Genshin Impact: Conquering the Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker

This guide focuses on defeating the Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker, a world boss crucial for ascending Citlali in Genshin Impact. This boss is uniquely tied to the Natlan storyline and presents a specific challenge.

Locating the Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker

The boss resides in a cave conveniently located south of the Masters of the Night-Wind tribe. Teleport to the waypoint indicated (see map below), then glide down and to the left. You'll find a cave entrance leading to the boss and a nearby teleport waypoint.

Defeating the Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker

The Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker's unique mechanic involves summoning Cryo clones. The key to victory lies in swiftly eliminating these clones using Pyro attacks. Successfully defeating the clones immobilizes the boss, creating an opportunity for significant damage. If you fail to eliminate them quickly, the boss will resume its attacks. Agile dodging is essential.

Strategic Tips and Tricks

Consider using Natlan characters like Ororon or Citlali. Their charged attacks can temporarily freeze the Cryo clones, simplifying the process of eliminating them. Remember to prioritize swift Pyro attacks on each clone.

Optimal Character Selection

Pyro characters are essential for this fight. Four-star options like Xiangling, Thoma, Yanfei, or Bennett are highly effective. Including a shielder is also recommended due to the boss's rapid and unpredictable attacks. This mitigates damage and allows for more focused offensive actions.

In summary, mastering the Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker fight requires a strategic approach combining Pyro damage, swift clone elimination, and effective dodging. The right team composition and understanding of the boss's mechanics will ensure a successful encounter.
