Elemental Mastery and Elemental Reactions are mechanics unique to\u00a0Genshin Impact<\/em><\/strong>. While some players may not find it as valuable as other stats like Attack or Critical Rate, building the Elemental Mastery attribute on the right characters can result in excellent team composition and high damage output.<\/p>\n

Genshin Impact\u00a0<\/em>introduced a mechanic called Elemental Reactions<\/a> that play off each character’s Elemental Vision. These reactions include Vaporize, Melt, Overload, Superconduct, Frozen, Electro-charged, Burning, Shattered, Swirl, and Crystallize. Currently, the only Elemental Reaction with Dendro is Burning by applying Pyro to Dendro-type enemies and obstacles. Playable Dendro characters haven’t yet been introduced to\u00a0Genshin Impact<\/em> and it’s unclear whether or not more Dendro Reactions will come later on. When comparing to Anemo and Geo, the only Reactions they have are Swirl and Crystallize, respectively.<\/p>\n

The Elemental Mastery stat determines how much damage will come out of an Elemental Reaction based on the character who triggers the reaction. Each Elemental combination has specific Reactions that attacks can result in. For example, hitting an enemy with electricity while they have the wet effect applied will simply increase Electro’s damage over time (DoT). And any order of combining Pyro with Electro or Electro with Cryo will result in Overloaded or Superconduct, respectively.<\/p>\n

However, some Elemental Reactions take into account which Element was already applied to the enemy and which Element it was then being attacked with. For example, hitting a wet enemy with fire will deal\u00a0150% Pyro Damage with the Vaporize Reaction<\/a>, while hitting an on-fire enemy with water will deal 200% Hydro Damage with Vaporize, so it’s important to which characters are applying the base Elemental Reaction, for example via Area of Effect (AoE) Damage, and who is dealing the reactive Elemental Damage afterward.<\/p>\n

Elemental Mastery can increase that Reaction Damage even further with Artifact sets, but specific\u00a0Genshin Impact\u00a0<\/em>characters excel at conducting Elemental Reactions more than others. Oftentimes characters deemed as “support” can be used well for Elemental Reactions.<\/p>\n

While many characters in\u00a0Genshin Impact<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>can be built flexibly, most have a role that they’re best used for. For example, Diluc, Jean, and Razor are best used\u00a0in the main DPS role while Diona and Bennett are best used as support characters who can deal wide AoE Damage with some added bonuses like shields and healing.<\/p>\n

In this way, Diona could lay down\u00a0Cryo AoE<\/a> before coming in with Razor’s Elemental Skill or Burst; if he has a high Elemental Mastery stat, the Reaction could be critical. Setting off Xiangling’s Elemental Burst or putting down Guoba, then switching to an Anemo character with a high EM stat can deal hefty Swirl DMG. Players can also opt-out of having a “main” DPS and instead briskly switch between characters to get high Reaction Damage, but this tactic may not work as well when teaming up in co-op.<\/p>\n

Some characters are better built for Elemental Mastery effects. For example, Mona’s 1st Constellation<\/a> enhances the effects of Hydro-related Elemental Reactions marginally, and Lisa’s Elemental Mastery stat increases with levels. As a rule of thumb, mages in\u00a0Genshin Impact\u00a0<\/em>are great for the EM stat.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

If the player wants to focus on the Elemental Mastery stat, they should consider farming for Artifacts with those substats and bonuses. In terms of matching sets, look for the Instructor’s set and Wanderer’s Troupe<\/a>, which can either be used for 4-piece or combined for 2-piece set effectiveness.<\/p>\n

An Elemental Mastery weapon is supplemental to the Artifact sets, but can still be very beneficial. Mappa Mare is a catalyst<\/a> that works excellently for any mage in\u00a0Genshin Impact<\/em> by granting a bonus (scaling with refinement) to Elemental Damage, and it can be crafted at the Blacksmith’s.<\/p>\n

Genshin Impact<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0is available now on the App Store, Google Play, PC, and PS4, and is currently in development for PS5 and Switch.<\/p>\n
