What Are Blizzard Strayer and Wanderer’s Troupe in Genshin Impact?

What are artifacts? Artifact sets provide your character additional bonuses depending on how many sets you have equipped for that character. You can use Artifacts on characters with specific weapons or elements.

Ganyu in Genshin Impact is a playable character in Genshin Impact that is half-qilin, her weapon of choice is a Bow, and her element is Cryo (Ice). She has a very high DPS and large AoE attacks, and her attacks also allow her to use a taunt ability. You should use 4-Piece Bonuses for Ganyu to effectively boost her abilities.

All characters in Genshin Impact will have five slots for Artifacts; each of which will have different categories and provide you with different effects. They are categorized as: Flower of Life, PLume of Death, Sands of Eon, Goblet of Eonothem, and Circlet of Logos.

The Artifacts will also have various kinds of rarities, which will range from one to five. In addition, all artifacts will have 2-Piece or 4-Piece Bonuses, each with its own abilities.

The Blizzard Strayer is also known as Icebreaker, and this is a 4-Star and 5-Star rarity. You must go to the domain Peak of Vindagnyr to obtain this Artifact. But first, you must complete the World Quest “In the Mountains”; after that, you can locate the entrance on the Dragonspine’s peak.

Below we have indicated all of Blizzard Strayer’s abilities in Genshin Impact:

Flower of Life: Snowswept Memory

Plume of Death: Icebreaker’s Resolve

Sands of Eon: Frozen Homeland’s Demise

Goblet of Eonothem: Frost-Weaved Dignity

Circlet of Logos: Broken Rime’s Echo

The 4-Piece Bonus for Blizzard Strayer is that when you attack your opponent affected with Cryo (Ice), your CRIT Rate is increased by 20%, and if your opponent is frozen, the CRIT Rate will be increased by an additional 20%. This works in favor of Ganyu because her elemental attacks are all Cryo-based, giving each attack an advantage.

Wanderer’s Troupe Abilities in Genshin Impact

You can get the Wanderer’s Troupe at 4-Star to 5-Star rarities; you can obtain this item by defeating various Bosses at World Level 2. The Wanderer’s Troupe is best used on characters with weapons like Bows, which will benefit Ganyu, but only when she uses a charged attack.

Below we have indicated all of the Wanderer’s Troupe abilities in Genshin Impact:

Flower of Life: Troupe’s Dawnlight

Plume of Death: Bard’s Arrow Feather

Sands of Eon: Concert’s Final Hour

Goblet of Eonothem: Wanderer’s String-Kettle

Circlet of Logos: Conductor’s Top Hat

The 4-Piece Bonus for the Wanderer’s Troupe is that you can increase a Charged Attack DMG by 35% if the character uses a Catalyst or Bow. This will benefit Ganyu as she has charged attacks and uses a Bow as her primary weapon.

However, it’s clear to see that Blizzard Strayer is more beneficial. Not only does it increase all of her Cryo attacks, but it also complements all of her abilities. Blizzard Strayer will also work much in her favor because it allows you to stack more CRIT damage; if you ascend Ganyu, these stats can also increase.
