Pyro characters are burning, destructive symbols of power in Genshin Impact, taking down groups of enemies and leaving piles of ash in their wake. Their combat abilities are usually geared toward dealing massive amounts of damage, and Elemental Reactions involving Pyro are an explosive sight to behold on the battlefield. Wielders of Pyro also have access to a handy Attack buff when other Pyro characters are on your team—the Fervent Flames Elemental Resonance.
Pyro pairs
The Fervent Flames buff isfocused on buffing your team’s AttackPercentage, allowing you to quickly mow down enemies with hard-hitting Attacks, Elemental Skills, and Elemental Bursts. Elemental Resonance is required to activate this buff, however, meaning you’ll need to includeat least two Pyro characters on your teambefore benefiting from the following effects:
There are a total often playable Pyro characterscurrently available as of Genshin Impact 2.4, so you have a few choices when it comes to deciding which fiery fighters belong on your team. While each Pyro wielder is strong on their own, there are two pairs of characters that burn a bit brighter than the rest.

Hu Tao and Bennett
The first Pyro pair on this list is Hu Tao and Bennett, a team that works as a fantasticMain Damage-per-Second and Supportcombo. Hu Tao takes on the role of primary damage dealer in this pairing, incinerating opponents and healing herself, while Bennett helps to provide further healing and an increase to your team’s Attack.
Hu Tao’s Elemental Skillconsumes a portion of her Health to grant some pretty helpful buffs—increased Attack based on her Max Health and increased resistance to interruption, along with all Attack Damage being converted to Pyro Damage for a short time. Each enemy hit while under these effects will beafflicted by aBlood Blossom, dealing Pyro Damage every four seconds. On the other hand, Hu Tao’s Elemental Burst deals Area-of-Effect Pyro Damage whileregenerating Health for each enemy hit.
Bennett’s Elemental Burstcreates an Inspiration Field, dealing Area-of-Effect Pyro Damage to any foes within its radius. This field will alsoregenerate the Health of characterswith less than 70 percent of their Health remaining and grantan Attack Bonusto characters withmorethan 70 percent of their Health remaining. This makes Bennett a great Pyro Support for Hu Tao, restoring the Health that she loses when using her Elemental Skill.

Yoimiya and Bennett
The second pair appearing on this list, Yoimiya and Thoma, are another great option if you’re looking for aMain Damage-per-Second and Support combo. Yoimiya fills the role of the heavy-hitter, using her signature fireworks to cause large explosions, while Thoma acts as her support by creating damage absorbing barriers.
Yoimiya’s Elemental Skill transforms her arrows into Blazing Arrows,converting all Damage to Pyro Damagefor a short time and increasing the amount of Damage dealt. Her Elemental Burst fires forth a barrage of blazing rockets, dealingArea-of-Effect Pyro Damage and applying Aurorus Blazeto one of the hit opponents. When the marked enemy is hit byAttacks, Elemental Skills, or Elemental Bursts, a second explosion is triggered, dealing further Area-of-Effect Pyro Damage.
Thoma’s Elemental Skill and Burst both dealArea-of-Effect Pyro Damage, along with creating a nifty protective defense for your active character—Blazing Barrier. This barrierabsorbs Pyro Damage 250 percent more effectively, allowing Yoimiya to survive the fire from all of the explosions she creates. Blazing Barrier’s Damage Absorptionscales with Thoma’s Max Health, so be sure to invest in that stat to bring out his barrier’s full potential.
Both of these pairs can work great in any team combination, you just need to pick the one that’s the right fit for your vision. And remember, these are just our picks from the characters currently available, so be sure to check back in as more Pyro characters are released for future updates!
