How to play Venti
A vacuum cleaner that does the housework
Venti is an excellent support in addition to doing good damage. He can attack from a distance with his bow and "Sonnet of the Celestial Winds" or even reposition himself comfortably by remaining supported on this last skill by attacking all the enemies around him. However, the most useful is undeniably his Ode to the Wind which allows you to pack enemies to hit them all at once with another character and add an elemental effect in the cyclone.
Thanks to the elemental recharge, he can also relaunch his skills in a very short period of time (so much so that TdR sometimes does not follow). Be careful though because despite its tremendous mobility, it becomes quite fragile when tackling high-level content. So stay at a safe distance when using it, especially in co-op.
That Plane For Me
Venti is also a great exploration character as he can hover longer but most interesting is his โSonnet of the Celestial Windsโ skill which makes climbing much easier in many situations.
