After initiating the fight with Bennett’s Elemental Burst, the Traveler switches over to Kazuha to begin amplifying the Pyro damage with Swirl. Kazuha’s Elemental Burst also groups all nearby foes in one place, which enables Candace to effortlessly apply Hydro to them.
The Polearm user then uses Sacred Rite: Heron’s Sanctum to sponge incoming attacks, before leaping into the air to deal additional Hydro damage to all her foes. Her DPS is raised even further when the player unleashes her Elemental Burst, which deals increased Elemental damage with normal attacks.
If that wasn’t enough, whenever a character takes to the field when Candace’s ult is active, they will unleash waves of water that deal Hydro damage to nearby enemies. This is demonstrated when Zhongli is switched onto the battlefield.
While it’s still early days, Candace certainly looks like a strong Hydro unit that can both work as a main and sub DPS. Make sure to check out our Genshin Impact page for all the latest news and guides.
