Genshin: Guide to Defeating Lord of Primal Fire

Conquer the Lord of Eroded Primal Fire in Genshin Impact: A Comprehensive Guide

Genshin Impact's Natlan Archon Quest introduces a formidable foe: the Lord of Eroded Primal Fire. This challenging weekly boss fight requires strategic planning and a well-equipped team. This guide provides a detailed walkthrough to help you overcome this fiery dragon.

Locating the Lord of Eroded Primal Fire

The Lord of Eroded Primal Fire resides in the Stone Stele Records domain, situated south of the Statue of Seven near the Masters of the Night-Wind tribe. Access requires completion of the Archon Quest's final chapter, "When All Becomes A Monument," or using the Quick Challenge option in the Adventurer's Handbook. Defeating the boss yields valuable rewards using 30 Original Resin.

Strategies for Victory

Success hinges on utilizing Natlan characters like Mavuika, Kinich, Citlali, Mualani, etc., who significantly expedite the fight. The boss summons three pillars and three Tenebrous Mimiflora.

Efficient Pillar Destruction

While other characters can destroy the pillars, Natlan characters wielding Nightsoul Blessings drastically reduce the time required. Swift destruction prevents the devastating Eroded Meteor attack. Even with speed, the meteor might initiate; immediately shield and switch to a healer to mitigate the substantial corrosion damage. Healers like Furina, Kokomi, Kuki, Barbara, or Bennett are invaluable here.

Dodging and Positioning

The dragon's unpredictable attacks demand skillful dodging. During its smoke phase, maintaining awareness is crucial. Its sword slashes and smashes significantly reduce the battlefield. When this happens, consider staying close and attacking from underneath while prioritizing defense. The Eroded Dragon Breath attack inflicts Pyro and Erosion DMG; shields and consistent healing are essential. Staying near its hands avoids the breath's full impact.

Cooperative Gameplay

Co-op mode offers significant advantages, especially during the pillar phase. The "Match" button facilitates teaming up with other players for a smoother experience.

While this boss fight is lengthy and demanding, strategic team composition, skillful dodging, and potentially cooperative play significantly increase your chances of success. Remember, a strong healer is indispensable for survival.
