Genshin Impact guide: Dendro elemental reactions, Elemental Resonance

Genshin ImpactFinally, the Dendro In its complete form. You don’t have to hunt for Dendro Slimes. Now you can harness the power of Dendro, and take on more Dendro foes. Combining the element with others yields great results, so you’ll want to use those to get an edge as you explore Sumeru.

Our Genshin Impact Dendro explanationer will show you how to use the grassy element at its best and how Dendro elemental reactions works.

How do the Dendro elements react?

Dendro responds to Pyro, Electro and Hydro the following:

• Quicken (Dendro + Electro): When Quickened, Electro attacks activate “Aggravate” and do more damage. Further Dendro attacks to a Quickened enemy activate “Spread,” which increases Dendro damage to the enemy.
• Burning (Dendro + Pyro): You might already know this elemental reaction because it is in the game since its beginning. Burning enemies take Pyro damage over time.
• Bloom (Dendro + Hydro)Bloom can cause Dendro Cores on the ground to drop from the enemy. When Dendro Cores are hit with Pyro, this causes “Burgeon,” which does AoE Dendro damage. When Dendro Cores are hit with Electro, the cores become homing “Sprawling Shots.” Cores left on the ground will explode and do AoE Dendro damage.

All in all, using Electro against Dendro enemies will give you a huge advantage, so it’s time to dust off your Fischl, Beidou, Razer, or other Electro characters.

Dendro: What is it? Elemental Resonance do?

If you have two Dendro-using characters on your team, you will get “Sprawling Greenery.” This makes it so all characters on your team will get their Elemental Mastery boosted by 50. For a brief time, the party will also receive an Elemental Mastery bonus by activating one of the above elemental reactions.

Tighnari (Collei), and Traveler are the only Dendro characters currently in the game. Traveler, Collei and the Traveler can all be used for this powerful Elemental Resonance combo by anyone who is not a paid player.

In future updates, there will be more Dendro characters such as Kusanali.
