Tighnari is a 5-star Dendro bow user from Sumeru, serving as the Forest Watcher of Gandharva Ville. Calm, intelligent, and nature-loving, Tighnari uses his charged attacks to deliver rapid, homing Dendro arrows that scale with Elemental Mastery and Dendro DMG Bonus.
The best Tighnari build focuses on CRIT, Dendro DMG, and Elemental Mastery to maximize his Charged Attack combos and reaction potential.
Unlike most bow users, Tighnari excels at on-field quickcharge playstyles, benefiting from short field time, high Dendro uptime, and strong synergy with Aggravate and Hyperbloom teams. His short cooldowns and consistent damage make him a dependable Dendro DPS.
