Is Genshin Impact Traveler a Fraud?

Ойындар

After the recent fight with Arlecchino, I was kind of surprised at how easily she beat the Traveler. So, I decided to reevaluate every single battle from Traveler's past and check their actual power level. Who was helping them and who wasn't, what was the situation at the time, etc. And the results are quite surprising as you can see from the video's title (at least for combat prowess). I hope you enjoy the video :D

    But Traveler is invincible like Zamasu. They just can't defeat others but they cannot die either. That's why no one was able to eliminate them. Sustainer also failed to eliminate them and so just sealed them. Traveler can only be sealed or made unconscious but cannot be eliminated. This is like Mafuba used against Zamasu.

    One of the few "truths" that we were given throughout the game is first spoken by Zhongli, in that we are "witnesses". Furina knows this too - and this would require a book in and by itself. We are not the protagonists of the story of Teyvat, rather we are catalysts: we either set up events, or partake, or we get them unstuck in some moments. We are not supposed to be the "hero" of the story, we're not even out there for that reason. We're a fairly regular someone trapped in a bigger scheme who helps those around him out of goodwill (from the traveler perspective at least, I strongly believe that all of this is guided) so it's only fair that we don't go around mopping the floor with deities, demigods and legendary monsters. We are to "see" what happens, and the Fontaine arc made this particularly explicit. We were to see the prophecy unfold and be countered, that's all.

That's the role he was cast to play - like Furina - and it is my understanding that by the end of the journey we will have accrued enough care for a world technically alien to us that when we get to actually act, we will do so in service of the world, rather than just say "k tnx bye" which could've easily been the case.

    Plus, given the narrative style of Travail, I believe it's possible that the journey is being recounted rather than being presently lived: a FFX scenario if you will, where we re-live what happened and all the things we have witnessed, before going back to a present where our role as "witness" is over, and we finally get to "act", like Dain implied.

Traveler basically stole the credits on most of the fights, and is only good for being a "Vessel" for all this godly powers around it.

I think Arle would've won against the traveler no matter how many elements they used, but making them use more than 1% of their power after which Arle defeats them just as easily would NOT make Arle look weaker. I have the same problem with Raiden killing Signora. Signora was just defeated and forced to transform back by the traveler, Raiden killing Signora in that state only makes her look like an executioner. If that wasn't part of the rules of the duel, I would personally get the impression that Raiden is actually a weakling.

When it comes to any other character they have no problem (like shenhe freezing an entire tidal wave) Its even more evident in the arlecchino boss fight because that simply doesn't look like a traveler thats been through five nations, that acquired 5 elements and has them at their disposal, and that has been in countless life or death fights. He would've still lost cuz rank 4th is crazy, but from the current traveler I expected a better showing.

    (copied from my other comment) even back at the Golden House, if people even tried to remember the dialogue he literally states after we "defeat him" that the foul legacy took a toll on his body and that he "didn't think this through". this is further confirmed by the achievement you get for beating that boss fight which reads "I'll Let You Off... This Time", I don't think the traveler would be the one saying that, right? maybe back then the traveler did indeed match his vision form. but as you can see in the first cutscene as soon as he switched to his delusion we were on the ground... that is until we used elemental powers, but there's no way to know if we would have beaten delusion childe if the fight had continued after that scene, because instead, childe lost his cool and activated his foul legacy which is probably the reason he lost the fight, ironically, for the reasons I stated above. I feel like the only people who remember these details are people who actually like the character such as myself, while other people have many misconceptions about him.

    As for the La Signora fight, I personally believe that though she had the strength of the 8th position when appointed, she gradually lost a lot of fighting strength due to her Cryo Delusion and the Crimson Flame eating away at her. Also makes sense that her title is "The Crimson Witch of Embers" as she is not the "The Crimson Witch of Flames" she once was. Maybe also why she had resorted to diplomacy over violence throughout the Prologue & Acts: 1 & 2 of the Archon Quests. Side note: The Traveler has simply acted as a catalyst for the main plot events and fights through which much more powerful entities can take action and by themselves, they simply aren't that powerful.

    Yeah that's one thing a lot of people don't realize; Signora was once known as the "Crimson Witch of Flames" and is now known as the "Crimson Witch of Embers", implying that her flames are no where near as destructive as it used to be. It's also worth mentioning that her boss-drop item description states that "her flames turned to embers over the years" or something; I'm pretty sure this is the game saying that she became a lot weaker from the time she was appointed

Genshin makes shittons of cash. So so much money. People will pay just as much even if Traveler even approaches meta. There's various parts of Genshin Impact that I have to just shake my head at why they do it when the same money will come in regardless. There's no excuse for Hydro Traveler, just zero.

