Okay, let’s break down how Anemo Resonance interacts with Raiden Shogun and her Cryo damage.
Raiden Shogun is all about Electro damage, but here’s the catch: Anemo Resonance doesn’t directly boost Electro damage. Instead, it focuses on something called "Elemental Mastery," which affects how strong your reactions are, especially with Cryo.
Think of Elemental Mastery (EM) like a cooking ingredient that makes your dishes more flavorful. When you mix Cryo and Electro, you get a delicious reaction called Superconduct. This reaction lowers enemy Electro and Physical Resistance, making your team hit harder.
Here’s how Anemo Resonance comes into play:
-
Boosting Elemental Mastery: Anemo Resonance gives your team a big boost to Elemental Mastery. The higher your EM, the stronger your Cryo-based reactions become. This means Superconduct will be even more effective at lowering enemy defenses.
-
Strengthening Superconduct: Superconduct’s strength relies heavily on your team’s combined Elemental Mastery. The higher it is, the more significant the enemy resistance reduction will be. With Anemo Resonance, you’re basically turning up the volume on Superconduct, allowing your team to deal much more damage, especially with Physical attackers.
So how does this help Raiden Shogun?
While Raiden Shogun doesn’t directly benefit from the resistance reduction of Superconduct, she still indirectly gains from it. The reason is that Superconduct makes your entire team, including Raiden Shogun, hit harder.
Since Raiden Shogun is an Electro character, the weakened enemy Electro resistance from Superconduct can be advantageous. This might seem counterintuitive since Superconduct doesn’t directly buff Electro damage. But remember, Superconduct’s main purpose is to decrease enemy resistance, which indirectly helps all your team members, including Raiden Shogun, deal more damage, even with her Electro abilities.
Think of it this way:
- You’re a chef, and your main dish is Raiden Shogun’s Electro attacks.
- Superconduct is a special spice that weakens the enemy’s defenses (like a meat tenderizer).
- Anemo Resonance is another spice that makes that special spice even more potent.
In conclusion:
While Anemo Resonance doesn’t directly increase Raiden Shogun’s Electro damage, it indirectly helps her by making your Superconduct stronger, leading to a more substantial reduction in enemy resistances. This makes your team, including Raiden Shogun, hit harder and clear enemies faster. So, combining Raiden Shogun with Cryo characters and Anemo Resonance can be a very effective strategy for dealing massive damage.
