As such, we’ve created this guide explaining elemental resonance in Genshin Impact, including a list of all elemental resonance effects so you know exactly what will happen if you pair up certain elements.
What is elemental resonance
Elemental resonance refers to passive bonuses granted to your Genshin Impact team when you have two or more characters of the same elemental type. So for example, if you have Amber and Klee on your team at the same time, the Pyro elemental resonance effect will activate. You can look at your current elemental resonance from your party page. Once there, click on the elemental resonance button on the top right of your screen, and you’ll be taken to a breakdown of what effects are active. There’s also a unique elemental resonance effect when you have four unique elements active at once, which provides a general buff that benefits all your characters. As such, you’ll have an elemental resonance effect activate at all times, but it’s very important you have a specific elemental resonance effect active that synergizes with your main carry character (the character dealing the most damage / you’ll be using the most). For example, if you’re using Klee as your main damage carry, the Pyro elemental resonance is what you want.
