Detailed guide to Geo Traveler in Genshin impact with the nuances of choosing weapons, artifacts and squad members.
Traveler in Genshin Impact - base ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ character, which is available to the player from the very start of the game, and his Geo version is unlocked by interacting with the statue of the Archons in the Li Yue region. This is the main character around which the story of the game is told. From the very beginning, you can choose between two characters - brother and sister, Iter and Lumin, respectively. And it depends only on the player's choice which of them will become the Traveler, and who will be the target of the search for the main character.
Geo Traveler is the second available protagonist specialization after Anemo. The character will come in handy when exploring the world and solving many puzzles of the Li Yue region. It can also be quite useful in combat, but its effectiveness is highly dependent on the specific situation and the player's strategy.
How to get Geo Traveler in Genshin Impact
The player chooses the Traveler at the start of the game, and Geo specialization can be obtained by arriving in the Li Yue region and visiting the statue of the Archon there. All constellations of each of the elemental versions of the character are unlocked as the story progresses.
Geo Traveler Abilities
The hero's Geo specialization skills are focused on creating geo-constructs that will help you climb obstacles, solve puzzles, and even block enemies and their attacks.
Basic skills (active skills)
- Foreign Stone Sword (Normal/Charged/Drop Attack)
Despite the different name, the skill is absolutely the same as that of the anemo specialization - with normal attacks it inflicts up to 5 blows with a sword, and with charged attacks it performs a double blow.
The disadvantage is the same - too little damage. It's better to give this role to someone like Kayi. A significant enough minus to prevent the protagonist from taking the role of a full-fledged main DD.
- Starfall Sword (Elemental Skill)
Summons a comet that deals geo damage to nearby enemies and is a climbable geo construct. While holding the skill button, you can choose the place where the comet will fall.
The damage is very good. Download if you need damage from this skill and from the character as a whole.
- Earth movement (elemental explosion)
Causes an earthquake that pushes enemies back and deals geo damage with a shockwave. Geo-constructions will be created along its edges, preventing movement and projectiles.
The damage in the description is quite small as for the ult, but in fact it is applied several times (but this is not in the description).
Passive skills
Talent | When does it open | What gives |
---|---|---|
Ruined cliff | 2nd Ascension Phase | Increases the cooldown of an elemental skill by 2 seconds. A useful passive, although it looks like a fix for the developers' crutches. |
Crazy Landslide | 4nd Ascension Phase | The fifth hit in a combo of normal attacks deals an additional 60% geo-damage to surrounding enemies. As in the case of the anemo specialization, the low damage of normal attacks does not compensate in any way. |
Constellations
number | Name | <font><font>Materials</font></font> |
---|---|---|
1 | impregnable wall | Inside the walls created by the explosion of the elements, all characters will receive a promotion Chance of Crete by 10% and stability. |
2 | Melting the stone core | After the destruction of the comet, it deals damage a second time. A good constellation... would be... but there's no easy way to destroy a comet. |
3 | stone will | Increases elemental explosion level by 3. Max. Lvl: 15 |
4 | Reaction Force | Elemental Explosion restores 5 health. energy (max. 25) for each enemy hit. Good constellation. Our elemental explosion is quite useful and we restore almost half of our own charge with it. |
5 | meteor strike | Increases elemental skill level by 3. Max. Lvl: 15 |
6 | imperishable stone | Increases the duration of all geo-constructions created by the traveler (walls by 5s, comets by 10s). |
Advantages and disadvantages of Geo Traveler
Geo Traveler - great explorer, good damage dealer and quite an interesting support character.
Consider positive side of the hero:
- high elemental skill damage;
- fast rollback of elemental skill;
- can overcome obstacles;
- can activate puzzles with pressure plates and a geo element;
- has a rare buff to crit chance (only he and
Mike DixonRosary); - can block enemies and their attacks with both an elemental skill and an elemental explosion;
- good power generator.
Expressed shortcomings:
- low auto attack damage;
- comets are too massive and can often interfere not only with enemies, but also with the player;
- there is no way to destroy all the comets at once;
- constant tactical perception of the battlefield is required;
- in between skills is useless, and their quick cooldown turns the game into a piano;
- ult pushes enemies.
The positive aspects of the character are quite good, but his flaws make the game quite difficult and not suitable for beginners.
Leveling Geo Traveler
Let's take a closer look at the properties that can be unlocked for a character while leveling up, as well as the materials and components required during the development process.

