Since Zhongli and Neuvillette will be featured on the Event Wishes in the upcoming update, Travelers can also look forward to seeing their signature weapons on the weapon banner for a limited time. Tome of the Eternal Flow is an amazing weapon for the Iudex of Fontaine and a great stat stick in general.

Vortex Vanquisher is also a pretty good stat stick and can be a good option on some characters like Shenhe and Xiao, but isn't usually recommended because there are other better and more affordable options available.
