The Electro Traveler’s burst, "Thunderclap Flash", is a powerful ability that can have some interesting interactions with Cryo characters. It’s all about how Electro and Cryo elements work together, creating reactions that can boost your damage and control the battlefield.
The Basics:
- Electro Traveler’s Burst: When you use the burst, it sends out a wave of Electro energy, damaging enemies and applying Electro to them.
- Cryo Characters: Characters like Ganyu, Diona, and Rosaria deal Cryo damage and can apply Cryo to enemies.
The Reaction: Superconduct
The most important reaction between Electro and Cryo is Superconduct. When Electro and Cryo come together on an enemy, it creates Superconduct. This reaction has two main effects:
- Decreased Physical Resistance: Superconduct lowers the enemy’s Physical Resistance. This means your characters who deal physical damage (like Razor or Eula) will hit harder.
- Electro and Cryo Damage: Superconduct also reduces the Electro and Cryo damage the enemy takes. This might seem counterintuitive, but it can be a good thing.
Why Superconduct is Great:
Imagine you have Razor, your main DPS (damage dealer), and Diona, who applies Cryo. When Diona hits an enemy with Cryo, and then Electro Traveler’s burst hits them, you get Superconduct. Now, Razor’s physical attacks hit even harder! This is a really strong combo for dealing damage.
Important Notes:
- Timing is Key: For Superconduct to work, you need to make sure the Electro and Cryo elements are applied to the enemy in quick succession.
- Cryo Application: Cryo characters like Diona can constantly apply Cryo with their skills, making it easier to trigger Superconduct with the Electro Traveler’s burst.
- Not Just for Physical Damage: Superconduct can also be useful for characters who deal both Physical and Elemental damage, like Keqing.
Other Reactions:
While Superconduct is the most common and useful reaction, you can also get Frozen if you apply Cryo before Electro. Frozen will freeze the enemy, but it’s less useful in this scenario as it doesn’t boost damage.
In Conclusion:
The Electro Traveler’s burst is a valuable tool for boosting your damage output, especially when paired with Cryo characters. By triggering Superconduct, you can significantly increase your Physical damage, making your team even more powerful. It’s all about understanding how elements interact and using them strategically to your advantage!
