Conquer Shuyu's Baffling Beetle Battle Bowl in Genshin Impact: A Comprehensive Guide

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 completing all five battles.

Event Requirements:

  • Adventure Rank 20 or higher.
  • Completion of 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 a Teapot at Mt. Aocang against various enemies. Controls are simple: Forward, Backward, and Jump. Stamina management is key, as movement and attacks consume stamina. Utilize Piercing Strikes (hold attack button) for powerful attacks.

Battle Strategies:

The five stages present unique challenges:

  1. Staff Master (Basic Horizontal Sweeps): A Hilichurl; repeatedly target its head, dodging attacks indicated by ground markings.
  2. Staff Master (Torch Wielder): A Hilichurl Berserker with a Pyro Slime; focus attacks on its head and the Pyro Slime, particularly when it prepares to throw it.
  3. Mumbly-Bumbly Red-Hot Mage: A Pyro Abyss Mage; interrupt its spellcasting, then attack.
  4. Bouncy, Energetic Cryo Mage: A Cryo Abyss Mage; employ the same strategy as the Pyro Abyss Mage.
  5. Mini Mountain: A Stonehide Lawachurl; attack swiftly, dodging its attacks. A Geo Slime will appear; use a Piercing Strike for maximum damage.
