Until last year, players could not play any characters from the element Dendro.
Until today a total of eight Dendro characters have been revealed.
Each of them has a different set of powers and wields different weapons.
So lets take a look at how they stack against each in terms of their abilities.
What are Dendro Characters in Genshin Impact?
Dendro is the element behind the strengths of all these characters.
They channel the power of nature and plants to stun the enemies in their path.
It is one of the seven elements that exist in the world of Genshin Impact.
The Sumero region is where the Dendro element is rooted.
According to the lore, this region is ruled by the Archon Kusanali.
She is the youngest among all gods who have dominion over the elements in the game.
Dendro characters bring new elemental reactions, such as Catalyze and Bloom.
These are basicallysouped-up attacks.
When you combine two characters and switch between them, the enemy will deal with larger damage.
The star rating indicates how rare a character is along its wielded weapon.
Now lets go through which characters have special abilities and how their elemental reaction stacks up.
Alhaitham
Alhaitham is a rare character if you want to deal DMG to enemies on the ground.
He uses a chisel mirror to deliver the blows using his sword.
His attacks have greater damage and have a high rate of Dendro program.
This is particularly due to the high DPS that he delivers.
Plus, his elemental reactions are sure to deal heavy DMG to nearby foes.
She is one of the best users of the Dendro attacks.
She uses catalysts to perform the attacks.
Her elemental bursts have great AoE, which means a large horde can be damaged when put into effect.
You need smaller energy for the bursts, and the cooldown time is relatively short.
Also, do not forget that she is very effective in the Dendro app, even from a distance.
Baizhu
You should choose Baizhu if you want to use it as a healer.
It does not have a high Dendro utility like some other characters here, so keep that in mind.
If you pair it as a secondary character, it buffs up the Dendro from the main character.
Also, it can accentuate elemental reactions from others in the party.
When used as a Dendro spreader, it can apply from multiple sources.
It wields the same weapon as Collei.
But it has limited damage when it is at a distance from the enemies.
Its elemental DMG gives the most hits when combined with other party members.
Collie
She is one of the first Sumeru characters.
Her charged attacks are useful when solving puzzles.
Though she may not be employed as a high DPS character, her AoE makes a great sub-Dendro applier.
Particularly the elemental skill and burst are useful when doing damage from a distance.
The only problem is the long cooldown times between elemental reactions.
Kaveh
Kaveh has a multi-purpose use in parties.
It can act as a primary high DPS and also as a spreader for blooms and elemental skills.
The self-healing capability is particularly useful during bloom explosions.
The only problem is that the off-field attacks do not deal as much damage.
Also, her experimental burst deals good damages.
But if you are looking to use her from a distance, then the Dendro tool is minimal.
Unless you have a high constellation, it does not increase her DMG.
Yaoyao
Yaoyao has good healing capabilities, which make her a nice addition to many parties.
Add in her elemental bursts, which can render significant DMGs.
Only keep in mind that the off-field characters will lose HPs, and she cannot heal them.
Which Elemental Reactions Come With Dendro Characters?
Elemental reactions are when you combine two attacks using different elements.
This is often made possible when you switch two characters and use their respective attacks.
Then the overall effect will cause more damage to your enemies.
These damages can be increased by adding artifacts.
Then the damages will amplify further.
you might also use Dendro characters for elemental reactions.
The table below shows that.
Which Elemental Resonance Do You Get with Dendro?
Elemental resonances are bonuses that you receive once you nail the same elemental characters in your party.
The same is true for Dendro elements.
If you equip two Dendro characters in your build, you get the Sprawling Greenery effect.
Note that the durations mentioned here will be separate from each other and have separate counters for them.
