Anyway, you'll have to fight her to get Yae Miko's elevation materials. But obviously, the task does not look easy, we are talking about the Archon Electro! In this complete guide, we reveal how to beat the boss Raiden in Genshin Impact.

How to unlock the weekly boss Magatsu Mitake Narukami no Mikoto?

Magatsu Mitake Narukami no Mikoto, the new weekly boss of Genshin Impact, is actually a puppet created by the real Raiden to lead Inazuma into eternity. Their points of view have ended up diverging...

To take on Raiden Shogun, you must have an adventure level of at least 40 and have completed the Archon quest Chapter 2 - Act 3 " Omnipresence Over Mortals " as well as the two Raiden story quests.

You can then access the " End of the Oneiric Euthymia " dungeon by passing through the torii gate below the sacred cherry tree at Narukami Temple in Inazuma.

What are the Boss Raiden's loots in Genshin Impact ?

Defeating Magatsu Mitake Narukami no Mikoto gives you a chance to get your hands on several loots:

• Vajrada Amethyst Sliver, Fragment, Chunk and Gemstone ;
• Artifacts;
• Weapons bases ;
• The Meaning of Aeons: This resource increases Yae Miko's abilities to level 10;
• Mudra of the Malefic General: This upgrade material is for Ayato, which will be released in the 2.6 update of Genshin Impact along with the Chasm;
• Tears of the Calamitous God;
• Dream Solvent: The item is used to modify an enhancement material on the alchemy table.

The higher the level of the dungeon "End of the Oneiric Euthymia", the more rewards you will get. You can only collect them once a week.

What is the strategy for overcoming Raiden Shogun ?

Boss Raiden is quite demanding and will knock out your active character in one hit if you don't dodge his attacks. The Raiden Shogun has two different forms during the fight.

Magatsu Mitake Narukami no Mikoto's single form attacks

In her normal form, Raiden uses short-range Electro attack combos and area attacks. She can :

• Teleport on you to inflict quick attacks. In this case, dodge and run to avoid taking heavy damage;
• Clone yourself into 4 entities, each one sending blade attacks. The trick is to hit the Raiden whose hit is in the shape of a cross. It will then be stunned, allowing you to attack it;
• Summon Elemental Shards: Raiden Shogun drops Electro spikes all over the area. As soon as you see her raise her blade to the sky, prepare to dodge by avoiding the purple circles on the ground.

The attacks of the original form of the boss Raiden

Determined not to make things easy for you, the boss Raiden changes form, deploying Electro arms and a gigantic blade. She also generates an Electro shield, which makes her much more resistant. It is, however, susceptible to Cryo and Pyro attacks.

As soon as you see Raiden straighten her sword, move quickly so that you are not in the impact zone. She can also perform a circular attack.

In addition to this, Narukami no Mikoto will :

• Drain your energy continuously;
• Bring down three Electro spikes, which generate waves of energy. Move away and jump over them until they stop;

• Materialise Electro Eyes. As soon as you see them, destroy them to weaken Raiden;
• Throw a shadow that is chasing you. Pass over a tall character to get as far away as possible. Ayaka's dash will make it easier for you;
• Create two hands to encircle you. To avoid being crushed, sprint on impact;
• Narukami the Destroyer 's Ultimate Attack: She disappears from the arena to perform an attack that will knock you out in one hit. In order to escape, immediately hit the Electro ball that has just appeared to create a protective bubble. You'll go much faster with an Electro hero.

Which team to play against Raiden in Genshin Impact?

To be more resistant, we advise you to play a character capable of creating a shield, like Zhongli, Diona, Noelle or Thomas.

Secondly, even if the Raiden boss is an Electro boss, go for a hero of the same element. And it is precisely the Raiden Shogun who is the best candidate. With it, you will be able to generate energy and above all destroy the Electro ball of the weekly boss' ultimate attack more efficiently.

To attack, prefer ranged characters like Ganyu or Yoimiya. Ayaka is also a good choice because of his fast attacks and his handy dash to dodge. Avoid choosing a character that relies on his elemental rampage as Raiden constantly reduces your energy bar.

Finally, complete your team with a support that can heal or even boost you. Bennett is the best option here.
