Diluc’s burst, "Dawn", is a powerful attack that deals Pyro damage to enemies in a large area around him. This burst also has a special effect: it increases Diluc’s Pyro damage by a significant amount for a short period of time. This buff makes Diluc hit harder and deal more damage.
Now, let’s talk about Cryo resonance. This is a team bonus you get when you have at least two Cryo characters in your party. Cryo resonance grants a 15% Cryo damage bonus to everyone on your team.
So, how does Diluc’s burst interact with Cryo resonance? It’s a bit tricky but here’s the breakdown:
Cryo resonance doesn’t directly affect Diluc’s burst damage. This is because his burst is a Pyro attack, and Cryo resonance boosts Cryo damage. This means that even with Cryo resonance active, Diluc’s burst will not benefit from the extra Cryo damage boost.
However, Cryo resonance does have a big impact on Diluc in other ways:
- Increased Cryo damage: When you use a Cryo character to attack an enemy, and Diluc uses his burst on the same enemy, the Cryo resonance will increase the Cryo damage done to that enemy. This is important because it helps melt the enemy’s defenses, making them more vulnerable to Diluc’s Pyro attacks.
- Melt Reactions: Cryo resonance can help you trigger Melt reactions more effectively. Melt happens when you apply Pyro to an enemy that’s already frozen or affected by Cryo. This reaction deals extra Pyro damage, making your Cryo character’s attacks even stronger and allowing Diluc to deal even more damage with his burst.
Here’s a simple example to show you how it works:
- You have a Cryo character, like Ganyu, and Diluc in your party.
- Ganyu uses her Cryo attacks to freeze an enemy.
- Diluc uses his burst on the frozen enemy, triggering a Melt reaction. The Melt reaction deals extra damage due to Cryo resonance, making your Cryo attacks even stronger.
- Diluc’s burst deals even more Pyro damage, because the enemy is now more vulnerable due to the Melt reaction.
In short, while Cryo resonance doesn’t directly boost Diluc’s burst damage, it still makes him a more effective character. It helps you melt enemies’ defenses, making them easier to take down. This in turn allows Diluc to deal more damage with his burst and dominate the battlefield!
