Author : Zachary Feb 10,2025

Conquer the Shuyu's Baffling Beetle Battle Bowl in Genshin Impact 5.3! This guide provides a straightforward approach to completing all five beetle battles.

Entry Requirements:

  • Adventure Rank 20 or higher.
  • Completion of the Mondstadt Archon Quest Prologue. Completing Xianyun's Story Quest "Grus Serena Chapter" adds context but isn't mandatory.

Gameplay Mechanics:

This event involves piloting an Onikabuto beetle in simulated battles within a Teapot at Mt. Aocang. Controls are simple: Forward, Backward, and Jump. Stamina management is key, as movement and attacks consume it. Master the timing of Piercing Strikes (hold attack button) for maximum damage.

Battle Strategies:

Each of the five stages presents unique opponents:

  1. Basic Hilichurl: Repeated head attacks are effective. Watch for ground markings indicating attack zones.
  2. Hilichurl Berserker with Pyro Slime: Target the head and the Pyro Slime, especially when it's preparing to throw it.
  3. Pyro Abyss Mage: Interrupt its incantations, then attack. Dodge fireballs and flame pillars.
  4. Cryo Abyss Mage: Employ the same strategy as the Pyro Abyss Mage.
  5. Stonehide Lawachurl: Quick attacks are crucial. A Geo Slime will appear; use a Piercing Strike for significant damage.
