Venti’s Elemental Burst can group enemies together and apply crowd control, and he can help spread Hydo attachment from Mona to enemies nearby. 

Support

Faruzan

Faruzan can apply Anemo RES decrease at enemies and DMG Bonus to Wanderer by using her Elemental Burst.

Support

Durin

Durin gains either the “Confirmation of Purity” or “Denial of Darkness” state through his Elemental Skill, and his Elemental Burst will also take on different forms depending on which state he is in. The “Confirmation of Purity” state focuses on support utility, providing continuous Off-field Pyro DMG while causing nearby party members, when they trigger Burning, Overloaded, Pyro Swirl, or Pyro Crystallize on enemies, or deal Pyro DMG or Dendro DMG to enemies affected by Burning, to reduce those enemies’ Pyro RES and the RES of the corresponding element. The “Denial of Darkness” state focuses on Durin’s own damage output, providing higher-damage Off-field Pyro DMG and further increasing Durin’s reaction damage in Vaporize or Melt teams. Additionally, when Durin is teamed up with a Hexerei character, both of the above effects will be further strengthened.

Healer/Support

Bennett

Bennett’s Elemental Burst provides huge ATK buff and healing to other members. When the Pyro Element from Bennett is contacted by Wanderer’s Elemental Skill, Wanderer’s ATK is increased by 30%.
