Genshin Impact: New Bug Lets Players Destroy Bosses with Devastating Attacks

by Sarah Feb 23,2025

Genshin Impact players eagerly awaiting the 5.4 update can currently exploit a surprising tactic to effortlessly defeat even the toughest bosses. This unexpected strategy utilizes the Hydro Traveler, often considered a weak DPS character, to inflict massive damage.

The method is deceptively simple. By strategically placing a large number of Xiao Lanterns (obtained during the Lantern Rite Festival) near a boss, and then activating the Hydro Traveler's Elemental Burst, players can dramatically reduce the boss's health. The burst's AoE damage is significantly amplified by interacting with the lanterns; hundreds of lanterns can result in damage reaching millions.

While this exploit is likely to be patched in a future update, it currently provides a remarkably easy way to conquer challenging boss encounters.
