Back to All Characters
Upgrading the Traveler's talents in Genshin Impact is unique. Unlike most characters, Aether and Lumine require different materials for each elemental resonance, varying even across talent levels. This guide details the materials needed for each element. This will be updated as new elements become available. Note that ascension material lists are separate due to the Traveler's multi-elemental nature. To view the Traveler's ascension materials, click here.
