Genshin Update: Immerse in Shuyu's Beetle Brawl Festivity

Dive into Genshin Impact's Shuyu's Baffling Beetle Battle Bowl! This limited-time event in Version 5.3 challenges you to beetle-battling glory. This guide will help you conquer all five battles with ease.

Entry Requirements:

To participate, you'll need:

• Adventure Rank 20 or higher.
• Completion of the Mondstadt Archon Quest Prologue. Completing Xianyun's Story Quest "Grus Serena Chapter" adds context to the event's narrative, as Shuyu features prominently.

Gameplay Mechanics:

The event's premise is simple: pilot an Onikabuto beetle in simulated battles within your Serenitea Pot at Mt. Aocang against various enemies. Control is intuitive, using Forward, Backward, and Jump. Mastering timing and stamina management is key, as movement and attacks consume stamina. Powerful Piercing Strikes require holding the attack button.

Battle Strategies:

Here's a breakdown of each stage's opponent and recommended tactics:

• Stage 1: A basic Hilichurl. Focus attacks on its head, dodging its predictable attacks.
• Stage 2: A Hilichurl Berserker with a Pyro Slime. Target the Berserker's head; the Pyro Slime is also a vulnerable point, especially during its attack wind-up.
• Stage 3: A Pyro Abyss Mage. Interrupt its fire spell casting, then unleash a flurry of attacks.
• Stage 4: A Cryo Abyss Mage. Employ the same strategy as with the Pyro Abyss Mage.
• Stage 5: A Stonehide Lawachurl. Be swift and evade its attacks. A Geo Slime will appear; use a Piercing Strike for maximum damage.

Difficulty Selection & Co-op:

Choose the "Focused Fight" (two-star) difficulty for optimal Primogem rewards (30-20 per stage). "Utmost Might" (three-star) unlocks after completing "Focused Fight," offering Mora and Enhancement Ores but no Primogems. Utilize Piercing Strikes strategically. Consult the "Dossier on Opponent" for enemy attack patterns. Team up with other players via the co-op "Match" function.

Rewards:

Complete all challenges on "Focused Fight" for a substantial Primogem haul. Additional rewards include Hero's Wit, Sanctifying Unction, Mora, and Mystic Enhancement Ore. "Utmost Might" difficulty yields more Mora and Enhancement Ores.

Don't miss out! The Shuyu's Baffling Beetle Battle Bowl concludes on January 13, 2025, at 03:59 server time. Get those Primogems!
