For the seventh stage of Endless Forms Most Martial, form a team capable of triggering the Melt reaction. Bringing characters who can consistently apply Cryo and Pyro is needed for this round.

When forming a team with the trial characters, make sure to include another Pyro applicator and a support character, such as Zhongli or Diona, who can create a shield to keep Ganyu from being interrupted as she executes her charged attacks.

Melt Reaction Guide

Defeat Opponents Within 3 Seconds of Triggering Melt

Use Characters That Consistently Apply Cryo and Pyro

Bring characters that can reliably apply Pyro and Cryo to trigger the Melt reaction. To progress through the challenge, make sure to trigger the Melt reaction on enemies within 3 seconds before defeating them. Try to trigger the reaction when their HP is low to meet the objective.

Apply Cryo to Enemies Before Entering Phase Shift

Continuously triggering reaction will also allow you to enter Phase Shift, which when activated will unleash an AoE Pyro DMG, therefore make sure that the enemies are affected by Cryo so that the Melt reaction can be immediately triggered!
