Traveler (Dendro)
Dendro Traveler is a powerful RES shredder for reaction teams like Aggravate or Hyperbloom, and since it's essentially free, it's worth building early. Prioritize Energy Recharge to keep Burst uptime consistent — the craftable Favonius Sword is enough if you don't have a 5-star. 4pc Deepwood Memories is the safest pick for any team. Not impressive on its own, but paired with the right team it noticeably boosts the whole squad's damage.
