Damage over time, abbreviated as DOT, refers to the harm done over time to a human or computer player character in video and computer games, typically until that character receives assistance or a cure in the level. For instance, poison damage or spells can be a type of DOT in many games. The player can monitor the DOT’s ongoing effects by checking their health in the HUD.

How to activate Amplified Elemental Reactions in Genshin Impact
There are two Amplified Reactions in the game. These multiply the damage of existing attacks by 1. 5x or 2x depending on what Element triggers the Reaction. To maximize the damage output of Amplified Reactions, you must carefully set up your teams to apply Elements in a specific order.
- To activate Melt, apply Cryo to an enemy first, then inflict Pyro (or vice versa).
- Effect: Increases the damage of the attack that started the Reaction while expelling both Elements.
The ideal scenario for damage is to first deal Cyro damage and then deal Pyro damage to activate the 2x damage multiplier.
- Activation: To activate Vaporize, apply Pyro to an enemy, then deal Hydro damage (or vice versa).
- Effect—Increases the damage of the attack that triggered the Reaction.
It is best to first apply Pyro before using Hydro to start the reaction. You will receive a 2x damage multiplier instead of a 1x one for doing so. 5x if you inflict the Elements in reverse order.
Swirl and Burning are examples of transformative reactions that further apply an element and may consequently cause amplifying reactions. For instance, a Pyro Swirl can strike nearby targets that are affected by Hydro when Anemo is applied to a target that is Pyro affected. In this instance, the amplifying reaction increases the damage that is dealt to the target that Hydro has affected by an additional multiplier (the “Amplifying Multiplier”).
