How to Get the Pyro Traveler in Genshin Impact
At the time of writing this article, you can’t get the Pyro Traveler in Genshin Impactbecause there is something mysterious about Natlan that prevents them from resonating with the Pyro element. This is a big difference from the Traveler’s usual method of simply touching a Statue of Seven and automatically switching to that nation’s element.
While we don’t officially know when, or even if, we’ll be getting the Pyro Traveler, we do have some leaked information on how we might get them in the future. So, if you don’t want to be spoiledstop reading now!

Pyro Traveler Leaks
According to leaker white_fx1 on X, we get the Pyro Traveler at the end of the Archon of Natlan quest when Mavuika gives the Traveler her Gnosis. So the Gnosis activates the Traveler’s Pyro powers, not a Statue of the Seven in Natlan.
This is a fairly significant change to how the Traveler usually obtains his powers, as well as the fate of a nation’s Gnosis, which has always been in the hands of the Fatui at the end of a nation’s Archon quest.

Leaker white_fx1 also provided additional information on the Pyro Traveler’s kit, claiming that it is the “Mini Bennett”. Since Bennett is both a healer and an attack buffer with the Pyro element, this implies that the Pyro Traveler could also adopt these traits into his kit. Which would be a huge help for those who don’t have Bennett yet, or want an incredible healer and Pyro buffer on two teams.
We’re inclined to believe the leak, as white_fx1 has a good track record when it comes to Genshin intelligence, but keep in mind that this isn’t official information, and even if it’s true now, everything could change between now and the Pyro Traveler’s release.
Hope you’re enjoying Natlan so far!
