Behold! Unravel the Enigma of Genshin Impact's Baffling Beetle Battle Bowl

Author:Kristen Update:Jan 25,2025

Conquer the Shuyu's Baffling Beetle Battle Bowl in Genshin Impact 5.3! This limited-time event challenges you to beetle battles. This guide provides a straightforward approach to victory in all five encounters.

Event Requirements:

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

Gameplay Mechanics:

The event utilizes a simplified beetle battle system within your Serenitea Pot on Mt. Aocang. Control your Onikabuto using forward, backward, and jump actions. Master timing and stamina management, as movement and attacks consume stamina. Stronger attacks, like Piercing Strikes (hold attack button), require more stamina.

Stage Strategies:

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

  1. "Staff Master Who Only Uses Basic Horizontal Sweeps": A standard Hilichurl. Focus attacks on its head, dodging its predictable sweeps indicated by ground markings.

  2. "Staff Master Who Waves a Torch About Non-Stop": A Hilichurl Berserker with a Pyro Slime. Target its head; the Pyro Slime is also a vulnerable point, especially during its throw animation.

  3. "Mumbly-Bumbly Red-Hot Mage": A Pyro Abyss Mage. Interrupt its fire spell casting, then unleash a flurry of attacks.

  4. "Bouncy, Energetic Mage Who’s Actually Freezing Cold": A Cryo Abyss Mage. Employ the same strategy as with the Pyro Abyss Mage.

  5. "Big Guy Said to be Solid as a Mini Mountain": A Stonehide Lawachurl. Attack swiftly, dodging its attacks. A Geo Slime will appear; use a Piercing Strike for maximum damage.
