Author : Dylan Update : Mar 01,2025

Conquer Shuyu's Baffling Beetle Battle Bowl in Genshin Impact 5.3! This guide provides a straightforward approach to victory in this limited-time beetle battling event.

Event Prerequisites:

To participate, ensure you've reached Adventure Rank 20 and completed the Mondstadt Archon Quest Prologue. While not mandatory, completing Xianyun's Story Quest, "Grus Serena Chapter," adds context and introduces Shuyu.

Gameplay Mechanics:

The event unfolds within a Teapot simulation at Mt. Aocang. You'll command an Onikabuto beetle against various enemies using simple controls: Forward, Backward, and Jump. Mastering timing and stamina management is key, as movement and attacks consume stamina. Remember to utilize Piercing Strikes (hold attack) for increased damage.

Stage-Specific Strategies:

The five stages present unique challenges:

  1. Staff Master (Basic Hilichurl): Repeated headshots are effective. Observe ground markings to anticipate attacks.
  2. Torch-Wielding Berserker: Target the Hilichurl's head or the Pyro Slime it carries, particularly when preparing to throw it.
  3. Pyro Abyss Mage: Interrupt its incantations, then unleash a flurry of attacks. Dodge its fireballs and flame pillars.
  4. Cryo Abyss Mage: Employ the same strategy as the Pyro Abyss Mage.
  5. Stonehide Lawachurl: Swift attacks are crucial. A Geo Slime will appear; use a Piercing Strike for optimal damage.
