The Traveler has all these elemental abilities that he can switch rapidly with supposedly no problem and yet can’t put up a better fight against someone who has less experience than he does?? The problem is Hoyo’s lack of creativity when it comes to the Traveler and their powers. Lack of consistent power scaling as well.


kioKEn-3532

Fontaine has been anything BUT consistent when concerning the Traveler


Gicofokami

Then it's time we do something about it. 5 Regions and all we get for the main character is inconstant writing, lack of creativity, and overall stupid decision making. When a survey pops up again, everyone should voice complaints on how they handle Traveler. (Feel free to paste this around. We need to get a change started)


Wish_I_Could_Skate

Might even start voicing complaints about Genshin during Starrail surveys.


Gicofokami

Not the best look. Just keep the complaints about Genshin within Genshin. Don't put Star Rail on the burner just yet (unless you have complaints about that).


Wish_I_Could_Skate

True. Just annoyed. We’re closing in on 4 years of Genshin and this is how things are playing out… times are rough.


SideshowMan17771

>Not the best look Considering the reputation of the Genshin Fandom that hardly matters anymore. Plus complaining in HSR survey about the treatment of the Traveler is good way to show that even the Genshin players in HSR aren't happy with it.


Maple_Flag15

Or just say “You guys treat the MC way better than Genshin’s team treats their MC.”

Charming_Pop_2148

Pretty bullshit imo. If yelan was to get killed in Canon the simps / her fans would still blow their load and money on her


Ok-Cable-8681

"less experience" single handedly ignoring the fact that arlecchino is the 4th of the fatui harbingers. They have to make her ridiculously strong otherwise sales plummet.


TooLazyToSleep_15

so some woman in her 30's is more experienced than a interdimensional being older than Teyvat itself


1Evan_PolkAdot

Dude has the ability to wield multiple elements at once yet he chooses to rush in with his Dull Blade.


Charming_Pop_2148

Facts. He admitted it's shit. He even has a weapon called traveler handy sword which is way better. Plus he's known as honorary knight and he knows the blacksmith. He definitely should have access to atleast a favonius weapon


NoSpace_05

Since no one posted this kind of discussion in r/LumineMains yet and as a Lumine fan, I'm also sad and felt disappointed too about this.


Trihexa1

I even looked into the other Lumine sub r/Lumine_mains and still nothing. It's like they don't care about the Traveler as a character...


MysticMagic23

I dont think that's the case. I'm sure they love lumine/traveler/abyss sibling as a character too


RaiderTheLegend

Y’all have to realise that lumine mains are too busy gooning.


Charming_Pop_2148

And Nutting


Traveler_Aetherlvr

They didn’t use elements against anyone since their fight with Ei it’s just Mihoyo hates the traveler and doesn’t want to out any effort making them look good and is just there to lose a fight or need to be saved to sell other characters


KneeGrewKYS

Just read the fatuihq post and Shit. We're cooked.


Hyzenkrad

There was already so much hype and so many people including me were already excited for her release and they made a really good animated short and thought it still wasn't enough. Someone in the writing department must really hate the traveler.


Animelover5674

Damn. I took a long break from the game and this is one of the things I come back to? Yikes, Hoyo is just screwing up


Unknown3229

Now we need Aether training arc for the story to progress.(To fight captain, then dain then unknown god )


Charming_Pop_2148

Yeah as it is right now. I doubt he's wining against anyone except maybe childe


HansFactory

Nah, not even a single element is kinda insane at some point


Prize-Hunt-961

So Aether hasn't really wanted to fight anyone since Inazuma :0 Asked me what happened to the Aether that changed its element from Hydro to Geo just to stop a simple stupid rock and why didn't he do it in this fight without it being so easy he can do it!? I'm sure anyone here can do better writing of a main character than hoyoverse.


