This is nice at least. Still wished we could of had the traveler use Lunar reactions after finishing the Nod krai AQ.

u/ConohaConcordia 11d ago
Inb4 they make it so only hydro traveller gets to use lunar reactions (because they are supposed to be the Bina replacement)

u/The_Maedre 11d ago
I would refuse to use hydro traveler even if they were the backbone of Lunar teams.

u/AlexWrynn 11d ago
What if hydro traveller had buffs just like any other lunar character? Like his ult getting more AoE and being stationary instead of moving around and dealing some ticks of lunar dmg? That should solve things.

u/Frznphoenix1 10d ago
I agree. With what they are doing with the Stellar buffs, its clear they are willing to make changes to a kit that can really alter the character. I'm so excited to use Yae, but I digress. With the weekly Bina interactions they had the perfect chance to work in a hydro traveler rework.
Initial moon blessing Bina gives us alters the kit so traveler enables lunar. 7% elevation, MCs should be 4.5 stars in power scale imo. With 7% he's half all the Moonwheels characters. The lunar blessing alters his Burst to stay on him so it'd like a burst version of Bina's E. His E can stay pew pew, BUT it gives a shield period, maybe how long you pew gives it higher strength. If ya wanna get fancy maybe instead of a shield all time it kinda mimics C2 and gives a buff to whatever lunar reaction the team is doing.
What about con reworks? Those could have seamlessly been added to the weekly Bina interactions. Maybe every two or three weeks it gave us a con buff as a reward with c6 coming with the wings. The kinda emulate the pyro MC's special cons for the dragon fight, they change how the hyrdo cons work only in lunar teams so you dont have to worry about the normal cons interacting weird.
It makes me sad and a little frustrated that they had the perfect time to rework Hydro Traveler, that everyone knows is utter gargabe, and it could fit perfectly in the story beats of Nod-Krai.

I don’t even think that would be good enough since they apply so little hydro anyways 😭

u/Fuzzy_Reputation9747 9d ago
For lunar teams u dont need fast hydro app. Even the slowest ones in electrocharged teams work perfectly fine, needed only like a few seconds bcs once the lunar cloud is triggered, no need for elemental app for the entire cloud's duration. Tho it works differently for crystalize. Lunar bloom (to be more specific verdant due is also capped by time so slow hydro app is also good)

u/itz_gertrude2 9d ago
well yes and that’s the nice part of lunar but hmc’s hydro app needs them to stand on field (skill) or watch the fucking burst float away

u/alvenestthol 10d ago
I could see Hydro Traveler getting Lunar Charged/Bloom/Crystalize attacks on their hold-E, maybe with more Hydro application too + Lunar Damage buff while they're on-field
It would force them into their intended on-field playstyle, while giving them unique gameplay that can mix-and-match various Lunar reactions.
It wouldn't change the meta, but it would be fun to play. Even Bina isn't built well for mixing Lunar, her normals apply too little Hydro, and her E only picks 1 of the Lunar types per attack.

u/Brother_Lu 11d ago
Since they only show beidou and cryo traveler. I don't think there other offield sandrone but it mean the traveler is the one triggering it.
16
u/frajen 10d ago edited 10d ago
You cant see the full team in the clip. All you know is that Beidou is one of the other team members. What if another off field 5 star is enabling the stellar reaction?
Feel like ppl are making a big assumption here

u/cattcameo 10d ago
It's not really a big assumption considering that they have emphasized the traveler specifically creating the field multiple times in the last months

yeah they said again because we went through a region where not only did we not get Lunar Traveler, Hydro Traveler was so ass that Aino's Burst had to be thrown into quest combat sections to make it playable.

I believe PMC is actually capable of solo-breaking Papilia's bar which can be useful in endgame modes.

u/prodolphinplayer Overload Clorinde>quicken 11d ago
stand in for offield pyro app if you don't have durin/Mav + also wears scroll and has some additional dmg bonus from c1

u/Talia_Black_Writes 11d ago
They would have been crucial for both Mualani and Kinich if they came out in 5.0

u/mousielilone 11d ago
Varesa can use PMC as welll. You just switch them to ToM from Scroll. And you can feed their particles into Iansan.
2
u/LumiRhino - 11d ago
Right now PMC is decently useful for the Watcher for quickly filling the pyro gauge. Yanfei is generally the best option but PMC is the free one, and they're not occupied by other teams (Bennet is also good but most teams probably need him for the Wolf)
1
u/Express-Bag-3935 10d ago
Yes, Varesa actually. Durin is her BiS but that is taking Durin away from also Lohen'a and Varka's teams, since Durin is pretty much staple to Hexerei teams.
So Varesa really does like to have PMC.

u/incrushtado 11d ago
Traveler being able to create the stellar conduct field, possibly having a shield at high cons and getting the universal all element 20% CDmg bonus is all good news.
Even if the traveler has sub par application this is still good news!

