Genshin Impact: Essential Guide to Shuyu's Beetle Bowl Event

by Aiden Feb 02,2025

Conquer the Shuyu's Baffling Beetle Battle Bowl in Genshin Impact 5.3! This guide provides a straightforward approach to mastering this limited-time beetle battling event.

Event Prerequisites:

To participate, 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" enhances the event's narrative context, as Shuyu features prominently.

Gameplay Mechanics:

The event involves controlling an Onikabuto beetle in simulated battles within your Serenitea Pot at Mt. Aocang. Controls are simple: Forward, Backward, and Jump. Mastering stamina management is key, as movement and attacks consume stamina. Utilize Piercing Strikes (by holding the attack button) for enhanced damage.

Stage-Specific Strategies:

The five stages present unique challenges:

  1. Staff Master (Basic Horizontal Sweeps): A straightforward Hilichurl; focus on head attacks, dodging ground markings indicating attacks.
  2. Staff Master (Torch Wielder): A Hilichurl Berserker with a Pyro Slime. Target the head and the Pyro Slime, particularly when it's preparing to throw it.
  3. Pyro Abyss Mage: More challenging; interrupt its fire spellcasting, then attack.
  4. Cryo Abyss Mage: Similar strategy to the Pyro Abyss Mage.
  5. Stonehide Lawachurl: A fast-paced battle; attack quickly, watching for attacks. A Geo Slime appears; use a Piercing Strike for optimal damage.
