/stagger during his E stance….

  4. my personal favorite team is xiangling bennet zongli. Really solid single target multi target option and something i much rather prefer compared to bringing a non c6 faruzan since my 166 pulls apparently only got me 3 copies…

  5. The mention of C4 is completely wrong, you mentioned that it's wasted because absorbing 3 elements is difficult, well that's not at all what this constellation does. Once you absorb 1 element, you gain another random element buff for free, so you will always at least have 2 buffs. This is actually a pretty significant upgrade because every possible buff is a lot more dps. You either crit more often, have more ATK, get your burst back quicker (which if you're at C4 is a huge nuke) or you can just simply deal damage for a longer period of time. All of these are significant buffs

    Also, you didn't mention that with C6 you gain his A4 passive during every N3 string due to the additional hits which essentially makes it possible to animation cancel his N3 and therefore squeeze in 1-2 extra N3 strings

  6. My favourite team with wanderer is yunjin xingqiu and fischl , extremely high single target damage with fischl and xingqiu and yunjin buffing wanderer by and give him some shields in crystallization so he wouldn't get knockback and also her passive buff evreyone like mini kazuha buff

  7. Once again KQ fucking M has taken there time with this one for there will be more future teams for him this was a very down to earth and super fair judgment of this unit I appreciate him allot but waiting patiently for this it was always worth the wait thank you KQM team for your amazing in-depth review of this unit.
    P.s the vv mention was well placed as playing it for a while has seen among fall of I never thought the day would come where vv could have a fall of in certain circumstances where before it was everything just great work 👌🏾❤️‍🔥👊🏾

  8. You missed the oppertunity to mention Thoma as a shielder. In particular, I prefer him over Zhongli because (1) the extra red shred is almost redudant with Faruzan and Thoma with Bennett give the pyro resonance buff, which makes up for it; (2) Thoma can provide some extra pyro particles for Bennet and vice versa which help their ER needs quite a bit. Especially, Wanderers running Bennett may have noticed that Bennett without massive ER can slow down the rotation.

  9. Waited two years for him to release and I'm not even slightly disappointed with how he turned out at all 😤
    An absolute machine gun of Anemo damage and adds a new, different type of gameplay feel that makes him stand out completely from the usual crowd.

    I love running two teams with him personally; Wanderer/Venti/Faruzan/Jean, raw Anemo damage with the perfect crowd control and buffs to set up Wanderer to deal a ton of damage AND there's literally zero possibility of having energy issues, and Wanderer/Mona/Faruzan/Layla, Mona's taunt and Layla's shields help with the lack of healing and both of their elemental infusions help boost his personal DPS and field time by a little more while Mona's buff is also greatly appreciated.

  10. Always thankful for your insights! 😀

    Maybe it was already mentioned somewhere in the comments, but the explanation for C4 seems a bit off for me, because you don't need to actively absorb 3 elements to make use of it.
    He just gets a random elemental buff on top of the ones he has absorbed (maximum of 3 elements at a time).
    So even if you are able to let him absorb only one element he will get a second one randomly.

  11. So have C6 Faruzan and C6 Jean available. Would you pair him with those 2 and someone else? Was thinking maybe C2 Yae Miko since I have her signature weapon? C1 Ganyu has Amos, C6 Fischl, C0 Raiden would be easy to apply electro?

  12. These new videos are way too soft when it comes to evaluating anything. Everything is worded in a way to pander to people who like X character just so nobody gets mad instead of giving useful information. When everything is good and viable nothing really is.

    Also no mention about the god awful Faruzan energy reqs.

  13. I'm surprised not to see thoma making it into the defensive options since he can enable pyro resonance if paired with bennett, also being able to give a decent boost to normal/charged atks (or even plunging at the end of the windfavored state) with his c6, having the ability to take bennett's place in regards to being the source of pyro for his A2 and a possible nobless holder if bennett's unable to make it in his team, the latter point also enables a variety of characters to make into the team since the shielding requirement is met, an example of this is possibly rosaria or ganyu, them being buffers, in regards to either Rosaria's A4 or wanderer's A2, and sub dpses, or venti if c0 faruzan and in aoe situation, in this case thoma brings a very useful shield and the ability for wanderer to absorb pyro (and maybe nobless) besides enabling venti to assorb pyro with his burst if in full em/hybrid build… and then obviously giving a pretty decent shield and continuing to there being resistance to interruption with his burst if his E shield breaks.

  14. 1 thing that worth mentioning is while Jean C4 can help him, her ult can push small enemies outside of circle and you might not get Anemo shred bc they can't go inside the circle.

  15. Wanderers talent buffs are indeed worth chasing for. 20% crit rate can matter for getting a good crit ratio, and the 30% base attack buff is a notable increase in damage. Hydro may help sometimes in better managing your rotations, or improving the timing of C2 Wanderer's burst, though this isn't really needed usually. It's certainly important to consider. I wasn't able to tell if the electro absorption mattered, but I feel like that one is not good enough to care about.

  16. Thoughts on Wanderer Morgana variation? Basically a freeze team that uses Mona Omen extension + Faruzan + TTDS + Freeze to Amp his damage while providing defensive and offensive utility. Running Layla for a shield and cryo app.

    Freeze keeping them in place for charge spam actually feels great to play. I've been having a lot of fun with it but most people see Bennett as a necessity for hypercarry. I wonder how his staple teams may change

  17. for the shielder options, Xinyan is actually very strong (at c2).
    -auto crit on burst allows you to run favonius claymore without investing into crit rate
    -this means that you can fully invest into either def/def/def for a good shield, or atk/phys/c.dmg for a nuke support. focusing on ER substats of course.
    -her burst has a 15s CD and costs 60 energy, compared to thoma's 20s 65(at c4) burst, so she has faster rotations if you run faruzan(20s) since you burst first on xinyan.
    -she generates 4 particles per E compared to thoma's 3 so she can battery herself and bennett if needed
    -c2 creates a lv3 shield so you have close to 100%uptime on shields, while having pyro applicattion that is not tied to his NA/CA.
    -self pyro application on swap allows you to get the pyro buff even without enemies present, allowing you to get easy 2 ascension buffs if run with someone like XQ,fischl,rosaria,etc…
    -she can run millelith for a fatter shield and also buffing your scara, or noblesse if no one on your team has it.
    -with bennett, her burst deals a respectable amount of dmg when built for it. without benny, triple def+millelith makes her shield pretty solid.

  18. As Faruzanless F2P I use mainly 3 teams (with dodoco shimenawa)

    Wanderer Thoma c6 Bennet Jean being the most energy confortable

    Wanderer Thoma Bennet Yelan being the most fun for exploration

    Wanderer Bennet Zhongli YunJin being the most damage
