Conquering 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 boss fight requires strategic planning and a well-equipped team. This guide details how to locate and defeat this powerful dragon.

Locating the Lord of Eroded Primal Fire

The Lord of Eroded Primal Fire resides within 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 utilizing 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.

Destroying the Pillars

While possible with other characters, Natlan characters wielding Nightsoul Blessings drastically reduce the time required to shatter the Pillars. This prevents the devastating Eroded Meteor attack. Even with swift destruction, the meteor animation might initiate. Immediately equip a shield and switch to a dedicated healer to mitigate the substantial Corrosion damage. Healers like Furina, Kokomi, Kuki, Barbara, or Bennett are highly recommended.

Dodging Attacks and Positioning

The dragon's attacks are unpredictable and swift. When the battlefield is reduced, stay close to the dragon and attack from underneath while maintaining constant healing due to the Eroded Dragon Breath's Corrosion effect. This attack inflicts Pyro and Erosion DMG; shields and healing are crucial for survival. If overwhelmed, retreat to the area near the dragon's hands, which are unaffected by the breath attack. Consistent healing is paramount to survive the frequent sword slashes and Erosion damage.

Cooperative Mode

Co-op mode offers significant advantages, particularly during the Pillar phase. Utilize the "Match" button to team up with other players possessing Nightsoul Blessing characters for a smoother experience. While the fight is single-phased, its length demands careful strategy and teamwork.
