The Spark of Change: Dendro’s New Electro Reaction
You might be wondering, "How does Dendro react with Electro, and is it anything like Aggravate?" Well, it’s a bit more complicated than a simple yes or no. While they both involve Electro and cause damage, their mechanics are different, making each unique in its own way. Let’s break down the differences:
Aggravate: This reaction is a two-step process. First, you need to apply Electro to an enemy. Then, using a Dendro character’s attack, you trigger Aggravate. This triggers a rapid burst of Electro damage, making it ideal for dealing high damage quickly. Imagine a quick, fiery explosion.
New Dendro-Electro Reaction: This is a little more nuanced. It starts with a Dendro core being applied to an enemy. This core isn’t the actual reaction itself, but rather a prerequisite. You need to apply Electro while the Dendro core is active. Once you do, you’ll see the reaction activate with a small AoE (area of effect) explosion.
The Key Differences:
- Timing: Aggravate requires Electro to be applied before the Dendro attack, while the new reaction happens during the Dendro core’s existence.
- Damage Type: While both reactions deal Electro damage, the new one incorporates Dendro, offering a potential for unique elemental reactions when combined with other elements like Hydro or Cryo. Imagine a chain reaction of elements!
- Damage Output: Aggravate boasts higher damage potential thanks to its quick, focused explosion. However, the new reaction’s AoE effect might make it more beneficial for dealing damage to multiple targets.
The Pros and Cons:
Aggravate:
- Pros: High damage potential, quick application.
- Cons: Focused damage, might not be effective against multiple targets.
New Dendro-Electro Reaction:
- Pros: AoE damage, potential for unique elemental reactions, easier to apply.
- Cons: Lower damage output compared to Aggravate, requires a Dendro core first.
In Summary:
Both Aggravate and the new Dendro-Electro reaction have their own strengths and weaknesses. Aggravate is perfect for focused, high-damage bursts, while the new reaction offers AoE damage and potential for unique combinations. Ultimately, the best reaction for you will depend on your team composition, playstyle, and the enemies you’re facing.
So, don’t think of them as replacements for each other, but rather as complementary tools. Understanding how each reaction works and how to use them effectively will allow you to unleash the full potential of your team and dominate the battlefield!
