As Genshin Impact enthusiasts eagerly await the arrival of the 5.4 update in just a week, the current version has unveiled a surprising exploit that allows players to swiftly defeat bosses with massive health pools. Interestingly, this method involves the Hydro Traveler, a character often regarded as one of the least effective in terms of damage per second (DPS).
The trick behind this exploit is refreshingly straightforward, even for those of us who aren't delving into the game's intricate code. It revolves around the Hydro Traveler's Elemental Burst and the Xiao Lanterns available during the Lantern Rite Festival. Here's how it works: strategically place a specific number of Xiao Lanterns around a boss, unleash your Hydro Traveler's Elemental Burst, and watch as the boss's health bar dramatically diminishes.
The reason for this dramatic effect lies in the Elemental Burst's ability to deal additional area of effect (AoE) damage when interacting with objects. With a hundred lanterns placed, the damage can skyrocket into the millions, making short work of even the toughest bosses.
While it's highly probable that this exploit will be addressed and nerfed in future updates, for now, Genshin Impact offers players a golden window to effortlessly conquer challenging boss fights. Take advantage of this opportunity while it lasts!
