Anemo is one of the two initial Elements you can choose for your Traveler when you first start Genshin Impact. With only seven Anemo-users in the game, making your Traveler this Element can be a smart decision because it may be a while before you acquire another user for your party.

The Anemo Traveler is also the strongest version (arguably) because their damage is already high. They can create Resonance with all of the other Elemental users you place on their team as well. They're ideal for support within your party, or even as sub-DPS, mainly for their Swirl abilities.

10 The Skyrider Sword - Three Stars

You can get the Skyrider Sword two ways: either in the Wishes or by talking to an NPC in Liyue named Pan Guan'er. Regardless of how you get it, once on the Traveler, it boosts Base Attack between 38 and 354, depending on their level. It also has a substat of Energy Recharge, which increases the recharge between 11.3 and 51.7 percent.

When you use your Traveler's Elemental Burst, they'll gain a 12 percent increase to their Attack and Movement Speed for 15 seconds each.

9 The Fillet Blade - Three Stars

With this sword, the Traveler's Elemental Skill damage will increase by 16 percent, and their Skill's Crit Rate by six percent. Since The Traveler has strong damage stats, to begin with, this only adds to their power.
