It is recommended to use an Electro main DPS (preferably a single-target unit) for defeating the Jadeplume Terrorshroom. Electro characters can quickly fill up the boss’ gauge, following which it will be temporarily stunned. Use this window to dish out as much damage as you can.


Act 6: Lord of the Hidden Depths: Whisperer of Nightmares

The Lord of the Hidden Depths: Whisperer of Nightmares boss deploys a special shield while also summoning several Fishers at the beginning of the fight. Characters capable of triggering Lunar reactions are the best picks for quickly destroying the boss’ shield.

Alternatively, if you do not have Lunar reaction units available for this stage, you can also destroy its shield by defeating all of the summoned minions. Once the shield breaks, the boss gets temporarily paralyzed, giving you a wide window to dish out maximum damage.


Act 8: Battle-Hardened Samachurl

In order to defeat the Battle-Hardened Samachurl (Churldric) boss, you will need Geo characters or Claymore units capable of dealing damage to the huge pot that the boss summons.

Focus on using Geo attacks or Claymore strikes to shatter the pot as quickly as possible. Once you destroy the pot, the Battle-Hardened Samachurl will take heavy damage and enter a weakened state, allowing your main DPS to finish it off.


Act 10: Radiant Moonfly

Since the Radiant Moonfly boss applies a debuff to your characters that renders them unable to deal CRIT DMG unless they are at full health, you will need a strong healer for this fight.

This boss does not require any specific Elemental reactions, so you can use any combination of characters in your current pool to clear this stage.

For the first Arcana Challenge, Consecrated Beasts will spawn on the field one by one, and you will need to survive and defeat them before the countdown ends. This stage features a debuff that periodically unleashes Geo explosions on the field, dealing continuous damage to your active character.

Make sure to bring along a strong shielder (ideally a Geo shielder like Zhongli or Noelle) who can shield your team as the explosions get progressively harder through the fight.


Arcana Challenge II

The second Arcana Challenge features the Battle-Hardened Biting-Cold Wayob Manifestation (Natlan Local Legend). During this fight, an allied Protection Spirit will occasionally appear on the field to assist you.

Make sure to heal this Protection Spirit in order to help it trigger coordinated attacks against the boss. It is recommended to use at least two healers in your party for this challenge.
