As the Natlan Archon Quest in Genshin Impact nears its conclusion, the game's lore unveils intriguing secrets, and its combat system evolves in exciting ways. Each nation in Genshin Impact introduces two weekly bosses, and the Lord of Eroded Primal Fire stands out as particularly formidable, perhaps even more so than its counterparts. This colossal dual-sworded Dragon, a symbol of the ancient ruler of Natlan, has been transformed by Gosoythoth into a terrifying force. The influence of the Abyss is evident, reminiscent of the Riftwolves from Inazuma, with similar mechanics involving the Corrosion effect. While challenging, this battle is certainly conquerable. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to defeat the Lord of Eroded Primal Fire in Genshin Impact.

Where To Find The Lord Of Eroded Primal Fire In Genshin Impact

The Lord of Eroded Primal Fire awaits at the Stone Stele Records domain, located just south of the Statue of Seven near the Masters of the Night-Wind tribe. This domain is within a shrine commemorating the fallen from the Natlan battle. Upon entering, players can claim the usual rewards using 30 Original Resin for the first three weekly boss battles.

To unlock this boss and access the domain freely, players must complete the final chapter of the Archon Quest: When All Becomes A Monument. Alternatively, for those who prefer to bypass the story, the Quick Challenge option in the Adventurer’s Handbook provides another entry method.

How To Beat The Lord Of Eroded Primal Fire In Genshin Impact

Successfully defeating the Lord of Eroded Primal Fire often hinges on utilizing characters from Natlan, such as Mavuika, Kinich, Citlali, Mualani, and others. Although the Dragon remains relatively stationary for parts of the fight, it will eventually summon three Pillars and three Tenebrous Mimiflora, which are more easily defeated with characters wielding Nightsoul Blessings.

Make Sure To Destroy The Three Pillars With Nightsoul Blessing

While it's possible to use other characters to destroy the summoned Pillars, doing so will take significantly longer. Characters like Mavuika, Citlali, Kinich, or Kachina can swiftly break the shields, preventing the Dragon's devastating Eroded Meteor strike. Destroying the pillars will temporarily immobilize the Dragon for about 10 seconds, providing a crucial window to deal damage.

However, timing is critical; if the pillars aren't destroyed quickly enough (depending on the Natlan character used), the meteor animation will begin. At this point, ensure you have your shield equipped and switch to your healer. Consistent healing from characters like Furina, Kokomi, Kuki, Barbara, or Bennett is vital to survive the corrosion effect that can penetrate even through shields. Without shielding, the corrosion could lead to a one-hit kill even at full HP.

Try Your Best To Dodge Or Stay Underneath The Dragon

Navigating the Lord of Eroded Primal Fire's unpredictable attacks can be challenging. During the fight, the Dragon may transform into smoke and move erratically around the arena, complicating anticipation of its next move. Its primary attacks, sword slashes and smashes, can drastically alter the battlefield, reducing navigable space and complicating evasion.

If the battle reaches this stage, staying close to the Dragon and attacking from underneath can be effective, though caution is still necessary due to the corrosion effect from its Eroded Dragon Breath attack. This attack involves the Dragon impaling the ground with both swords, causing Pyro and Erosion damage. To mitigate this, maintain a strong shield and constant healing. If the attack becomes overwhelming, position yourself near its hands, as the Dragon Breath does not extend there. Immediate healing after any sword slashes is crucial to counteract the Erosion effect.

A healer is indispensable for this fight, so ensure you bring a reliable one.

Co-Op Mode and Matching

Whether you have Natlan characters or not, Co-Op Mode can significantly ease the battle, especially during the Pillar phase. Simply select the 'Match' button upon entering the Domain to join another player's world and tackle the boss together.

Fortunately, this fight does not involve multiple phases like some previous Weekly Bosses, but it still requires a substantial amount of time and strategy to overcome.
