Genshin Impact Guide: Defeat Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker

Summary

• Citlali is the sole character requiring materials from the Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker Lady for ascension.
• Locate the boss by teleporting to the waypoint south of the Masters of the Night-Wind tribe and gliding down.
• Utilize Pyro characters to eliminate the boss's Cryo clones; a shield character is recommended for efficient combat.

With Natlan's storyline nearing its conclusion, Genshin Impact introduces new bosses tied to Version 5.3 characters Mavuika and Citlali. Currently, only Citlali necessitates materials dropped by the Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker Lady, a world boss yielding the Talisman of the Enigmatic Land, the key ascension material. Characters typically require 48 of this material; this guide details how to locate and defeat this boss effectively.

Locating the Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker

The Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker is conveniently located south of the Masters of the Night-Wind tribe. Teleporting to the nearby waypoint simplifies access. Simply glide down and to the left from the cliff; a cave entrance will be visible. The underground teleport waypoint is adjacent to the boss.

Defeating the Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker

This boss presents a unique challenge: Cryo clone creation. Approximately six clones appear, requiring swift elimination within a time limit. These clones necessitate rapid Pyro attacks while simultaneously dodging the boss's attacks.

Successful elimination of the clones immobilizes the boss, creating an opening for concentrated attacks. Failure to eliminate the clones quickly returns the boss to its previous state, demanding continued dodging and strategic attacks.

Tips and Tricks for Defeating the Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker

Consider deploying Natlan characters from the Masters of the Night-Wind tribe, such as Ororon and Citlali. Their charged attacks can freeze the Cryo clones, simplifying their defeat. Remember to prioritize swift Pyro attacks.

Optimal Character Selection

Pyro characters are highly recommended for efficient combat. Four-star options like Xiangling, Thoma, and Bennett are viable alternatives to five-star characters.

A shield character is also beneficial due to the boss's rapid and unpredictable attacks, making dodging challenging.
