Talents
The first thing you should understand in order to take full advantage of Hu Tao’s power would be her playstyle. Unlike any other character, her full potential lies within a very specific objective and that is by keeping her health below 50% as long as possible which is heavily influenced by several different factors with the most important one being her passive talent that provides Hu Tao with sizeable pyro DMG bonus.
This is a very crucial thing you will need to manage because her elemental skill will infuse her attacks with Pyro and getting that bonus from the mentioned passive on top of every attack is something you should strive for all the time.

Only an unwavering flame can cleanse the impurities of this world. Hu Tao consumes a set portion of her HP to knock the surrounding enemies back and enter the Paramita Papilio state. Paramita Papilio State Blood Blossom Effect |

Attributes | Level 1 | Level 15 |
---|---|---|
Activation Cost | 30% Current HP | 30% Current HP |
ATK Increase | 3.84% Max HP | 7.75% Max HP |
Blood Blossom DMG | 64% | 152% |
Blood Blossom Duration | 8 Seconds | 8 Seconds |
Duration | 9 Seconds | 9 Seconds |
Cooldown | 16 Seconds | 16 Seconds |
Hu Tao consumes part of her HP to cast her Elemental Skill knocking nearby enemies back and entering the Paramita Papilio state. This converts her attack DMG to Pyro DMG which cannot be overridden by another elemental infusion. Her resistance to the interruption is also increased and she receives an ATK increase based on her Max HP when entering this state.
After unlocking the Talent “Flutter By”, ending Paramita Papilio increases the CRIT Rate of all of Hu Tao’s party members other than herself for a set duration. Moreover, while Paramita Papilio is in effect, Hu Tao’s Charged Attacks apply the Blood Blossom effect to enemies it hits and enemies affected by Blood Blossom will take Pyro DMG at set intervals.
This effect automatically expires after a while and only one Blood Blossom can exist on any one target at a time and only Hu Tao can refresh its duration.
