The Dendro reaction "Aggravate" is a powerful tool in Genshin Impact, and understanding how it affects elemental damage scaling is key to maximizing your DPS. Here’s a breakdown:
The Basics of Aggravate
Aggravate happens when an Electro character attacks an enemy that has been affected by Dendro. It’s a quick burst of damage that scales off the Electro character’s Electro damage bonus. This means the higher their Electro damage bonus, the more powerful the Aggravate reaction will be.
Scaling Factors
-
Electro Damage Bonus: The main factor that determines the damage of Aggravate is the Electro character’s Electro damage bonus. This includes any bonuses from artifacts, weapons, and character abilities. The higher the bonus, the bigger the damage.
-
Elemental Mastery: Electro Mastery plays a smaller role in Aggravate. It affects the damage output, but its influence is less significant compared to the Electro damage bonus.
The Importance of Team Building
For maximum Aggravate damage, your team needs to be built around it. Here are some key points:
-
Electro Character: Choose an Electro character with high Electro damage bonus. Popular options include Raiden Shogun, Keqing, Fischl, and Yae Miko.
-
Dendro Character: A Dendro character is essential for triggering Aggravate. Currently, the best options are Nahida and Collei.
-
Support Characters: Focus on supporting your Electro and Dendro characters. Consider characters who can provide buffs like increased Elemental Mastery, energy recharge, or healing.
Examples
Let’s illustrate with some examples:
-
Raiden Shogun: She has a high base Electro damage bonus, and her Elemental Burst provides additional Electro damage bonus. Pairing her with a Dendro character like Nahida can lead to massive Aggravate damage.
-
Fischl: Her Oz, a summoned pet, deals consistent Electro damage. Combined with a Dendro character, you can achieve continuous Aggravate reactions, especially with a support character like Sucrose who provides increased Elemental Mastery.
Key Takeaways
Aggravate is a powerful reaction, but it requires specific team building strategies. Maximize your Electro damage bonus, and ensure you have a Dendro character in your team to trigger the reaction. By understanding these elements, you can harness the full potential of Aggravate and deal significant damage in your Genshin Impact battles.