Yet their portrayal of them is like the opposite. I'm not even going to insert the Hexenzirkle into this. Who knows what they make of them. Maybe the Archons are only alive because Alice is on vacation. Maybe the Sovereigns lost because Surtalogi was taking a nap or something lol. I just hope to see more consistency in this regard.

    The way how I see it Childe is always improving so it stands to reason he could have passed Signora in power who is long dead. Plus he spent at least 40 days fighting that whale and survived to tell the tale. Traveller however has shown no such dedication to get stronger and just half heartedly moves between the regions collecting elements like pokemon and doing nothing to practice them. Like come on Nahida tells you the top 3 of an antagonist organization you keep fighting are god tier and number 2 already knocked you out by just being in the room. You think you can get away with no training? In fact, Childe even scratched Neuvillette to show how much he has grown, meanwhile Traveller can't even move against Arlecchino.

    Interesting how the video failed to mention that the reason the traveler was knocked out in Fontaine was due to a heightened hydro sensitivity caused by drinking water of the primordial sea that was intended to dissolve Navia, which allowed the Oceanid in the fountain to basically mindnap them. Mind you this water wasn't the impure stuff in the Sinthe Vasher was distributing, but the unadulterated stuff added to a beverage with the intent to silence someone permanently. In Sumaru, it was probably from it being their first exposure to the incense, and partially from Rukkadavata reaching out. I'm pretty sure it would be normal to have an intense trip when exposed to a new psychedelic drug for the first time and I'm sure it was not a small amount either seeing as that researcher had been using it meditate for a while and people tend to build up tolerances to drugs over time and thus needing higher doses to achieve the same effect. As for the memory clone of Scara's mech, that was a surprise attack from an enemy that the traveler has already defeated, who's pilot was standing in front of them. So it's bull that they used the traveler being supprised by the laser attack as evidence. Dottore is also a different matter, he is literally an evil scientist who has gone through great lengths to research the human body, and exploited a weakness that most flesh and blood creatures have, sound waves, specifically frequencies out of a typical person's range of hearing. He also did this out of the blue when the traveler had just finished fighting Scara and had let down their guard. Most of the things the video shows as signs of the traveler being weak would also affect most of the other characters just as badly if not worse (as with Fontaine characters and the primordial seawater). While I agree that the traveler is, as they are now, is not overpowering god level threats on their own, heck most of the Fatui Harpenders could take them out, the OP seems to be conveniently ignoring aspects of the story where the traveler can actually stand on their own against strong opponents. Not sure if it is just because they didn't look deep enough into the lore and story of the game, or they just enjoy bashing the traveler. Personally I clicked on the video expecting actual observations and keen insight into why they think the traveler is a fraud, but was highly disappointed by this surface level observations and shallow reasoning. Can't believe KZread recommended this to me after a Game Theory video, the difference in quality is jarring. I've seen other genshin theories from other creators and at least when they question the traveler's power level they use actually evidence other than complaining about how many times the traveler has gotten help or passed out after literally being poisoned or drugged. As the gen alphas say, you ain't cooking, get your shallow skibidi fanum taxed gyat over to some real genshin theorists and learn something from them about critical thinking before your next post. Best wishes.

    One correction is that its pretty odd to assume that Childe is the same level of power he was in Liyue. Dude trains and gets stronger constantly. So its more than likely he has surpassed Signora in power at this point which isn't hard to assume seeing as, well....she's dead.

    even in Liyue, if people even tried to remember the dialogue he literally states after we "defeat him" that the foul legacy took a toll and his body and that he "didn't think this through". this is further confirmed by the achievement you get for beating that boss fight which reads "I'll Let You Off... This Time", I don't think the traveler would be the one saying that, right? maybe back then the traveler did indeed match his vision form. but as you can see in the first cutscene as soon as he switched to his delusion we were on the ground... that is until we used elemental powers, but there's no way to know if we would have beaten delusion childe if the fight had continued after that scene, because instead, childe lost his cool and activated his foul legacy which is probably the reason he lost the fight, ironically, for the reasons I stated above. I feel like the only people who remember these details are people who actually like the character such as myself, while other people have many misconceptions about him.

