Bloom is a combination of Hydro and Dendro. When these two elements react, it will spawn a Dendro Core. Only a set amount of Dendro Cores can be on the field at any time.
The character who creates the Dendro Core will affect the damage of the Dendro Core explosion. Dendro Cores will explode when more are created past the limit or if their spawn duration ends, dealing Dendro damage. This damage can be increased by Elemental Mastery.

| Effect | Detonates the Dendro Core, dealing AoE Dendro damage |
Burgeon is the reaction when a Dendro Core comes into contact with the Pyro Element. This will cause the Dendro Core to explode, dealing wide AoE Dendro damage.
The character who is the source of the Pyro damage will affect the damage from the Burgeon reaction. This damage can be increased by the character's Elemental Mastery or certain effects that increase Burgeon damage.

Catalyze is the reaction when Dendro and Electro comes into contact with each other to create the Quicken Aura. The Quicken Aura is signified by the green lightning around the enemy.
Both Dendro and Electro will need to be applied on the enemy to refresh the duration of the Quicken Aura.
| Aggravate Elemental Reaction | |

 |
|
| Effect | Deals increased Electro Damage. |
Aggravate is the reaction when an enemy with the Quicken Aura takes Electro damage. The Electro attack that hits the Quickened enemy will deal increased Electro damage.
This Electro damage can be further increased by the Elemental Mastery of the character and by certain effects that increase Aggravate damage.
| Spread Elemental Reaction | |

| Effect | Deals increased Dendro Damage. |
Spread is the reaction when an enemy with the Quicken Aura takes Dendro damage. The Dendro attack that hits the Quickened enemy will deal increased Dendro damage.
This Dendro damage can be further increased by the Elemental Mastery of the character and by certain effects that increase Spread damage.
| Burning Elemental Reaction | |
|---|---|
 |
|
| Effect | Deals Pyro damage over time |
| Order | Any |
Burning is the reaction when an enemy with a Dendro or a Pyro Aura comes into contact with Pyro or Dendro damage respectively. It will deal Pyro damage over time.
The Pyro damage from burning will be affected by the character who triggers the burning reaction. This damage can be increased by Elemental Mastery and by certain effects that increase Burning damage.
Burning can be refreshed infinitely by Dendro damage.
Elemental Mastery increased by 50. After triggering Burning, Quicken, or Bloom, all nearby party members gain 30 Elemental Mastery for 6s. After triggering Aggravate, Spread, Hyperbloom, or Burgeon reactions, all nearby party members gain 20 Elemental Mastery for 6s. The durations of the aformentioned effects will be counted independently.
Dendro is the Plant Element in Genshin Impact, with Sumeru being the designated Dendro Region and Lesser Lord Kusanali as the Dendro Archon
The Dendro Aura has no negative effects when applied to characters. However, this enables Dendro Elemental reactions to trigger like Burning if it comes into contact with other Elements.
