Charged Attack
Performs a more precise Aimed Shot with increased DMG.
While aiming, the power of Dendro will accumulate on the arrowhead before the arrow is fired. Has different effects based on how long the energy has been charged:
·Charge Level 1: Fires off an arrow carrying the power of flora that deals Dendro DMG.
·Charge Level 2: Fires off a Wreath Arrow that deals Dendro DMG. Upon hit, the Wreath Arrow will create 4 Clusterbloom Arrows that will track nearby opponents automatically and deal Dendro DMG.
Plunging Attack
Fires off a shower of arrows in mid-air before falling and striking the ground, dealing AoE DMG upon impact.

Vijnana-Phala Mine
Additionally, Tighnari gains the Vijnana Suffusion effect, which will decrease the Wreath Arrow's charging time by 2.4s. This effect will dissipate once the skill duration ends or after Tighnari has fired 3 Wreath Arrows.
"If seeds wither apart from the soil, they will remain a single seed. But if returned to the soil, they shall multiply ten-million fold."

Fashioner's Tanglevine Shaft
After they hit, the Tanglevine Shafts will create a secondary wave of Tanglevine Shafts that can also track nearby opponents and deal Dendro DMG on hit.

Character Guide • Build: Tighnari | Update Date: 09/09/2022 | Editor: Luno#1337
• Best Weapon(s):
Tighnari's signature weapon and his Best-in-Slot when opting to focus on his personal damage. Do note that an EM sands is more preferred over an ATK% sands as it synergies well with the weapon passive.
Elegy for the End
Very capable weapon on Tighnari — especially in scenarios where he requires relatively high Energy Recharge to burst consistently — since the buffs supplied is actually significant on him. Moreover, the buff provided by the weapon's passive also strengthens teammates, conferring more value to the weapon.
• Replacement Weapon(s):
Satisfactory weapons that all perform well on Tighnari.
The Stringless is better in situations where he does not utilize his charged shots while Prototype Crescent and Slingshot are better when charged shotting, albeit with conditional passives that want to be proc'd and/ or maintained.
• Best Artifact Set:
When charge shotting on Tighnari, Gilded Dreams and Wanders Troupe perform neaely identical to one another. Thus, it is recommended to run the 4 set with better substats.
• Second Best Artifact Set:
Should his team not have a better 4 Deepwood Memories holder, this set becomes Tighnari Best-in-Slot.

Namecard

Tighnari: Dew-Kissed
Namecard style. Tighnari takes good care of his big, fluffy tail. The essential oil he uses was extracted from flowers and mixed together meticulously. It gives off a faint, calming scent.

Those who travel through Avidya Forest will sometimes meet a rather special Forest Watcher. He has large ears, a long tail, and a slightly delicate face. If a less discerning eye were to appraise him, he might even look like some kind of small, rare animal native to the forests. But anyone who has ever been acquainted with him will know that there is clarity to his words and steadiness in his bearing. "One moment, please. Judging from your equipment, you're a traveling merchant bound for Sumeru City, aren't you? Come back, please, you're going the wrong way." "I mean, just look over there. The leaves are dense and the air grows damper. That doesn't seem like the main road leading to the city, no matter how you slice it." "Oh dear, your waterskin is empty, isn't it?" "Come, let me share some with you. Being in a rainforest is no reason to skimp on your water supply." "If you drink any old water you find out here, you might next find yourself at Bimarstan, you know?" "Of course, if that is part of your itinerary, then I suppose you have... interesting opinions." Amidst the flurry of instructions, the lost lamb will have all the arrangements made for them before they know it. "Um... Thank you so much! Still, uh, might I ask who you are...?" As the other Forest Rangers look upon the traveling merchant bowing to the diminutive Forest Watcher, they cannot help but laugh. "Pfft-haha! Ahem. This is our G— Well, Forest Watcher Tighnari."
Hi there. I'm Tighnari, Forest Watcher of the Avidya Forest. My duty is to preserve both the rainforest's ecosystem and the safety of its visitors. If this is your first time here, I suggest you first peruse the Avidya Forest Survival Guide, paying particular attention to the chapter "Distinguishing Between Edible and Poisonous Mushrooms."
