Summary
AGenshin Impactleak has revealed important details about a new elemental reaction that is expected to become part of the game in the upcoming months. Elemental reactions are a core mechanic inGenshin Impact, and they can be triggered by combining different elements on an enemy target.
At the moment, there are seven different elements in the world of Teyvat, with Dendro being the most recently added one. With the introduction of Dendro,Genshin Impactalso added numerous elemental reactions, which completely shifted the meta, making some elements much more powerful while others became almost obsolete.
Over the last couple of days,Genshin Impacthas been hinting at a new Cryo elemental reaction that will be tied to the Imaginarium Theater domain, at least for now. A credible leaker named HomDGCat has revealed moredetailsabout this reaction, and it will apparently be triggered by combiningGenshin Impact’s Dendro and Cryo elements. This means that, over two years after Sumeru and Dendro arrived, Cryo will finally be able to interact with Dendro, one of the major complaints in the community. Many fans hope that the Imaginarium Theater will serve as a testing phase for the new reaction, as there is no real reason why it should not be implemented in the rest of the game.
Genshin Impact: Cryo and Dendro Elemental Reaction Explained
Even though players have not yet had the opportunity to test this elemental reaction, the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, with many comments claiming that a similar reaction should be implemented inGenshin Impact’s overworld. This reaction would significantly improve the viability of Cryo, Electro, and Physical characters in the game. Some fans suspect that HoYoverse will monitor how the two different paths perform and eventually make one of them a permanent part of the game.
Adding a Cryo elemental reaction this late in the game’s development would not be a big surprise, considering that HoYoverse has recently been paying more attention to some of its original elements and their reactions. However, it will likely take months of testing beforeGenshin Impactintroduces a new elemental reactionthat is not exclusive to the Imaginarium Theater domain.
