Let’s talk about Electro Traveler’s burst and how it interacts with Cryo shields in co-op! It’s a bit of a special situation that can be a bit confusing at first.
So, Electro Traveler’s burst is a powerful AoE attack that deals Electro damage and also applies Electro status. The thing is, Cryo shields are really good at resisting Electro damage. This means that your Electro Traveler’s burst might not do as much damage as you’d expect when a Cryo shield is around.
Here’s the key thing: Electro Traveler’s burst doesn’t break Cryo shields. This is different from other Electro characters like Raiden Shogun or Fischl, whose attacks can actually shatter Cryo shields.
So, what does this mean for co-op? Imagine you’re playing with a friend who’s using a Cryo character like Diona. They’ve popped their Cryo shield to protect the team. If you use your Electro Traveler’s burst, it’ll still hit the enemies inside the shield. However, it’ll struggle to do much damage to them because of the shield. The shield will just absorb most of the Electro damage.
Here are a couple of things to keep in mind:
- Don’t rely on your Electro Traveler’s burst to break Cryo shields. It’s just not designed for that. If you need to break a Cryo shield, consider using a character like Raiden Shogun, Fischl, or another character that specializes in breaking shields.
- If you’re facing enemies with Cryo shields, try to coordinate with your teammates. One teammate might be able to break the Cryo shield while the other teammate deals damage.
Here’s an example of how this works in co-op:
You’re playing with a friend who’s using Diona. You’re using Electro Traveler. You come across a group of Hilichurls with a Cryo shield. You use your Electro Traveler’s burst, but it doesn’t do much damage because the shield is absorbing most of the Electro energy. Your friend then uses their Diona’s skill, which is a Cryo attack that can break Cryo shields. The Cryo shield breaks, and you can now do full damage with your Electro Traveler’s burst.
So, while Electro Traveler’s burst can be a valuable tool in co-op, it’s important to remember that it’s not the best choice for breaking Cryo shields. By understanding how it interacts with Cryo shields, you can work with your teammates to maximize your damage and overcome any challenges.