Not like that really matters to the Signora point. For me, we surpassed Liyue Childe (Foul Legacy Included) by Inazuma, but as of Fontaine, Foul Legacy Childe seems to be above us.

    The story is definitely flawed, the traveller is able to jump great distances and great heights and at the same time too slow to escape out of a dungeon swallowed by a desert. Stories are sometimes flawed to invoke emotions, there may exist irregularities. But few things are certain - Traveller is strong from strength perspective. And he is regaining his strength or using the elements to fill the void. He maybe affect or void of capabilities that seem common for people in tevat. Also last but not the least, he has immense conviction and bravery. He has no fear and always the first to fight.

That being said, the cut scene where Arlecchino said "Still...not strong enough to beat me" might suggests that she is expecting the Traveller to get stronger at some point during his journey? Also, from my perspective, the Traveller is more of a "catalyst" to the natives of Teyvat to defeat their enemies rather than just naturally powerful.

    It's impressive that the same company that has Kiana Kaslana, is the one that has the Traveler, because the difference in how they write their protagonists is so huge! The Traveler to me at this point is just...a plot device, not even a character, and I really liked them a lot in the beginning. Compared to Kiana and even the Trailblazer (even the other protagonists from the other Hoyo games) they just flop. The Kiana from the beginning of HI3 is very different from the one in the middle, who is different from the one in the end of part 1. We see her change, grow, cry, grieve, fight tooth and nail to protect her friends, get stronger , get new powers and even sacrifice herself. Kiana chooses things by herself and death affects her to the end. From Herrscher of the Void, to Flamescion to Herrscher of Finality. The Traveler doesn't change, even after all their battles and adventures they're still static, the same. Most experiences of the past ventures don't follow through in the ''character's'' mind unless it's very convenient, the few deaths we have, not even Signora's, don't stick to their mind or change them or develop them much. It's like they're a blank sheet at the beginning of every nation. All that happens in one nation stays in said nation, until it's convenient for the Traveler or Paimon to remember it happened. Most of the time, the Traveler doesn't act because they want to, but because someone asks them to, or Paimon just pushes them into doing it. ''Right Traveler?''. And that's when they're not being inconsistent or annoying, like in the Furina quest. I can't believe that the Traveler who saw all of Furina's struggles and pains is the same one in the quest. Even in their objective of finding their sibling, is something that's only brought up once or twice in the Archon Quests, so we can remember that it's what they actually want. Because it really doesn't seem like they want that, most of the time they seem to forget their sibling and we spend another year without them ever mentioning the other. They have 5 elements at their disposal, but they never use it in battle. They could be a Avatar-like character, causing multiple reactions at a time and make battles super dynamic but they don't. It's just wasted potential at this point. The Traveler doesn't need to be overpowered and can still lose, but them not using all the experience they have is just weird.

While humans may view eternity as an endless continuation of life, she sees it as the absence of change and suffering. Her pursuit of eternity is driven by a desire to end the cycle of suffering caused by the constant conflict over visions. She cares for her people: Despite her seemingly cold and ruthless demeanor, the Raiden Shogun cares deeply for the people of Inazuma. She believes that by ending the era of the Vision Bearers, she can create a more stable and prosperous society for her people. Her actions, however extreme, are driven by a desire to protect her nation from internal and external threats. Questionable means for a noble end: While her methods may be questionable, the Raiden Shogun genuinely believes that she is acting in the best interests of her people. From her perspective, sacrificing individual freedoms and collecting all the visions are necessary steps to achieve her vision of a world without suffering. Loneliness and isolation: Despite her power and authority, the Raiden Shogun is deeply lonely and isolated. She carries the burden of leadership alone and struggles with feelings of isolation and detachment from her people. This loneliness has shaped her worldview and contributed to her willingness to make difficult decisions for the greater good. She tried her best all alone for hundreds of years, try to stay alone for 1 weak, and see what happens. On the other hand, Furina is straight-up weak in every freaking aspect. She lacks power, combat skills, mental strength, and even personality. Despite being over 500 years old, she acts like a 14-year-old teenager. Even Fischl is more mature than Furina, lol. Don't get me wrong, I really like Furina, but she hasn't done anything for her people; she's just been crying for 500 years. The real Hydro Archon was the true GOAT. Even after 500 years, Furina couldn't fight Arllechino; she just ran and cried. I like Furina, but unlike Raiden, she didn't even try.

