All New Buffs in Genshin Impact 3.0 Update

According to HoYoverse forums, Dendro element will be affecting two elements, Hydro and Electro. These updates stem from the new elemental resonances called Sprawling Greenery, Soothing Water, and High Voltage. Here’s what you need to know about the three elemental resonances and why they’re going to be great for Hydro and Electro vision holders:

  • Sprawling Greenery: This will help by increasing elemental mastery by 50 and anyone close to you will gain 30 elemental mastery for six seconds. This means your elemental powers will be increased, which means, more critical damage. This is considered an Dendro resonance and will help all elements.
  • Soothing Water: Your max HP will be increased by 25% and being affected by Pyro will be reduced to 40%. This is an Hydro resonance and due to your HP increasing it can be very important for support.
  • High Voltage: This adjustment will be affected by Hydro for 40% less time. If you use Superconduct, Overloaded, Electro-Charged, Quicken, Aggravate, or Hyperbloom you’ll 100% generate Electro particles. This is an Electro resonance.

With the release of the new Dendro elemental and the buffs players are excited especially mains that love giving their characters support. We will probably see a shift in which characters will be popular. Many players will start looking for five star Hydro or Electro characters to use in battle. This will also help players with their healing abilities and players will try to alter their team to combine both Hydro and Electro. So, when are we going to see these new buffs in the game? You can expect to see the changes on August 24th 2022 during the 3.0 update.

New Characters in Genshin Impact 3.0 Update

Buffs and abilities are great but what else are we going to expect from the new update? Genshin Impact has released new characters to the line up. We will be meeting Candace, Nilo, and Cyno. Candace is considered a guardian of Aaru village. Nilo is a dancer and is the star of Zubayr Theater. Cyno is a general. These new characters have Electro and Hydro visions and will be a popular choice to pick up with the new buffs added. So, which one are you hoping to drop primogems? Will you be wishing for Cyno or how about Candace?