Best builds for Geo Traveler
Stats for the Geo Traveler are collected as for a standard dps character:
- Geo Damage Bonus;
- Chance/Crit Strength;
- ATK.
Energy recovery you need so much so that she has time to accumulate before the rollback of the ult, or you can even for 5 seconds. longer (c6). But remember that we are already restoring it very quickly.
Elemental Mastery will make geo shields a little more durable, but they are more useful in their numbers than in strength. There is little point in collecting this stat.
HP и DEF - do not provide any benefits.
Best weapon
number | Name | Rarity | Base stats | Effects |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Cleaving Mist | ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Basic Attack 48 ~ 674 Crete. damage 9,6% ~ 44,1% | Fills just some sick amount of damage stats. Basic attack! Crit Damage! And in the passive it gives a bonus to all elemental damage immediately and additionally for each charge (max 3). Charges accumulate one for each of the following actions:
|
2 | Desecrated Desire | ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Basic Attack 42 ~ 510 Restore energy 10% ~ 45,9% | Great weapon for geo-gg. The passive increases the damage and crit chance of the elemental skill, despite the fact that this is our main damage. |
3 | Primordial Jade Cutter | ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Basic Attack 44 ~ 542 Crit Chance 9,6% ~ 44,1% | Fits very well on the Geo Traveler. The basic attack is rather weak, but the Crit Chance is enough to use only the Crit Strength in artifacts. Passive adds attack depending on max. xp. |
4 | Amenoma Kageuchi | ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Basic Attack 41 ~ 454 ATK 12% ~ 55,1% | Basic stats are normal. The passive accumulates stacks for using the elemental skill (max. 3), and after using the ult, it regenerates us energy depending on the stacks. |
5 | Montenegrin Longsword | ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Basic Attack 44 ~ 565 Crete. damage 8% ~ 36,8% | Useful and good stats. Passive... passive stacks attack power (up to 3 times) for killing enemies. If there is an opportunity to attack it, then it is in your hands wunderwaffe, otherwise, just a stick with crits. |
6 | Sacrificial Sword | ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Basic Attack 41 ~ 454 Restore energy 13,3% ~ 61,3% | Passive allows you to use two elemental skills in a row. Yes, and the energy with him is restored very well. |
Best Artifacts
number | Name | Set | Rarity | Effects |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Archaic Petra | ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | 2 parts: Increases Geo damage bonus by 15%. 4 parts: Increases the elemental damage bonus of all party members according to the selected geo crystal by 35%. Perhaps this is the best set for geo gg - and we ourselves hit harder and increase the damage of our party members. | |
2 | Gladiator’s Finale/Shimenawa's Memories | ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Of interest is only the bonus from two parts, giving attack power (+18%). Combinable with other sets. | |
3 | Noblesse Oblige | ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | 2 parts: Elemental Explosion Damage +20% 4 parts: After activating the ult, the group gains +20% attack power for 12 seconds. The effect does not stack. In general, a rather dubious set on the protagonist's geo. But his bonuses are not useless. |
2h Archaic Petra + 2x Gladiator’s Finale / 2x Shimenawa's Reminiscence - such a build will give us the maximum damage of our skill.
2h Gladiator’s Finale + 2x Shimenawa's Reminiscence - the option is worse than the previous one, but it also works, increasing all the damage dealt by the hero.
2h Archaic Petra + 2x Noblesse Oblige - This option maximizes the damage of the ult. But the main damage of the Geo Traveler still remains from the elemental skill.
Geo Traveler is perhaps the case when there is simply no perfect damage set for him. The best option would be a hodgepodge from different sets with just perfect stats. At the same time, if you have at least one of the above pairs, then this is only a plus.
