#GenshinImpact categorizing elemental bursts thread since us humans like to sort things

i'm not trashing your fave by saying their burst is the same as another burst because i think that's the point about bursts. they have to be similar since they use the same game mechanics
1D bursts are bursts that deal damage in one direction, like diluc's burst and albedo's burst. anemo traveler's burst is in this category as well
in the 1D category is a subcategory i call one-shot bursts. these deal damage/apply effects in one shot at one spot. some of these bursts happen to have an aoe, but since they don't last as long as traditional aoe bursts, i didn't put them in the aoe category
other characters who have one-shot bursts:
🔶 geo traveler
🔶 zhongli
❄ chongyun
☇ keqing
💧 mona
💧 childe
🔥 xinyan
🔥 hu tao
next are the dual purpose bursts. these bursts apply two effects, whereas other bursts apply only one. bennett and jean have such bursts, which offer healing along with an attack buff or anemo infusion
now i'll talk about aoe bursts. these bursts deal damage within an aoe for a period of time.

other characters with this burst:
🍃 sucrose
❄ rosaria
❄ ganyu
finally, character-centered bursts. these bursts apply effects directly to the character, and these effects can be carried over when you switch to a different character.
within this category is the subcategory of selfish bursts. these bursts apply effects to a character that cannot be carried over when you switch to a different character. xiao is in this category too but i couldn't find his multi wish artwork that the other characters have.
does this thread really matter? no but i thought it was interesting enough 👉👈
maybe you already knew that elemental bursts fit into categories. if you did, high five! 👋 you're a genshin geek /j
