Conquer the Shuyu's Baffling Beetle Battle Bowl in Genshin Impact 5.3! This guide provides a straightforward approach to mastering this limited-time beetle battling event.
Event Prerequisites:
To participate, ensure you've reached Adventure Rank 20 and completed the Mondstadt Archon Quest Prologue. While not mandatory, completing Xianyun's Story Quest, "Grus Serena Chapter," enriches the event's narrative context.
Gameplay Mechanics:
The event pits your Onikabuto beetle against various enemies within a Teapot simulation at Mt. Aocang. Control is intuitive, utilizing forward, backward, and jump mechanics. Mastering stamina management is key, as movement and attacks consume stamina. Strategic use of Piercing Strikes (by holding the attack button) is crucial for maximizing damage.
Enemy Strategies:
The five stages present unique challenges:
- Staff Master (Basic Sweeps): A simple Hilichurl; focus attacks on its head, dodging ground-marked attack zones.
- Staff Master (Torch Wielder): A Hilichurl Berserker with a Pyro Slime; target its head and the Pyro Slime, particularly during its throw animation.
- Pyro Abyss Mage: This tougher opponent utilizes fireballs and flame pillars; interrupt its incantations before attacking.
- Cryo Abyss Mage: Employ the same strategy as the Pyro Abyss Mage.
- Stonehide Lawachurl: A swift, aggressive opponent; attack rapidly, watching for its attacks. A Geo Slime will appear; utilize a Piercing Strike for significant damage.
Difficulty Selection and Co-op:
Opt for the two-star "Focused Fight" difficulty for optimal Primogem rewards (30 and 20, depending on the stage). "Utmost Might" (three-star) offers Mora and Enhancement Ores but no Primogems. Utilize the "Match" function for co-op gameplay.
Rewards:
Complete all stages on "Focused Fight" for a total of 420 Primogems. Additional rewards include Hero's Wit, Sanctifying Unction, Mora, and Mystic Enhancement Ore.
Don't miss out! The event concludes on January 13, 2025, at 03:59 Genshin Impact server time.
