Genshin Impact: Venti guide — Best weapons, artifacts, talents

Talents priority: Wind’s Grand Ode -> Normal Attack (Divine Marksmanship)/Skyward Sonnet

Venti’s primary use in your Genshin Impact roster is to open up engagements especially in the Spiral Abyss dungeon.

As such, it’s imperative that Venti pops his elemental burst (Wind’s Grand Ode) to gather lots of mobs. This is followed by an additional chain reaction from your other characters. Because of this, leveling up Wind’s Grand Ode is a priority. Indeed, I personally don’t think you should even bother wasting talent leveling materials on his normal attack and elemental skill since his ult is where it’s at.

As for Venti’s Constellations, I must admit that I really haven’t seen much use out of “Splitting Gales” (Constellation #1) since it relies on aimed shots. The next few Constellations, however, greatly increase the capabilities of Venti’s Anemo damage. Sadly, you have to be very lucky with your gacha pulls to acquire duplicates of him.

Note: Get “Ballad” items from the Forsaken Rift domain every Wednesday and Saturday for Venti’s talent leveling material.

Anyway, the next part of our guide talks about Venti’s character ascension materials.
