Genshin Impact: Conquer Beetle Bowl with Shuyu's Guide

Author:Kristen Update:Jan 20,2025

Dive into Genshin Impact's Shuyu's Baffling Beetle Battle Bowl! This limited-time event in Version 5.3 challenges you to beetle-battling glory. Conquer five unique encounters for bountiful rewards. This guide provides a straightforward path to victory.

Entry Requirements:

To join the fray, you'll need:

  • Adventure Rank 20 or higher.
  • Completion of 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 is simple: control your Onikabuto beetle in simulated battles within your Serenitea Pot at Mt. Aocang. Use basic controls – Forward, Backward, and Jump – but master timing and stamina management. Stamina is consumed with movement, especially during sustained dashes or powerful Piercing Strikes (hold the attack button).

Stage-by-Stage Strategies:

Each of the five stages presents a unique opponent:

  1. Staff Master (Basic Hilichurl): Repeated headshots are key. Observe ground markings to anticipate attacks and dodge effectively.
  2. Torch-Wielding Berserker (Hilichurl Berserker with Pyro Slime): Target its head; the Pyro Slime is a vulnerable point, especially during its throwing animation.
  3. Pyro Abyss Mage: Interrupt its incantations to prevent attacks. Hit repeatedly after disruption.
  4. Cryo Abyss Mage: Employ the same strategy as the Pyro Abyss Mage.
  5. Stonehide Lawachurl: Prioritize speed and evasion. Persistent attacks will summon a Geo Slime; use a Piercing Strike for maximum damage.
