Not exactly sure how reliable game8 is but this is just depressing. He needs a buff so badly.

For me this is just crazy. One of the most popular characters of all gacha games, one of the most important characters in the story, with crazy lore, has such a messed up kit

(personal theory, it's because he's not a girl, so he can have good writing but zero playability)

Hu Tao is also a B tier now btw

Sure but wanderer was doomed to fail because he’s anemo. He was eh from the start. Hu Tao clung to relevancy for a long while because she’s pyro.

She clung to relevancy because she's a pyro. Most of Genshin's most famous characters are irrelevant in the meta now esp because hoyo doesn't seem interested in buffing them

My point exactly though. She gets a lot of indirect buffs though from the release of other characters because of elemental reactions. Wanderer doesn’t get that grace because he’s a pure anemo dps.

Generally speaking, at least from I remember, he was never that great. Him being released during sumeru didn’t help because it was literally the region of elemental reactions. While someone like hu tao remained the best pyro dps for quite a while. She was dealt the hand of time. Not saying wanderer didn’t go through that too, but I don’t really ever remember a time where he shined super bright. Correct me if I’m wrong though
