GOT IT somehow I assumed his hydromancy was also at cap.
He does not have elemental/magic attack resistance so if his hydro blades are meant to cut like steel (magically or just because they're like high velocity water chainsaws) they'll be equally effective! He's also a melee fighter predominately which Childe will def know by now. Syr's main thing as a Mesmer is attempting to dominate the positioning of the field so he can levy attacks without getting severely hit himself, but physically he's very mortal and his raw power is like... in the middle of "ordinary human" to "power cap".
