A Forest Watcher on profile in Gandharva Ville. Despite his intelligence, he prefers to live a solitary life in the depths of Avidya Forest rather than in the ivory tower of Sumeru Akademiya.

3.Dendro Reaction Build: Gilded Dreams
Gilded Dreams is an Artifact Set obtained from Spire of Solitary Enlightenment.

This build excels in:
- The Gilded Dreams artifact set is a very good alternative if you neither have a good Deepwood nor Wanderer's artifact set yet.
- This build will heavily rely on how well you can trigger Elemental Reactions with Tighnari to perform well.

- For Tighnari, this set will increase Elemental Reactions and his attacks, so he’s a perfect DPS with this one and a perfect support.