Squad Composition
Character | Element | Weapon | Effects |
---|---|---|---|
Zhongli | Geo | A spear | In addition to a powerful shield and reduction in resistances, it opens up an interesting playstyle through the resonance of geo-constructs. |
Noelle | Geo | Two-handed sword | The protagonist just wonderful fills her with energy. Geo resonance to boot. |
Fischl | electro | Bow | Fischl is strong on her own. In any case, it will increase the damage of the group. |
Kujou Sara | electro | Bow | Buffs on attack power. |
Keqing | electro | Sword | Their timings match pretty well. Something like: comet - thunder dagger *2 - infusion over - comet... |
Bennettt | Pyro | Sword | Bennett!!! |
Xiangling | Pyro | A spear | Geo gg for Xiangling is only needed for a buff to crit chance. And it can also give a bonus to pyro damage in the case of an Archaic Petra set. And Xiangling for the protagonist is needed only for the "resonance of geo-constructions" combat style, in other cases he tries to stay away from enemies. |
Diluc | Pyro | Two-handed sword | With the help of two comets, it allows Diluc to play from the blow in the fall. |
Ganyu | Cryo | Bow | The geo protagonist zones the battlefield well for her. In addition, crit gives a chance. |
Kaeya | Cryo | Sword | Another option under "geo-construction resonance" instead of Xiangling. |
Sucrose | Anemo | Catalyst | A cheaper version of Kazuha. |
Kazuha | Anemo | Sword | Ties are always helpful. Especially for the "resonance of geo-constructions". |
Group examples
Character 1 | Character 2 | Character 3 | Character 4 | Features |
---|---|---|---|---|
A group for Diluc to play from a blow in the fall. Kazuha is an anemo support here, and Diona is needed for shields, heal and cryo status. | ||||
Group for Noelle as the main dd. We have two elemental resonances: pyro and geo, painfully hitting Xiangling's ult, a buff for damage from Bennett and a ton of energy from Geo for Noelle. | ||||
A group where everyone but Djinn does a lot of damage. You need to consider what, by whom and when to press ... and do it quickly. | ||||
Group under the resonance of geo-constructions. |
How to play Geo Traveler
Geo Traveler's basic playstyle as a damage dealer is to damage enemies from a distance with his comets. As a support, he needs to give his ult and block enemies with comets. However, the protagonist can perform well both roles at once.
The player needs to watch so as not to block yourself with comets, since characters running near them often try to climb them. You can also block skills like Fischl's Raven Oz - you can't shoot through comets or walls.
The Zhongli column can resonate with other geo-constructs. If you lure enemies between two comets and a column, they will take triple geo damage. Also, each wall of the protagonist's ult counts as a separate geo-construction.
The hero is good solving riddles in Li Yue, since most of them require a geo element. Also a comet is handy activate push switches. And since comets can be attached even to surfaces that are impossible to climb, and comets themselves exist for quite a long time, with the help of them you can reach the most inaccessible places.
Сonclusion
Geo Traveler is an indispensable explorer, good support and damage dealer. However, due to the complexity of the game for him, you should not recommend the hero to beginners.
Read on:We will continue to write detailed builds on all released characters so that you can effectively use them in your squads when conquering the world of Teyvat.
Released from update 4.5, Signa Tiori (Uraku Misugiri) is now the best weapon for Geo GG.
But what about the dissected fate?
Michael Jackson XD
It's time to update the article to take into account the release of the new character Navia, which set should be used on the geo GG if it acts as support for Navia.
You can make an amendment for relevance, at the moment the best set for Eshka will be the golden troupe, I looked through the calculator - with a more or less good build, it wins by 21% over shimenawa + arch stone, but the truth is it loses 16% with the ult
I am very interested in the question and opinions: I have a great desire to collect a mono geo pack, but of all the geos, I do not have only Albedo, whom, unfortunately, I have no desire to beat out yet. Itto dd, grandfather shield, goro sap + a little heal (с5) and while Ningguang stands as a secondary dd, but in fact he just puts a screen for + 12% geo damage for the sake of passive. And now I am tormented by the question - what should I do? Set geo gg, leave Ningguang or mono geo without Albedo in any way ... Although it seems that with Nina my damage is wonderful, but suddenly there is another option ...
gg needs to be constantly on the field due to short kickbacks, and if he can benefit the team, it can only be an ult with c1 and c6, I don’t play geo in batches myself, but Ning Guan as a subdd will be better, I think, at least thanks to the passive
Is it possible to put geo gg in a pack: Itto, Grandfather, Gorou, Albedo instead of the last one?
Yes. GG generates energy well with his skill, and his ult gives an additional crit chance. The only thing you need to shoot with barrels is to shoot in such a way that you don’t block the path to the mobs and that the barrels don’t interfere with you later. In fact, you need to get used to their AoE and throw them behind distant mobs, thereby causing damage and creating spheres and pushing mobs towards you
gg has good damage. as well as physical and ulta and eshka (especially eshka). you just need to upgrade the talent for physical and ult, then here's a good dd for you
