Manifests the Court of Dreams and expands the Shrine of Maya.
When the Shrine of Maya field is unleashed, separate effects will be triggered based on the Elemental Types present within the party.
The effects are as follows:
Pyro:
While Nahida remains within the Shrine of Maya, the damage dealt by Tri-Karma Purification from All Schemes to Know (elemental skill) is increased.
Electro:
While Nahida remains within the Shrine of Maya, the interval between each Tri-Karma Purification from All Schemes to Know (elemental skill) is decreased.
Hydro:
The Shrine of Maya’s duration is increased.
If at least two party members of the aforementioned Elemental Types are present when the field is deployed, the effects mentioned earlier will be increased further.
Even if Nahida is not on the field, these bonuses will still take effect so long as party members are within the Shrine of Maya.
Unlocking the 1st constellation will effectively give you the 2-character bonuses for each element.
And depending on your team comp, you can stack more than one effect or all of them.
Furthermore, upon unlocking the passive talent at ascension 1, the active character will receive a 25% Elemental Mastery bonus derived from the party member with the highest EM stat.
