Tighnari is a 5-starGenshin Impactcharacter that wields a bow. He was released as the first premium Dendro character, along with the Land of Wisdom, Sumeru, itself. Beside him, the long-awaitedGenshin Impactcharacter, Collei, also comes as another bow-wielding Dendro unit. Collei was first introduced in the manga, with Amber helping her in Mondstadt. Unlike Tighnari, Collei is 4-star in rarity.

As usual,the 5-starGenshin Impactcharacteris released along with his best-in-slot weapon. But, other than that, here are a few alternatives for Tighnari’s best weapons inGenshin Impact.

8Prototype Crescent

For enemies that have a weak point,Prototype Crescentis one ofthe best F2P options for Tighnari inGenshin Impact.This bow can be forged by the blacksmith, so it is rather easy to maximize its refinement. The only downside is that this weapon will completely lose its passive if the enemy doesn’t have a weak point or if players are unable to hit it.

7Windblume Ode

Thanks to its Elemental Mastery passive, Windblume Ode is also one of the best F2P options for Tighnari inGenshin Impact. This weapon is obtainable from the Windblume Festival on version 1.4. Unfortunately, if Travelers missed the event, then thisGenshin Impactbowis not an option. In that case, F2P players can use other bows likeBlackcliff Warbow,Prototype Crescent,Slingshot, andHamayumi.

6Amos' Bow

While Amos’ Bow may seem promising for Tighnari inGenshin Impact, the weapon isn’t really suitable for hisquick-swap sub-DPS playstyle. Furthermore, the Forest Watcher doesn’t benefit too much from the bow’s ATK secondary stat.

5Skyward Harp

Unlike Amos’ Bow which only enhances Normal and Charged Attack,Skyward Harp’sCrit DMG bonus will boost Tighnari’s entire kit. He can also trigger the bow’s DMG passive easily, which deals small Physical DMG every now and then.

4Thundering Pulse

SinceTighnariwon’t benefit from the Normal Attack DMG buff,Thundering Pulse inGenshin Impactexists only as a stat stick for Tighnari. It performs better than Skyward Harp because the Forest Watcher should use an Elemental Mastery Timepiece (so Skyward Harp’s large base ATK is less useful), but, if Travelers do decide to use ATK, then Skyward Harp will be better.

3Polar Star

Polar Staris almost perfect for Tighnari, as the Forest Watcher can easily gain three stacks forthe weapon’s passive inGenshin Impact. The fourth one is also easily obtainable, but it may be a little awkward as shooting Normal Attack is not a part of his rotation. If four stacks are present every time, Polar Star competes head-to-head withAqua Simulacra.

2Aqua Simulacra

RELATED:Genshin Impact: The Best Builds For Shenhe

It’s no surprise that Aqua Simulacra earned its reputation as “theStaff of Homaof bows.” This weapon has tremendous versatility that allows it to work on practically any DMG dealer. For Tighnari,Aqua Simulacra is a greatGenshin Impactbowfor many reasons:

1Hunter’s Path

Hunter’s Path isthe best weapon for Tighnari inGenshin Impact.It has a low base ATK, but a massive Crit Rate sub-stat in return. Considering Tighnari doesn’t really rely on ATK, both parts of the weapon work in his favor.

One thing players may want to understand is that the 160% DMG bonus provided by Hunter’s Path is a flat DMG bonus that works similarly to Yun Jin’s and Shenhe’s DMG buff, so it shouldn’t be misunderstood as a normal DMG bonus.
