Hydro is one of the seven Elements.
Its associated Archon is the God of Justice, whose domain is Fontaine.
Elemental Resonance
Having two Hydro characters in the group results in the Elemental Resonance:
- Soothing Water: Affected by Pyro for 40% less time. Increases incoming healing by 30%.
Elemental Reactions
Hydro has the following Elemental Reactions:
Electro-Charged: Deals Electro DMG and high Poise Damage over time to all nearby targets with the Wet status.
Frozen: Immobilizes the target. Hitting a Frozen target with a Blunt Attack will cause Shattered, dealing Physical DMG.
Vaporize: Deals ×2 Hydro DMG when a Hydro attack triggers the reaction.
Swirl: Deals Non-AoE Hydro DMG while spreading the Wet status to nearby enemies.- Crystallize: Creates a Hydro shard. Picking it up creates a Hydro shield around the character.
The elemental reaction Bloom is expected to come with the Version 3.0 update, after the release of Sumeru.[1]
Wet Status
Wet itself does not have any special effects; it is simply considered the application of Hydro. However, being affected by Wet allows Hydro Elemental Reactions to occur.
Any source of Hydro DMG will apply Wet. It will also be applied during rain and upon coming in contact with bodies of water.
Wet Status to Self
The following Talents apply the Wet status to its user and/or the active character. 4 Talents match the category selection:
| Character | Name | Description | Type |