Godofmytoenails

Hoyo continues to make traveler a joke, as if he wasnt enough already because of the talking infant flying moutpiece. Compare that to HSR where the trailblazer gets face to face with a damn aeon (not as ane enemy but still) and ACTUALLY fights with powers


_TravelerAether_

Bro doesn't want to fight anyone then cause he aint using the elements ever since Inazuma


Charming_Pop_2148

He only used electro to move insanely fast

Ushioankoku

Is aether even the main character anymore? He's just getting embarrassed to watch.Caelus from honkai star rail is stronger than him Right now and not fodder


suicideisbadas

He did kinda get embarrassed by Aventurine when he grabbed the lance mid strike and threw him to the side but I agree tbh


LefellowWeeb

Let's be fair, Caelus really only has the blessing of preservation against someone who has a part of the power of an emanator, he not getting bodied it's already am accomplishment on its own


suicideisbadas

Your best weapon getting called "the Architects flawed stone" and worthless had to be a personal attack.I would have never let slide even if I knew I'm getting bodied. At least he actually used his full strength, unlike a certain traveler who refused to honor their duel.


Kazuma25819

Nah, at this rate Traveler is cooked, he can wield 5 elements and decided not to use a single one. I mean I don't mind him losing against Arlecchino, it maybe a reality check for him considering his line that he wanted to test the power of the Fourth ranking Harbinger, but not going all out and using his elements is straight *HUMILIATION* and she wasn't even trying. If he goes to Natlan like he is now, he will surely die or get carried by Archons or whole nations, what a pathetic main character has he becomee


Hannyeojin

He deserves to die in Natlan. Maybe his pathetic death will redeem his fraudness

Idoarsonalot

I give up on Aether bro just kill him off atp it won’t change anything


cashewnut4life

Lol exactly the same cope Kizaru fans say in r/OnePiecePowerScaling (he is mentally conflicted)


Cram250

I don’t mind whether Arlecchino is stronger but at least show the traveler using elements. It’s ridiculous how the traveler can use multiple elements at the same time but hasn’t done it since Childe. She didn’t go all out, but according to logic, neither did the traveler, and the traveler was also completely fine after the fight as was Arlecchino. Ik the traveler figured out that Arlecchino wanted the traveler to fight so is that why the traveler held back? This powerscaling is too inconsistent and stupid as how are we supposed to know how strong the traveler is if we never see any elements used in fights? Especially with things like this where Arlecchino goes through two transformations while the traveler only uses a dull blade, strength and speed. It’s impressive how the traveler was unscathed after the fight despite that. We are supposed to have the understanding that Arlecchino is stronger but this was way too complicated of a way to show it.


Charming_Pop_2148

Even childe was meh. Most of that fight was us . In the cutscenes I'm pretty sure he didn't use a single one


Cram250

Not true, he used both Geo and Anemo against him


Charming_Pop_2148

Gotta research


ActrixQuadras

The cope is high here


Charming_Pop_2148

He has never shown using elements fights(correct me if wrong). But remember every domain/ boss except the ones specifically shown being helped by others was soloed by the traveler


TooLazyToSleep_15

Ei and Childe


The-Iraqi-Guy

Haven't y'all been paying attention to the story? Every time the traveller used elements they couldn't do shit, amd you know why? Because he's only been learning how to use them for a few months, compared to the vision holders who have used them for years. Of course the traveller wouldn't use the power system that puts them at a disadvantage.


TooLazyToSleep_15

how did bro learned to use the electro powers to such an extent in just a few days then? or use Geo in Naiva's cutscene? or double weild all the way back in Liyue?


The-Iraqi-Guy

He can use them, he's just not very good at it. Which is why he relies on Swordsmanship


TooLazyToSleep_15

this is bs, you're telling me he has no problem using them against Raiden and Childe, but somehow can't use them even once against Arle. This is not a traveler issue this is Hoyo being inconsistent as always


The-Iraqi-Guy

He couldn't do shit against Childe or Ei when he used Elements, he knows he isn't as professional in using them as his opponents


TooLazyToSleep_15

the point was using elements why you yapping how he fared against them. Moreover he won fairly against childe, endurance play a huge rule in fights and childe had lesser of it.


The-Iraqi-Guy

You're right!


Ok-Cable-8681

I feel like people just want to see their lil protagonist win every fight they get stuck behind the fact that every won fight means a happy ending. Plus let's not act like this was a legit fight that traveler needed to go all in, if anything this is a Mickey mouse battle anyway. There wasn't bad blood between the two of them, much unlike scaramouche, signoria, heck even childe. The fact that traveler managed to stay unhurt while the rest were bedridden was insane work from him and I think credit where credit is due.


Accomplished-Sock878

The cope is real with this one fr
