Mastering Genshin Impact's Lord of Eroded Primal Fire: A Comprehensive Guide
Genshin Impact's Natlan Archon Quest introduces a formidable weekly boss: the Lord of Eroded Primal Fire. This challenging dragon boss requires strategic preparation and execution. This guide details its location, effective strategies, and the benefits of co-op play.
Where to Find the Lord of Eroded Primal Fire
Located within the Stone Stele Records domain, south of the Statue of Seven near the Masters of the Night-Wind tribe, this domain is accessible after completing the final chapter of the Archon Quest: When All Becomes A Monument. Alternatively, use the Quick Challenge option in the Adventurer's Handbook. Entering costs 30 Original Resin per attempt.
How to Defeat the Lord of Eroded Primal Fire
This fight heavily favors characters from Natlan (like Mavuika, Kinich, Citlali, and Mualani) due to their Nightsoul Blessing abilities. The boss utilizes several key mechanics:
1. Destroying the Pillars:
The Lord of Eroded Primal Fire summons three pillars and three Tenebrous Mimiflora. Nightsoul Blessing characters significantly expedite pillar destruction. Rapidly breaking these pillars immobilizes the dragon for approximately 10 seconds, creating a crucial damage window. Failure to break the pillars quickly results in an Eroded Meteor attack, requiring robust shielding and healing. Healers like Furina, Kokomi, Kuki, Barbara, and Bennett are essential for mitigating the substantial damage and corrosion effect.
2. Dodging Attacks and Strategic Positioning:
The dragon's unpredictable attacks, including sword slashes and smashes, require precise dodging. When the battlefield is reduced, staying close to the dragon and attacking from underneath can be effective, but constant healing is crucial due to the Eroded Dragon Breath attack (Pyro and Erosion DMG). Staying near its legs helps avoid the full brunt of the Dragon Breath.
3. Utilizing Co-op Mode:
Co-op mode significantly eases the fight, especially the pillar phase. The 'Match' button facilitates finding other players with Nightsoul Blessing characters for a more manageable encounter.
Conclusion
Conquering the Lord of Eroded Primal Fire demands strategic character selection, precise dodging, consistent healing, and a solid understanding of its attack patterns. While challenging, the rewards and the experience are well worth the effort, especially with the assistance of co-op.