    Firstly, the Traveler's role in "Genshin Impact" is more akin to a player avatar rather than a fully developed character like Kiana. The Traveler is meant to represent the player, which limits the depth of their characterization to allow players to project themselves onto the protagonist. In contrast, Kiana Kaslana is a predefined character with a rich backstory and a predetermined personality, allowing for a more complex and dynamic character arc. Additionally, while the Traveler's objective of finding their sibling may not be explicitly mentioned in every quest, it serves as the driving force behind their journey and is periodically revisited throughout the game. The absence of frequent mentions is likely a deliberate narrative choice to prevent the storyline from becoming repetitive or monotonous. And the Traveler never disrespected Furina; he treated her well. However, Furina is not a saint; she tried to pick a fight with the Traveler straight up when they arrived at Fontaine. Moreover, she tried to falsely accuse an innocent man and put him in jail without any evidence, relying solely on the brute force of her argument. The argument about siblings is laughable. In the quest, when the Traveler finally meets their sibling, the sibling says, "Go and visit all seven nations." Yes, finding the sibling is the initial goal, but afterwards, the goal becomes exploring all seven nations and understanding each of them. While there are five elements, the game states that only one can be used at a time. Claiming that the Traveler doesn't use elemental powers is untrue. There are numerous cutscenes where they use elemental powers. The main power of the Traveler is light, not the seven elements. Without light, the Traveler is better at sword fighting than using elemental energy. Trying to use elemental energy against someone like Arlechinno is ineffective: Geo (throwing a small rock at an elephant), Electro (trying to electrocute a tiger with a 1-volt battery), Hydro (throwing a water balloon at a whale's head), Anemo (blowing air in someone's face), Dendro (throwing seeds at a lion's head). Why would the Traveler use these powers for no reason, only to waste stamina? I can provide at least ten examples of cutscenes where the Traveler uses powers off the top of my head. The Traveler has changed. In Liyue and Mondstadt, the Traveler helped without asking too many questions, showing immature behavior. In Inazuma, the Traveler tried a lot to avoid getting involved on any side and to avoid fighting anyone. In Dendro, the Traveler is much smarter; they think a lot before making decisions and know their role in all of it. So yes, the Traveler is not like Kiana because Kiana is not a self-insert type of protagonist like the Traveler. The Traveler's personality is intentionally bland to make it easier for most players to identify with them. However, over time, the Traveler undergoes more development and matures. In the current state of the game, they show a lot more intelligence than they did at the start. And let me prove this, is dificult to find traveler haters, but kiana haters? lmao everywhere in the comunity.

    Traveler's power level is very inconsistent, but he seems to be getting stronger after unlocking each element. The same way he got buffed, most of his "losses" are related with somekind of debuffs, poisons and as you said, psychological attacks. Childe's position isn't related directly with his power level, but also with the fact he is the last and youngest among them, and he is not much important to the operations in other ways further than fighting. Also, he says in his story quest he got stronger than the day we fought. We must remember he is a teenager yet, he is evolving like us.

    That's right, the only thing thatTraveler has on their favor to "rival the world", is that they aren't chained to "Destiny" (I could even put them in a comparison with Kiana from Honkai; not in power, nor story of course; but in circumstances. Traveler is absolutely out of the story, while Kiana is in a mid-region where she IS and IS NOT Kiana Kaslana; since, biologically, Durandal is Kiana, while Kiana is half Kiana and Half Sirin..... But that's why she could surpass Finality's power and control; I think Traveler is in some kind of similar situation of being a Liminal Entity; he is and isn't part of Teyvat's Destiny/Fortune/Finality at the same time)

Also, it does make sense that one of traveler's greatest strengths, a high afinity for the elements, is also a weakness that can be exploited against them, since that was what happened in Sumeru with the incense and in Fontaine with the oceanid. Still this makes me miss the days of Ho3 where protagonists were allowed to be badass powerhouses. It's hard to believe these stories are written by the same people when the quality differs so much.

    in terms of the harbinger power ranking, i think it's based off of all factors of "power". for example; physically, tartaglia is most likely one of the strongest of the fatui in regards to his raw strength, abyssal powers, and pure fighting capability, but he isn't very smart at all, and he's also still a young human man, hence why he's 11th. pantalone on the other hand might not be nearly as strong physically (he doesnt have a vision *yet*), but his economical influence and intelligence is without question incredibly powerful. in a lot of circumstances, brains is stronger than brawn. those who have leverage on both sides are much higher up. like dottore, who not only is exceptionally intelligent but most likely also physically powerful combat-wise, and arlecchino, who has an entire intelligence network at her fingertips as well as her crimson-moon powers. i seriously cannot wait to see capitano in action.

