Genshin Impact's Shuyu's Baffling Beetle Battle Bowl: A Comprehensive Guide to Victory
Shuyu's Baffling Beetle Battle Bowl is a limited-time event in Genshin Impact Version 5.3, challenging players to beetle battles. This guide provides a straightforward approach to conquering all five battles.
Event Requirements:
To participate, you must:
- Have Adventure Rank 20 or higher.
- Complete the Mondstadt Archon Quest Prologue. Completing Xianyun's Story Quest, "Grus Serena Chapter," provides helpful backstory.
Gameplay Mechanics:
The event involves controlling an Onikabuto beetle in simulated battles within your Serenitea Pot at Mt. Aocang against various enemies. Controls are simple: Forward, Backward, and Jump. Careful stamina management is key, as movement and attacks consume stamina. The Piercing Strike (holding the attack button) is a powerful, stamina-intensive move.
Battle Strategies:
Here's a breakdown of each stage's opponent and recommended tactics:
- Staff Master Who Only Uses Basic Horizontal Sweeps: A basic Hilichurl; repeatedly target its head, dodging its attacks indicated by ground markings.
- Staff Master Who Waves a Torch About Non-Stop: A Hilichurl Berserker with a Pyro Slime. Focus attacks on its head and the Pyro Slime, particularly when it's preparing to throw it.
- Mumbly-Bumbly Red-Hot Mage: A Pyro Abyss Mage. Interrupt its spellcasting, then attack repeatedly. Dodge its fireballs and flame pillars.
- Bouncy, Energetic Mage Who’s Actually Freezing Cold: A Cryo Abyss Mage. Employ the same strategy as the Pyro Abyss Mage.
- Big Guy Said to be Solid as a Mini Mountain: A Stonehide Lawachurl. Quickly attack, dodging its attacks. A Geo Slime will appear; use a Piercing Strike for maximum damage.
Difficulty Selection & Co-op:
Choose "Focused Fight" (two stars) for optimal Primogem rewards (30-20 per stage). "Utmost Might" (three stars), unlocked after completing Focused Fight, offers Mora and Enhancement Ores but no Primogems. A co-op mode allows teaming up with other players.
Rewards:
Completing all stages on Focused Fight difficulty yields substantial Primogems and other valuable resources. Utmost Might offers alternative rewards.
Don't miss out! The event concludes on January 13, 2025, at 03:59 server time.
Genshin Impact is available now.
