Elemental Reactions — Which One Deserves Your Team?
A visual guide to every reaction: what it does and when to build a party around it.
There are only two kinds of reaction, and knowing the difference saves you a lot of mistakes.
1) Amplifying — multiplies your number by 1.5x or 2x
- Vaporize: Pyro + Hydro — the strongest and most popular
- Melt: Pyro + Cryo — higher burst, harder to keep up
These multiply a single hit, so they suit big-hit units like 
هو تاو.
2) Transformative — damage independent of your ATK
- Hyperbloom: Hydro + Dendro + Electro — homing damage scaling off EM
- Aggravate: Dendro + Electro — flat bonus added to every Electro hit
- Swirl: Anemo spreads the element onto every enemy
- Crystallize: Geo turns every reaction into a shield
Transformative reactions ignore your ATK — they scale on Elemental Mastery and level. That is why 
كوكي شينوبو on pure EM deals huge damage without any 5-star weapon.
Control before damage
Freeze — the enemy simply does not move

سانغونوميا كوكوميFreeze (Cryo + Hydro) is not damage, but it is the strongest control in the game: a frozen enemy is a harmless enemy.
Careful: adding Pyro to a freeze team breaks the freeze. Pick one identity and commit — the Fusion Lab warns you about this automatically.