    Consider this perspective: the traveler is currently operating without their full power. Imagine the immense potential they hold once they regain their complete strength - they would be an unstoppable force. Moreover, there is a possibility that they may engage in battles again in the future. It's essential to recognize that the traveler isn't currently performing at their peak strength. In past encounters, the traveler never utilized multiple elements simultaneously, unlike in the world quest or when facing adversaries like Childe. Therefore, it is evident that the traveler's intention was not solely to emerge victorious; rather, they were simply aiming to leave a lasting impression.

    I agree on that. Despite the trailblazer only being on their journey for 1 year, I can say that they are stronger than the current day traveler. We have seen huge growth in the trailblazer over the past year, and not just in raw power. I remember just how epic it was seeing the trailblazer unlock the powers of preservation for the first time and face Cocolia alone. Them trudging on in the Xianzhou… and now about to get a major power up with the harmony path. Possibly in a more grand and epic way than when they unlocked the preservation And the trailblazer actually uses the new powers they obtain. Like for example in the aventurine fight. I don’t think there was a single scene where traveler used hydro or dendro, and there’s only 2 scenes where they used 2 elements at once

    Considering the sheer number of occasions when Traveler falls unconscious - its not the statement of Traveler being weak, but the direct statement of Traveler relying mostly on sheer physique and swordsmanship instead of elemental powers and non-physical resistances. Which, ultimately, leads to the fact of laziness engulfed hoyo writers, because there is zero other reasons why character whose main power is enormous elemental connectivity would use anything besides such.

    13:33 The reason why Childe seems strong now is because he's been training. He himself has stated that he's much stronger now than in our liyue battle with him. I think he said that in his story quest, so you can only imagine how much stronger he's gotten since then. Also, Signora being a higher rank than Childe doesn't mean she's physically stronger than him. We know that the harbinger ranks are not based on combat ability alone.

What Nahida told us about the Harbingers could be wrong, not fully true, or a bit retconed, remember, even she doesn't know fully of the Harbingers. It could be that even the top 4 harbingers can rival gods. We can only speculate and wait for now.

    I think it was mentioned somewhere that the fatui harbingers are not necessarily ranked according to their strength (how strong they are in fights). I think thats why we beat signora, childe is probably more powerful than her but there are other reasons as to why she was the 8th and not just raw strength. I am pretty sure childe is also stronger than pantalone (the regrator) and maybe also the rooster but the reason why they're higher than childe might be because they have other skills like pantalone and finances and rooster as a political figure. (not sure about the finances part of regrator, correct me if im wrong). Also childe is pretty young compared to the rest so maybe even experience is taken into account.

    Well, Childe always mentions that he is getting stronger since the Golden House duel so it stands to reason that in Fontaine he has surpassed Signora in raw power or skill and he got experience in fighting abyss creatures. Also, Scara being the 6th harbinger is mostly due to how durable he is. So there is a reason to suspect that raw power alone does not define rank. Maybe factors like intelligence (Dotore), cunning (Signora), etc plays a role in rank. Edit: Also one big info missing, in the Alrechinno cutscene we see only the END of the fight, not the entire fight. In Scara boss fight we don't use any elements, not vs the whale, in Signora we get the transition and the end, we only see the results of in-game fights. Chlide is unique in the sense that we get mid-fight reversal, an actual part of the fight in cutscene. Similar when we go banzai on Raiden with electro sword. We get so few fight cutscenes when the "using the elements" is probably meant as in gameplay, you progress the fight in-game and see the result in cutscene (shame we can't switch elements mid fight though). Also, Lyney and crew used 0 vision powers too during the cutscene with only the magic trick

    Traveller is a joke so far because he is lore accurate: Sealed power -> physically weak, lost sword and power, (i think the seal purifical and not the mc) we are in a journey to regain our powers. Decender -> has a strong will to defy the world(sustain, destroy, create, protect) Mc connecting his will to everything like an ai wifi speaker thats why he fainting a lot (and for the plot we are not solving nation problems we helping solving it). As for bossfights: in childe mc was pushed to the point to use the other element, meaning he is holding back. I think there is an unshown cutscene at the signora fight. And Arlecchino was the worst fake fight ever, arle showed the crimson moon just to stop the fight. So what is MC real problems: sealed power, lost sword, lost sibling, amnesia(? plot hole), Unknow world, (annoying emergency food)