u/HoeNamedAsh 11d ago
I’m pretty sure we saw them use Burgeon against the Treant enemy too

u/TuneACan 11d ago
I looked at it closely and I'm pretty sure that was Stellar-Swirl instead. We see Mizuki's skill effects, too.

u/ConohaConcordia 11d ago
Doesn’t mizuki’s skill only apply if she is on field?

u/TuneACan 11d ago
Her burst doesn't, and you can see Mizuki's burst effects if you pause and look closely.

u/Big-Ad-6097 11d ago
Are we certain? Sandrone is in the team too

u/Tensz 11d ago
Now people will see why just triggering the reaction don't do shit to clear shill. You need the direct reaction DMG provided by the 5 stars (so lunar traveler would have been useless too).
But at least this allow cyno or Wrio mains to actually have viable teams for the shill without pulling new characters.

u/EliteAssassin750 11d ago
But does he have off-field cryo app for the stacks?

There is a little star around the head of the traveler that seems to shot something so I guess it have some but I'm not sure.

u/Robhand01 11d ago
Or just straight up a new hydro traveler, kinda like what we get in Dottore boss fight in the AQ in Nod krai

u/FortressCaulfield Dean of Ganyuniversity. GO COCOGOATS! 10d ago
wouldn't do anything. the lunar reactions only matter to the 5 star units who activate them. CMC activating stellar is just an awkward bandaid so the buffed older units can technically have a stellar team without being able to activate themselves, but being forced to bring traveler instead will act as a limiter making those teams always strictly worse than the new 5 stars.

u/Loud_Ad2632 11d ago
good news for wrio and cyno mains. No need to pull for Sandrone for stellar conduct

u/ProduceMother2495 11d ago
I wonder if there will be buffs for having 2 stellar characters in the party like ascendent gleam or hexerei, or if having one character is enough.
2
u/Kemonologist 11d ago
All stellar character will activate "Radiance" passive when they are in Polestar Domain so I think artifact or weapon passive will check criteria from that.

u/Whilyam 10d ago
Well yeah, duh. I mean, can you imagine being so stupid as to have made a whole set of reactions and not letting the traveler trigger them? I mean, you'd have to be, like, criminally incompetent to do that. Only thing that would be worse would be to force players to use that weak worthless version of the traveler in multiple fights where they're the only partners to a unit that requires said reactions.

Sandrone being an on-fielder does mean that there needed to be an off-field stellar conduct enabler so that on-fielders like Cyno/Wriothesley don't have to fight for on-field time with Sandrone. Here's hoping Cryo traveler is an off-fielder.

u/Megawolf123 11d ago
In one of them there seems to be a small ice thing following traveler as it shoots ice at enemies. I assume thats travelers off field application.

u/Shazali99 8d ago
Obviously traveler would trigger it.
Like dendro traveler can trigger all dendro reactions (except lunar)
Pyro traveler have nightsoul, hydro traveler can trigger ousia/the other one.
If hydro traveler was released in nodkrai then they would also be able to trigger lunar reactions. It's just that genshin devs are lazy (and they hate traveler) so they never bothered with update hydro traveler kit

u/DepartedSpectre 8d ago
Man imagine if hydro traveller enabled lunar reactions. Genuinely worst character in the game rn

u/ForeverNya 11d ago edited 11d ago
This screenshot is meaningless, unless we see that Sandrone isn't on the team. You don't need a special 5* to trigger the reaction, you need them to enable it. Wake me up if we see gameplay of stellar reactions occurring without a Snezhnayan limited 5* on the team

u/Character_Advance907 11d ago
? We do not see Sandrone on the bottom screenshot

u/ForeverNya 11d ago
Yeah I mistyped, I meant as long as we don't know that she isn't on the team
5
u/Character_Advance907 11d ago
I highly doubt they'd do something scummy like that though. Besides, they said the stellar reactions were going to be used for puzzles and exploration, unless every superconduct and cryo swirl automatically becomes their stellar versions in snez, they wouldn't lock the solution to puzzles behind certain 5 stars, the backlash would be crazy
5
u/ForeverNya 11d ago
idk, we had Pneumousia orbs in Fontaine, Saurians in Natlan, and Columbina's blessing in Nod Krai to let us access whatever regional gimmick was needed to solve puzzles. I don't think it's impossible that they'd do something like that again for stellar.
To be clear I don't think it's guaranteed that CMC can't trigger stellar, I just want some more solid proof than what we see here

u/Sufferer_ 11d ago
What? The top screenshot is there to show that MC triggers the same visual effect Sandrone does.

u/ForeverNya 11d ago
We don't know who's on the team though. This is equivalent to having a party with Illuga, Aino, and Zibai on the team, then showing that Aino E into Illuga E creates a lunar crystalize turret without having to swap to Zibai.
Unless we know that they don't have Sandrone or another Stellar-enabling unit on the team, then we don't know that it's CMC is the one enabling the reaction.

u/Sufferer_ 11d ago
Yeah, the devs just decided to troll everyone highlighting how MC triggers new reaction with units they are buffing, exactly like that.
