Elemental Resonance Guide

Elements play a vital role in Genshin Impact’s fast-paced combat and may dictate how hard or easy your encounters will be. Since each character in the game is aligned to specific elements, this can also affect how you arrange your team. Of course, you’ll want to use your favorite characters but knowing who to swap with before facing an element-specific boss will help your team a lot. In this page, we’ll cover the basics of the Elemental Resonance feature of the game.

As mentioned above, each character in the game is assigned to a specific element. As part of the game’s combat system, triggering elemental reactions is recommended for tough battles. You can take advantage of knowing your party’s Elemental Resonance. Simply put, this is the bonus effect that gets activated depending on the elements of your current party. There are 7 elemental resonances that you have to track of.

For the resonance to take effect, you need to have a full party first. Since almost all combos will require two party members of the same element to activate, you can have up to two resonances active at the same time.