    A few notes - the Sword of Narzissenkreuz doesn't actually have any power, it's a conduit for the Traveler's willpower. That is his power as a Descender. Also, Arlecchino used one of her ultimate moves to bring us in the plane of the Crimson Moon, and her eyes hold a power similar to that of Ghost Rider from Marvel. She probably is on par if not more powerful than the other harbingers if she were to use the full powers of her curse, but that will also likely end her after the fight. But yeah, Aether is quite underpowered, hope he will become an actual 5* soon.

And it's funny because 400 years ago Alain was able to defeat Master 1 v 1, without any plot sword, so 5 elements Traveler is actually weaker then just a freaking engineer!

    Regarding the traveller winning against The Crimsom Witch of Flames, I remeber what Pierro said in the fatui cutscene about "Signora's sacrifice" and the chess table, because maybe it indeed was an intentional sacrifice. I guess Signora's defeat changed the traveller's perception against the fatui and boosted his morale, as the traveller was very one sided due to Signora's attitude towards Venti. With her gone, the traveller would be more accesible if the fatui needed a catalyst. We saw the effect of that in the Fontaine archon quest. I also believe Arleccino showed the traveller their position in the power scale on purpose. Maybe this will cause some different decisions on them as well in the future.

    The main problem I have noticed is that everyone expects the Traveler to be extremely powerful due to them being a Descender and the whole "wills that can rival an entire world" debacle. The strength of the Traveler is in their Will, not their Power, and as said by a lot of the comments, the constant victories from the Traveler against the odds of Teyvat has clouded their judgement and self-value, making them cocky and prone to battle. Given that their stories until now really have a focus in the "Power of Friendship", maybe the wake-up call of their battle with Arlecchino will help them understand that, right now, they aren't ready enough to battle against the Tsarista and the main echelons of the Harbingers, and that they need to recover/get new powers/train their current ones to be able to reach the strength to even confront their siblings (they still have their full power, but no the will to rival Teyvat's Laws). I can even bet that when the Traveler get their proper power up to "Archon" levels, we will get a banner for the Stronger version of them.

    Traveler is good at fighting but they’re lacking strength of theirs own. In the world that knowledge and experience is directly linked to strength(Doesn’t sure if this applies to traveller as they’re not native to this world). Traveler who is just a baby(in Teyvat) with 5 elements doesn’t stand any chance against anyone at all. As we can see, the fight against baby god Scara which is made by combining Khaenri primordial human art(Inazuma model) and Dottore’s god imitation using gnosis as a medium to channel energy into Scara, A being who can ascend into god hood. They is no chance we’re going to win against these kind of battle without using THE POWER FROM BEYOND or using massive source of pure leyline energy as a battery. But I still have my hope for traveler cause they seem to be very adept at using external sources of elemental(?) energy though, as in Liyue(Adeptal), Inazuma(Ambitious), Sumeru(Dream),and Fontaine(Authority over water). And it looks like the reason traveler can’t use they power from beyond the stars might be because they lose authority over theirs power as in the sustainer is sustaining. THEORY: As for the Knave I think she has the Fichl all seeing eye 😅 so the fight is just end before it has even start.

They’d rather have him on their side than running loose causing problems, but don’t want to give him too high a rank. They keep him around to use him as a weapon of war because of his immense combat prowess You really mean to tell me you think the banker guy and Rooster could beat Childe in a fight?

    The discrepancy between Signora and Tartaglia is easy to explain, Signora was never trained for combat, since in her story it is mentioned that she was a scholar from Sumeru, who acquired those powers after the death of her lover, but Tartaglia. It is specified that he has never stopped training and in Fontain's arc they even clarify that the reason for the narwhal appearing out of nowhere in the opera was because they were in the middle of a training section, which is why Skirk appears to clarify everything. Now, in the case of Scara... That is indeed a plot hole, because it makes no sense that the robot took us by surprise. As for Arlecchino, the only reason I can think of why we didn't use the other elemental powers was because Lyney and his two brothers were also participating in the fight and fell under the false impression that they could win because it was a 4 vs 1 .
